O'DOWD TRAINED
 TOO FINE FOR
 BRETON BOUT

-.ewark. Aug. 25-Those who saw Mike O'DOwd's drawn and pinched face at the First Regiment Armory in Newark last Friday night and who were informed by Jee Humphries that the middleweight champion weighed 155 pounds at ringside are puzzled to account for his action in wasting him. self to that low poundage. Under the conditions of the match with Britton O'Dowd was required to make 15S pounds ringside, which would have been a comparatively easy task and would have left him in possession of his strength. But for some inscruta ble reason O'Dowd wished to show the public that he could make a low weight, with the result that he re- duced his fighting vigor to a point where he boxed the first two rounds with all the fury of an indisposed Alderney. Later on he recovered some of his stamina and made a good showing, but not up to his us ual form.
 The fact that O'Dowd weighed 1855 pounds ringside indicates that he scaled considerably. less in the after noon, probably 152 pounds, and it is surprising the man was able to put up any kind of a bout. The reduc- ton of the middleweight to so low a figure when his normal fighting weight is 16O pounds may have been interesting to those who consider weight the most important part of pugilism, but the performance has done the middIeweight champion no special good and unquestionably re- duced his fighting ability by 25 per cent in his contest with Rritton.

 The straight on the Wilde-Moore battle, Leon Errol, the famous stage drunk" who is now in England, writes his favorite sport editor as follows:
 Just have got to write you an angle of the Pal MOore-Jimmy Wilde fight that will never appear in Ameri- can papers via the columns of the English press.
 The boys over here who backed Moore were simply rolled for their money. The boys should have known better than to place any money up at all, considering the fact that the referee who officiated at the famous Ritchie-Welsh fight was in the ring. Pal handed Jimmy a broken nose, a cut lip. and, in short, had him coy cred with blood from head to foot, yet the decision was given against him. Pal didn't have a scratch. The referee said something about Pal us ing an open glove and warned him during the progress of the fight, but you know the story, Tad, so what's the Use of commenting further.
 Intend to stock up a nfeboat on the vessel I shall sail home on so that I can anchor it three miles out from the Statue of Liberty and have a midnight party for my pals. Are you a swimmer?
 Hope all is well with you, and re- member me to the gang. As they say over here. Cherio ole bean and That's That. Sincerely,

Nothing Like Plain Hitro.P Phosphate
to Put on Firm, Healthy Flesh and
to Increase Strength, vigor
and Nerve Force.

Judging from the countless preparations
and treatments which are continually be-
Ing advertised for the purpose of making
thin people fleshy. developing arms, neck
and bust. and replacing ugly hollows and
and beauty, there are evidently thousands
OF men and women who keenly feel their
excessive thinness.
Thinness and weakness are often due
to starved nerves Our bodies need more
phosphate than Is contained in modern
foods Physicians claim there Is nothing
that will supply this deficiency so we'll as
the organic phosphate known among drug.
gists as bitro-phosphate, which is mex.
pensive and Is sold by most all druggists
under guarantee of satisfaction or money
back. By feeding the nerves directly and
by supplying the body cells with the nee.
essary phosphoric food elements bitro-
phosphate should produce a welcome
transformation in the appearances; the I'M
crease in weight frequently being aston

Increase in weight also carries with It
e. general Improvement in the health.
Nervousness. sleeplessness and lack Of
excessive thinness. should disappear dull
eyes become bright and pale cheeks glow
with the bloom Of perfect health.
CAUTION: - Although bitro- phosphate
is unsurpassed for relieving nervousness,
s!eeplessness and general weakness, It
should not. owing to its tendency to I'M
crease weight. be used by anyone who
does not desire to put on flesh.
