CURES IT Every variety of Rheumatism is caused by an excess of uric acid in the blood; the different forms of tire disease depending on whether this uric acid settles in the nerves, muscles or joints. In Sciatica it is the nerves which are attacked, the muscular form shows the muscles to be the seat of trou ble, while manifestations of articular Rheumatism are evidence that the Joints are being diseased. To cure Rheumatism the uric acid must be re moved from the blood; the circulation must be made pure.

The institution wanted an eleven and the manager took the customary way of having one formed. Among those who reported to the coach on the school athletic field that day in September was a sturdy, good looking, compact, con fident piece of masculinity. He an swered to the roll when the name Brickley was called. He was dark haired and had eyes of Irish blue. He had the fighting qualities of that race. He was a scrapper from the drop of the bon net. If you want to know how Brick ley fared, pick up the public prints and read how the Crimson of Har vard floated to triumph over the Orange and Black of old Nassau. Scan the columns of copy that have been written telling how the lads of Cambridge slew the Tiger, . and then you will find how Brick ley kicked Princeton out of the championship. Weighs 180 Pounds. And now, of course, you want to know something about Brickley. Very well, you shall have it. Brick ley is now 23 years old. stands 5 feet 8 inches above the ground and when the scales touch the 180- pound mark, why, they hit Charley's avoirdupois. The coach at Everett that season was Ted Jennings. The latter had been the greatest halfback which Everett had turned out previous to that time. He went subsequently to Dartmouth, where the name is still numbered among those who did yeoman service for the green on the gridiron. Jennings, in his elementary in struction,had the men fall on the ball and pass it. The system of coach ing gradually broadened until there came the line-up. Young Brick ley, then a freshman, was shunted to the second string. He stayed there during one half. At the shank of the first half the subs took the ball. The signal was shouted. The ball was snapped. Brickley started. He squirmed around the end. He dodged the secondary defense. He uncorked a burst of speed. He skipped 60 yards down the field for a touch down. Back to the center of the field came the ball. The first eleven kicked off; straight to C. E. Brick ley. Again the brilliant kid deftly caught the whirling sphere. Once more he tucked the pigskin under his arm and was away like a flash. Not an opposing tackle reached him and again he had scored for the subs. Makes the First Eleven. That settled hie status. Jen nings yanked him out of tlte sec ond string and threw him in as fullback on the varsity. He re mained there four years. He made all-interscholastic teams three of HIE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND .NEW S. TUESDAY. NOVEMBER 12. 1912 his four years at Everett. He soon became known as the beet school boy back in New England. Charley readily measured, too, with any school boy back field man in the East. His diversified tal ents included everything within the line of academic and esoteric foot ball. He tore through the line with the power of a locomotive. He eluded the ends and skirted by the secondary defense in wonderful bursts of speed; On the defense he proved a stal wart. Rarely did he fail to nail his man when the secondary back was called upon to get the man with the ball, after the end had smashed the interference. But he did not rest his fame as a school boy entirely on this. He studied kicking. He became a mas ter like Billy Bull, the famous punt er and kicker of Yale. But Brick ley did not care so much about dis tance kicking. He mastered the art of kicking that scored. As a drop kicker he excelled any back in the East, even when in high school. His drop kicks often went 40 yards. Sometimes he even over topped the crossbar with the ball from distances that ran from 40 to 5.) yards. In fact, he was a verita ble Pat O'Dea as an interscholas tic star. Thus did his four years at Ev erett hold for him the future prom ises that were fulfilled when he beat Princeton with his cunning foot. In interscholastic circles he brought Everett to the pinnacle of champion by his dashing, doughty and daring efforts. His runs armmd the end made Somerville. Medford and other high-class schools bite the dust. His course at Everett finished. Brickley went to Exeter for two years to prepare for Harvard. At the latter preparatory school—a "farm" for Harvard, to drop into the vernacular of baseball-Gus Zeigler, the noted Pennsylvania lootball player, was the coach. The fame of Brickley. had been embla zoned before Charley's arrival in the New Hampshire town where Exeter academy is seated. He easily made the academic eleven. Andover is Exeter's great est lival. Both were founded by the Phillipses, and the feeling be the two academies on the field of athletics is of the keenest sort. Mahan Stops Him. The yearly contest between the two brings to the gridiron where io game is staged a crowd that lacks none of the luster of a big college game. Numbered among the alumni of Andover and Exeter ■are some of the greatest football Players who ever donned the mole skins. But to return to Bricklev. He maoe the eleven. Then came the day of the great football game be tween the keen rivals three vears ago. Andover had found a for Brickley. She found it in E.l die Mahan, recently elected can tarn of the Harvard freshmen, and who Will be varsity material next season. *• Brickley had Exeter's hopes Pinned in his prowess and the Power o r His boot s . ip oned without Mahan. Ami >ver U e y Ml’ Or BriCklf - ' Shp the fellows m the back field. But she spotted and espied him every time. Chai ley would start an end run. He would be smothered when the end and secondary backs often a pair of them, would pile on him pell mell and together. His star went into the deseend ancy in that game, while Mahan's reputation scintillated. Two years ago this was the same; Bricklev's Exeter reputation was shattered ‘ “ne year ago last September tie entered Harvard. He made the freshman team, was elected its cap tain. and scored most of its points. I’he Harvard youngsters trimmed File and Princeton, and achieved the enviable record of having .me ot the greatest teams in the history of tne Crimson freshmen.

Georgia Carl Morris, Who Will Battle Keating Here Tonight, Is Sure He Has Chance To Be Champ CARL MORRIS still believes that he has a chance of be coming the heavyweight cham pion of the world, and tonight he will endeavor to climb a step high er on the pugilistic ladder by stop ping Jack Keating, who claims the honor of being Canada's champion. Nothing is known of Keating around this neck ot' the woods. He may be a bearcat t>r he may be a bum. But Morris is a big card, and the fans will probably turn out to see him work. The Dixie Athletic club plans to bring Morris back against Jack McFarland. Jim Stew art and Tom Kennedy. It is the intention of the promoters to make -Morris a local favorite, and work him as often as possible. The big fellow worked out yes- terday at the club, and looked pret ty good. He has one bad fault, however, and that is of trying to block and lead at the same time. This naturally takes all the force out of his punches. Carl is try ing to learn to be clever, and it looks like a mistake. He is big enough and strong enough to wade in and take a chance. "I like this city, and hope that I can afford to stay here for the next two months.” said Morris today. "I think that bouts between Stewart and Kennedy and yours truly would prove mighty interesting, and 1 will stay here for those fellows if I can be guaranteed enough money.” For the semi-wind-up, Mike Saul and Eddie Hanlon will mingle for six rounds. Frank Baker and Ed Lovell are booked for a six-round preliminary. A battle royal will open the card.
