The children belonging to the
Sunday school of the Swedish church
in this city enjoyed a most delightful
time Saturday evening at the church,
when they had their annual Christ
mas program, and that it was a grand
success in every way was the verdict
of the members of the congregation
present. A number of recitations
were given, together with musical
numbers that served to make the
event one of the greatest of pleasure
to everyone, and the pupils taking
part in the program covered them
selves with credit and everyone
heartily agreed that it was one of
the most pleasant events that had
been held there for some time. The
pastor in charge of the church work,
Rev. K. Carlson, was present on the
happy occasion, coming down from
his home at Lincoln to attend the
festival, as well as to conduct the
preaching services at the church yesterday.

Mrs. Fret! Stewart, who for the
past few days has been quite ill at
her home in this city, is reported as
being greatly improved and is now
considered out of danger, although
for several days her condition was
such as to cause her family and
friends the greatest apprehension.
She was engaged in arranging for the
Christmas festivities at her home,
and working rather hard brought on
an attack of heart trouble.
Mis. TI. Hemple, who has been ill
since Christmas eve at her home on
.outn iniru street, is reported as
being slightly improved, but is still
confined to her bed, but her family
and friends feel that she is much bet
ter than a few days ago. Her age
and the excitement over the fire
Christmas which destroyed the store
of her nephew, L. li. Egenberger, has
greatly served to aggrevate her ill
ness.

Th3 Kind You Have Always Bought
81gntwe of
The question, "What kind of dis
ease do you treat?" has been asked
me so often by people who are un
educated in regard to osteopathic
treatment that I am led to believe
that the public take me for a special
ist of some sort, and the object of
this article is to make it clear just
what diseases or conditions I treat
I do not specialize in any particular
tnsease. i am a doctor and am
qualified according to the laws of Ne
braska to practice healing in thi-
state. I treat ALL DISEASES which
can benefit. This includes both
acute and chronic conditions of all
kinds.
Now, this does not mean that I
"cure everything." I did not say that.
I have no especial treatment for can
cer, insanity, etc. I do not pretend to
treat what is known to be incurable.
but I have successfully treated sev
eral conditions which had been
diagnosed wrong by ofher doctors. I
do not "cure the incurable," but I
have cured diseases which were
thought by several good specialists to
be incurable.
How does osteopathy differ from
medicine ?
Here it is in Dr. Still's own words:
"Osteopathy today represents the
substitution of spiral treatment for
internal medication. It has no fight
against the bath-tub and the diet
kitchen, but against pill.? and perund."
Osteopathy is dubbed "a system of
rubbing" by those who are uninform
ed. In vindication of the charge of
being a "rub doctor" I will say that
the most up-to-date medical books
recommend "rubbing, kneading or
massage" for a large variety of dis
eases. If you don't believe it come
to my office and be shown. I have an
up-to-date medical library ami I will
be only too glad to prove any or all
of my assertions on medical author
ity. However, I do r.ot pretend to
combat disease by "rubbing." Osteo
pathy is not rubbing and osteopaths
do not rub to cure disease. Rubbing
is a medical procedure and is employ
ed motly in surgical practice.
Do not mistake osteopathy for
chiropractic. Osteopathy is as differ
ent from chiropractic as the ministry
is different from the practice of law.
It is not my purpose here to knock
preachers, lawyers nor chiropractors,
but I want it understood that I am
neither a preacher, a lawyer nor a
chiropractor, but I am a doctor of
osteopathy. I treat all conditions that
any doctor can treat successfully, an 1
some which they cannot. This in
cludes minor surgery of all kinds
fractures, dislocations, etc., as well as
diseases of women, obstetria, in-
fectuous diseases, fevers, etc.
Now, the fact that you do not un
derstand how I can cure infectuous
diseases, levers, etc., may (to your
mind) argue against me, but do you
know how the M. D. treats them ?
Certainly not. Yet he treats them.
It took me three years in college to
learn how to do it successfully. How,
then, can you know how it's done?
My business is to heal the sick. I
don't know nor care what your's is.
There's an old English saying, "The
proof of the pudding is in the eating."
If you're sick give me a trial and see
WHAT I can do, and don't worry
about HOW I do it. There are sev
eral reasons why I do not use drugs;
one is because I can get better results
without them; another is because the
best medical writers condemn their
use.
The price of treatment at the office
is $1.50.
Outside of office, ?2.00.
For treatment in country add livery
bill and $2.00.

In two families of this city the
Christmas of 1014 will be remembcicd
in a most pleasant manner, as yester

young men who in the years to come
will be citizens of this flourishing city.
The stork paid a hurried visit to the
home of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Sedlock,
jr., in the west part of the city, yes
terday morning, and deposited in their
household a fine new ?on and heir to
the great joy and delight of the par

family and Joe is about the proudest
man in town over the new arrival.
The home of Mr. and Mrs. I-red L.
Egenberger was also gladdened by
the advent of a new ron, who made
his appearance yesterday morning,
and is a fine little lad in every way

GOOD R1DANCE OF SOME
BAD RUBBISH LAST NIGHT
Last night Charles McCauley, who
was placed in the city jail for safe
keeping Saturday evening, succeeded
in making his escape from the build
ing by prying open the lock on the
building, and has so far not been
heard from and no great effort is be-
ing made to find him, as it is satis
factory if he decides to remain away
indefinitely. He was quite badly in
toxicated Saturday on the street and
finally was locked up in order that
he would not make himself a nuisance
to everyone on the street by his con
duct. The case is one that in its way
is certainly a pitiable one, where a
young man of good opportunity has
fallen a victim to the drink habit and
no one is able to do the least thing
with him, although every effort has
been made to take care of him and
look after his welfare, but he seems
to be unable to do anything with his
affliction and his actions have at dif
ferent times given the authorities a
great deal of trouble.
How to Bankrupt the Doctors.
A prominent New York physician
says, "If it were not for the thin
stockings and thin soled shoes worn
by women the doctors would probably
be bankrupt." When you contract a
cold do not wait for it to develop into
pneumonia, but treat it at once. Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy is intended
especially for coughs and colds, and
has won a wide reputation by its
cures of these diseases. It is most
effectual and is pleasant and safe to
take. For sale by all dealers.
