TAKE YOUR choice !;
And History, Seldom Erring,
Will Record You
Sage or Savage.

On the one side you have the old schools
OF medicine, born in obscurity and reared
In ignorance, with whom medlocrlty
ranks genius and fossilized conserva-
tlsm Is the acme of wisdom. They are the
product OF parched imagination and a
stunted intellect. They are the result of
the dark ages and the thumbscrew, of
myth and mystery, of aStrology and al
chemy. Their great boast Is antiquity
but the title is disputed by Baalams ass.
On the other side stands the Histogentic
system of medicine. Ii is the offspring of
modern thought. of modern investigation,
of modern experience. Tits the result of
research, the triumph of reason. Like
Minerva, it sprang from the brain OF modern
Jupiter-science. Its challenge is investi-
CATION. its passport is truth. Which side
will win?
SEArTEE. Wash, June 9, 1891.
Our baby Was very sick, and we tried
several physicians in turn. None OF them
seemed TO know what the matter was. She
couldn't stand; couldn't play; it was Diff
cult for her to get her breath; she had
choking spells from the time she was
months old; would choke every five min
utes during the night, and was subject TO
Commissions and muscular contraction.
We had about given up hope of her getting
well, when we took her to DR.. Jordan, and
in very short time she commenced to inn
prove, until all these symptoms have dis
appeared entirely. and she has not had q
sign of them for some time.
1t gives me great pleasure TO make this
statement. so that others who have chill
dren that are i'll may know where to take
them for treatment.

SEATTLE, WAsHINeToS,l
April 20, 1891.
Three years ago my son was taken sick
with pneumonia, which left him with a
terrible cough He got gradually worse,
and continually expectorated pus. We
travelled around in different parts of Cali
fornia with him, consulting doctor after
doctor. None of them could do him any
good. He got so very bad that after COM
ing to Seattle we had a half dozen promi-
nent physicians here in town TO see him.
They said his left lung was all gone and
that he could not possibly live. Hearing
of DIR. Jordan we sent for him. He came
up and pronounced it bad case, but said
he thought he could pull him through all
right. He commenced to pick up right
away, and in couple of months was able
to go to work.
We cannot be thankful enough to DR..
Jordan for what his medicines have done
for my dear son. We now use nothing
but the Histogenetic medicines in case of
sickness. HANNAH JOHNSTON,

Columbus, o., in December, 1862 He was
brought up, however, in Omaha, Neb., and it
was i'll the amateur clubs of that city that he
received his first lessons in ball playing. The
story of his development into pitcher is an
interesting one. In the summer of 1889, w. E.

Omaha, which every Sunday played at Lake
Wanawa, a summer resort near the city.
The "Kid" at that time was a bare-footed
youngster, playing ball on the commons He had
never attempted to pitch, but had quite a repu-
tation among the younger amateurs as an out
fielder. One sunday the Garneaus were short
man and Manager Rockwell, who was ac-
quainted with Camp, pressed the boy into serv-
ice and put him in center field. AS the game
progressed the manager, finding that his pitcher
was being batted too heavily to suit him, cast
about for another man to put in the box. From
lack OF any one else he picked out the young
substitute in the outfield. The "Kid" protested
that he couldn't pilch, but finally decided to
try. Although he hadn't mastered the curves,
he had considerable speed and fairly sue
eessful. The following Sunday he was put in reg
ularly to pitch and made good showing.
In the next game the teams regular pitcher
put in the box, but was again batted SO hard
that he was taken out. Young Camp was sub
stitutsd second time, and pitched out the
game. On tho sunday following it rained, and
later when "Rox" looked about for his boy
phenomenon, he found he had branched out as

Portland played faultless fielding game.

innings, and as Spokane touched him rather
