ANY physician will tell you that
Rheumatism IS deep-seated blood
disease. The pain is not the dis
ease itself. but merely d symptom
natures warning to you that you
have been attacked. The only in
telligent treatment, therefore, is
through the blood: treatment di-
rected toward eliminating the dis
ease germs from the blood. For
years nearly all the prescriptions
used by the medical profession
were those containing iodide Of
potash or mercurial substances, but
in nearly every case these minerals
are more injurious to the system
than the disease itself.
One reason why S. S. S. is 50
successful in the treatment Of
Rheumatism and other blood dis
orders is the fact that it is a purely
vegetable remedy, being made
from roots and herbs gathered d.
rect from the forests. Il contains
not a particle of mineral substance.
and acts by driving all disease
germs from the blood and cleansing
It of all impurities. S. S. S. has
been on the market for fifty years.
and every druggist has sold It ever
since he has been in business. 1t is
sold under an absolute guarantee
that it is purely vegetable.
Our medical department IS main

ed, and il you will write fully about

WOMAN sERIoUsLYBURNED.

Mrs. Charles Lindemann, 223 North
Minnesota street, was severely burned
about the body early yesterday mora
ing, and is suffering intense pain at the
Union hospital. The accident occurred
while Mrs. Lindemann was lighting the
kitchen fire, and she is unable to tell just
how it happened. It is believed that
while the fire was being lighted the
fame caught in her sleeve and spread
to her other clothing. She was alone
in the room when the fire caught, and her
cries attracted the attention of Mr..
Lindemann who rushed to his wife's
assistance He extinguished the flames
and physician was promptly summoned.
The burns are confined to her body and
arms, her face having practically escaped.

Plenty of Surplus Steam
Superintendent A. j. Mueller of the
water and light department told the
council that he and C. E. Foster,
engineer of the C. Z. Pillsbury company,
had made a survey of the additional
radiation required by the proposed ex-
tension, and were satisfied that the pre-
sent quantity of exhaust steam from the
water and light plant is sufficient, ex-
cept in extreme cold weather, and that
only for a short time in.the morning.
Before adjourning Alderman Kfook
reported to the council that it would be
practically impossible to secure the
seasons supply of coal except on the
open market. An effort is now being
made, he said, to secure an additional
ten cars to an order that is now on the
way, which if successful, will carry the
city thru until about November /.

Proposition is Indefinite.
The Lynne & Bowler company made
a proposition, but it was so indefinite
as to the cost and results that it was but
slightly considered by the council. The
Memphis firm proposed to provide well
or series of wells, guaranteeing to supply
300, 900 gallons of water each twenty
four hours, but there was nothing to
prevent furnishing any sort of surface
or other impure water, while the price
would reach around $4,000.

citizens residing on German street ap.
peared and entered mild protest against
sinking the well too near that street,
