Attorneys Disagree on ' Amount of Fees Due Them Charles Blakiley filed an answer yesterday m district court to a peti tion of Lambert, Shotwell and Shot well, who claim a balance of at torneys' fees. Blakelev alleys that $6,300 claimed is excessive; that he has paid $2,108 and is willing to pay .'the difference between that amount fand $3,500, which he considers rea- i n i i j i I uest dioou m&Ker ana nerve tome known to-day. This they called " Irontic" It s an iron tome that puts new energy, life, stamina into the blood. " Irontic " is to be pro cured of almost all druggists, in 60-cent vials. If you want to try it, send 10 cents to Dr. Pierce's Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Yn for a trial package. You wul find "Irontic" tablets equally as good and effective as Doctor Pierce's Pleasant Pellets, which have been known for the past fifty years as a gentle herbal laxative. Folks at home have acquired the healthiest of habits. They become "regular as clock-work," after taking these "Pleasant Pellets." Being' com posed of May-apple, aloes, jalap, they are perfectly harmless to any system. They are tiny sugar coated pellets that cure biliousness. HAS DEADLY INFLDENZA GERM BEEN CONQUERED Scientific Investigation Proves Beyond Ques tion That Disease Germs Can Be Destroyed by Over-Oxidization As Well As By Direct Poison New Discovery Creates Wide Spread Interest. T O DISCOVERY in the field of medicine within the past year, perhaps, has created such widespread interest and discussion as the announcement that a new preventive treat ment for Spanish Influenza had been found. The new treat ment is called Wilson's Solution or Anti-Flu, and is the discovery of Prof. Robert C. Wilson, head of the Department of Pharmacy of one of the largest universities in the country- Leading physicians, specialists and bacteriologists give the prep aration unqualified endorsement after submitting it to the most exhaustive tests. The solution is composed of some of the most pow erful antiseptics and germicides known to science and experimental tests show that one of the ingredi ents is ten times as powerful as car bolic acid, although the preparation is harmless when used according to direcNons. To many this would ap pear impossible, but it is a well known fact that Dakin's Solution, which has been used so extensively in the war hospitals, is fifty times as powerful as mercury. The above statement, therefore, seems mild by comparison. It is Prof. Wilson's theory that the germs in the nose and throat and bronchial tubes can be de stroyed by the powerful vapors from his solution by merely inhal ing the fumes from a few drops on the handkerchief. The fact that tens of thousands have apparently received immunity from the disease after using Wilson's Solution seems to support this theory. Scientific investigation has shown beyond peradventure of a 1 doubt that germs and bacteria can be de stroyed by over-oxidization as well as by direct poison. It is indicated that Wilson's Solution 'does both; and' it is Prof. Wilson's theory that the, germs are killed by over-oxidisation when the fumes are inhaled sufficiently from the handkerchief - M il.i S a fig&siefc ib4 thai it dMtronlitio the germs by direct poison when used as a spraying solution. When used as a spraying solution it covers the mucous membrane lin ing of the nose and throat with an oily coating saturated with this powerful antiseptic and it is indi cated that when the germs are in haled they come in contact with the solution and are thus destroyed. It is believed that spraying the nose and throat night and morning, in addition to inhaling the fumes of the solution at frequent intervals during the day, will give complete immunity. It is also indicated that bad colds, tonsilitis, sore throat and the ordinary forms of grippe and other diseases contracted by way of the nose and throat, can be prevented by using Wilson's Solution in the above manner. On account of its powerful anti septic and disinfecting properties it can be used for practically all pur poses where antiseptics are re quired, and is a most valuable household remedy. Although it was placed on the market bnly a few weeks ago, the success the preparation has achieved is truly phenomenal. It is now being manufactured at the rate of forty- three thousand bottles daily, but even this amount has not been suf ficient so far to supply the rapidly increasing demand. Wilson's Solution is also known as Anti-Flu, and is sold by all drug gists. A thirty-five-cent bottle is sufficient for a week's treatment Caution: Read directions on the la be carefully, as the Solution is highly concentrated and must be properly diluted Richardson Drug uo., wnoiesaie aistriDutors Jor this s-wash m Vfie Ciristmas Siorefor&veryBodif Friday, November 22, 1918. -STORE NEWS FOR SATURDAY Phone Douglas 2100 Your New Suit and Overcoat Question Can be Best Answered Here in This Big Clothing Stock at Burgess-Nash i MANY a man of brains and money wears clothes that don't do him justice maybe he can afford to, but he isn t doing justice to his friends and his family by being so careless.
