A Far Better
External Remedy

No matter how up to date your
doctor is, there is one old-fashioned
remedy he often finds most helpful
the mustard plaster. For generations
it has been recognized as useful in
treating bad colds, particularly where
pneumonia is feared. But today
many physicians realize that there is
something far better in the way of
external treatment, giving results
never before obtained. It is B. & NJ,
The Penetrating oGermicide. For
quickly checking coughs and colds it
is always dependable. Should al
ways be used where pneumonia
threatens or has set in. B. & M. is
the only germicide that penetrates
when externally applied. There is
nothing else like it, no substitute for
it. Your druggist should have it in
stock. Or we will mail a full-size
bottle on receipt of SIPS and his
name. Useful booklet free. F.. E.

Snake Venom Found to
Be Cure for Epileps,

al
A great impression has been Gre
ated in the medical and scientific
world by the recent statement of
certain doctor who, in the course
Of a lecture, drew attention to the
remarkable cures obtained through
injecting snake venom into patients
suffering from epilepsy, one of the
most obstinate of diseases, which, up
to the present, has resisted all treat
ment. The doctor in question, sup
porting his statements by references
to the official report of British col
league in South Africa, declared that
injections Of venom drawn from the
most dangerous snakes could cure
this dread disease. Out of $50 pa
tients treated in South Africa by the
new process a complete cure for s
per cent was obtained. The remedy
failed in only per cent of the cases.
A very real progress manifested it.

lowing the treatment, the attacks
becoming gradually less frequent.
Experiments of a like nature were
also made with neurasthenic pa

New Style Blacksmithing

The village smithy has taken to
the highways and business is excel
lent, Louis Wanasek, a Wisconsin
blacksmith, reports. He admits that
the motorized era showed horseshoe
ing from the door of his smithy and
might have forced him into bank
ruptcy had he failed to fight the au.
tomobile with the automobile. "There
are still plenty of horses" he said.
"but farmers refuse to drive tine
poky things to blacksmith shop"
So Wanasek receives orders by tele-
phone, loads tools into his car, and
drives to the farms where there is
horseshoeing to be done.

Lemon verbena was favorite, rose

Up the Trail of Glory
With Jack Dillon
BY DUTCH" EGGERT

Jack Dillon became generally
recognized as the light heavyweight
champion in 1918. He had defeated
all claimants for the title held in
allegiance since the reign Of Tommy
Burns as boss Of the ITS Founders.
AS a monetary asset the crown
meant little or nothing to Dillon
He failed to capitalize on it and
continued to meet anybody, any
time, any place.
Battling Levinsky had been trying
for years to earn a victory over
the famous Dillon.
The Jewish battler, who first met
Dillon under the ring name Of Bar
ney Williams, but changed to
Battling Levinsky and placed him
self under the guidance Of Dumb
Dan Morgan, caught Jack out of
condition in their twelve round
scrap in Boston, in October, 1916,
and was awarded the decision.
The usual aggreSsiveness that
characterized Dillon's previous bouts
with the Battler was noticeable for
its absence in this session.
Levinsky remarked after the
fight: II knew if ever was lucky
enough to catch Jack out Of condi-
ton could beat him"
The bout was not billed as a
championship affair, but it was I'M
derstood that both boys we're under
the required IT'S pounds weight.
Dumb Dan, the "ballyhoo" man
ager, Immediately began to yep
things up in that heretofore lax
division Of the championship classes
and loudly cheered the Hebrew
battler as he "champeen."
The loss Of the title meant little
to the Hoosier Bearcat and he con-
tinued on his way. The years IT
and '18 were big one for Jack and he
met such ring stars as NIiske, Gun
boat Smith, Harry Greb, Mike Glib
bons, Bob Moha, Hugh Walker and
Gus Christie, along with many
others.
Shortly after 1918 it was evident
that the Giant Killer was on the
down grade, and durtngOthe waning
years of his campaign, 10, 20, q,
the names Of many lesser lights of
f1stiana mark the pages of his
most marvellous ring record.
Dillon had continued in the game
that brought him world renoWn
far longer than his physical condi-
ton warranted, and it was only
upon the insistent demands Of his

personal friends that he quit the
ring forever.
During the summer of 1920, Chuck
Virgins met the Jewish champion
in twelve-round battle in Dayton,
o. But for a ridiculous decision
that was nothing short of banditry,
Chuck would have come home to
Indianapolis in possession Of the
title Jack once owned. Dillon acted
as Virgins adviser in this bout.
and when introduced from the ring
as the ex-light heavyweight cham
pion received a tremendous ova-
ton along with a hearty hand
shake and pat on the back from
Leyinsky. 1t was a demonstration
of the esteem III which Jack was
held by both fighters and fight
fans the country over.
