AMES' CHANCES GOOD
Iowa State College Confident Of Hold
ing Her Own in Athletic Meet With
tho University Of Nebraska at Ames,
Saturday.
Special to Times Republican.

Special to Times Republican.
Arnes, May S.--The athletic events to
take place at the Iowa State College
Saturday, are stirring UP decided In
the present favorable weather con-
tinues. there will be the largest crowd
OF the season In attendance at this the
first meet to be held with another coi-
lege this spring. Concerning the base
ball game to be played IN the forenoon,
there is not SO great an interest as was
manifested over the one yesterday aft
ernoon in the game with the University
Of Iowa, but the game with Nebraska
is by no means an unimportant game
and the team will be in good condition
for ~ save that they will have had
hard game today.
Tho, there Is no record from a dual
performances OF Saturday. the records
made IN the home meet two weeks ago
justify the followers of athletics here
to feel pretty sure that the Iowa State
College will hold her own In every re-
spect with the University of Nebraska.
Taking everything into CONSIDERS
ton, 1t appears that Ames has pretty
good chances in the meet Saturday.
Her men have not been doing work
OF nature that they VIII be over
trained, but are just approaching the
mid season form. The plan OF Watt
son to have them in the pink OF condi-
tion for the state meet will not admit
of their training too hard at this date,
but as the state meet is only four
weeks or they have been worked hard
er the, past few days than before, and
they are showing the training in their
work.

only hope Of winning the event lies in
the Giophers' weakness.
Coach Catlln, of the state university,
declares that apparently Minnesota is
strong only In the events In which Iowa
Is strong. and for that reason Iowa $
chances are considerably better than
they would be otherwise. Only first
place is to count In the meet and that
will be another point in the Hawkeyes'
favor There few events In which
1T is believed that Iowa has better than
an even chance Oh winning. One OF
these Is the mile, with Captain Riley as
the star performer. Miller Dougherty
and Renshaw will represent Iowa In
the sprints. None of them, however.
are shown to be very fast. Hanlon will
run in the quarter. 1t is also possible
that Riley will enter the half mile as
well as the mile. Simmons will run the
high hurdles. his mark Of IL showing

We decided that we were quite
equal to this task, and, proceeding to
the stable, undertook to hitch up" on
our own account.
MacArdel did the driving, and sat
on the seat behind him in all the glory
Of an escorted guest. As we turned
the corner into the road that led to
the station, sudden gust Of wind
waited into my face the same indie
scribable odor that had offended my
nostrils the night before and called
him to stop.
'"Mac!" said, there's something
wrong here! ! can get that confounded
smell again!"
He pulled up his horse with Jerk
and, springinE to the ground, began,
with me, to peer under the seatB ST

tracted from q pile Of blankets and

discovered on the previous night, and

The Rexall Remedies

The Rexall Remedies
deserve confidence.
As all these Remedies
are grouped under one
name. they must succeed
or fail together. There
must be no weak links
in this chain. One sir-
worthy remedy would
mean disaster for the en-
tire plan. If you, for
example, purchased the
Rexall Cough Cure and
were not cured by it,
how could we expect
you TO place any faith
thereafter in the Rexall
Dyspepsia Cure or any
other member Of the
Rexall family?
YOU can understand,
therefore, why such anx-
ious care was givcr, TO
finding and choosing the
