Just received from the fartorv car of hard wall plaster. L. W. Metiper. Ring Battles of Jack Dempsey and Carpentier Jack Deuipjey and Jess Willard met for the world's Ireavyweight championship at Toledo, U., July 4, lit lib The day was bllsteriligly hot. The thermometer at the ringside reg l.steied as high as 13d degrees. The big arena, coin-trucU'd to Beat 75. Out) persiius, vontaiiied only a few hund red more than Ht.litiU. The gate re ceipts, however, insured the finan cial succets of the project. There wis a marked contrast in the demeanor of Ihe boxers as they entered the ring. Jess Willard. the champion, was almost arrogantly confident. He approached the ring with a sure guide, climbed through tho ropes and gazed calmly out on the cro'vd with the suggestion of a j mil'.i playing around his mouth. Deinpsey's manner was more seri ous. A scowl, which visitors at his Atlantic City training camp have seen this rummer while he boxed, was Intensified as he heard tle in structions of Iteferee Ollle record. The casual observer would have said hei was doubtful of h!3 ability to de feat this huge opponent. With the hell for the opening round, doubt as to Dempsey's confl- ence vanished. He rushed Willard. nlyipg him with rights and lefts, first to tho Jaw, then to the body. After 4 5 seconds of action, a rtgnt to the hodv and a left to the Jaw dropped Willard to the canva. For the remainder of the round, tlw champion displayed eouraee reldom "onalled in tb squared circle. Seven times during the round, w illard was alther knoeked down or sent help- 'ess to tho ropes. He was prone when the gong sonnired for the close of the round. In the clamor, the gong was not heard and it was believed for a moment that Willard had been ''nocked out. Pemnsev even rtarted to lonve the ring, believing that he was the victor. There haR been doubt as to whether he actually got -vtit of the ring. Willard a porv Moody mass, noi' ves closed but still fighting, man yeed to last two more rounds. He "as unable to answer the hell for the north round nnd Pempsey was do tared tbo winner by a knockout in hre rounds. nomn" won the title like a vlr- ilp, fo fls'ed f)pbtsr and It. was he- teved be wonM box often, with out nnibhllnir ns to terms and rnar- ,r.tee.

He id met M'ske twice before in no loi iuir.n bouts of 10 and six rounds. Tim match turned out as anticipated m easv victorv for Penipsey by a '-nockont In three rounds. The bout, however, drew a "gate" f $1o4.!l04. and served to replenish he Pninse"-Ve.irn.s coffers to the amount of J55.000. Carpentier became a heavyweight n 1913. The year which saw him lefeat Marcel Moreau tor the mid dleweight championship of France ind then invade the ranks or the 'leavyweights to twice defeat Bom bardier Wells, the big Englishman .vns probably the most sensational of his career. raipentier. through his superb :xing skill, gave Moreau a terrific leatiug in eight rounds, forcing his Pi'ouent to quit, although with a use in which Moreaa's seconds de- Mured that his glove had been split tud his hand injured. Carpentier was now ready to meet Wells. The bout was staged in llieut. June 1, 1913. Carpentier knocked Wells out In the fourth round. The Frenchman leclares that the first three minutes .if that match were the worst he ever xperienced In the ring. Wells knocked Carpentier down for a count d nine In the first round. Spectators were amazed when the Frenchman regained his teet. Hanging on, he weathered the storm. He stalled Ibiough the second, felt out his mnn in the third and found that the stomach was his opponent's vulner able spot. in the fourth, after about a min ute of action, Carpentier feinted for the Jaw. Wells lifted his guard nnd Carpentier shot a right to the mid section that aunt Wells down and nit. It was a remarkable show of pluck and recuperative power on the 'ait of the Frenchman, still In his 'teens. Ihe si nsationnl knockout of Wells by Caip. utler made the Frenchman nore tlinn owr tho "Pet of Paris." Everywhere he was greeted as a con- lueinr with adulation that would have done no good to a mnn less balanced In Judgment. He was the first Frenchman to achieve interna tional prominence In boxing, which Is not prlinnrlly a French sport. Cnrpenller fought Jeff Smith, the Amerlcnn middle and light heavy weight, tn Paris shortly aHer the first Wells battle and defeated him In ?fl rounds. Wells.

