Tbe Chief of Scoff of the Hot Springs
Doctors is mnking bis animal tour of
tbe Btutu visiting the towns and cities
calling on their patients in each com
munity and consulting with new pa
tients who are desirous tbe great treat
ment that cures all chronic and nervous
diseases of men and women The phe
nominal success of the Hot Springs
treatment is due to tbe fact that it re
moves from the patients system tbe
cause of disease usually doctors treat
tbe symptoms of the case instead of
making a complete diagnosis and then
removing the cause as do these special
ists
The human body has beon the life
study of these noted specialists their
skill in tbe matter of medical diagnosis
puts them in the front ranks of Ameri
can Specialists After they make a
painstaking examination thoy are in a
position to state positively whether or
not a cure is possible if not tbey tell
tbe patient so and refuse to undertake
a cure If tbey do undertake a cure
the patient is cured Tbey do this at
extremely reasonable cost they ask no
fee at all until the patient is completely
cured
The highest standard of quality is the
only standard in the medicineB used by
tbe Hot Springs Doctors These ex
pensive mediciues are especially pre
pared for each case tbey aro from tbe
worldd best laboratory guaranteed by
the pure food laws eliminating all
possibility of anyone taking into their
system any poisonous drugs A cure is
sure and permanent as a result of taking
the world famous Hot Springs home
treatment
Chronic and nervous diseases like
rheumatism asthma bronchitis goiter
diseases of tbe heart blood and lung
diseases catarrh gallstones epilepsy
kidney stomach and bladder troubles
and female diseases must yield to tbe
treatment as given by these noted
Specialists In their Lincoln offices
are thousands of letters from people
who have bpen restored to health in
many instances thesB people could not
have been cured wore it not for the Hot
Springs treatment For example take
the case of Mrs White who lives at
University Place Nebraska These
Specialists made a careful examination
of her case and found that she was
suffering from rheumatism kidney and
stomach trouble After taking treat
ment here is what she says in her own
words
University Place Nebraska
April 18 1909
Words almost fail me to tell how
thankful I am for renewed health
and strength after suffering with
stomach trouble which eventually
reached a stage where I could
scarcely retain food and suffered
great pain To add to my trouble
I was also afflicted with rheumatism
which swelled my feet and hands
so that I was helpless 1 tried
several local doctors but their treat
ment failed to give me any relief
I began to take the Hot Springs
Doctors treatment and commenced
to improve at once and now at the
end of twelve months I am entirely
recovered and feel as well as at any
time of my life I am glad to rec
ommend the Hot Springs treatment
for what it has done for me to any
who may be afflicted in the way I
have been
Mrs H E White
Here is a testimonial letter from Smith
Center Kansas that is interesting
Smith Center Kansas
April 14 1909
Mrs Amis is getting along just
fine has not had any of her old
dropsical trouble at all this year
It has been just about one year
since Kind Providence sent you to
Smith Center and we are certainly
thankful for the help you have
rendered us Wishing you un
bounded success we are as ever
Mr and Mrs S L Amis
The treatment that has cured these
people and restored thousands of others
to health is available to the people in
this section for it is this wonderful sys
tem of treatment that the Chief of Staff
of the Hot Springs Doctors brings to us
on May 5th at Commercial Hotel
As the Specialist will be here onlj
one day it is respectfully requested
that people do not call out of idle curi
osity He will be busy with patients
who really need his services and it would
be an imposition to take up his time
idly It is also important to announce
that married women who wish to con
suit tbe Chief of Staff must be accom
panied by their husbands and all
minors by their parents If you are
suffering with any chronic or nervous
disease and desire to be restored to
health vigor and happiness dont fail
to call MAY 5th 1909
The permanent offices of the Hoi
Springs Doctors are located at 14th and

Just as interesting is the prognosti
cation of M Camille Flammarion one
of the greatest living scientists After
many years of study he has arrived at
theconclusion that the world will in
the twenty fifth century come across
the path of the comet Beila which
crossed our line a few years ago On
this occasion however a collision will
take place and Beila being infinitely
greater than the earth a shock may
be expected which he calculates wjjl
be SG3 times greater than the shock
caused by the collision between two

No White Rhinoceros
- Speaking of carnivora and the other
fauna of Africa let me say for the
benefit of the American writers lec
turers and artists who wish to pretend
to a knowledge of African animal life
that there are no yaks alligators kan
garoos turkeys bears or tigers in Af
rica outside of a circus or a zoological
garden There are two species of rhi
noceros the bicornis or prehensile lip
ped and the simus or square mouthed
rhino The latter although almost as
black as its relative is called the white
rhinoceros on account of a blue slaty
tinge in its sin To be exact there is
no such thing as a white rhinoceros

