 Toxic Acid.

Rheumatism is no respecter of age, sex, color or rank. If not the most dangerous of human afflictions it Is one of the most painful. Those sub. ject to rheumatism should eat no sweets for awhile. dress as warmly as possible. avoid any undue exposure and above all, drink lots of pure water.
 Rheumatism is caused by uric acid For body waste matter, and is often generated in the bowels and absorbed the kidneys to filter this poison from the blood and cast it out in the urine; the pores of the skin are also a means of freeing the blood of this impurity. In damp and chilly, cold weather the skin pores are closed, thus forcing the kidneys to do double work; they become weak and slug gish and fail to eliminate this toxic acid, which keeps accommodating and circulating through the system. even tually settling in the joints and mus cles causing stiffness. soreness and pain, called rheumatism.
 At the first twinge of rheuma tism get from any pharmacy about four ounces of lad Salts: put tablespoon full in glass of water and drink be- fore breakfast each morning for a week. This is helpful to neutralize acidity, remove waste and stimulate the kidneys, thus helping to rid the blood of these rheumatic poisons.

Managers Disagree Over Matter of Deciding of Mon-
 days Winner

Local fight fans will have another opportunity to see Wilson-ODowd fight Monday night at the Birming- ham Athletic club. These two skilled young battlers have meet twice before in their careers and the count stands one in favor of O'Dowd and one draw. Wilson Mon day night will make desperate at- tempt to even matters up with the southern batam champ.
 The local boy has been doing some fine battling in New Jersey since he has been up in the mosquito state with Tommy Tompkins. He has won several knockout battles and has won all decisions of his other fights. He will be in the pink of condition for his bout with O'Dowd
 The Athletic club officials had pretty tough time of it getting Tom my and Jimmy Mayson, D'Dowd's manager, together on terms. The weights was the main argument. Wilson is only weighing 118 and O'Dowd will haveeto work down to weigh in at 124, the weight Tommy finally agreed to let him pass up at enter the ring handicapped on ac- count of the extra weight carried by the Atlanta boxer. Claude feels though that he is in better shape than ever before and can give young Timmy the first licking of his career.
 Another question was referees.
 Tommy wanted two judges in addi tfon to the referee while Timmy
 wanted only third mans decision Tommy won his point here and there will be two judges in addition to Dave Evans, who will officiate in | the ring. This seems to be one | way to eliminate a large part of | the referee trouble of the referees

"Oriental Menace" Has Risen On Sport Horizon

is being developed in such sports as swimming, tennis and boxing.
 Proof of the invasion of western standards also is shown in the pro- gram for the Far Eastern meet which will include competition Tn n volleyball, basketball, rugby footoali and baseball.
 Women. too, are following the lead ership of their American and Euro pean sisters in taking a more actlVe part in athletics. Tennis and swim ming events for feminine partici- pants form a part of the internatlon- al program.
 American Leadership.
 American leadership and principles have been largely responsible for the athletic awakening in the Far East. Interest first was stimulated In the Philippines, where natives proved eager and apt pupils, and has spread throughout the orient.
 One of the outstanding figures Tn this development was ElWood D. Brown. of New York, now executive officer of the newly launched Ma tional Amateur Athletic federation, but who for years stimulated athletic activity in the Far East as Y. M. C. A. worker. With others he was 1n- strumental in staging the first Far Eastern games in 1915, at Manila and bringing China ana iater Japan into the Far Eastern Athletic asso- citation. Siam and Malaga also were induced to become members of this association, but the outbreak of the World war forced both to withdraw from active participation.
 Reports I have received from the Far East indicate that this year games will be the most successtui ever held" MT. Brown declared Tn discussing the athletic situation m the orient. China, Japan and the Philippines all promise to have strong teams in the field. Keen rivalry ex- ists among these nations. and they are anxious to develop talent which will be worth sending to the olymp- ics at Paris.

NEW YORK, March 20.-(By Asso- ciated Press.)-A new oriental men ace" is facing the western world.
 Far from having any warlike sig nificance, however, the cause of "ap- prehension" this time is based upon growing development of athletic prowess in the Far East which threatens to challenge the supremacy of American and European stars in various branches of sport.
 Comparatively little is realized in this country of the tremendous for ward strides which athletics have taken in the past decade in the orient, especially in China, Japan and the Philippine, our island possessions. These three nations, banded together in the Far Eastern Athletic associa- tion, the major oriental sport gov erning body, have taken the initia- tive in putting recreational activities on it's present high plane.
 Far Eastern Games.
 As the result of progress which has been unostentatious but none the less effective, the rest of the athletic world is beginning to focus it's atten- ton on this Far Eastern develop ment. Right now particular interest is being manifested in the 1923 Far Eastern games, biennial affair modelled along Olympic lines. The meet this year, is the sixth since 1913 and will be held in Osaka, Japan. beginning May 21. It promises to witness calibre of performance comparing favorably with the best in this country and Europe, and in the Far East it is looked upon as a preliminary step toward real repre- sentation from that part of the world in the Paris Olympics of 1924.
 Conditions peculiar to the orient undoubtedly will preclude competing generally on an even footing with their Caucasian rivals, but high class talent in many branches of activity is being produced as result of sys- tematic training and encouragement As an example, the list of track and field stars, according to latest re- ports. includes several 10-second sprinters, while unusual proficienc
