The Most Necessary Thing TO a Cure--How
DIR. Albert Inspires It.
1t is probably impossible for any ply
sIcIan, no matter how learned or how
skilIfnl, to cure the ills Of one who has
no faith. If the petiant cannot be in
dnced TO balieys that he will recover, he
,nTobably will not. 1t comes to this,
therefofe, that the very first requisite ia
a physician is the power to inspire con-
fidence.
Right here, we think, is the great
eecret Of DR.. Albert's phenomenal sue
cess. He mas magic whisper of hope
which arouses the sufferer from despair
and puts him in the best possible posi-
tion TO profit by the treatment which Dr.
Aibgrt's great power Of intuition, hard
study. and wonderfully wide experience
have taught him to apply:

Suddenly his pipe dropped from his

he dropped into his sons arms. The

THE late Judge Israel Spencer, of syrs-
cuse. N. Y, invented few novelties in
defalcstiOn Instead of dabbling in
yachts and fast nags, like Gray, of BOs-
ton, and then blowing out his brains on
discovery; or instead Of placing himself
at the mercy Of any inquisitive cashier,
like Bartholomew. he Just lived quietly,
Iookei solemn all the time, kept his
own books and died in the Cdor Of sane
tity. 1t took year and half to fnf
out that he had taken slice of 800. COO
out Of some trust funds.

chase includes fifteen miles of
graded roadbed and about
two miles of completed track. Council

title the company to receive valuable

TOM RYAN.

Thos. Ryan carried Shawnee county
including Topeka, solidly. There has
been considerable talk, very foolish
talk, about &C tting out some one with
which to beat the best known and
most influential congressman in the
west. 1t would be more wise for that
district to pension Jetmore, ct al, if
they must be taken care of, than to
permit Ryan's defeat. We don't know
how the average politician of that dis
trict feels, nor do we care, but The fact
is the state as state could i'll afford
village rooster for a man of Ryan's
calibre and experience.
