Optic Scar
IsDempsey's
Big Bugbear
Cut Over Right Eye May
Handicap Challenger in
July 4 Battle
BY FRED TURBYvILLE
n. Il. A. Fight Bureau

TOLEDO, o.. July At is only a
scar today. but all hands in the train
ing camps have been warned to keep
hands of.
Speaking OF the right eye OF Jack
Dempsey and the long white car
that takes the course OF his eyebrow.
1t is noticeable to any one who can
get near enough. The eyebrow has
been mostly shaved of and the scar
shows white and prominently against
Jacks sunburned skin.
The cut was made by the Jamaica
Kid. using a twisting, skin.tearing
punch in a training session. That
was many days ago. but IL put Jack
out OF the ring for a couple OF weeks.
II is all healed up now. but the skin
is not as strong as 1t was. II can be
easily opened with another Of these
twisting blows, cross-wise or travel
ing upward.
Jacks Bugbear
II is a bugbear in the Dempsey
camp. Jess Willard knows all about
1t and no doubt he'll be plugging
away at that very spot in the early
rounds July 4th.
II he succeeds in opening up the
old wound Dempsey will bleed. The
blood will run into his eye and blind
him. That Is a terrible handicap for
fighter to encounter right at the
start of a championship bout.
Wise old Jimmy DeForrest, Demp'
sey's trainer, kept Jack out OF the
ring many days after the wound had
healed. He realized the danger OF the
cut and believed It best to sacrifice
some days of ring work.
Jack was impatient to work. He
is like a fighting bulldog. When he
scents action he wants some of IT.
and he gloomed over the fact that the
&crowds we're taking in the Willard
workouts every afternoon.
DeForrest Rules
But DeForrest knows best, and
what he says goes. Jack chafed a
/ little, but he had to mind. The cut
healed. but TO say that the spot is as
good as ever is too optimistic for the
most optimistic OF the Dempsey sta r.
They know that bad eye is a handi
cap.
1T win be touchy spot with Jack
and no doubt he'll be guarding il
carefully at all times. This may leave
other spots open to the ham-like fists
| Of the champion. and If the champion
ever connects solidly II may mean an
ether challenger brushed aside.

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect Ii
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kiimer's Swamp Root is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview of the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is so
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
tons are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. 1t is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DIR.

OF more than six hundred returned

per cent are put down as just about
