Theory Of Disease,
AND ITS sIxrLE METHOD OF CURE.

AND ITS SIMPLE METHOD OF CURE.
1t is not our object, at this time, 10 go into
detailed explanation of Professor HolIoway's
theory of disease, but simply TO inform the
American people that one of the mos, remark
able men of this or any former age is among
them, and that his medicines have celebrlc-
ty unprecedented in the annals of the world.
There is no cbarlatanry in his pretensions.
Unless all the civilized world are deceived,
the Holloway's Pills and Ointment will drive
disease from the human system, under the
most unfavorable circumstances, and in all
climes. Other men have sprang into an ephe-
neral notoricty by advertising their remedies.
Like butterflies of the day they have buzzed
for while and then expired; both their
names and their medicines have sunk into an
obscuri,y from which they never emerged.
Others have met with limited success, per-
haps as much as they deserved. No man,
though he may have the wealth of Crpsus,
can long deceive an intelligent people with a
worthless remedy for disease. If health fol.
lows the administration of remedy for dt.
cease, almost without an exception, though il
is prescribed in million Of instances, and in
all forms Of disease, all the doctors on the
globe could not make the people believe tha,
i, was no, good remedy, or that the inventor
was not public benetactor, and no cmpric
or charlatan. Professor Holloway remedies
occupy this position before the citizens of the
world. The inventor is man Of enlarged
powers of mind, who has seen disease in all
its forms, an! in all climates Of the world.
His medical Office in London was daily
police force was necessary to be stationed
at his door. Blu, an office practice afforded
too narrow a field for the exercise CT his ex-
pansive intellect, and he determined TO be the
worlds physician. All countries have had
:heir celebrated physicians; England has had
an Abernethy, France Magendie, and Amer.
ica Rush; but these men's ambition only
extended to a practice confined TO a narrow
circle of friends and admirers, or the super.
in,endency of a medical hospital. Professor
Holloway has chosen the globe as a theatre
for his practice, and though now a resident of
Republican America, he is prescribing daily
for hundreds OF thousands on the four quarters
OF the globe, -r
HIS medicines are expressly designed to act
on the orgacs whose functions are so essen
tial TO health. They operate on the stomach,
liver, kidneys, lungs, and skin, restore their
deranged functions or uses. and thus purify
and clense the blooi. the very fountains of

Obituary..

Died at his home in Hamilton, MadisonCo
NY. Monday, 9Th inst, STEPHEN w. TAl,
LOR. LID, President of Madison University,
aged 65years. He had suffered for months from
hidden bu, excruciatng disease.
DR.. Taylor was native Of Otsego Co.,
NY. by borrowing the means, he ente-
rcd the Congregational institution at Gin
ton, NY, known as Hamilton College and
in 1917 graduated with the honors of his
class. Marrying soon after, he settled at
Lowville, where he reared up an Academy
of the first order. In 1885 he was called
to take charge of the Preparatory Depart
ment of the Baptist Literary Il TheOlogi-
cal Institution, at Hamilton, now Madison
University. In 1916, he entered upon
the work of establishing the University at
Lewisburg, Pa, and contributed an impor-
tant part in laying broad and deep its
foundations. After graduating its first
class of pupils, he returned to enter upon
the Presidency Of Madison University, in
the faithful performance Of the duties Of
which he breathed his last.
Retiring in his character, Dr. T, was
known truly only TO those associated with
him by family or educational contact, and
by those he was esteemed second to none.
We believe his father, as well as his wild
ow and three children, still live to realize
q loss which will be mourned by thousands
to whom he has been bcnefactor as an cd
ucator, as a rare example Of manly and
Christian virtues, and as a true and con-
eiderate friend.

HoRRID AFFAIR.-At Maysville, Ky,
on Thanksgiving day a couple of young
men whose family connections are of the
"highcst resectability," while on drunk
en- frolic at the Parke House, set jire to a
eolored waiter whom they found asleep in
order to awaken him. They first poured
camphene upon his whiskers, and then ap-
Piled fire to them. The poor fellow was
terribly burned, and lived two weeks in
the most excrutiating agony. The young
men being rich, have settled the affair
with the owners of the boy by paying him
$1,000, their "hish position" sheltering
them from any movement for legal inves-
tigation.
