But in new football dozen at

Tibboff's Educated Toe May Guide
Princeton TO Eastern Title!

The educated toe OF Tibbott of
Princeton is expected to play a big
part in deciding the eastern football
championship this fall.
TibhOtt. who was ranked with
Eddie Mahan of Harvard. as
punter and drop kicker last year,
has improved wonderfully. His
bOOting was q big asset early in
the season. for il was only his
drop kick that saved Princeton
from scOreless tie with Tufts,
the team which had previously
humbled Harvard.
The summer months did not mean
rest for Tibbott. He spent hours every
day booting the spheriod. using a barn
door six feet square for a target. That
the daily workouts had their effect is
not to be doubted. as it is claimed his

But TibbOtt will need all his
accuracy and speed. for Princeton
has yet TO meet Dartmouth. Oc-
tOber Is; Harvard, November IL,
and Yale. November Is.
Princeton has been put 10 the
test only once In early games, with
Tufts.
In spite Of Dartsmouth's defeat by
Georgetown, eastern coaches are not
holding the Green team lightly.
The Haughton system Of coaching
IS seemingly having its effect at Har-
ward and Yale has undoubtedly the
best team in years.
The real battle OF individuals for
the 1916 season will occur when Tib-

Dorbert is out with def TO the lad at
Carney's Point.
Dorbert has boxed some good men
himself, and says he fears nobody at
the l26-pound mark. He has taken
part in some 90 or 70 ring battles, and
has never been knocked out. Among
the best boys he has battled are Happy
Davis, who a few years ago, was a very
promising lightweight. DOrbert boxed
Davis in Baltimore and stopped him in

bouts with Irish Patty Cline, of New

FELL FROM LOFT;
 HURT; NOW WELL
How a Man Who Landed On Wood Pile and Was Sore From Head to Foot Found Quick Relief.

Once upon a time Edwin Putnam, who lives in the quiet, pretty hamlet of Wendell Depot, Mass, climbed up into a loft to get some building ma terial, just as many another man liv- ing in the country must often do. Sud denly he slipped and fell. Ten feet below was a pile of wood, knotted and gnarled. It was a nasty tumble, and MT. Putnam was injured painfully in the back, he was covered with bruises and was sore from head to foot.
 The next day he bought bottle of Sloan's Liniment which had been re- commended to him. Within a very few hours the soreness had vanished and the lameness had disappeared. He was an active man once more.
 Sloan's Liniment can be obtained at all drug stores, 25c., soc. and $1.OO.
