WEST POINT DENIAL
Athletic Authorities Brands as False Report That Athletes Arc Made or fcrs To Enroll There.

West Point, N. r., Feb. IA. -- Charges that unethical means were employed to induce athletes to desert ether colleges and enroll as students at the United States military academy met with vigorous denial in a letter sent today 10 members of the army athletic association by it's officers The charges. the letter said, were con tained in a series of newspaper ar ticlcs, 'all of which emanatcd from Annapolis"
 "Thn authorities of the academy wish to make the most sweeping de- nial that there is the slightest basis for the report that they have engaged in or would countonance any un- sportsmanlike methods 10 obtain ath- lctic types" said the letter.
 After calling the attention of asso- citation members to the fact that West Point authorities have no control over appointments to the academy, tho lct- ter concluded:
 "The authorities of the military aca ademy have never presumed to dic- tat or criticize the policy of any other institution in any particular re- speet; they ask only that authorities of other institutions credit the mill tary academy with the same high sense of fair play with which West Point has always frankly and freely credited institutions"

NEW GERMAN OIL SOLD UNDER WRITTEN GUARANTEE RUBS
 OUT RHEUMATISM

A remarkable new discovery of German Chemistry for the relief of rheumatism, Gout and Neuralgia, is astonishing the medical world. This marvellous oil seems to kill rheumatic pains just as effectively as these other German pain killers-Novocain for painless dentistry and Aspirin for head ache pains.
 Rheumatism in very many cases is due to internal abscesses such as blind pus pocket in a tooth which gives off poisons, and which are carried in the blood to the joints and muscles. This new German oil when applied to the affected parts seems 10 quickly penetrate and be absorbed by the body tissue. Even in the most severe and stubborn almost instant relief has been obtained,
 Note The oil referred to above is known in this country Buhler oil. At the pre- sent time, the following druggists report that they have secured limited quantity of Buhler oil for distribution in this city. So remarkable have been the results from the use of Buhler oil that these druggists are giving their customers written guar antee to refund the price in full to any purchaser of Buhler Oil who fails to get immediate relief. On sale at: The Fair Store. MalinowsIsi & OBrien. The Clark & Brainerd Co., Miller Hanson Drug Co.,, The Dickinson Drug Go.
