POWDER S— hat il ilure and ate SIMPLE EXPLANATION OF THEORY GF OSTEOPATHY | | | | Man Is Learning that Health, Once; Lost, Can Only Be Restored by Natural Means. We are living in a day of reason, ! thought and consideration. Man is learning that an assurance of health | rests in a natural environment, and that health, once lost, can only be restored by natural means. For two thousand years, plodded the highways and byways, and exhausted the man chemical king-| dom searching for that indefinable “something” that would drive dis-| ease from the body; but like the old grandfather who searched “high and‘ low”" for his spectacles that were on | his forehead, this “something” was| found in the body itself; and needs| but to befree and unobstructed to re- store and to preserve health. . This fact forms the foundation of the osteopathic ment. The study kegzins with the won- derful anatomical and physiological provisons with which the living| organisms combat the injurious agencies surrounding them. That many persons remain well, that many ill persons regain health, are facts so common and well known, they do not excite wonder; and yet when we reflect on the innumerable external causes of disease, poisons, unwholesome foods, injuries, germs, social, clematic and temperature changes, etc.,which the living organ- ism must successfully combat in order to remain well—we realize that the maintenance of healthis a marvelous occurrence. When one becomes acquainted with the changes which occur in the bodv when it is the seat of various diseases, such as the recovery from a broken bone, a burn, typhoid | fever, tuberculoses, chronic catarrah, acute Bright’s disease, nervous pros- | tration, etc., it awakens in him a; great admiration of, and wonder at, | nature’s power. The maintenance of health and the recovery from disease are dependent upon certain conditions the fulfilment of which in- variably results in health. Unimpeded nerve force and urob- structed blood are absolutely essen- tial to health. A mechanical disturbance to one or the other may be brought about within the body by pressure! being brought to bear upon the nerves or vessels as they pass be- tween the bones, muscles and liga- ments. The osteapathic treatment of these conditions resolves itself into the locating of these disturbances and! the removal of them by mechani- cal means; then the natural vital forces are freed, normal circulation is restored and health retrieved. Oestopathy is not exclusively a system of mechanical theraputics although mampulation enters very largely into the work, It is a system that includes all methods of healing that have been found trustworthy and scientific. Do not confound osteopathic | practice with any of the methods]| that aim to reach and cure dis- sease through the patient’s mind. Our work is wholly with the body, dealing directly with bones, muscles, nerves and vessels, and bears no relation whatever to Christian science, magnetic healing, mind cure, hypnotism, or any like cult. As many people do not distinguish between our science and these methods, we feel warranted in put- ting special emphasis-on the fact system of treat-| that they are utterly opposed. DR. J. H.

Harry Smith, who was charged | with assault in the first degree, was given a preliminary hearing before Justice H. A. Simons, and upon the consent of County Attorney Henry Funkley, Smith was allowed to plead on that date. Smith waived examination and was released on $1500 bail, his bondsmen being J. W. Johnson and Ole Ferguson of Cass Lake. Smith is specifically charged with having attempted to shoot Frank Coppersmith, a brakeman on the M. & I railway, recently, while Smith was on the north-bound passenger train, near Tenstrike. Accounts differ somewhat, but it appears that | Smith had some trouble with Cop- persmith, on the train, and that a gun was pulled from his pocket and discharged at Coppersmith. Smith claims he did not pull the gun, while others who were present state posi- tively that he attempted to shoot Coppersmith and would have suc- ceeded but for the interference of bystanders. M’'DONALD MURDER TRIAL. Sister-in-Law of Murdered Man on the Stand. Chicago, Jan. 29.—Mrs. Archibald Guerin, the wife of the brother of Wenster Guerin, for whose murder Mrs. Dora McDonald is now on trial, was on the witness stand throughout the greater part of the day. Mrs. Cuerin was the young woman of whom, it is claimed by the state, Mrs. McDonald was jealous. Since the murder she has married Archibald Guerin. She testified that Mrs. Mec- Donald had accused her of trying to win Webster Guerin away from her and declared that she could not do it. She also told of threats made by Mrs. McDonald against the man whom she afterwards shot. The cross-examination of Mrs. Guerin was exceedingly severe and several times Judge Brentano inter- fered to protect the witness from what he considered improper questions. On redirect examination Mrs. Guerin described a supper at the home of Richard Baugham, saying that Mrs. McDonald “was loving Webster nearly all the time.” “What do you mean by loving?” asked Assistant State’s Attorney Rit- tenhouse. “She had her arm around him and was kissing him all the time.” DELAY IN WALSH CASE. One of His Attorneys Dead and Two Seriously 11, Chicago, Jan. 29.