(Advt.) ■ THE GOOD WORK STILL KEEPS UP Every day brings tiie one good report of “I am feeling better every day.” The day has come when the people of Atlanta who have been suffering from rheumatism, catarrh, kidney, liver, stomach or blood trouble do realize that there is a cure for them. The Health Teacher has given you daily the names and addresses of people who have been using the Quaker Herb Ex tract and Oil of Balm, and are either cured or greatly benefited. Now. when you read daily about your neighbors and friends who repeat the great good they have received, how can you still THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. MONDAY. DECEMBER 2. 1912. Law Has Johnson Bound, While Jeannette and Lanford Leave Country GREAT CHANCE NOW FOR WHITE HEAVYWEIGHT By Left Hook. lE' Joe Jeannette goes to Australia in Jack Johnson's place, as he has contracted to do, rather a unique situation will present itself. All the colored heavyweights will be piled up in one side of the Pa cific ocean—with the exception of , Johnson, and the law has the In dian sign on him—and all the white hopes on the other side of the pond. And that, possibly, can truly be regarded as an unmixed blessing. With no dark shadows falling athwart them, It will be a fine time for the pale-face stalwarts to get together and determine who is who. For that matter, the initial move in the weeding out process has al ready been made, for Jim Flynn and Luther McCarty are to face each other at Los Angeles on Decem ber 10. The pity of it is that Al Palzer. who, it was thought, was being held in reserve for the winner, should have injured his reputa tion through a wretched perform ance with Tony Ross. Everybody thou,,nt so well of Palzer. He. wasn't looked upon as a clever exponent of the manly art, but he was accredited with natural fighting' talents and the qualities of strength, pluck and en durance calculated to compensate for his lack of know ledge of tech nique. Now that Palzer had been hum bled by Ross, whose leading record is nearly as extended as that of Tony' Capont, we don't know what to think. Palzer Must Come Back. It may be that Palzer will claim it was an "off-night” with hint when he did so poorly with Ross in Philadelphia. Being a promi nent pugilist, explaining reverses is thoroughly within his province, but if he acts wisely he will undergo a spell of training and demand an other match with Ross. It is the only safe method of vindication, and unless Palzer adopts it and turns the tables on Ross he will remain under a cloud. It's a poor wind that blows no body good, and Palzer’s setback means added importance to the Flynn-McCarty bout. The winner of this affair will be regarded as the best of the white hopes, unless Palzer does something amazing meanwhile. In the go at Los Angeles Flynn will be under all manner of physi cal handicaps. McCarty will out weigh and outreach him, but dis- Law Should Stop Sale Os Elastic and Spring Trusses i Such Misery-Causing Makeshifts Are I the Ruptured Man's Worst Enemies.

These unscientific makeshifts cause much misery and such a shameful waste of money that the law should put a stop to their sale. Don't Buy Anything for Rupture Without Giving It a Thorough Test. There’s only one reason in the world why you or any one else ever gets sad dled up with good-for-nothing make shifts— It's simply because you trust to a mere try-on or hasty examination in stead of first making a thorough test. A truss or so-called "appliance" may seem all right when you first try it on, or for the first few days, and after ward prove utterly worthless. The only way you can ever make sure of exactly what you are getting is by sixty days trial —a thorough day-after day test. And there's only one thing of any i kind whatever for rupture that you can get on such a long trial- only one thing good enough to stand such a long and thorough test That's our guaranteed rupture holder. Only Thing Good Enough To Stand a Slxty-Day Test. We’ll make you a guaranteed rup ture holder —make it to your measure— and send it to you on sixty days trial bet you give it a thorough test with out asking you to risk a cent — if it doesn't keep your rupture from coming out or bothering you in any way, no matter how hard you work or strain if it doesn’t prove every claim we make —then you can send it back and it won’t cost you a single penny. See What It Does This guaranteed rupture border—the famous Cluthe Automatic Massaging Truss—is made on an absolutely new principle. It is far more than just a truss. I'nlike everything else for rupture, it is self-regulating, self-adjusting—in stantly and automatically protects you against every strain, so your rupture can t possibly come out. be skeptical? If you are in doubt about what you read, write or phone the peo ple whose names are given and see if it is not true in every respect. Here is a report from Mr. K. !•’. Herd er, of No. 70 Fowler street, who Is an employee of the Singleton Market on Cain street, who has suffered with a soreness across his stomach that caus ed him much pain at times, shortness of breath, tired, languid feeling as though he could scarcely drag around. He has tried different treatments, but seemed to grow worse, and was afraid he would have to give up work. He was told by a friend about the Quaker Herb Remedies that had been intro- advantages of that kind never dis couraged Flynn. Among the time-honored adages of the prize ring is one that says, in effect: “A good little man can not be expected to defeat a good big man.’’ It is doubtful if the argument holds good in modern pugilism. In the old days when there were so few punches known to the ring men and when every bruiser fol lowed a stilted style of milling, it stood to reason. I suppose, other things being equal, weight, strength and stature would tell. Champions All Original. But this is an age of specialists, and we have them in the ring as well as in other walks of life. There is no common school of box ing nowadays. Probably no two men who have reached the top of the Queensberry ladders in recent years fight alike. The best men in lhe game are self-taught and fol low out ideas of their own. "If Jim Mace lived today and pit ted his straight lefts and rights against the hooks and jolts now in use, he would have his head torn off in five minutes,” said a cham pion who has recently fallen from grace. That may be putting it rather strongly, but the fact remains that the days when the blows and guards were as defined as the cuts and parries in saber drill have de parted. This is the age of short uppercuts, loop-the-loops, under swings, overswings and what not, and the man with a new blow is the dangerous customer. Sant Langford is a living denial of the contention that a good little man can not lick a good big man. Sam has licked them right along for years. And all because he sas peculiar assaults of his own that are hard to solve. And Sam is well over 30 years, although his man ager says he is only 28. Whether or not McCarty is a good big man has hardly been es tablished. He is, however, a fellow of infinite promise. But Flynn has certainly developed into a good lit tle man. And whatever he may be able to accomplish with a good big man he has surely shown that he can play havoc with a big man who is not as good as he thinks he is. The fireman has profited by ex perience. In his earlier bouts he knew nothing but to whale away blindly and trust to the fortunes of war. His stock in trade consisted mainly of a stout heart and indif ference to punishment. He has ! And in addition to constant holding— without which you can never get well I or even get better, just as a broken bone can't knit unless constantly held togethei—in addition to that the Chithe Truss provides the only way ever dis covered for overcoming the weakness which is the real cause of rupture. Just how it does that—entirely au tomatically—is all explained in the free book which the coupon below will bring you. Will Save You from Operation. The Cluthe Truss has such a re markably strengthening and beneficial effect that it has completely cured hundreds and hundreds of people whose cases seemed almost hopeless. It has so thoroughly proved its mer its that many physicians in all parts of the country now recommend it instead of advising operation. No Belt —No LegrStraps—No Springs.

