Coming to Loup City
World Famous Medical Special*
Ists to Visit Three Days
Here at the St.
Elmo Hotel.
WILL CURE THE SICK FREE.
Word has been received here that
F. Earl Gordon, one of the llot
Springs doctors who have their Ne
braska State Institute permanently
located at 14th and O streets. Lincoln,
has decided to pay a three days’ visit
to Loup City, and while here will
stop at the St. Elmo hotel, where he
will receive patients. I)r. Gordon will
give consultation and make all ex
aminations absolutely free of charge
and all curable cases will be treated
free of charge except for the bare cost
of tlie medicines used.
This Hot Springs system of home
treatment which I>r. Gordon is bring
ing to Loup City on April i>, 7 and K
has a national reputation as is attest
ed by tlie fact that the United States
owns Hot Springs, Ark., and lias es
tablished Army and Navy hospitals
there where soldiers and sailors are
sent after all other methods have
failed to cure. The United States
government highly endorses the Hot
Springs System of treatment and the
Hot Springs doctors hold a govern
ment license to treat chronic diseases
by the Hot Springs System of home
treatment. Tlie Hot Springs doctors
treat chronic diseases of the nerves,
skin, blood, heart, lungs, kidneys,
liver, bowels, including rheumatism, i
neuralgia, paralysis, piles, goitre, gall1
stones, eatarrah and diseases of
women and diseases of men. The i
Hot Springs system is all home treat
ment, so that frequent visits to tlie
office are not necessary and the treat
ment may'be used anywhere in any
home without inconvenience, annoy
ance or publicity and without detain
ing the patient from bis or her usual
occupation. The leading newspapers,
banks, business men and clergy en
dorse the Hot Springs -System of
home treatment.
l lie nauy papers tnrougnouL uie
country are continually publishing
lengthy reports of the. wonderful
cures that have been made by these
world famous doctors. The Nebraska
State Journal in a recent issue pul>
lished the following remarkable
article:
“Rufus E. Geiger of 210 South 10th
street, Lincoln, tells an interesting
story of how lie was cured of epileptic
tits by the Hot Springs Ikxrtors and
is now able to go back to work at his
trade as a machinist without fear of
falling among the heavy machinery
and being killed, while having a tit.
because he has no more tits.
Mr. Geiger also tells anothfer story
of how his letter which was published
in this paper telling of his cure has
brought him a host of visitors. In a
letter to the Hot Springs doctors he
says: “Gentlemen:—Since that letter
I wrote you ,tielling you how the Hot
Springs treatment cured me of epi
leptic fits, after I had been treated
and experimented on by fourteen
doctors for six years without receiving
any benefit whatever, since that letter
was published in the newspapers. I
have had hundreds of inquiries from
people who ^wanted to know whether
it was a fake advertising scheme.
Some evenings when I return home
from work I have five or six callers
to ask about my cure. It seems funny
that so many people would think the
letter a fake letter and come to ask
about it, but I guess it is because of
the experience they have had with
other doctors like I had with thpse
fourteen that treated me and took
my money, but done me no good. I
think some of the people are sent by
other doctors—the doctors who could
not cure me themselves, and it is
hard for them to believe that anyone
else could cure me. Hut here 1 am
sound and well, Hot Springs treat
ment cured me after fourteen doctors
failed. No more tits for me—let the
skeptics keep on coming. I am here as
a living testimonial and glad to help
any sick person to a cure by sending
them to you. K. E. Geiger.
“While calling at the omee oi tne
Hot Springs doctors at 14th and O
streets, the reporter asked Dr. Hen
W. Kinsey, who is chief of staff of the
Hot Springs doctors, if it was the
custom of the doctors to publish a
testimonial from each patient. “No,
indeed,” said Dr. Kinsey. “There
would not be enough room in your
paper to do that, so we .publish only
a few of the thousands that come to
us from patients who express a desire
or willingness to have them published
for the benefit of others.”
The waiting rooms of the Hot
Springs doctors are now tilled every
day with patients who have come
from all over the state and adjoining
states to consult with these noted
specialists and diagnosticians.
This wonderful Hot Springs System
of home treatment is what Dr.
Gordon is bringing to Loup City. He
will be here only three days and
while here he will receive patients at
the St. Elmo hotel.
