IDAHO RUNNER
HAS A CHANGE

MOSCOW. May Clarence
Edmundson. the great Idaho runner,
may be one OF the winners II tho
Pacific coast tryonts at Stanford
University to go to London. but 10
will have to take his chances with
three other men.
Reports from California stats
that three are sure Of places. and
that Ralph Rose, owing to his past
record. and Smithson. who has been
making 1t his business to break hur-
de records this year, will Be two %
the men.
The other representative from
the coast will be either Edmunson,
who beat the great Olympic half
miller in the distance; Bellah. who
vaulted IL feet for Stanford, or
King, the winner Of the 15-mils
race.
It Is believed that Edmunson has
an even chonce with any OF these
men, except for the fact that they
do not know AZ much about hin
other performances as they do about
the California men. It II believed
records made by Edmunson for tho
rest Of the year will be watched
with interest. as that may determfns
his fortune.

TRAPS FOR THE MARINERS
Some Points Peril That Are Dreaded by SeamenMeess
Kentsh Knock.

The exact location of Davy Jones'
locker is not shown OH any ocean chart
extant, principally because 1t Is a state
and not a place. but If any one ocean
death trap deserves the title 1t is the
Thames estuary. The British naval
department has chart upon which
1t marks the position of wrecks with
a black dot On this chart the Thames
mouth tract is solid black spot So
numerous have been the wrecks that
the dots run together. The point
where the black dots actually pile one
on top of another is the Kentish Knock,
and this is the place among all of the
oceans danger spots that deserves the
title of Dayy Jones' locker.
At the Ientish Knock it is not keel

We personally recommend and guar

and most dependable remedy for con-

the supreme virtues of this remedy
that we sell it on our guarantee of
money back in every instance where
it fails to give entire satisfaction. and
We urge all in need of sIch medicine
to try it at our risk.
Rexall Orderlies contain an entirely
new ingredient which is oGorless.
