THE BIG FIGHT IN THE

ton of Rex Beach's virile book "The
spoilers" remembers above every
thing else the "big fight" This tu-
multous and realistic scene served
over all it's other incidents, to raise

day and make it a topic of general
discussion

self In Clune's elaborate multiple
reel production of 1.-THE Eyes of the
World" a pictorial version of Har-
old Bell Wright's famous story, on
which the Ciune studio have been
working for six months, and which is
scheduled to have it first showing
here at the Orpheum theatre, Black
foot, Monday and Tuesday, May 81
and %.
"The Eyes of the World" also has

is not, however, in any way, pat
termed after the one in ''The Spoil
ers." Nor is it dragged in for mere
ly spectacular purposes. 1t is a high
ly essential part of Wright's story.
Thousands Of readers of the book
will identify it from this simple
statement. 1t is the fierce struggle
of Ruthlidge and King, rival suitors
of the heroine, on the cliff which re-
suits in Ruthlidge's tragic end.
This scene was recently staged"
on the very crest of one of the San
Bernardino mountain ranges near
Skyland Heights. Lloyd Brown,
Clune's general manager of produc-
tons, searched for weeks to find the
topography and general scenic set
ting that we're required. 1t needed
great height of cliff together with
great depth of canyon and sweeping
view of rugged mountain grandeur.
The panorama must be as fine az the
action that was to take place.
Finally, just as despair was felt
in discovering the right combination,
the place was found. Here from the
highest summit, range after range
slopes downward to a valley which
separates the highest peake by fully
20 miles. In this valley verdant
ranches, desert stretches, threads of
highway cross-cut this green and
gray checkerboard, and trails and
firebreaks zig-zag thru pine forests
Of different levels, all contribute to
the wonderously beautiful view.
Out into this hollow of Gods
Hand"-to quote n of Mr.. Wright's
phrases-jutted two giant crags
whose bases are planted far down in
to the cavernous reaches of one of
California's deepest canyons. There
is a sheer drop from the apex of this
rock formation of probably 1900
feet. On this apex, which is TRAN
gular in shape, and not more than
eight feet across at is widest point,
was staged the fight on the death
for the possession of the girl.
Most thrills of this nature are mo-
mentary affairs. This m is a long
h~and-to-hand struggle in which the
participants were every moment in
peril. Edward Peil and Jack Liv-
ingston did this sustained scene at
constant danger of their lives. The
length of the struggle, it is said,
makes for prolonged suspense until

PAIN DISAPPEARS
LIKE MAGIC
You Sleep Like a Top After a Rub
With Speedway

Few people know how to relax
their muscles even when they are
we'll. When pain sets in it's almost
impossible for anyone to properly re-
lax their muscles. Speedway lini-
ment makes 1t easy to do this, even
when the body is racked with pain.
It's the relaxing that quiets and
soothes the nerves, and It's the restor-
ing the circulation that gives you re-
lief from pain. Go to your druggist
today and get even a small container
of Speedway Liniment, rub it in, use
it under a bandage and note the quick,
soothing relief. Just the thing for
rheumatism, lumbago. sore throat and
all muscular soreness. Never burns
or blisters, never smarts or stains.
Use freely Sold under a guaranty Of
money back If 1t fails to give relief.

Old Looks?
(BY DIR. L. n. SMITH

Persons suffering from too much uric
acid in the system frequently look older
than they should. They age faster and
the appearance Of gray hair or baldhead
in early years is, indeed, often sign Of
uric acid, The face appears lean and
haggard, lines and wrinkles appearing in
young men or women.
The best way to combat this prema-
ture age and the obstruction to the
arteries and faulty circulation is of the
simplest: Drink copiously OF pure water
between meals. This will not make YOU
fat, as it is only the water taken with
the meals that fattens. Obtain at any
drug store package OF Anuric double
strength, which is to be taken before
meals, in order to expel tie uric acid
from the system. The painful effects Of
backache, lumbago, rheumatism, govt,
due to uric acid in the blood should quickly
disappear after treatment with Anuric.
