The Knockout Blow.

The blow which knocked out Corbett
was revelation to the prize fighters.
From the earliest days of the ring the
Knockout blow was aimed for the jaw,
the temple or the jugular veal. Stomach
punches were thrown in to worry and
weary the fighter, but if a scientific man
had told one of the old fighters that the
most Vulnerable spot was the region of
the stomach, he'd have laughed at him
for an ignOramus. Dr. Pierce is bringing
home to the public parallel fact; that
the stomach is the most vulnerable organ
out of the prize ring as we'll as in it, We
protect our heads, thrOats, feet and lungs,
but the stomach we are utterly indiffer-
ent to, until disease finds the solar plexuS

you protect yourself in your most vulner-

who would have anything to say

copies of the finding. Mr.. Seymour
said
Our committee, I believe, has gone
over the matter fully and carefully
and our verdict is a right and proper
one. We took care to have it ap-