Also perspiration-proof and easily kept clean. Get World’s Greatest Rupture Book. There are so many wrong ideas about rupture that we have taken the time to sum up in a book all we have learned during forty years of experience. This remarkable book—cloth-bound, 96 pages—is full of facts never before put in print. It shows why depending on elastic or spring trusses is about the worst thing you can do. Explains why drug stores and many self-styled "truss-fit ters" should not be allowed to sell their misery-making trusses. It exposes the humbug "appliances," "methods." "plasters," etc., and shows how old-fashioned, elastic trusses are masqueraded under false and mislead ing names. It explains the dangers of operation. And shows why, if you do manage to live through it. you may have to keep on wearing a truss. And it tells all about the famous Cluthe Automatic Massaging Truss— how simple it is—how it ends constant expense—how you can test it on sixty days trial without having to risk a pen ny, and how little it costs if you keep it. Also gives voluntary indorsements from more than 5,000 benefited and cured people. The minute it takes to write for this book may make a big difference in the rest of your life.

He has formulated a defense with chimes in which the close style of fighting for which he is constiutionally equipped. The chances are that Sam Langford, who gave Flynn some of his worst beatings, would find it much harder to land on the fireman nowadays. Manager McCamey says that Mc- Carty has made a special study of Flynn’s stylo and has devised a special bland of uppercut that will bring the Pueblo heavy to time in a hurry. It sounds "good.” Flynn's style. McCarty has probably learned, is simply rapid action style. The way to beat Flynn is to fight faster and hit harder than he does. Prowling around this neck of the woods is Carl Morris, who declares he is still in the running for the , heavyweight title. To be sure, Carl is much better now. as far as hit ting goes, than he was when Flynn handed him a terrible lacing in New York a year and a half back. But I doubt if he can ever take off enough weight to be fast enough to cop the title. And McCarty knocked him out.

It was the rumor in Athens at the time of the Auburn game. It has been the rumor here for weeks. It is stronger now than it was three weeks ago, when it first began to circulate. Such a rumor was circulated last fall, but was then denied. This year there seems more reason than ever for believing the thing may come off. The election of McWhorter as captain of the Georgir team was taken by some to set at rest the rumor, but by others it was be lieved that the position was given to McWhorter as an added induce ment to stay another year at the University of Geongia. If Bob McWhorter goes to Har vard, he should make the biggest sensation of any Southern player in a long time. McWhorter has never been able to do himself justice at Georgia. His services have been so constant ly needed on the offensive that he has never been allowed to do his full share of the defensive work. On a "big league” team, where he could divide the offensive play with .some other stars, he could make himself equally useful on the de fensive and at such work his su perb strength and his speed and courage should make him a star. ♦ ♦ * pERHAPS the best line on the real merits of Southern football players is obtained by consolidat ing the All-Southern picks and thus obtaining a “consensus of opinion” Modern Expert Dentistry at Reasonable Prices $5 Crown and d»/|[ Bridge Work \ j Set of TV J!