Examination and consultation is
free and curable cases will be treated
free except for the bare cost of the
medicines used. If your case is found
to be incurable by the Hot Springs
System of home treatment you will
not be accepted for treatment at any
price or under any conditions, it be
ing the frank and invariable rule of
the Hot Springs doctors to accept no
incurable case for treatment.
Remember the date and place,
April 6, 1, and 8. at the St. Elmo
hotel, Loup City, Nebraska.

Marry Orchard, the wholesale mur
derer. who by his own confession lias
been the worst human beast of the
present century, has plead guilty to
ids enormous and almost unbelieva
ble record of blood and asks the death
sentence. His vivid or crazed imagi
nation leads him to believe bis death
will be bailed as evidence to the world
of the truth of his testimony in the
great labor trials at Boise. Idaho. It
were a pity to bang this human
jackal: this bloody beast of prey. No
adequate punishment could tie de
vised commensurate w ith the enormi
ty of Ills confessed crimes.
A lone robber, representing himself
to be a postal inspector, is reported to
have gained access to a mail car on the
Great Northern in Idaho, last Sunday
morning, did up a couple of mail
clerks, rifled a number of mail sacks
and escaped with the booty. The
story tpld by the clerks is that one of
them was asleep when he entered and
put the one awake into a ear closet,
and upon himself awakenihg was en
veloped in a mail sack and bound, af
ter which Mr. Robber leisurely helped
himself, kindly taking on and putting
off mall sacks at various stations en
route till lie left the car. Possible:
but Smells fishy, don't it? .
Tlie late republican state conven
tion is reported by our returned dele
gates to have been so smoothly oiled
and the machinery so perfectly ad
justed by the engineers in advance of
the date of its lidding that all they
had to do was to ratify or stand help
less to prevent its easy capture by
Victor, the son of his father, who
did things Brown winning with the
Field in hjs favor, it was a very well
played Shel (don game, llow do you
like such political manipulation, and
how much influence did the body of
the convention have in shaping the
results? Great is the grandstand
play of the "reformers” who are in
the political saddle of republicanism
in Nebraska today! Bah!
The writer is so constituted that lie
has little consideration or affection
for a certain element of pap-suckers,
hero-worshipers or camp-followers al
ways to be found in every party.
These fawning sycophants, especially
if they happen to burden the columns
of their own slush-buckets with their
paucity of ideas, will be found kiss
ing the hem of the garments of office
holders, and expanding upon the mer
its of this gubernatorial accident, or
that second rate congressman, or the
other one-horse politician who earns
an official or political preferment by
the action of his mouth, and with
loud acclaim trying to curry favor by
a sickening laudation of some partic
ular mark set up in the official or
political heavens. As one of the
common herd of country newspaper
men. with certain papersof the above
named breed coming to the exchange
table in the past, we have been nau
seated with the stuff and have taken
particular pleasure in eliminating
them from the list. Happily, they
are few in number, but such as do
exist are plague spots in the newspa
per world. What decent newspaper
could not name a few?
Last week the Northwestern called
public attention to the Loup City
high school building, regarding' its
condition in event of lire. We are
pleased to note at this time that a
very thorough examination of the
building by a committee composed of
County Clerk Hcushausen.il. li. Mus
ser arid A. L. Zimmerman, accom
panied by a representative of the
Northwestern, found said building to
be in splendid shape and almost im
possible of danger to life or limb in
case of a conflagration. Every door
leading from the various rooms swing
outward, with the one exception of a
small recitation room off the high
school department on the second
floor. All the windows open easily.
The hallways are quite large and the
stairways broad, easy of descent and
practically impossible of congestion
in event of panic. Two modes of
egress from the building—to the east
and to the west—are through great
folding doors swinging outward, most
easily pushed open from the inside,
even when locked. This knowledge
will certainly cause a feeling of relief
to the fathers and mothers of the vil
lage. The only suggestion to ire of
fered in compliance with all possible
human means of safety would be to
place tire escapes at convenient dis
tances from windows in each room
on the upper floor, to be used in case
egress by way of the hallways was
made impossible. This would perfect
all human efforts for the assured safe
ty of our boys and girls. Will our
honorable school board take imme
diate action. thereonV
By the State Journal we see that
calls have been received by Labor
Commissioner Ryder from Hastings,
St. Paul, Loup City and other towns
in the state to inspect the school
houses, opera houses and hotels of the
respective locations in compliance
with the law regarding safety from
such horrors as have recently’visited
Cleveland, Chicago and other cities.
It is very timely and imperative.
