Dear Doctor cannot express to you in
words the gratitude ! feel towards you for
the great service you have rendered me
and my family. When ! first called on
you TO consult you my vile had suffered
for some time severely from catarrh and .
complication of other diseases. which
made her life miserable. My daughter
also was in delicate health. was at
trac;ed during my first visit by the care
and attention you gave to the whole case;
and, although l must confess that in the
beginning went to you merely rs an ex-
pertinent to see whether could find relief
for my wife and daughter. was SO fayora-
bly, impressed with the manner in which
you commenced your treatment that /
was inspired with confidence in your His
t0genetic system. That confidence was
not misplaced, because today, although
you have been treating my family for only
few eeks. my wife and daughter are
now enjoying comparatively good health,
with every indication of their being in .
short time completely cured OF the
complaints from which they suf-
'fered. The result has been TO make our
nome happier IN every way, and am now
so firmly convinced of the efficacy OF your
treatment that 1 will in future have no
other SO far Is myself and family are con-
cerned. write you this letter voluntarily
and without any solicitation on your part.
In fact, Iconsider it my duty To thus pub
licly show my appreciation of what you
have done for me and mine. and that 9TH
ers may know where they can be benefited
as have been. and therefore you are at
liberty to make any use you like Of this

HENRY KIERsKI DISAPPEARS.
Hc Left Home without Warning Last
Monday.

Henry kicrski, young man well known
about town. has disappeared, and his
parents and friends are unable either TO
tell his present whereabouts or TO account
for his sudden disappearance.
He was last seen at noon Monday. On
the Saturday previous he had been collect
ing for the Jewish Congregation Ohaveth
Sholum, in which capacity he had been
employed by MIR. Sol Blum, secretary. but
had, on Saturday night. turned in all of
the money which he had collected. Mr..
Blum says he is sure kierski could not
have made away with any of the congre-
cations funds, SO that the rumor that
Kierski had made an appropriation from
that source and decamred is without foua-
dation. some OF bis friends think he has
started in search of work TO some other
Sound town. Two weeks ago he was consid-
ering proposition 10 take the management
of theater in Texas, but it was thought
he had given that up. Lately he has been
devoting large part of his time TO low
theaters, and the most plausible theory for
his disappearance Is that he has run away
with an abandoned woman, with whom he
hss associated for several weeks.
Elvs Marsten, recently an inmate of Lou
Graham's house of i'll fame. has left tha
city, and it is reported that she
and kierski are together. Elva Mars
ten is the girl who. several months ago,
figured as the cause of the suicide of young
Anderson, of Victoria. in the Auzera lodg-
inghouse. After that affair she dis
appeared for a short time with
brother OF Anderson. but returned later to
Lou Graham's- Kierski lately tried to i'm
duce her to 60 to another disreputable
house, but she declined 10 change. 1t is
known that kierski had q companion in
his fight. and there are strong reasons for
the belief that Elva Marsten is that CON-
panion. and is probably the cause of his
going away so suddenly.
Henry kierski is "A years of age and is
son of Mr.. w. kierski, with NJ. Seller a.
Co. His parents are well known and
highly respected people. and the young
mans disappearance has caused no little
comment among the Hebrews of the city.

upon DIR. Jordan with what the doctors
said was inaammstory rheumatism. My
right hand was the size OF four and had
not been able to sleep for several nights.
DR.. Jordan prescribed for me and told me
to obtain some small bottles in which to
put the medicine. thercupon went into
q Seattle drug store and asked for some
bottles, remarking that | wanted them TO
put DR.. Jordan's medicines into. A lady
who WAS present gratuitously remarked
that DR.. Jordan was quack. paid no
attention 70 this, rs had previous expe-
rience with the doctor, who relieved me of
a misery in which other eminent physi-
clans failed. In just two weeks | could
write with my hand and it has been well

row.er Go. tn. Best Of II.

A fine Irish setter dog. with a long chain
attached To his neck, was trotting leisurely
along the Madison street cable road track
yesterday afternoon, when his chain fell
into the slot where the cable runs, and
became entangled with the cable As a
consequence the dog was obliged 10 travel
along with the cable 81 q speed of eight
miles an hour. The dog stood it for about
a block, when he stopped and tried to sit
down. bat the cable dragged him along and
be got up and ran with the cable again for
another block Then he tried 10 sit down
again but he was suddenly dragged about
twenty feet along the road, whereepon he
decided 10 run again and kept il up until
be had almost reached Fourth street
where the depression pulIeys are, and his
death seemed imminent. when the chain
became disentanried and the dog with a
joyful bark sprang away from the track
and tro,ted down side street with all the
speed his remaining strength allowed.

