BROWN MAY . SUCCEED WAGNER

While no official announcement has been made by police officials as yet to the successor of Lieut.. Edward Wag- ner Jr., of the Second precinct. whose resignation takes effect on Nov, 1, there are several applicants for the vacancy and among the most promf- nent1y mentioned is Sergeant John Brown, who is at present acting lieu tenant in the Fourth precinct. Brown is one of the oldest sergeants on the police force at the present time, and the fact that he is at present acting in the capacity of a lieutenant leads to the belief that he is the logical candidate to succeed Wagner.
 The retirement of Lieut.. Wagner came as a surprise to other police of f1cers.s During his eighteen years of service as a member of the force his record has been one of, merit. Five or six years ago he sing1e-handed captured -Lugi Al1eve, wanted for house. breaking and attempted mur- der which was at that time and is still considered a brilliant bit of po- lice work.

The Right Treatment VIII Brea'
Your Shaekles.

You who are afflicted with Rheu-
matism know from experience just
how excruti4ting the pangs of the
disease are. You know also, If
you have had rheumatism for any
length of time that there is no real
relief to be expected from the use
of iiniments and lotions.
Rheuratism is a stubborn dis
ease, and its pangs and pains
cannot be wiped out as if by ma
gic. A disease that is SO full OF
torture and renders so many peo-
pie absolutely helpless, is deep
seated one; it is not on the sur
face, hence it cannot be reached
by external, surface remedies.
Lotions, iininents and ointnents
applied to the surface may in
some cases deaden the pain for the
time being, but until you attack the
disease at its foundation, you are
making no progress toward a
cure. Many forms of Rheumatism
are caused by millions OF tiny
germs that iRfest the blood, and
until the blood is absolutely freed
of these germs, there is no real
relief in sight.
In fact the longer you delay

blood, the further you are getting
from ridding yourself from the dis
ease And because so many people
treat the pain, and not the disease
itself, is one reason why Rheuma-
tism increases in severity year
by year.
The most satisfactory remedy
for Rheumatism IS S. S. s., because
it is one of the most thorough
blood purifiers known to medical
science. This fine old remedy
cleanses the blood of all impuri-
ties, and is a sure antidote to the
germs of Rheumatism. Being. pure
ly vegetable, without a particle
of mineral or chemical in its COM
position, it works by eliminating
and forcing out of the blood all
impurities, acting as tonic to the
entire system at the same time.
It has been used for more than
fifty years, and scores of sufferers
from Rheumatism give it unstinted
praise.
S. S. s. is sold by druggists ev-
erywhere, and any of them will
tell you that it is a thoroughly
honest and reliable old remedy.
