sou. and they probably mark the high
Water mark for receipts, so far as
actual money spent by the public is
concerned. The receipts for ,hese
D'ctures came to something like $780,
900, and as the promoter and two
principals were equally interested it
Cali readily be understood that de-
partment Of the game meant more to
, them than the actual fight itself. The
only fight to compare with Britt and
Nelson was the Jeffries-J Johnson bout
at Reno-the one that in reality caus-
ed the legislation in various cities and
the recent shutting off of transporta-
ton from State to State.
From the standpoint of the fight
ers, there was never more money
paid for this privilege, and as the
men who secured the right asay they
more than broke even, it is safe to
say the public spent a world of money
to watch the films.
1t was competition among the NOV
ing picture people that put up the
price. Jeffries received $66,666 for
his one-third interest; Johnson took
$4,000 for his third, and Jack Glea-
son sold his one-sixth for $33,323. That
made practically $4,000 paid for
five-sixths Of the pictures, Tex Rick
ard, the other promoter, retaining his
share.
As the fighters were given a purse
of $101,000 there is no need of point

Agitation came about chiefly be-
cause colored man won the cham
pionship and also because of the
prominence the match attained. A
storm of disapproval caused many
cities to enact ordinances that pro-
Inhibited absolutely the display of NOV
ing pictures of fights, and that in no
small way decreased the revenues.
Reno Fight Responsible. =. =.
There is no question but that this
same agitation has been responsible
for the recent work of the Congress
men. The report that johnson was
to fight Jim Flynn in New Mexico
was the signal for the introduction of
the bin, and 1t apparently met with
no opposition.
Save for that one isolated case,
there has been no big" money for
promoters and fighters during recent
years. IT,
The second Cans and Nelson fight
pictures returned a profit of about
$4,000 while the Ketchel and John
son pictures enriched their owners to
the extent of $4,000.
The last pictures taken in San
Francisco were of Moran and VOL
CAST The profit is said to have been
in the neighborhood Of $9000-no
great amount when all things. are con-
sidered. III
In spite of the sensational ending
of the Wolgast- Rivers match, it is not
probable that McCarey and Tom
Jones between them made more than
$4,000, and without that finish there
would have been sno demand for the
films. rE=,-s.s' - .,f
Granting that the commercial value
has fallen off, there is still an in
to take Photographic repro
auctions of the important mills of the
champions. Unquestionably men like
Wolgast and Johnson take that sort
of thing into consideration when sign
ing articles and accepting guarantees,
and just as surely their profits will be
cut down, for they are already de-
from the promoters as much
and often more than they can afford j
to give. /

(From Popular Medicine)
In beauty culture. as in the treat

Is to seek the removal Of causes,

fects. In the matter Of wrinkles, for
Instance, we know that the lines or
burrows are caused by the skin be-

skin then wrinkles" or says.
Naturally the proper thing to do is
TO tighten the skin--make it fit--then
there's no room for lines, wrinkles
and folds, andlno surplus skin to sag
or bag.
The best known formula for the
purpose is: Sasolite. o.. in l-2 pint
witch hazel. Use as a wash lotion.
The effect is tfuly remarkable, es-
pecially as results are immediate.
Ask the druggist for the powdered

NATIONAL
TUBERCULOSIS
. DAY ON APRIL Is

Sermons on the prevention Of con-
supmtion will be preached in thous-
ands OF churches on April 2Sth, which
the National Association for the Study
and Prevention of tuberculosis, ac-
cording to an announcement made TO-
day, has set aside as Tuberculosis day.
Last year out Of 100000 churches in
the United States. over $4,000 observed
tuberculosis Day, and millions of
churchgoers were told about the dis
case from the pulpit. This year will
he the third observation Of Tubercul-
osls Day. Plans are being made to
have the Gospel Of Health preached
more widely than ever before.
The movement will be pushed
through the 600 anti-tuberculosis as
sociations allied with the National As
sociation and through the boards OF
health wOmen's clubs, and other or
ganizations in hundreds OF cities and
towns throughout the country.
Through these various bodies the
churches will be reached and inter
ested 10 the tuberculosis campaign.
According to reports gathered by
the National Association in 1911, prac-
tically 10 per cent, Of all deaths in
church congregations are caused by
tuberculosis. In study OF $4,000
communicates of 725 churches in
which there were 1000 deaths in 1910
the death rate among these church
members was found to be PA for
every thousand communicates. This
is higher than the rate for the Regis
tration Area of the United States
which was go in 1910.
