Boxers Wife Protests
When His Adversary
lDraws Blood In Bout

1t is rather unusual for a woman to
be mixed up in any way in boxing
match, but MmG. Isabelle Til, wife Of
Paul Til. the French lightweight, has
been making name for herself in
Australia. Mrs. Til, who is clever
little F'renchwoman, attends all the
fights in which her Chubby, is en-.
gagged, and is always at the ringside TO
watch Paul's every movement. Dur.
ing the recent battle between Til and
Young Mccoy at Sydney the little
Irenchman received straight left ON
the nose and the clurot began to flow,
The little Frencbwomau could not
stand for this and rushed to the office
of the management and protested that
McCov WAS not fighting fair, but hit
ting in the clnches, which she said
would not be tolerated in France.
However, the rules were not trans.
gressed according to the referee. and
everything went along smoothly after
Paul had his face doused with the
sponge. 'It'was the first time / ever
saw blood on Paul IS face,'' said Mrs
Til, "and of course, thought matters
were worse than they really were She

Boxing Is the art Of hitting with

~ AN FRANCISCO. Oct. 1e.--There
~ Is talk now OF international con-
troll of boxing and II IS to laugh
when one notices the seriousness OF the
parties promulgating the idea Some
one In New York, who is evidently
piqued because the Partisan pusi-
1istic authorities refuse 10 pillory
Pupke when politely petitioned to
punish him, has brought UP a scheme
for forming a world wide bond so
that the penalty for offenders Of the
future Will stretch across the seven

How on earth can any movement
Of thai kind be made a success of

law admitting Of the carrying on Of
BOXING matches to the satisfaction
does not exist In any country In the
world, probably, and until such a law
obtains la every place where the
sport of the ring is fostered 1t Is folly
to talk of universal control.
New York is the instlgator Of the
new movement, md what can New
York offer its allies across the sceH?
New York has n state law and an
athletic commission. but it is not sure
OF the ground II stands on by any
means.
IN New Tork the bouts are limited
to ten rounds and that means
that boxers of a certain stamp
those with whom endurance ia chief
asset-have no business In New York.
New York does not permit Of de-
cisions being rendered. New York
has barred two worlds champions

\ MEDICINE AS GOOD
AS YOUR MONEY

Money Promptly Refunded if Dodson's
Liver-Tone Fails to Take Place OF
CaIomeI.
The E. C. Bruce drug store sells
Dodson's Liyer-Tone as perfect sub
stitute for calomel. If you try one
bottle and find that it is not just as
sure in it's action as calomel and at
same time gentler and without the
bad after-effects of calomel, please
call and get your money back. 1t
will be given you promptly. Dodson's
Liver-Tone is a vegetable liquid with
pleasant taste, that livens up the
liver, mildly but surely, instead of
whipping it into action as the strong
chemical calomel does. 1t is used by
both children and grown-ups for con-
stipation and inactive liver.
That is why the Bruce drug store is
willing to guarantee it absolutely, not
with another bottle, but with your
money back. Isn't medicine with a
guarantee like this worth a trial?
