. Veaollat loas In Unlrr,
It U now up to the managers of the
eforementloned three to start negotiations
for a d"ilve match with Freddie Welsh
a twenty-round, brush with a referee's
' verdict attached. It Is our Imllef thai
the flr-H one that can Inveigle Welsh Into
kui h an arrangement will ascend to the
lightweight throne; so It behooves the
sponsors of White, Ritchie and Mandot
ti force the Issue, and let Welsh alone
decide the lucky, adversary.
Welsh, we reiterate. Is clone as ji fighter,
lie has Seen his best days In the ring,
and tho sole reason ha has) clung: to his
title so long It' Is ten months since he
relieved Rltrhls of the diadem la be
cause of the no-dnclsinn contents prevail
ing in this country. True, declmon botiti
ms permitted In several communities, but
Welsh has engaged In only two of these
affairs stnev becoming heir to the light
weight crown; and he waa wary to
choose a "mark" each time.
Another thing which has tended to
!l:nlnlh Welsh's ring power la the fnct
Hint he irni't henceforth favor a fractured
hand. Welsh was never known as a hard
bitter, but now that hia Jb Is robbed
of Its sting It would not be surprising
to see even mediocre lightweights Wade
In and barter punches) with the champion.
Welsh shstterrd his rl'.ht hand oil the
Ivory-crusted cupolo of "Red" Watson, a
a coast lightweight, Mid Frederick la still
out of commission. It will be two weeks
more before he will be seen In action.
It only White. Rltrhle or Mandot couM
tense the themi'lim Into such a match its
mentioned in the earlier paragraph!
Kach of these three has proven his worth
In the ring, and all have earned the right
to engage Welsh In a battle with ths tltl
at stake.
1 TItIm of Criticism.
Welsh is beginning to wilt tinder the
st.sdy fire of crltlctsf directed at Mm
for h!s rtfusul to put his tltlo in the lml
Hire, and if some lightweight doesn't
knock Welsh away from bis throne soon,
there Is every Indication that there will
b another eta without a recognised
ruler.
Welsh is showing: a marked aversion
for steady training, and in recent fight
has shown a tendency to let fat accumu
late In the region of the abdomen. This
Is the first sign of a ring laggard. Wolsh
has reached the stag whera even light
training Is an arduous task; and if he la
ijot esreful will outgrow .the lightweight
.Hvlslon before he can realise the sllua
lion. The lightweight champion gave the first
intimation of this state of affair when
re dlured that ha was willing to tight
P:vh7 McKarland If Patrick would con
pent to do the welterweight poundage.
If Welsh were sure he could make 133
pound' ringside,' he would insist on that
limit. Cut the fact that he la ready to
fight lit the next dlvtton Indicates that
Wi-lsh would have difficulty in coming
clown to the accepted lightweight
standard.
TVlMarrt Htlll Passive.

" 1 '' mm 11 11 ni 11. 11 is
, The Introduction of B. 8. 8. Is at one
a command, to blood Impurities to find
a way out
. And what ara blood Impurities? They
may be the hypersecretions found In th
mucous lining of the body; they may
be acid accumulations known as rheu
matism; they may be bolls, pimples, ec
sema, acne and stubborn. Indolent sores.'
But examined closely, they are all
germs that hav gotten the upper hand
and It requires th flushing Influence of
8. a a to drive them out And out they
go when a & a begins to circulate In
th blood. It only requires five minutes
to begin thts Influence, for It Is a fact
that In this limited time a a a may be
traced In th nrlne, in the perspiration.
In the effloresenc from th lungs to
show that It Is at work. Germs, mind
you, are of various kinds, but all are
foreign to health and a a a Is no re
specter of destructive sjsrms, it drives
them all out of whatsoever name they
go by. Just get a bottle of 6. a a of
any druggist and soon you will observe
a decided change. And If yours Is a
stubborn case, writ to the Medical Ad-
viser, car of Th Swift Specific Co., 107
Swift Bldg.. Atlanta, Ga. He Is a regular
physician, proud of h(a nam by virtue of
hia distinguished family and Is recog
nised as a foremost physician on his
own merit .
