Don’t Give Up Hope Because Your Doctor Has Proneunced You Incurable From Consumption ELECTRO-CHEMISTRY cures many cases whicl) under the older methods of treatment are incurable. Here is anoOther testi- monial from a sufferer who had been given up by his doctors: “My doctors gave me up. They said they could do nothing for me, as I had consumption. Their treatment did me no good. I reduced in weight from 137 to 108 pounds. I coughed, my blood did not circulate, my feet and hands were cold and I was so weak I could do nothing. In this condition I took up the Electro-Chemic treatment. “In eight days I have gained eight pounds. My blaod is cir- culating, my cough is better, the chest pains are leaving me, I can eat well, my food agrees with me and my strength is ripi'dly re- turning.” (Signed) 5 ALBERT TALLEY, 765 Mission St., Waldo House.

The cases of Richard Cornelius, presi- dent of the Street Carmen’s Unlon, and J. Kean, business agent of the City Front Federation, charged with - refusing to move on when requested fo:do so by Po- liceman J. F. Welch on Clay street on Friday afternoon, were dismissed by Po- lice Judge Conlan yesterday morning. There were direct contradictions in the | testimony given by Welch and Cornelius. Welch testified that Cornelfus and. Kean were standing in front of Murray & Ready’s employment office, 63¢ Clay street, with three other men and Corne- llus sald they were not in front of the employment office and were not talking to any men. Kean was ndt called upon to_testify. The Judge asked Welch how many men as a rule were in the employment office at a time and Welch replied, “about 200.” The Judge sald should be arrested for violating the cubic air ordinance. He blamed them for be- ing the means of blocking the sidewalk with their bulletin boards and sald they were entirely at fault. In dismissing the cases the Judge said the officer had made a mistake in arresting the defendants, as they were not the class of men who stood in front of an employment office. —_——————— JAPANESE SMUGGLER WILL BE DEPORTED Stringent Proceeding Against Mer- chant Who Had Violated the Customs Revenue Laws. United States District Judge de Haven denied yesterday an application for a writ of habeas corpus for the release of S. Toda from the custody of the officers of the steamship Coptic. Toda s a Japanese, | who has just completed an imprisonment of thirty days in the County Jall.

August Opens Quietly, but With Good Outlook for Business. San Francisco realty sales in July amounted to $3,800,500, according to Magee & Sons’ Real Estate Circular. Large | transactions previously consummated but i not recorded until July served to swell | the total. In making an analysis of the deals of July the Real Estate Circular says: An examination of the records shows that the sales in the 50-vara section alone amounted to nearly one-half of the totals for the entire city for the month. The largest sales closed were those of the old Stock Exchange build- ing on Pine street, below Montgomery, for $300,000 and the San Franclsco News Com- | pany building on Geary street, west of Powell, for $215,000. There are plenty of buyers for £ood _property In the best business portion of the 50-vara section with very little for sale The 100-vara section, Mission, Potrero and South San Francisco are nearly up) to the high average of recent months, while many people are predicting that real estate in San Franelsco has reached the limit cf high price | In mearly every case it is discovered that these prophets are neither buyers nor sellers. The best property in San Francisco can to- | dey be soid for a higher price than ever be- | fore. This does not mean that prices for the | best bustness property will not go higher, but | it does mean that buyers to-day will pay an advance on apparently top prices for the best business property. | Mrs. E. 8.