Need of Pure Air.

In public halls and vehicles the oppres-
sion of foul air is insupportable and
amounts to direct poisoning of the en-
feebled organ. A heart seriously weak
ened, if kept in pure, warm air, fed with
delicate, nourishing food and kept from
fatigue and mental strain, will regain
strength as naturally as we get rest from
sleep. 1t has great recuperative powers.
But half hour in the mephitic air of a
travelling car or public hall does more
to make recovery impossible than almost
any other cause 1nentionab1e. This is a
matter which more than ever deserves,
to be pressed upon the attention of rail-
way companies. to whom the mass of our
people must trust their lives and health
for share of their days quite long enough
to injure both.
The risk of accident by train is not half
so great as the certainty of imbibing
virulent poison from one to two hours
daily in unventilated cars. A sanitary
commission is needed to set the strict, un-
biased facts of the matter before railway
anagers.-Shirley Dare in New York

naScerAND,s GRAVES.

Apeacefui city lies over there;
Never hea-tache never care;
No more longings for brighter days.
Nor frIIitiess strivings for higher ways
Reace with the world, at rest in God;
Homeonce moro to the kindly sod,
Whereroses bloom and thefresh grass waves .
A gfadsome vigil DER Grace,and's graves.
Some summer morning when skies are bright,
Some night in winter when SHOWS are white;
II matters little the time or when
We shall have done with the cares Of men:
Gone e'theway where our fathers led,
Into the mystery of the dead;
Seeking. the peace the spirit Graves,
Choosing a home midst Graceland's graves.
None can know the burdens borne,
Nor the cruelweight of yokes we've worn;
The broken idols were all our own.
The lips would smile when the heart would moan;
Bravely acting each one his part,
Hiding the dead hopes in the heart;
We come to thetiIling of the waves,
And sunset leaves us at Graceiand's graves.
And when we're gone from the haunts Of men,
VIII the world have less of sunshine then?
VIM mother, sister, sweetheart, wife
Love more Of eternity. less Of lifes
Are we building monument high and grand
Or a dingy hovel upon the sand?
So we ask our hearts as the mind o'erstrays
To the peaceful city OF iGraceland's graves.

Training the Eye.

Another exercise consists in moving
about in curves goblet filed to within
an eighth of an inch of the top with wa
ter. Grasp the goblet by the stem and
describe figures with the hand and arm
very slowly. The eye becomes fixed
upon the goblet, and the mind is inter
ested and concentrated. Where there is
lack of mental and nerve poise there is a
corresponding absence of poise in the
eye, and any practice, no matter how
simple it may seem, which fixes the at
tention of the eye has an effect upon
the mind and nerves.-Mabel Jenness in

He Changed His Diet.

A vegetarian of this city has become a
Hesh eater since he discovered scientific
law that he had not previously been
aware of. He changed his mind upon
the diet question, and got convinced that
meats were among the proper edibles for
mankind after he had been assured by a
professor of chemistry that beef, mutton
and pork were merely TRANSFORMED
grass, vegetables and grain" After pom
dering upon this interesting law of chemi-
cal Transformation he came to the con-
clusion that vegetarianism is doctrine
OF narrow scope, and he adopted new
dietetic policy, under which he now en-
joys tenderloin steaks, lamb chops and
tried bacon, not to speak Of stewed kid
ney, pigs feet and tete de veau.-New

How to Kin Enrlisb Raars-s-

Practically, it is said, the only way to
kill the English badgers is to stop their
"earths" in the covers along the hillside
while they are out on their midnight
foraging expeditions, and then hunt them
away with the hounds; for the badger is
one OF the craftiest of animals. and often
outwits the dogs. He will not touch a
poisoned bait, and an old badger, it is
sand, Will ''throw" hundred traps with
lmpunity. To dislodge the animals from
their retreats, if they once gain the earth,
is next to an impossibility. They are
most expert and rapid burrowers.-

A Cute Little Jan,

saw on the street little Jap toddling
along by the side Of stout old Jap,
whom took to be his father. The
youngster wore a tunic, or whatever it
should be called, of brilliant blue and
knickerbockers green as grass. But this
gayety did not extend beyond his clothes.
The weight of ages seemed to rest upon
his infantile brow-he could not have
been more than years old-and it is
certain that his infantile legs had bent
beneath the burden. He was an object
OF conscious pride ON the part of his
father, of lively curiosity on the part of
people in the street, and was much more
foreign in appearance than any other
human creature that have ever SEEM
