TO GET RID OF
RHEUMATISM

If we suffer with Rheumatism and
desire to get rid of it we must make
up our minds to subject our systems
to the proper course of treatment for
a while. Tie only way to cure
oneself of Rheumatism is to remove
the cause-expel .h- irritating uric
acid from the blood. every other
method OF treatment has proved
failure. S. {. 5. cures Rheumatism
because it is the greatest of all blood
purifiers. This medicine goes down
into the circulation and expels every
particle of the sour, inhammatory
uric acid which is the on", great
cause OF the disease. The cure can
be greatly hastened by little care
and self denial by the patient. In
the first place do not let anything
interfere to prevent your taking
S. S. S. regularly and according to
directions; be guarded in your eat
ing, because an attack of indig gestion
will always aggravat the symptoms
OF Rheumatism. Do not expose
yourself to damp and inclement
weather any more than is necessary.
When S. S. S. has had tim to rid the
blood of the uric acid and strengthen
the system, then these little restric-
tions can be left off. This simple
course has cured many thousands of
cases of Rheumatism. Book on

bOSTON, Nov. 2l.-The betting on the
outcome of the Yale Harvard football

"COUNTRY" MORRIS
NOT BL LACKLISTED
Chairman Stuart of A. A. D. Denies That Techs Great
Athlete Has Been Suspended for Two Years.
Lads Amateur Standing Clean.
BY THOMAS KIRBY.

w. g. Stuart. chairman OF the reg
istration committee of the Amateur
Athletic Union. today, sent out formal
denial of the report that Country"
Morris. Tech High Schools athlete, has
been barred from all amateur competi-
ton for two years.
The story appeared this morning but,
according to the chairman, it has no
foundation. Morris is charged with
having played with semi-pro foot
ball team. the Vigilants, on November
il, but Stuart said that Morris card
expired on November 8, which means
that the A. A. U. had no jurisdiction
over his case until he again applies for
re-registration. Then any charges will
be heard but just now the committee
has nothing against the athlete.
The Washington times., 1911-11-21

Morris is one of the best all-round
athletes the Washington schools have
ever sent forth. Since entering Tech he
has starred in baseball. football
basketball and on the track, so the
report that he has been suspended f.
two years came as surprise to those
who intended TO watch his future years,
Some of the biggest colleges in the East
and West have been fortunate In en-
listing the athletes OF the Washington
high schools for their teams and It Is
understood that Marris has received q
rumber Of attractive offers. Had he
been barred by the A. A. u, It would
have been a blow to his career.
with the A. A. y. declaring that II
has not placed the barrier against
Morris, he will be perfectly eligible to
play in the Tech-Central game at
Georgetown Field on next Tuesday for
the benefit of the District Fairgrounds.

DEVELOP THE PROSPECT

We have from time to time urged
upon calm owners the necessity of
thoroughly developing their prospects
before approaching the big money in
etrests for the purpose of investment.
On this point the Mining and Scien-
tific Press of San Francisco makes the
following interesting remarks:
RECENT editorials of ours relative
to the money available for investment
In mining, have attracted much atten-
ton, and our incoming mail has in
creased amazingly. Apparently a large
Number OF our readers have prospects
for sale. The trouble is just that; the
properties are but prospects and have
not been developed sufficiently to prove
what value they may possess. 1t is
not for US to disparage a good pros
pect; without such there would never
be mines. When engaged in the ac-
tive work OF the profession we put
money into more than n good pros
pect that subsequently, belied its indi-
cations, but we have no regrets. Every
mining man may properly be expected
to spend his quota in developing the
basis of the industry. Prospects, how
ever, are not salable; at least in the
sense that they can be appraised,
bought and sold on their merits alone,
as can mines. The amount involved is
usually too small to stand the expense
of examination by an experienced en-
gineer, and large investors canno at
ford to rely on the advice of any 9TH
er. Furthermore, 6htil there is at least
some ore blocked out, it is rare that
sufficient work has been done to permit
any exact estimate of the value of the
property. There are exceptions. The
fortunate circumstances that an unusu-
ally capable engineer visited the prop
erty when preliminary work had de-
veloped unusually significant indica-
tions, warranted the payment of a con
siderable sum for what became the
Commonwealth mine in Arizona, while
it was still a prospect. No one, how
ever, could afford to pay this particu-
lar engineer his usual fees and keep
him busy examining prospects. Until
something definite is developed, invest
ment must be made ON the faith of the
man on the ground. Without raising
any question whatever as to either the
competence or honesty of the prospect
or, it is evident that this is not a sufi-
cient basis upon which a stranger may
properly invest mony in what is ad-
mittedly q long chance. Individual eff
fort and small partnerships based on
personal acquaintance, must be the
main reliance in converting prospects
into mines. Until that stage of develop
ment has been reached, any effort to
interest strangers is not likely to be
successful. Occasionally when the in
weston or his engineer can, with nomi-
nal expense, inspect a prospect, it is
possible to interest outside capital, but
such instances are rare"
