Dear Tad-The movie game is my

stars look like tallow candles. My three
are George lavigne, Terry McGovern
and George Dixon.
What would they be worth to man
ager today? They were gold mines in
the days Of real fighters
My greatest fighter is Lavigne, a
real l3S-pound lightweight, a blue-eyed,
light haired tiger. He was never in a
fake; he never quit in his life; he never
agreed to let fellow stay. but he was
q fighter who was to be met on the

How about McGoVern? Here's anoth-

Therefore, this is the best
season of the entire year to
get real rational results from
the intelligent method of
treating Catarrh, because the
right treatment co-operates
with nature in her rebuilding
and eliminating efforts that
are now in full operation.
Catarrh, as any victim of
this disease will readily agree,
is a great deal more than a
local irritation and disar-
rangement of the breathing
apparatus. If the disease were
nothing more than this, then
the usual methods of local
treatment would give some
definite results. But have
