He had the championship in his grasp. He had his men going and he had a free shot at h:m. A few- mrments later Dempsey was himself again. The bigger man had come back. Carpentier was to ftand trial in a minute or s.o. In the fourth round Dempsty grvt his change. He drove a terrific right hander to the heart and thin a loft and then a right to the chin and his opponent wilt.d.

LEONARD RETURNS

Lew Tendler Beats Droney in Eight Founds at Reading READING. PA., July 5 Lew Tenfih r of Philadelphia easily defeated Tim Droney, Lancaster in eight r ,unds here today. The Phlladelphian forced the fighting throughout and very round in his favor.

; He is big enough for a heavyweight ! champion. He has almost everything a heavyweight champion should waat but he can't take it. The French boxer has enough weight. He proved that by his ins ov r Wells, Beckett, Smith and others. They outweighed him a good deal but this was no handicap to him at all. Carpentier faced those burly warriors, sh.-t over that dynamite right of his to the butter and the numbers commenced to run. . He. did the same thing against Dempsey Saturday but instead of kissing the canvas Dempscy staggered back a few feet, pulled himself together, absorbed another and another and was still on his feet. Right there is where Mr. Dempsey proved himself the better man. Car

pentier s stock in trade was a right hand uppercut and a right to the chin, j

In the second round he dealt his favorites to Dempsey and failed to stop him. He had his chance. Had Dempsey been a weakling or possessed of a chicken heart he would have wilted like a rose in the sun. Dempsey took it, didn't he? It was the best that Carpentier had to offer. There was no bad luck about the tiling. The Frenchman pulled his best and hit the target clean. The champion of the world was for the moment groggy. Kis vision was foggy, his hands lost their grip and he was set for the killing. No one was at fault but Carpentier. As Dempsey reeled from the last right

BECAUSE we put the utmost quality into this one brand. Camels are as good as it's possible for skill, money and lifelong knowledge of fine tobaccos to make a cigarette. Nothing is too good for Camels. And bear this in mind!' Everything is done to make Camels the; best cigarette it's possible to buy. Nothing is done simply for show. Take the Camel package for instance'. It's the most perfect packing science can devise to protect cigarettes and keep them fresh. Heavy paper secure foil wrapping revenue stamp to seal the fold and make the package air-tight. But there's nothing flashy about it. You'll find no extra wrappers. No frills or furbelows.
