UNITED DOCTORS
MAKE FREE OFFER
Will Cure Fw ratltnts fim
T SUtw Winders of tho
New Siftttm.
Free examination, free consultation
and free treatment until you are entirely
well. Sncb is the generous offer made
by the United Doctors to all patients
accepted for treatment during their vis
it to Columbus at the Thurston Hotel
on Wednesday March 16th and Thursday
March 17th.
The only charge that will be made is
for the medicine used, which mast be
paid cash. To very poor patients the
medicine will be furnished free also.
The object of the United Doctors in
makinglhis grand free offer is to secure
a few supposedly incurable cases quick
ly to demonstrate the tremendous cura
tive powers of this wonderfnl new sys
tem of medicine ss used by the United
Doctors. These specialists solict one or
two of the most difficult cases from each
locality in order to show what can be
done by scientific treatment, even in the
worst forms of diseases.
The treatment used by the United
Doctors is non surgical. They never
use the knife, never mutilate the body
which God has made in his image. On
ly the best and porest of chemicals are
used by thee specialists, their motto
being that every sick person is entitled
to the beat medicines that are to be fonnd
in nature. To obtain pure drugs they
prepare all of the medicines in their own
lalioratory and thus every patient is as
sured of pure medicines, the bent obtain
able, regardless of coat.
The expensive and elaborate instru
ments nsed in disgonosis and the ex
treme care used in securing pure drugs
and preparing them especially for each
case, makes the treatment used by the
United Doctors more expensive than
ordinary treatment, yet the larger num
ber of patients treated makes it possible
to place the price of treatment within
the reach of all.
This is really a vary remarakable and
generous offer by these great specialists.
It is an offer of free treatment until well
regardless of the length of time required
to complete the cure This offer is
good only in cases accented for treat
ment during their visit to Columbus on
Wednesday. March HUh and Thursday,
March 17th.

to all, but only curable cases will be ac
cepted for treatment. If your case is in
curable you will lie told so and not one
penny of your money accepted. How
ever, many cases that are incurable by
the old methods can he quickly cured by
this wonderful new met hod of the United
Doctors.

Settling a Matrimenial Dispute.
Mme. Sada Yaeco, the famous Japa

the ussassiuated Prince Ito from her
childhood, told the following amustag
anecdote:
"Iu my frequent quarrels with say
husband we sometimes asked Prince
Ito to judge between us. One day
when we had had a more than esasJly
violent dispute at CblgasakI the prince
came in unexpectedly, and 1 asked
him to decide the question. Bat he
declined, while proposing the follow
ing solution:
" 'Go down into the garden, both of
you. and tight it out like sumo tori
(wrestlers). The one that wins will
naturally be the one who Is la the
right.'
"No sooner said than done! In a
trice Knwakami and I were ft wrcs
tling trim. By good luck my hashaad
was just recovering from a serkms Ill
ness, and as be was very weak I aoon
threw him to the ground. This.

Cemeteries Where Women Oessiaw
Friday, the Sabbath of the Moateaw.
when all true believers of the awsca
line gender makea point of going to
church, their wivesV sisters and daugh
ters resort to the cemeteries and wall
for the dead. But all their time la slot
spent in weeping, and sorrow is not
the only emotion they display, on these
occasions. They take with tnera
bunches and garlands of flowers and
decorate the graves of their relatives
and pray and weep over the dead for
a time. Then wheu this pious duty 9
performed they gather In little groups
and have a good time gossiping about
the living. Thus the day of mourning
is very popular among the Moslem wo
men. It gives them almost the only
opportunity they have of cultivating
the acquaintance of their neighbors.
The Lion and the Unicorn.
The unicorn came Into the royal
arms with James I. it belongs to the
royal arms of Scotland. The signet
riug of Mary, mother of James, is In
existence, having a unicorn on It. In
the royal arms, therefore, one support
er represents England, the other Scot
land. The lion and the unicorn occur also
in ancient Buddhist scriptures, placed
together as supporters. Both of these
animals also are seen playing draughts
together in the well known Egyptian
painting. Rut the oldest connection
of the two is in the blessing of Jacob
and of Moses. London Xotes anC
