Don't you know that fighters' earnings are based on box of fice totals ami that, irrespective of what the attraction is.

And in the meantime. Mr. Wells, your schedule of prices is in -ad need of revising. So little Is known of your pugilistic ability on Ibis side that you are like a drummer who is traveling without samples.