END OF THE WORLD
Speculations of Scientists as to How
It Will Come About
The terrible catastrophe lu Italy
which caused the Inhabitants of the
111 fated city of Messina to believe
that the end of the world hud come is
only a foretaste on a small scale of
what many eminent scientists believe
will be the end of the world That
eternal problem of how the world will
end Is In the pplnlon of many a mat
ter of scientific Investigation and It is
curious that the majority believe that
the earth will open up and fly to
pieces in the most gigantic earthquake
ever known an earthquake that will
wipe all life from the globe before the
actual destructiou of the earth is com
plete
The late Grant Allen firmly believed
that the world would end by the crust
of the earth eventually giving way
beneath the colossal weight above It
And Abbe Dupln one of the greatest
scientists of France believes that
doomsday will begin with a Avar that
will envelop the greatest nations in
Europe this being followed by a
plague the like of which has never
been known culminating with an
earthquake that will practically shake
the world to pieces
Mr II G AVells whose scientific
prophecies are well known is how
ever of a different opinion The world
will end he declares by its becoming
entirely frozen over It is a well
known fact that every year more ire
accumulates around the poles In
short many millions of tons of Ice in
excess of that of the year previous
settle about the earths extremities
each year and In Mr Wells opinion
this will gradually extend until the
whole world is frozen over and every
living thing is thus destroyed
Several scientists are of opinion that
we shall perish by fire and this old
world of ours with lis Nikola Tesla
the great American is convinced that
the atmosphere of the world being so
fully charged with electricity the re
sult will be a gigantic explosion by
spontaneous combustion when the
world will be entirely encircled with
flame which in the space of a few
seconds will destroy all life
Two of the worlds greatest scien
tists firmly aver that the end of the
world will be brought about by astro
nomical conditions Take Professor
Marienberg the noted Austrian stu
dent In his opinion the earth will fly
from its orbit and come in contact
with one of the other planets that may
chance to be in a direct line The
earth being comparatively small will
of course get the worst of it and split
into fragments at the collision But of
course directly the world swerved

A FOOLISH OBJECTION
Mrs Sniggleigh Calls the Turn on Her
Better Half
My dear said Mr Sniggleigh who
was feeling a little peevish 1 cant
understand why you have to spend so
much money for clothes Here we
are strangers In a strange city We
never are invited out anywhere We
go to no balls no receptions 116 musi
cales or anything of that kind Yet
you appear to think it necessary to
have a new gown made every week
or two and your bills for hats are
simply enormous It seems to me you
might well economize a little I hoped
when I accepted my position in thU
town to be able to save about two
thirds of my salary so that it would
be possible In a few years to retire
after which we could travel and live
in some more congenial climate The
way things are going I shall never be
able to get ahead at all Ill simply
have to stay here and work away to
the end of my days I dont spend
any more money for clothes than is
absolutely necessary Why should IV
Who notices me outside of my office
Nobody It is the same in your case
What do the people who pass youIn
the street care Avhother your gowns
are made In the latest style or not
The ones who eat at the restaurants
to which we sometimes go dont care
a sou about your hats or coats or furs
And what if they did They are all
strangers to you You ought to have
some sense about these things I
hope you dont think it makes a par
ticle of difference to the people you
see in the cars when you go into town
whether you are dressed as the wife
of a millionaire might dress or not
To speak plainly Jessica Im getting
rather weary of your extravagance
I wouldnt kick if a lack of fine
clothes were going to deprive you of
social pleasures But your costly hats
and elegant gowns dont seem to have
helped you on at all Nobody calls on
you and you are never invited to any
thing worth while
Why Jonathan Mrs Sniggleigh
replied perhaps a little more in anger
than in sorrow You talk like a
crazy man You cant understand
these things What kind of attention
do you suppose Id get from the clerks
in the stores if I didnt dress well

A POISON EPISODE
When a Famous Chemist Was Silenced
In Court by a Judge
There was a famous poisoning case
In England many years ago lu which
tie strong point of the defense was to
show that the accused who was an
expert chemist would not have used a
poison which could be so easily found
after It had been taken Into the hu
man system Sir Robert Christcson
professor in Edinburgh university a
famous expert on toxicology whose
works are still standard on that sub
ject was put on the stand to prove
this point When he declared that a
chemist would certainly use some poi
son which would leave 110 trace the
prosecuting attorney asked him if he
meant to say that there were such
polsous
Sir Robert replied In the affirmative
The prosecutor asked Name them
No shouted the judge I forbid
you to answer that question
In spite of the protests of the prose
cutor the judge would not allow the
expert publicly to give the name of a
poison which would leave no trace
and the question remained unan
swered
Now comes the curious part of the
story During the next two years Sir
Robert received more than 4000 let
ters from all parts of the world ask
ing begging offering to buy the name
of the untraceable poison alluded to in
his testimony Many of these he kept
as curiosities showing them to his
friends as evidence of the depravity of
human nature Some of the excuses
for wanting the name of the poison
were very ingenious One man was
writing a novel based on a poison plot
and wanted to make use of the un
traceable poison idea He did not
want to give the name of the poison in
his book but just wanted to have it
by him in case any scientific critic
should deny the possibility of such poi
sons when he could send him the
name in a private letter and quote the
distinguished authority from whom
it came etc Several persons profess
ed to be studying chemistry and asked
for the information on the ground of
professional courtesy To all such Sir
Robert would send the advice to pur
sue their studies and they would soon
know as much about it as he did
Many offered large sums of money for
the secret usually pretending they
had bet still larger amounts that they
could find it out iu a given time and
were willing to share their profits lib
erally with Sir Robert
The thing which most impressed Sir
Robert was the uumber of persons all
over the world who seemed desirous
of possessing the secret of an agent
that would kill but leave no trace and
the amazing falsehoods to which they
would subscribe their names in order
to obtain the information It is said
that whatever poison Sir Robert had
in mind at the trial he never mention
ed it not even to ins classes so strong
ly was he impressed with the danger
of letting such a thing become matter
of public knowledge
