Taylor May Take Stecher's Place in Bout With Plestina Pete Loch, rnanager of Marin Plestina, the big Omaha heavyweight, is trying to make arrangements to substitute Jack Taylor of Lincoln, former Canadian' champion, for Joe Stecher, who was scheduled to meet Plestina here April 27. Just before the Stecher-Caddock match Stecher agreed to wrestle Ples tina in Omaha April 27 and Loch even went so far as to engage the Auditorium for that night. When Stecher lost he called the bout off, even though Loch and Plestina were willing to go through with it. Then Loch approached Earl Cad dock, but could not come to an agree ment with the new champ. But Taylor, it is believed, will meet Plestina. These grapplers were matched once before, but a hitch came in the agreement and it was called off. This time it is thought they will be brought together. Plestina is Omaha's best bet. Tay lor is Lincoln's entrant for the cham pionship and together they repre sent Nebraska's challengers since Stecher was vanquished. Both Ples tina and Taylor stand ready to meet Caddock. Both have challenged him. A match between the, two would be a good elimination contest. Chris Jordan Matched To Battle Fred Kramer The bigger they are the harder they fall. Thus quoth Chris Jordan, Omaha's representative among the 158-pound wrestlers, yesterday when he announced he had been matched to wrestle Fred Kramer, who only weighs 185 pounds, at Fullerton, eli., for $100 a side. The twenty five or thirty pounds he gives away in weight fails to bother Jordan in the least and he declares he will put the fixings to Mr. Kramer. Jordan is these days finding him self in the same plight other wres tlers who are just a little bit too good are finding themselves. He can't get any middleweights to meet him and has to go out of his class to get matches. Oscar Vitt, Detroit Star Infielder, is Suspended Detroit,' Mich., April 11. Oscar Vitt, star third baseman of the De troit Americans, who declined to sign his 1917 contract because of salary differences, was automatically sus pended today. Suspension was the result of his failure to report to Man ager Jennings before the opening game. It is understood that President Navin offered Vitt an increase in sal ary, but that the infielder demanded a much larger sum. It has been ru mored that Vitt will soon come to Detroit from his home in California to discuss his disagreement with Mr. Navin. "Bobby" Jones will play third base, at least temporarily.

Following the award of the bout and the championship to Earl Cad dock, reports that Stecher was only given seven minutes to return began to circulate. It was said that seven minutes after Caddock had touched Stecher's shoulders (o the mat for the second fall, that Gotch and Cad dock supporters called upon the referee to give the bout to the Iowan because Stecher had not appeared, and that the referee did it. The report gained circulation quickly and was heard on all sides Murphy declares it was eighteen minutes, three minutes longer than the allotted period, before the timekeep ers notified the referee that the rest period was up. Then it was five or six minutes at least before Sherman awarded the bout. Somebody asked us to call the period up at twelve minutes," said Murphy, "but we refused. We didn't even call it at fifteen minutes, but waited until eighteen minutes were up. It was at least five or six min utes after that, making u total time of twenty-three to twenty-five min utes, before the referee awarded the match. Gene Melady said to give Stecher all night to come out again if he wanted it, but we wanted to stick to the rules, so we told the referee at the end of eighteen minutes." Fgan Rests OraTea. Boston.

EUMATISM CAN NOT By Rubbing with Lini ments and Ointments If you are one of the many thousand victims of torturing Rheumatism, make up your mind today that you will aban don your efforts to rub the dis ease away with liniments, lo tions, ointments and local ap plications. Such treatment by itself is not only futile and de void of results, but is a waste of time, during which the disease is getting a firmer hold on your system. Rheumatism is a stubborn disease. It is not on the sur face, therefore you must not expect to be able to cure it with remedies applied to the sur face. No one ever yet effected a permanent cure in this way, so why should you continue to suffer while relying upon treat ment that has failed in thou sands of cases? The experience of others af flicted with Rheumatism is your best guide, and by follow ing their advice you can not only save yourself untold suf fering, but rid yourself of a disease that will eventually wreck your body and leave you helpless. Almost every victim of Rheumatism has practically the same experience. They are so impressed with the pains and sultenng of the disease, and are so anxious to get rid of them that they have treated the pains alone, and overlook ed their cause. They have rub bed with liniments, lotions and ointments in an effort to get temporary relief, with no chance of doing themselves any permanent good. buch was the experience of Mr. Caspus Bibb, of 2424 Tenth Ave., Bessemer, Ala., who writes to tell how he found re lief from this terrible afflic tion.

Any physician will" tell you that Rheumatism is a deep seated blood disease. The pain is not the disease itself, but merely a symptom nature's warning to you that you have been attacked. The only intel ligent treatment, therefore, is through the blood; treatment directed toward eliminating the disease germs from the blood. For years nearly all the pre scriptions used by the medical profession were those contain ing iodide of potash or mer curial 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 so successful in the treatment of Rheumatism and other blood disorders is the fact that it is a purely vegetable remedy, being made from roots and herbs gathered direct from the for ests. It 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. It is sold under an absolute guarantee that it is purely vegetable. Our medical department is maintained for the benefit of the. afflicted, and if you will write fully about your case you will be given complete advice as to the treatment necessary for your individual case, for which no charge is made.