—The attorneys for John R. Walsh have asked for a post- poncment of the arguments in favor of a new trial for Mr. Walsh, who was recently convicted on a charge of wrongful use of the funds of the Chi- cago National bank. Of the four attorneys who appeared for Mr. Walsh during the recent trial Samuel R. Hamill is dead, William J. Hynes is critically ill and may not re- cover, Edward O. Ritscher is also {ll and John S. Miller is the only omne able to attend to business. Mr. Miller, In asking for a postponement, said that he had been unable personally to do all of the preliminary work and was therefore compelled to ask for an oxtension of time. It is believed thaf Judge Anderson will allow the request of the defendant’s attorneys. WOULD WORK FOR JOHN D. Army of Unemployed Appears at Rockefeller Estate. Tarrytown, N. Y., Jan. 29.—Follow- ing the announcement that John D. Rockefeller had directed the superin- ‘endent of his estate at Pocantico Hills to give work on the estate to the Tarrytown men who are out of employment an army of the unem- ployed, the largest ever seen in this part of the state, marched down on the estate. Many of them were from New York city and other places with- in a short distance. The superintend- ent declined to furnish work for any of the applicants except those who live in Tarrytown or in the immediate vicinity of the estate, saying that it was necessary to take care of them first and that there was not work enough to take care of the unem- ninvad feam-a diatanna 1 DENOUNCED IN HOUSE McGavin of Blineis Condemns In- ternational Marriages. WO PARTICULAR GIRL IN VIEW Refers in General to the “Many ‘Wo- men of This Country Who Are Sac- rificing Their Souls and Honor Upon the Altar of Snobbery and Vice.” ‘Washington, Jan. 26.—International matringes of American heiresses to titled foreigners were denounced on the floor of the house of representa- tives by Mr. McGavin of Illinois, who spoke on the bill of his colleague, Mr. Sabath, to tax all dowries and ‘titled husbands. Mr. McGavin's remarks were made under the license of general debate. At times they provoked laughter and applause on both sides of the chamber. The house, he said, was in commit- tee of the whole on the state of the Unlon, but he wanted to know what the state of the Union was and what | it was coming to “in view of these internatfonal unions between Amer- fcap helresses and alleged nobilities from abroad.” He wondered what the carly pioneers would think and say if from their graves they could look back and see so many of the women of this country “sacrificing their souls and honor upon the altar of snobbery and vice.” He expressly stated that he had reference to no particular American girl, nor had he prejudice against all titled men, but he referred “only to those who have a monocle on their eyes and an idiotic look upon their faces—those who have neither the disposition to do good nor the ability to do harm.” Good Money for Soiled Nobility. Mr. McGavin said the United States triumphantly had referred to the fact that as between it and other nations the balance of trade was in its favor, “but,” he said, “nowhere in the sum- mary can be found a reference to such trade as that in which soiled and frayed nobility is exchanged for a few million American dollars wrung from the lambs of Wall street, with a wo- man thrown in to boot.” Fvery day, he declared, seemed to be a bargain day in New York city, “whether it be for a yard of ribbon or a pound of flesh; whether it be npon the retail counter of Broadway or the auction block of Fifth avenue.” In these days, he said, wealthy American girls traveling abroad when ihey see some remmant of royalty, en- thusiastically exclaim: “Oh, mamma, buy me that.” An interpreter then is secured, a bargain is made, the money is produced and the girl is gone to soon return a sadder but a wiser one. In conclusion Mr. McGavin said: “While I have engaged in some crit- icism of those particular ones who have made a mockery of the most sacred relations of life—of those not satisfied with any o:liier name but ‘Countess Srag? ‘Countess Mac- aroni’—I want to say one word in tribute to those true American women who have spurned the wiles of earls, lords and counts for the love of his majesty—an American citizen.” SIGNED AT WASHINGTON. Franco-American Reciprocity Arrange- ment Completed. ‘Washington, Jan. 29.—Secretary Root and Ambassador Jusserand have signed the Franco-American reci- procity arrangement drawn under sec- tion 3 of the Dingley act. The agreement concedes to France an abatement of 20 per cent in the duties on champagne and sparkling wines imported into America. For its part the French government confirms the minimum tariff rate now accorded to American products. Provision also is made for the appointment of a com- mission of three members on each side to cansider and report upon pos- sible amendments to the existing trade resulations in both France and America to facilitate exchange. It is explained at the state depart- ment that no considerable reductions of French duties on American products are recorded in this new arrangement for the simple reason that America has already been enjoying minimum tariff rates in many cases, solely by special concession of the French gov- ernment. ‘In other words, the Amer- ican exporter was not legally entitled to claim the benefits of these lower duties; they were merely extended as a favor by the French government in anticipation of the reduction on cham- pagne duties and the amelioration of certain custom house regulations and certain provisions of the new Amer- ican pure food-law about to be applied 10 French alimentary products.

