THE OMAHA DAILY BEE : 8UNDATF , JUNE 21 , 1801-SIXTBEN PAGES.
This woman was buried alivc.yom may sayor at least ready to be.because doctors had all given her up. What a world oft
thought these few lines convey ? They mean simply this : An unfortunate human being , suffering from a complicatio
of diseases , lay on her pallet surrounded by her mourning friends and relatives. "Is there no hope. Doctor
breathlessly inquired. One after another the learned men shake their heads and retire. The most prominent of the
tors , one who enjoys a large and lucrative practice here in Omaha , said to Mr. Nicholson , the brother of the
woman , whom the doctors declared Tost"Your sister will die in a few hours. " Almost heartbroken the brother held
hurried consultation with his friends , and they resolved to have Dr. C. Gee Wo , the Chinese Physician , as a last hope
He saw her and was told what the doctors had just said. He then examined the patient and startled everyone by telli
ing them that in one week the patient would be out of bed , if not entirely cured , provided they \vould implicitly follow
his directions. Read what happened. Flow marvelous ? Let Mrs. Nicholson tell her story herself.
" About seven years ago I was living in this city and was quite wealthy by the death of my husband , who left me a valuable parcel of property near the )
ostofficc , and other valuables. On account of his death , and also losing my children and the worry and sorrow caused by these afflictions , my health began to rapidly ddf
dine , and 1 found myself suffering fiom a complication of chronic diseases. 1 doctored in Omaha , but received no relief. Then 1 began to travel all'over the United
States , taking in the lamous healtli resorts with which this country auoumis. Still no ncip. Then 1 i returned to Omaha and sold my property and traveled ail over lurope *
hoping to get cured. After spending nearly all of mv money on doctors'fees and medicines. I again retmned to Omaha , broken down in bojy and mind , a mere wteclK
fastjo'sing all my money , and despondent of ever being cured again. 1 began to doctor with the most prominent physicians in Omaha. At this time I was suffering fronj
Female Weakness , Rheumatism , Heart Disease , and at last Hemorrhage of the Lungs. The doctors told my brother I could live only a few hours at most. 1 know th $
doctors tried to do their best , therefore I will not mention their names.v My friends" decided to take me up to Dr. C. Gee Wo , the Chinese doctor's office. They took mfe
upstairs on a litter. I was just like a skeleton. Dr. Gee Wo examined me and made me anxiously happy , the first genuine joy 1 had experienced for years , by confidently
exclaiming ; ' 1 will have her'on her feet in one week , " - ,
" 1 have given the doctor permission to use my name and picture , arid you will see by the cut taken after being cured by Dr. C. Gee Wo that I am enjoying ctf
cellent health , Since taking the Chinese doctor's medicines I have not been sick a single day. I write this , hoping I may be the means of saving some other poor uhfortuiw
ate from premature . death. I can honestly recommend Dr. C. Gee Wo as a wonderful physician , as I tried doctors all over the world , and never found one able to restore ;
me to good i healtli until I i met iu > . C. GEE wn . . ' < MR.S. NICHOLSON , 718 North 16th Street , Omaha. " '

OMAHA , Neb. , Juno 17. To the Sporting
Editor of TUB Ilr.n : Now that the season of
outdoor sports U fnlrly opened , tuny I not call
your attention to ono class that I think Is
sauly neirlootcd In Omatial I refer to horse
racing. I mean good , old-fashioned , honest
trials of speed and endurance by thorough
bred horses. There are at least three good
reasons why. In mv opinion , a series of ilrst
class races should bo indulged in here this
icason.
1 , Thcro Is a flno string of fleet-footed
racers owned by western brooders that would
bo ready for such a contest if reasonable In
ducements wcro oTorod. (
2. Thcro Is no p > ibllo entertainment that
the pcoplo will moro liberally patronUo dur
ing the summer season , inul
ll. All our surrounding sister cities are
awnko to the Importance of this subject.
Besides it would advertise Omaha and
bring us thousands of summer visitors. Le
gitimate horse racing Is enjoyed bv nearly
all classes , and If the business men of Omaha
would awuko to the Importance of the sub
ject and make up some liberal pursjis , a string
of llyors could bo procured that would attract
thousands of people from all parts of thostato
hnd western Iowa. The facts are that Kansas
City. St. Joseph , Sioux City nnd even Coun
cil jiluffs havu moro enterprise In this direc
tion than Omaha , and nil this at the expense
of Omaba , both from the standpoint of pleas-
sure and business. Western breeders have
not boon npgloctlng these beautiful and Hoot-
foot od anlmalb , and I am certain that right
hero within n radius of UK ) miles of Omaha
can bo found a score at least of horses that
can batter 2M : ! und may do much bettor.

lult in the near future In u few Ilrst clans en
