ms.de In these columns that the Chief
Consulting Physician of the United
Doctors, who have their permanent
Nebraska Institute located on the
second floor of the Neville block,
corner of 16th and Harney Sts.. Om
aha, Neb., would pay a short visit to
the Riley hotel at Plattsmouth, the
question has been asked many times:
Who are the United Doctors, and
what do they do? The answer is
this:
The United Doctors as the name
Implies is an association of expert
medical specialists who have united
to organize a new school of medi
cine; a new and more scientific and
positive system of curing human ail
ments. For centuries, the world has
been full of different "cuts" and
"Isms" of medicine. We had the
old root and herb doctor with his
bitter potions; the Allopath with cal
omel and quinine in heroic doses;
the Eclectic without his calomel; the
Osteopath and the Christian Scient
ist. We were doctored by heat, by
lectrlcity, by baths at the Hot
Springs and by a multitude of men
and methods. Some of the patients
were cured, some died who should
have been cured. It was Impossible
for the ordinary person to say which
method of treating diseases was the
best, the physicians of the various
schools were so biased that they
could see good only In their own
method; all others were necessarily,
bad
Evidently there Is good In all of
them, for they all cure some caHes,
also, there is bad in all, for they all
fall at times and allow misery to re
main or death to come where a cure
should have been effected.
A tremendous stride forward was
made when the association of the
United Doctors was formed. The
founders of this association consist
ed of the prominent specialists from
the various schools of practice
"Eclectics, Homeopaths, jAllopths
Regulars and Irregulars, nut and
agreed to drop their prejudices and
form a new system of treatment,
which would embrace all the good
"points of the old methods and leave
out the bad. The result of the ef
fort of these world famous special-
: Ists of the various schools, was the
, wonderful treatment now being used
by the United Doctqrs. All of this
waB not accomplished in a day or
two, but has taken years of patient
work by these specialists In their
- great Institutions In the east; Hom
eopaths, Eclectic, Allopaths, . all
working side by side, each throwing
away his old ideaB when he was con
vinced there was . something better,
until at last out of the old chaos and
confusion, came the new and perfect
system, as it Is now used by the
United Doctors.
The cost of these specialists was
great not only In the labor of form
ing the new system of treatment,
but also In the effort it cost them
to Ignore their prejudice In favor of
the various schools In which' they
were originally educated. But their
record has been great in health and
( happiness restored to hundreds and
'. thousands who were going to their1
graves In misery, pronounced incur
able by old methods.
The wonderful new system of

liver, kidneys, skin, heart, lungs,
bowels and stomach, including rheu
matism, paralysis, neuralgia, appen
dicitis, gall stones, piles, goiter, rep
ture, diseases of women and diseases
of men, which had been pronounced
incurable by other doctors.
Louis Schultz, a prosperous farm
er. living on R. R. No. 2, Platts
mouth, Neb., says that for twelve
years he had been treating with his
home doctors, those in Council
Bluffs, la., and the best ones In St
raul. Minn. He took the hot baths
n Lincoln, Neb., and even went clear
to Hot Springs, Ark., all of which
gave him no relief. In speaking of
bis case he says: "I went to the
United Doctors. They told me more
about myself and disease in ten min
utes than all the other doctors put
together in all the years before.
'Now my stomach gives me no
trouble. 1 eat anything and digest u
perfectly; my kidneys are better and
my rhemumatism Improving so rapid
ly In this short time, that I am sure
my recovery will be complete."
N. C. Carlson of Wausa, Neb.,
says, I am now as wen as l ever
was In my life. When I commenced
treatment with you, I was barely able
to walk, such was the pain I had.
Now, after taking your treatment for
five months, I enjoy perfect health."
Mrs. Alice Griswold of 1619 Fred
erick St., Omaha, Neb., says she had
appendicitis in a very severe form.
She . did not believe she could be
cured without a surgical operation,
but took the United Doctors treat
ment with little hope. After the
first two or three doses she began
to feel better and in less than a
month was entirely cured, and has
had no return of the trouble since.
