DIR. Orrn Fitzgerald of the Medical
home, Allston, Mass. will by special re-
quest, visit Skowhegan March %
and examine all who may call on him.
free of charge, at Heselton House. If
you are suffering from any disease thai
has bafiled your physician, call on DIR.
Fitzgerald, who will locate your disease
instantly. His diagnosis of the human
system is simply marvellous. lie makes
organic disease speciality, and will not
say he will cure unless he can warrant it,
DR.. Fitzgerald has no equal.
To Mr.. Vim. Radam, scientific florist
and hotanist of Anstin, Texas, is due the
credit of having discovered the greatest
of all remedies, namely; remedy that
will kill the microbes of disease germs in
our system, something never before &C
complished by any medicinal preparation
The Microbe Killer is composed of pure
water charged with powerful germ
destroying gases. Thousands OF persons
have taken it, yet we defy any one to
produce man, woman or child who has
been injured by its use. That almost
every disease known to medical science
has been cured by this remedy can be
proven by our published testimonials, and
letters from others who do not wish them
published. These are all genuine. Should
you doubt it, and upon investigation find
we have deceived you, then upon you
furnishing proof we will give you s 900
for each and every one you prove not
genuine. Pamphlets and circulars sent
free. Address j. n. Smith, Skowhegan,

Bro TIMER, Dec. Ito the Editor of
The INDEPENDENT: 70 preserve the eupho-
ny of q tale and to farther harrow up the
feelings Of the reader. you, in your issue of
Nov. 18th, allude to the town as "small
and lonely station on the Northern Pa
cific. 10 neither of which counts do We
plead guilty. There are $50 people living
here. There are three buildings in town
which would not disgrace your own Main
street, narrow as it is. There are three
general merchandise establishments which
sell goods annually to the amount of $175,-
COO; there is a metropolitan drug store and
two of the most complete stocks of hard
ware to be found in any town, even the hub,
of Montana. There are as many INDIE
pENDENTs taken here as in any town east of
Helena, barring Livingston ard Billings.
There is six year-old Chautauqua circle.
We have all the attributes of greatness and
will, in the course of year, have greatness
thrust upon us, whether or no. A man who
comes here to escape the maddening
throng" or to seek sweet solitude will get
left. A. G. II.

Methods to do It,

Views OF Correspondent ON the Best
Methods to do II.
To The lNDEpENDENr: The effort now be.
ing made by number of the citizens of
Helena to bring our city and state into
prominence by advertisements inserted in
eastern papers setting forth the advantages
Of this section for residential, investment
ana other purposes, can be greatly aided il
those OF our people who have acquaintance
with outside publications will write them
articles with the same end in view. There
are very few who cannot obtain insertion
OF such matter in some paper, and while
they are interesting to the eastern readers
the favored journals are glad to obtain or
iginal reading for their columns.
This species of advertising has been
much used by Colorado people and de-
scnptions of mountain scenery in that
state, coupled with the most tiattering ac-
counts pf the climate and health Of the
country furnish staple reading, while not a
word is ever seen from Montana
Our state is almost q terra incognita
to eastern people. The regular paid adver-
tlsement to be effective must be followed
up. They in q measure break the ice, leav-
ing the real work to be done afterwards.
The COMMITTEES urges systematic effort
in the direction suggested. Ministers can
write to their UNCONVENTIONAL organs.
Physicians to the numerous medical and
health publications. Teachers to educa-
tional journals. Sportsmen, stock raisers
and farmers can all lend hand each,
touching on topics which will interest
different class. Keep up steady stream of
communications and it will not be long be-
fore the dense population of the States
will find out that there is such place as
Montana. and that instead of being the
friRid, blizzard-swept country Of their
a imagination, the combination Of magnih
valleys yearninR for the pillow. and noun
tains splitting open with their wealth of
gold, silver and copper, makes it the most
desirable country for all classes now open
to population in the world.
