the best of it.
The sporting public would now
like to see Gardner meet some one
of the topnotchers. He is too heavy
for Britt, but just about right for
Joe Cans.
AL Herford insists Cans can make
1873 pounds and is entitled to fight
Britt. but it has been proven that
Joe can not make the lightweight
mark and retain his strength
In a fight with Gardner Joe would
be able to fix the weight at 1856
pounds or heavier. And what battle
it would make! Both are experts in
leading and blocking, and haye had a
world of experience.
The Value of Footwork.
Footwork is often overlooked by
men preparing for a battle. Most
fighters give their attention to ham
ding their hands and the upper part
of the body, especially the head.
To the ordinary observer, foot
work appears to play little part in
a fighters progress. And, very often,
the lower limbs are entirely ignored
in training.

referred to without reference to that
pair of legs he possesses? He knows
how to use them as well as his
brawny arms, Not many pugilists

What Russian Authors Earned.

1t is the custom for Russian writer's
of established reputation to sell their
entire copyrights to the publishers
more frequently than English authors
do. Shortly before his death, Turgen-
left disposed of the copyright of all
his works to publisher for $4,000.
The different sums for which the pro-
ductions Of some of the best known
Russian authors Of the old school have
been sold are given as follows by the
informant. Those Of Gogol were dis
posed of for $4,000; Puschkln's and
Gontcharoff's each realized about e3..

REDEEM YOUR PAST FAILURES
Never Yet Has Man Fallen to Where
He Can Not Rise.

You may say that you have failed
too often. that there is no use in try
ing, that it is impossible for you to
succeed, and that you have fallen too
often even to attempt to get on your
feet again. Nonsense! There is no
failure for a man whose spirit is un-
conquered. No matter how late the
hour, or how many and repeated his
failures, success is still possi Bile. The
evolution of Scrooge, the miser, in the
closing years Of his life, from a hard,
narrow, beartless money-grubber,
whose soul was imprisoned in his shin
ing heap OF boarded gold, to a gen
erous, genial lover of his kind. is no
mere myth of Dickenss brain. Time
and again, in the history of our daily

The knowledge That Paws.

If you glance round at the work
Of some of our big men you will be
surprised to see how many have
made their reputation by doing one
small thing, but doing It well. If a
man gets to the front in the narrow
subject the world credits him with
knowledge of all the rest It is, how.
ever, even easier to acquire a large
knowledge than an advanced special
knowledge of one narrow subject. The
specially must not be too narrow,

knowledge is worth obtaining for its