H i it A Real Gain to health and com fort is often found by turning from tea or coffee to POSTUM Cereal and the taste is fully satisfied. Postum has charm without harm. "There's a Reason" time, was demanding a return battle and Carpentier readily acquiesced. They met the second lime at the National Sporting Club In London, Dec. 8. 1918. The belting was "even," for England still refused to l.e'leve that th;s slender Frenchman was really a match for Wells. Wells was nervous. His knees shook as he looked across the ring at the cool, smiling Carpentier. Carpentier spent no time in "feel ing out" his man. Out of his corner like a bullet, he whipped in savage blows to the heart and stomach, cen tering Ms fire on the mid-section. Wells, in desperation, struck out his right. Carpentier slid under It and hlawd away with a blow to the heart. Wells' knees sagged. Car pentier, hooked a right and a loft to the jaw. Wells went down for the count. The bout hud lasted less than one minute. Now, more than ever. French Joy knew no bounds. Pictures of Car pentier festooned Paris. Sculptors made him their model. Statuettes of 'he borer adorned automobiles. More than ever, he was the "Idol of France." Championship Battles Short Sketches of Figlita for the Heavyweight Title. The only boxer that ever got a real good day's work out of Jack Dempsey was Hill Brennan. Usually lack knocks an opponent out In the first two or three rounds and col lects his day's wages. But somehow or other Bill is one of those fellows vho can't get to sleep right away. Once It took six rounds for Dempsey to quiet his nerves and on another occasion Bill remained awake nearly twice that long. This second occasion was last De cember at Madison Square Garden. Brennan wan sure feeling fine that night. He acted as though he had lust taken a shower under the Foun tain of Youth and Instead of sticking around wondering which way to dodge next, ho etepped up and showed the champion all his stuff. Some of It didn't seem to sit very well with the king of fighters. Early in the bout Brenann handed him a wallop that for a moment seemed to daze the trend that wore the crown. A little later on his glove slashed Dempsey's mouth and after a while other cotpuscles began to take the llr in the vicinity of the champion's ear. The experts said Brennan carried the fight to Dempsey for ten rounds. Some skeptics believe the champion tarried that long to give the movie fans a treat. Other people whispered that the real low down on the thing was that. Dempsey had not trained hard for the scran alid was not In good condition. The fact remains that none of his caveman punches were in evidence during the early part or the fight. He assembled one of these wallops In his right arm during the 12th round and let it loose upon Brennan squarely amldshlp. The big challen ger's body assumed the posture of a half-opened pocketknlfe. his head Iropplng almost to his knees. Fight ing hard against the approaching end. he spread out his legs and re mained tin. While swaying in this position Brennan received a sound smash on the Jaw and fell to the floor.

QUIT TELLING FUNNY STORIES WKy Congressman Kelly Sacrificed Humor on the Altar of Serious Statesmanship. Patrick Kelly, a representative In congress from Michigan, says that be used to tell many stories In going about lu bis political campaigns. The audiences alwuys liked theiu and went away pleased. Telling them looked like good politics. Veurs later Kelly would meet a man and he woujd say: "1 huve met you before. I remem ber very well a certain story you told." Then he would repeat the anecdote. Kelly would ask hltn what else be re membered that bad been said, and be would be unable to remember a tiling. The congressman begun to wonder if the telling of stories prevented more seri ous matters from finding lodgement In the hearer's mind. He became fearful. He was not sure, but he decided to lay off the funny story. So was the possibility of a multitude of good laughs sacri ficed at the altar of serious states manship. New York Sun. One Way to Attract Customers. In a small New England town I met a druggist who makes a specialty of aelllng postage stamps. He says that to retail 2-cent stamps for 2 cents encb Is the most profitable line In his store. These suits would be extremely un profl able. If he handled stamps grouchily or grudgingly, snying by his munncr: "Whntta you mean by both, crlng me to sell you postage stamps?" But he has signs In his window tell ing that he has plenty of stauips, and makes a special effort to be more pleasant nnd accommodating nnd gra cious about a s amp sale thnn at any other time. He has attracted thou sands of permanent customers in that way. "A new customer Is worth many dollars a year," he observes, "whether the thing that first brought hltn In Is postage stamps, cigars or whatnot. So having enticed him In, why should I do anything to make hltn sorry he came?" Fred Kelly in The Nation's Business. No Use For Ailing Wife. The New Turk Medical Journal says: "Dr. Llchtwardt, a medical mission ary, tells that many of the Persian sick women are obliged to steal away, during their husband's absence, to see a doctor. " 'Honorable Sir, says the Introduc tory note, 'please see me at once thnt I may return home before my hus band, else he will bent me severely.' "We should not think neurotics abound, for the husband often says to the doctor: 'Well, let her die, for even If she gets well I'll divorce her and get a new wife.
