What you’re looking at

This page contains the conclusion of a pulp-fiction boxing story alongside various period advertisements. The left column depicts a climactic fight between characters named Buddy and Slatterty in what appears to be Madison Square Garden, with Buddy ultimately defeating his opponent. The right side features vintage advertisements for products like Cystex (a kidney/bladder remedy), loose dental plates, songs and poems wanted, detective work opportunities, and tobacco cessation treatments—typical commercial content found in early-20th-century pulp magazines.

He could not see Slatterty’s right when he stood orthodox. He shifted his stance a little, drawing back his left and twisting to the right. It was the stance not of a boxer, but of a slugger. Buddy did not move in now. He remem- bered Slatterty’s best blows had been counters. He stood waiting for Slatterty to come in, but Slatterty did not come in. Slatterty motioned for Buddy to come in and fight. Slatterty was strictly a coun- ter-puncher. And suddenly it clicked in | Buddy’s brain that most kayo: artists were! If he robbed Slatterty of his chance to counter-punch—! Buddy made no move to go in and Slatterty scowled. He made a motion with his head that said, “Well, if you won’t, I will!” And he barged in! Buddy hooked his left and slugged his right. Buddy was the hard counter- puncher now and he connected. Slatterty lost his temper. He slammed rights and _ lefts, rights and lefts, and Buddy weath- ered them by inclining his head and hold- ing his arms as strong vertical shields along his head and body. EN Slatterty’s assault paled, Buddy moved in. His left bounced off Slatterty’s nose and his right crashed into his jaw. Slatterty moved back and Buddy followed with driving rights and lefts, Slatterty countered and Buddy’s teeth rattled. His right eye glazed as Slatterty caught him on the temple. Slatterty’s arms were held low and he was in close. Buddy threw his right. He threw his arm and his shoulder and a hundred and thirty-eight pounds with it. He shook his head, clearing it, and moved in after Slatterty. He shook his head again as the referee slapped his arm, but still he didn’t see Slatterty. The rush and roar in his head was terrific, but above it all he heard Moe yelling and pounding the canvas deck and the referee yelling at him, too. Then he looked and saw Slatterty. Slatterty just rolling to iss face on the mat! Buddy was in a hurry to get out of the Garden. Especially after he’d been paid. lf You Get Up Nights You Can't Feel Right If you have to get up 3 or more times a night your rest is broken and it’s no wonder if you feel old and run down before your time, Functional rather than organic or sys- temic Kidney and Bladder trouble often may be the cause of many pains and symptoms simply because the Kidneys may be tired and not working fast enough in filtering and removing irritating excess acids, poisons and wastes from your b - So if you get up nights or suffer from burn- ing, scanty or frequent passages, leg pains, backache, or swollen ankles, due to non-organic or non-systemic Kidney and Bladder troubles, you’ll make no mistake in trying the prescription called Cystex. use it has given such joyous, happy relief in so high a percentage of such cases, Cystex is sold under a guarantee of money back on return of empty rage geri a oe satisfactory.
