z CRAW FORD,

Here is what one patient says:
Abscess and curvature of the spine.
About three years ago our daughter Nina
Downs began to be affected with II terrible
pain in her side and back. During all thai
time she was great sufferer, and at times
sutferings were very intense. She also had
with this the development of Il curvature OF
the spine. Her case seemed to battle the
skill of our very best physicians and often n
thorough examination OF her case she was
pronounced incrable, that her abscess had
so far matured that it was liable to break in
wardly at any time, in which there
would be no hope. That it the abScess was
cured there then would be no help for the
spinal curvature. About three weeks after
this we took her to Doctor Crawford Of
once gave us assurances that the case was
not hopeless. He gave her the first treatmen
July /, 1889. The dreadful pain she had sui
fered was at once relieved, and in very
short time entirely disappeared At the
tenth treatment the abScess opened on the
outside and began to discharge freely and i
now nearly healed. The curvature of the
spine has entirely disappeared and is now
well as ever. All this was accomplished
inside of three months after We had given up
hope of her ever being made well. Oui
knowledge of this and many other cases
cured by the Doctors skill gives us confidence
in thus commencing him to the sick and snf

lispensable The eye must be well

The Democrats of Nevada, says the
Butte, Montana, Mining Journal,
have done wise thing in selecting
Hon. George w. Cassidy as their can
didate for Representative in Con-
gress, and the people of that State,
without regard to politics, should see
to it that he is elected. Mr.. Cassidy
Ia q gentleman of splendid ability,
answering courage, fine presence
and knows how to talk when he has
anything to say. Here 1t may be
mentioned that no matter what SUBJ
ject comes before the public he has
pronounced opinions upon them and
does not hesitate to express them, no
matter where he may be, whether on
the floor Of Congress, on the stump
or in his sanctum. The workingmen
of Nevada should bear in mind that
In the seventies, when the attempt
was made to break down the miners
unions in that State, especially in
Eureka, for the purpose of reducing
wages, the ablest champion that the
laborer had was George w. Cassidy.
With his pen and voice he attacked
the scheme and did more than any
other one man to prevent its con-
summation. He is a sound silver
man and while no one cares to de-
tract from the merits of Senator Stew
art, it may be said that many of the
arguments advanced by Mr.. Stewart
upon the subject Of coinage are
builded upon ideas advanced 10y
Cassidy years ago. The candidate is
also sound upon the Democratic prin-
ciple of tariff reform, and II elected
will not play second fiddle to the
Speaker or any one else. For these
reasons we know that Mr.. Cassidy
should be elected and hope that he
will. II There is any gratitude in the
workingmen they will rally to his
support and see that he is rewarded
for his services in their behalf by
being sent to represent his State IN
Congress. The West, especially the
workingmen of the West, need snch
representatives in The national Con-
gress.

sinking Piles I'm Sand.

The use of the water jet for sinking
piles, particularly in sand, is interesting.
A tube, generally of ordinary gas pipe,
open at the lower end. is fastened to the
pile; the upper end is connected by hose
to powerful pump. and. the pile being
placed in position ON the surface of the
sand. water Is forced through the tube
and excavates a passage for the pile,
which. by the application Of very light
pressure, descends rapidly to the desired
depth. The stream Of water must be
continuous, as it rises along the side of
the pile and keeps the sand In mobile
state. Immediately upon the cessation
Of pumping the sand settles about the
pile, and it is sometimes quite impossible
to afterward move it. The water Jet Is
used In sinking iron piles by conducting
the water through the interior of the hol-
low pile and out Of q hole at its point.
The piles or the great iron pier at Coney
Island were sunk with great celebrity In
this way.---John BogArt in Scribner' 8
