DR.. J. Eugene Jordan:
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 wife had suffered
for some time severely from catarrh and .
complication Of other diseases. which
made her life miserable. Ny daughter
also Was in delicate health. I was at-
tracted during my first visit by the care
and attention you gave to the whole case;
and, although | must confess that in the
beginning went to you merely Is an ex-
pertinent to see whether could find relief
for my wife and daughter, was so favora-
bly, impressed with the manner In which
you commenced your treatment that l
was inspired with confidence in your His
togsnetic system. That confidence was
not misplaced. because today, although
you have been treating my family for only
. few weeks, 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
home happier In every way, and | am now
so firmly convinced of the efficacy OF your
treatment that l will in future have no
other so far ~ myself and family are con-
cerned. write you this letter voluntarily
and without any solicitation on your part.
In fact, consider it my duty to thus pub
iiciy 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
communication. am, yours truly.

Christmas Observance.

The usual degree of gladstone gayety
incident to the Christmas holiday, was
materially lessened by the sad demise
oftwo of Clusters well known citizens
on that day. Upon this occasion, myth
gave place to sorrowing sadness,
by reason Of deaths relentless visitation,
which came with such crushing force
upon the aching hearts of surviving
relatives and friends, made desolate by
this sad decree.
AT the churches, the usual holiday
exercises were observed on Christmas
eve, which were largely attended. and
successfully carried out. The children
ofthe Sunday schools were most liber-
ally remembered, and the audiences
were favored with exercises of q most
pleasing and satisfactory character, re-
f~lecting much credit upon the managers,
and the bright and intelligent juvenile
participants.
