We may be impatient at the delay in
getting large bodies of our troops into
action against the enemy, and may be
inclined to complain of this, that or the
other official on that score; but we
know full well that on ourselves alone
rests the responsibility for keeping our
fighting men and our allies supplied
with food, and that we can blame no
body else if that responsibility is not
met. If the need in Europe is for wheat
and meat, it is our business to supply
the need. 1t will be supplied.

LIFE AND BATTLES OF
JOHN [. SULLIVAN

out money was suddenly enriched when
Sullivan heard of his circumstances.
Many wrote him for financial help and
never were refused, whether Sullivan
knew the writer or not. That was where
most of his money went. He earn
ed 100000 during the high tide Of his
popularity as champion, and added an
other similar amount after he had been
defeated.
When Sullivan finally agreed to meet
Kiirain he went into training with
great vigor. lie realized that he had
reached a time when only application
of the hardest sort would save him
from defeat, and he attempted TO effaeo
some of the results Of his alcohol adj
diction.
This battle with Kilrain came very
near going down in history as a near
pugilistic encounter, for the law was
beginning to frown more and more heav-
lily on a sport so brutal as fighting in
the days Of the London Prize ring
rules. II was with considerable difficulty
that the fighters and promoters OF he
bout finally found a place, where they
could slip away and be free from inter
ference.
The spot, however, was found, fin
ally, in Mississippi, but the fight fol-
lowers who assembled at New Orleans
before the bout didn't know where
they were going even when they clam
bored aboard trains and started for the
scene of the mill. The ride was long
aud hard, over the Queen and Crescent
railway, between rows Of state militia
who had been turned out in Louisiana

being staged in that state.

connected with the bout were turned out

Stop itching Eczema

Never mind how often you have tried
and failed, you can stop burning, itching
eczema quickly by applying a little zemo
furnished by any druggist for 35c. Extra
large bottle, $1.00. Healing begins the
moment zemo is applied. In a short time
usually every trace of eczema, letter,
pimples, rash, blackheads and similar
skin diseases will be removed.
For clearing the skin and making it
vigorously healthy, always use zemo, the
penetrating, antiseptic liquid. 1t is not a
greasy salve and it does not stain. When
others fail it is the one dependable treat
ment for skin troubles of all kinds.
