day afternoon. The fight was for $500

Robinson. not wishing to disclose his
real identity, fought under the name or
Jack Kelly, of Detroit.
The fight was the elimination of long
standing enmity between the men
who fought with all the ferocity of en-
ragged animals. The battle lasted five
rounds. Robson won with terrific
blow over the heart that sent his ad-
yersary to the ropes, over which he fell
backwards and hung as if lifeless
While the referee slowly counted 10.

ally regained consciousness. The fight
was Witnessed by only 25 spectators

TELLS BY
THEIR SLEEP

Il can tell by my little
ones sleep when a cold IS
coming on" said a mother
when speaking of the advance
symptoms of coldsin children.
/" They toss about, are rest
less, their breathing is heavy
and there are symptoms of
night sweats. The next morn
ing l start with SCOTS Emul-
sion. The chances are that
in a day or two they are all
over it. Their rest is again
peaceful and the breathing
normal"
Here's a suggestion for
all mothers. SCOTS Emul-
sion always has been almost
magical in its action when
used as the ounce of preven-
ton. Nothing seems to over
come child weakness quite so
effectively and quickly as
SCOTS Emulsion.

Some Suggestions About MenGing,
Repairing, Shrinking Trimming for
Wash Dresses-Bathing Suit.

The difficulty in mending large holes
in fine old linen is found in keeping fiat
and not drawing it up This is much
more esaily accomplished if a piece
OF fine tulle is basted over the hole and
the darn then made in the meshes of
It. The best thread for darning is that
pulled or drawn from another piece of
linen This will be found preferable to
FAX, as it is much more even.
When the skirtband or pocket hole
keeps wearing out and much strain is
put on the band, piece OF leather cut
from an old glove should be stitched
down the back of the placket ana to
the inside of the waistband. This. will
keep il firm and make good fotfnda-
ton tor sewing on hooks and eyes