The minutes of the meefings of the board of grounds and buildings at which Sanderson was given the con- tract for the capitol furnishings and Joseph M. Huston was appointed archi- tect for the hoard wete also offered in evidence.

JEROME SPRINGS SURPRISE Prosecuting Attorney Calls No Ex- perts to Combat the Testimany of the Defense Regarding the Insanity | '_- of the Defendant. New York, Jan. 29.—The Thaw case is completed, as far as the introduc- tion of evidence is concerned. The prosecution’s rebuttal was unexpected- ly brief, District Attorney Jerome causing distinet surprise by announc- Ing that he would call no expert wit- g nesses to rebut the testimony of the alienists introduced. by the defense. it was said he would rely upon argu- ing that a competent case of legal in- sanity had not been made out. His move also praveuts the defense from calling the state’s experts of last year in sur-rebutial to question them as to their dcclarations before the Ilunacy commission that Thaw was an inecur- ahle paranoic and likely to do violence if allowed to go free. The proceedings were materially speeded by an agreement of counsel to read to the jury the testimony of Abra- ham H. Hummel coacerning the affi- davit Evelyn Nesbit is said to have signed in 1903 charging -cruelties against Harry Thaw as given at the last triel. This arrangement obviated the necessily of holding court on Blackwells island, where Hummel is serving a sentence. In reiurn for the concession by the defense Mr. Jerome allowed the will of the defendant to o in evidence. The festament had been held up for want of proof as to its custody. The willssets apart a sum of $50,000 for purposes of investigation in case the mal:er should die a violent or sus- picious death. The prosecution brought several wit- nesses forward to say Thaw seemed rational the night of the tragedy. The prosecutioh and defense will occupy a day each in summing up and Judge Dowling will take part of an- other day in delivering his charge to the jury. Warner Miller Is Bankrupt.

KIDHEYS ARE FIRST TO WEAR OUT WITH AGE Says Few Persons Know What to do When Kidneys are Weak & and Sick. The great majority of men and women at the age of 50 years begin to feel the first signs of advancing age in some form of kidney trouble and bladder weakness. Few are entire free from that torturous dis- ease, rheumatism, which is not a disease in itself, but a symptom of deranged function of the kidneys which have becoms clogged and sluggish, failing 1n their duty of sifting and straining the poisonous waste matter, uric acid, etc., from the blood, permitting it to remain and decompose, settling about the joints and muscles, causing intense pain and suffering. The bladder, however, causes the old folks the most annoyance, es- pecially at nights and _early morn- ing. A noted authority in a recent article stated that he has wonderful success with the old-time ‘“‘vege- table treatment. He states: “‘Of the sixteen cases of bladder trouble and rheumatism which have been treated with this treatment only one very complicated case failed | to fully yield to its remarkable influence. It is the most harmless treatment I have ever found to clean the system of rheumatic poi- sons; remove irritation of the blad- der and relieve urinary difficulties of the old people. It is a true vitalizing tonic to the entire kid- ney and urinary structure, reinvig- orating the entire system.” What he terms ‘“old vegetable treatment”’ consists of the following simple prescription, the ingredients which can be obtained from any good pharmacy at small cost: Com- pound Kargon, one ounce, Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. -Shake well in a bottle and take in teaspoonful doses after each meal and upon going to bed, also drink plenty of water. This prescription, though simple, is always effective in the diseases and afflictions of the kidneys and bladder. «demand for stronger beverages. filled hand engraved case, A Written Guaraute Near the Lake. 17 fine Ruby and Saffire Jewels in gold settings, Com- ponsating Balance, Patent Micrometric Regolator, Breque Hair Spring hardened and Tempered in form, Double Surk Dial—made to me:t the demand for a geutleman’s high grade watc.