These people were cured In their
homes, without surgical operation
and they are only a few out of the
thousands who have been cured by
the United Doctors at their various
Institutes throughout the United
States. These specialists have hun
dreds and thousands of testimonials
from cured patients on file at their
office. Any one Interested In any
names of patients who were cured of
that (Urease can get same by
writing to the United Doctors
at their Omaha Institute. These
testlmnoials are from responsible
people of Nebraska and were
given voluntarily out of the grati
tude of their hearts, so you can be
lieve Impllclty what they tell you.
It Is this wonderful all home treat
ment that the United Doctors are
bringing to Plattsmouth on Tuesday,
May 31, and while here will give free
consultation, free examination, and
free treatment except for the bare
cost of the medicine used.
If you are skeptical, write to the
United Doctors for the names and ad
dresses of patients whom they have
cured and you will be furnished with
as many as you may desire to Investi
gate.
Remember the United Doctors will
be here but one day and while here
will receive patients at the Riley ho
tel. If you are sick and suffering and
want to be made well and happy, call
on the doctor when he comes to
Plattsmouth.
A Farewell.
Ben Harrison was made the recipi
ent of a very pleasant farewell party
last evening by the members of his
Sunday school clnss of the Presby
terian church at the elegant home
of Mr. and Mrs. A. S. Will.. Guessing
games, stunts, social conversation and
the like were the principal amuse
ments and occasioned much merrli
ment.
One of the guessing games held
during the evening was one In which
names of authors were to be guessed
and In this contest Miss Mildred
Johnson captured the first prize, a
book and Miss Gertrude Morgan the
second prize, a box of blocks. Fol
lowing this slips of paper bearing
the first word of a proverb were
distributed and the guessers required
to guess the balance of the proverb.
This was quite a task and proved
quite a test on the memory of the
young people. MIsh Lucilo Gass car
ried of the first prize, a picture; and
Miss Mattle Larso nthe second prize,
a cloth doll.
Slips of paper were again distil
buted, requesting each to perform
some Btunt. Music, both vocal and
Instrumental, reading, speeches and
various other kinds of stunts too
numerous to mention, furnished a
spendld entertainment for the next
hour or so. During the evening
delicious refreshments were served
which were thoroughly relished by
c 11 after such strenuous work.

Eugene Walter' Great Melo-
Drama at the Parmele.
The William Grew company last
night closed their three nights en
gagement with the best production
of the entire engagement. This was
somewhat of a surprise to the audi
ence as the play selected was the
strongest and most powerful of all
three and required greater skill and
care in Its production than either
of the other two. "The Wolf" Is a
strong, virile and lifelike play, ting
ling throughout with the keen ac
tion of frontier life but also pulsing
with the powerful passions which stir
humanity throughout the world. It
is one of the sort or plays wnicn
appeal to human Interest and in
stinctively makes men remain unul
the denouncement at the close.
The Canadian woods are a far cry
from the prairie country and the
wonder of the play is that Eugene
Walter could take them for a setting
and transplant to their heart all the
passions of man and still hold them
together so that they appealed to the
audience here In the states. Yet he
has done so and none who attended
last evening could do other than say
he had done his work well. "The
Wolf," was far and away the best
thing the Grew people have done In
this city and there should have been
a packed house to have encouraged
their efforts,
The story of the play Is that old
old story of human life the passion
of man for woman. The characters
in brief are that of an American, de
bauched and base In his regard for
the woman, to whom all, of them
looked as victims ready for the hook,
from whom the finer sentiments
which stir men had fled. The young
French Canadian trapper whose soul
had not been seared with contact w ith
the vile things which follow in the
wake of can it be called civilization?
who meets the little Scottish girl
to whom his heart goes out and with
whom he elopes. This little girl is
living there in the woods with her
father who mistreats her and who Is
not thoroughly at himself. There are
other characters in the story and the
piny but the interest centers about
these. In the end the young Cana
dian and the American meet in the
Canadian forest at the portage of the
Little Bear river and fight a desper
ate duel for the possession of the
girl, the Canadian winning and end
ing the existence of the American en
gineer. This last scene Is the really"
big scene of the play and It Is filled
with that strong, stir of action which
grips the audience and causes them
to breathe a sigh of relief when the
end comes. Without doubt the play
deserved all the brilliant success it
has attained and Is distinctly a high
class melodrama worthy to live.
The company last evening In
handling the play did more than well.
