possesses a courage combined with marked physical pow ers that makes him a terror of evildoers and tho the pride of law abiding citizens few people can realize however r the trials exposures and even priva privations tiong to chic exposures I 1 the members bers of every municipal police and firo fire department arc are exposed compelled felled to bo be on duty at uncertain hours t ours subjected to the tile most inclement breather weather and often necessitated by the nature of their duties to protracted undertakings they endure a nervous and physical strain that is terrible such was the experience of I 1 mr curtin informer in former days and it is not surprising that he found himself suffering form a mysterious physical trouble in relating his experience to a representative of this paper he lie said at times when I 1 was on duty I 1 would feel an unaccountable weariness and lack of energy my appetite was ya also salso uncertain and my head seemed dull and heavy 1 I did not fully understand these troubles bu but t suppo sedas most people au I 1 was suffering from malaria I 1 tried to throw off tho the feeling but it would not go I 1 thought I 1 might overcome it but found I 1 was mistaken and 1 I finally became eo so badly off that it was wall almost impossible to attend to rn my duties I 1 have known any number be of men nien in the police and firo fire departments part ments of this country who have been afflicted as I 1 was and I 1 doubt not there are today to day similarly troubled troubled who he like myself did not know the cause or really what ailed them your present appearance macur tin does not indicate much physical debility eaid said the interviewer as be he looked at the pounds of bone and muscle standing nearly five feet eleven inches In chesin in height before him oli no that is altogether ether a tiling thing of the past and I 1 am I 1 happy py to eay fay that for more than a year IN I 1 have ciare enjoyed mw almost perfect health although 1 now that I 1 waa was on the road to 0 certain death by brights Brit hta disease of tho kidneys and travel traveling ingata at a very rapid pace 11 how did you come to recover BO so completely that is just what I 1 want to tell y you ou for I 1 believe it may be of great service to many others in in my pro fe aslon ito may possibly hear bear of it I 1 began the use ilse of a popular remedy carno st solicitation ofa of a nuni num ber of friends in this city and found to my ra great gratification that I 1 began feeling better this feeling continued and I 1 gained in strength and vigor until now I 1 am perfectly well ivell and wholly through the in instrumentality en of warners safe hare cure which I 1 believe to be the best medicine for policemen firemen railroad men or any other class clam of people exposed to danger or a change of weather ever discovered since my recovery I 1 have recommended it e every v er y we were r e and never knew a case wh where e e it f failed ed either to cure or benefit I 1 would not bo be without it under any consideration and I 1 am positive positive it is a wonderfully der fully valuable f e and at the same time entirely harmless remedy in deed I 1 sec see that dr gunn dean of tho the united states medical college of new york indorses endorses indor ses it in the highest terms so you experience little difficulty in the execution of your duties now curtin do you none whatever our department ans never in better condition than at t and never have bave any duy fear f ear of f som some of the e desperadoes desperado es whom yo you u have been the means of bringing bri neine to justice 1 I not in the least st such men donot retaliate partially because they have thele not the tile courage but oftener because cause they respect an officer who does his duty the policemen firemen letter carriers and other aubi public ic em employees I 1 in in tins this country have aparto a particularly clovees CIo ray tr trying when therefore a simple and pure reined that can restore and bu t batain tain the health of all such men is found it should bo be cause for great congratulation especially when recommended om mended by such a man as a su 1 in
