Lewis never fought seriously and
Dempsey never wrestled seriously.
One Is almost as great in one line
as the other is in the other. They
brought the question up recently
out in the Northwest and the
wrestler won. because he caught
the fighter by a dive into his legs
and upended him in a hurry.
The Washington times., 1922-03-22

What, now. would you think Of
free-for-all contest of this sort, Demp-
sey to enter the ring with bare hands
and be permitted to hit as he pleases
and Lewis to do the same, both men
to be allowed all of the fair wrestling
rules and only such of the fighting
rules as come within the code laid
down by the man who generally was
supposed to he the Marquis OF
Queensberry?
Remember, both men to be bare
handed and permitted to hit and
struggle as they Pleased, the wrestler
to hit as much as he liked and to take
all Of the holds that he might be able
to secure, the fighter to slash away
with his bare hands as he liked and
also to get all of the fair holds on the
wrestler that he could.
The interesting question OF the
whole thing IL whether Lewis would
be able to &c. n telling and killing
hold on the fighting man before the
fighting man could get in solid
punch on his chin with his Eare
hands before that thing could EOS
sibly happen. OF course, the thing
would be settle.l by either a clean
fall, with Dempsey on his shoulders,
or by a clean knockout, with Lcvis
down and taking the full count.

Prison ExhalatiOns

THE ENORMOUS ROOM. By E. E
Cummings. Boni Sc Liveright.
"HIS is an uncanny book. One
puts it down with a feeling
Of nausea, which is doubtless
according to the writer's intent. but
also with strong conviction that
it is book which never should have
been printed. It serves no purpose
except to disgust. For, even if one
takes Mr.. Cummings narrative ex-
actly at its face value, making no
discount for any possible exaggera-
ton, granting that he was the VIC
tim Of injustice and as such is en-
titled to complain, and granting also
that there is no other Interior mo-
tive in writing it the book never
theless leaves one quite unconvinced.
The author has succeeded in giving
a singularly unpleasing picture of
himself and his fellow victim: so
much so that the reader is COM
PEELED to suspend judgment-realiz-
ing that there is obviously another
side to the story. which Mr.. Cum
mings carefully does not tell.
In brief, the facts as alleged by
Mr.. Cummings are that he and an
other young American. designated as
b, were arrested, in October,
1917. by the French Government. on
suspicion of being spies, that they
suffered several months imprison-
ment at various prisons and camps
and were finally released and allowed
to return to America. So far as any
basis for the arrest is limited it ap-
pears to have been due to certain let
tiers written by B, which were
misunderstood" by the censors, and
that Mr.. Cummings was taken along
chiefly because of his friendship for
this B. He gives an account

of hairbreadth escapes from poison

hostile Indians-but the imperative

leave the reader to make these pleas

OF his examination which presents
it as a farce. Thereafter the book
is taken up with the details of his
prison life.
1t may be admitted at once that
this description is luridly effective.
1t tells a hideous story, with a rare
minuteness of detail, with much pic
turesqueness of diction and unde-
niable rhetorical power. In the often
repeated phrase Of the book itself.
Ca pue. 1t is meant to reek. and it
does reell. No form Of filth is UNI
printable for it. though it does some
times cover itself with the French
instead OF the English word. II wal
lows. 1t not only delves into the
dung hill but shouts about the treas
ures it is turning up. One gathers
from it that the French military
prisons were unspeakable horrors of
unsanitary stupidity. Of incredible
brutality and savagery.
On the other hand we are intro
duced to many amiable characters
among the prisoners, of all nation
alities. not forgetting some who had
had the misfortune to be born in
Germany" There is scarcely a
Frenchman in the book who is not
either a monster or a comic alb
surdity.
II Mr.. Cummings narrative is
taken at his own valuation he was,
beyond 6oubt, entitled to complain.
But beside protest and what might
pass for honest indignation there
is also snarl. sometimes a whine,
and always virulent malice in his
complaint, reaching from his own
commanding officers in the Ambu-
lance Service. where he was a driver
to almost every official. French or
American, with whom he deals. The
book in itself is distinctly unsani-
tary.

'Right-o. your Reverence. carry

Such are some of the high spots
in this volume; and backward
glance reveals the significant fact
that only small proportion of them
have an inherent connection with
the tropics. which only goes to prove
the opening contention that Mr.. Fos-
ter's interest lies first of all in his
main subject-human nature-and
only secondarily in his chosen stage
setting Of the Andes and the Anna

WEAK KIDNEYS MAKE
WEA KBODIES
Kidney Diseases Cause Many Aches
and Ills of Maysrille People.

AS one weak link weakens a chain
SO may weak kidneys weaken the
whole body and hasten the final
breaking-down.
Overwork, strains, colds and other
causes iniure the kidneys, and gener-
ally when their activity is lessened
the whole body suffers.
Aches and pains and languor and
urinary ills frequently come, and there
is an ever-increasing tendency to-
wards droYsy, gravel or fatal Bright's
disease. When the kidneys fail there
is no real help for the sufferer except
kidney help.
Doan's kidney Pills act directly on
the kidneys.
No need to take the statement of
someone living far away as evidence.
Here is case right in this locality.
A. Sorries, gun and locksmith, Aber-
deem, Ohio, says: "My experience with
Doan's Kidney Pills leads me to rec
ommend them strongly. My kidneys
contained sediment. / had backaches
and when stopped it was difficult to
strighten again. Colds always settled
on my back and kidneys. l used
Doan's Kidney Pills and they put a
stop to the trouble"
OVER FOUR YEARS LATER, Mr..
Sorries said: II am the same strong
believer in Doan's Kidney Pills. ] have
had no trouble with my kidneys since
recommending Doan's."