It did much better than many an
other company pretensious appear
ance could have done. The parts
were all taken wun a nueiny xo
truth which was remarkable and
which sends the several actors from
the city with great praise for their
good work.
Mr. Grew assumed the exceedingly
difficult role of Jules Beaublen, the
young French Canadian trapper who
proves the hero In the end and to
whom falls the prize of the little
Scotch girl. He filled the difficult
part more than well, and barring a
bit of trouble with the Canadian ac-
cest which time will repair, his
characterization of the part will rank
with that of nine In ten actors. In
deed, he proved a great and most
pleasing surprise.
The role of the villain, Wm. Mc
Donald, the American engineer who
seeks to capture the Scotch girl from
Beaublen, was taken by Mr. Taylor
Bennett and he handled the part In
thorough keeping with the high class
of Mr. Grew. He did remarkably
well and the role could not have
been better sustained than It was.
Hilda McTavlsh, the Scotch lassie
about whom the storm of men's pas
sion raged, was taken by Miss Mabel
Cullen and she filled the role most
acceptably and was more than cap
able. Everything considered her part
ranked well with that of the two
stars mentioned above
Mr. Manuel Snyder assumed the
role of Andrew McTavls, the Scotch
settler and father of Hilda, and In
this difficult part his work was o
high class and deserving of coninien
dation.
Two mluor roles those B'atlste Le
Grand, trader and courier des bols
and George Huntley, an assistant to
McDonald, were In the hands of
Messrs. Robert Enders and Shclton
Wilson and they did as well with the
parts as they permitted, both sua
talning the roles with fidelity to the
Intentions of the writer of the play.
The piece was well staged and mor
Its comment In this respect. It can
was the best thing done In this city
during either of the engagements of
the company here and it will rank
as an Indication of the excellent work
which can be done by them. They-
carry with them to St. Joe, the best
wishes of many friends here and
hope for a return in the future.
New Ferry Road. .
Plattsmouth will have the new
road across the sand bar to the ferry.
This Is assured by the liberal man
ner in which the subscriptions have
been made for the project. The com
mittee to whom was left the task of
raising funds to build the road has
been meeting with much success and
they are able now to see their way
clear for the announcement of the
success of the affair and the con
struction of a road which will be way
above the usual rise of the Missouri.
This committee consisting of Messrs.
John Hatt, Jr., J. P. Falter and E. A.
Wurl has been energetically at work
and states that the needed funds are
In sight. They had reached the $200
mark this afternoon and they were
more than pleased at the outcome.'
They found that the business men of
the city were enthusiastic over the
project and it was not necessary to
explain to them what was wanted.
They cheerfully wrote their names
down and gave the amount which
they were expected to give. This is
the spirit which makes cities and
Plattsmouth has it.
The new road is to run from the
foot of Main street at the mouth of
the undergrade crossing of the Bur
lington to the old road at Rocky
Point and is to consist of a roadway
some thirty feet wide and not less
than four feet above the level of the
sand bar. It Is also proposed to
widen the road around the point to
the ferry and remove the rock which
lies in layers along the bottom of
that point. This rock will be thrown
in along the side of the roadway to
protect it from the water in the
event the river rises and the result
will be, It is hoped, a permanent way
for vehicles. It Is the expectation
that the county will lend its aid
and help on that part of the road be
yond the city limits and assure the
people of the Iowa side an easy and
convenient means of reaching the
city.
The success of the project is some'
thing which the promoters of It had
set their minds on and they are more
than glad that it has come so quick
ly and so easily. A roadway which
would be passable In all kinds of
weather has been demanded by those
living on the Iowa side of the river
for a long time and it has also been
asked by autoists and others who
preferred to cross on the ferry here
and go up the good roads on the Iowa
bottom to Omaha and Council Bluffs.
It is the expectation that the com
pletion of .this road will result in
turning a large percentage of the
automobiles which are passing to the
north and the south to this city where
cheap ferriage can be had and where
a level and smooth road will lead
to the north in to the Bluffs and
Omaha.
This road Is also regarded as a
starting point for the road which Is
projected to run to Rock Bluffs along
the river and which in time it is
hoped will extend to Nebraska City
The work is now started and all it
needs is to keep It going. The bus!
ness men who have done so well for
this road deserve the thanks of the
public as do the committee who have
so energetically worked for it.
