Mr.. Peterson says he is Cured,
and as well as he ever was. DR..
Wilson says he is Cured. Write
and ask Mr.. Peterson if it is not so.
To the PuITc.
DR.. Wilson has reported a case
like the foregoing, each week or two,
for the past three years in the tri-
city papers. In the case of Mr..
Peterson, DR.. Wilson would state, he
has lived in Rock Island county for
over 80 years. He is director of a
fire insurance company, and is also
connected with the management of
Augustana college. Is he man to
be relied on? Let the public Judge.
Within the past three months DR..
Wilson has published the statements
and pictures of number of minis
tiers who say under their own sigma
lures that they have been Cured
at the Scott Medical Institute, Can
they be relied on as telling the truth d?
Let the public judge.
DR.. Wilson has noticed senseless
TRADE against him by Young firm
trying to do business in the tri-cities.
Some three weeks ago DR.. Wilson in
serted in the papers a statement tothe
effect that he would notice this baby
firm no more in print. Today he
says the same thing. 1t is no pleas
ure for us to work for nothing.
DR., Wilson has business interests
at stake in this state. The blowing
firm" have nothing to lose here
nothing that can be touched-there-
fore we decline to ozark where we
can not bite"
DR.. Wilson wishes to announce
to the general public that his diplo-
ma is registered with the county
clerk in this city and shows he has
practiced medicine years before
either of this great firm entered
practice.
Should we condescend to answer
this great firm" in the manner in
which they assaulted the Scott Medi-
cal Institute, we could bring forward
proof, which we have held in our
possession for months, that
would make them beat a hasty re-
treat from our city, or wish they had
never opened this discussion.
DR.. Wilson's plan has always been
''let our patients talk for us" And
when he has to elbow his own horn
for the sake of deceiving the public,
he will take down the sign Scott
Medical Institute" and close his bus
mess.
Does this look reliable? Let the
public judge.

YOUR HEARING.
Is it Gradually Growing DullerP-
Catarrh Causes it-Stop
it Now,

Mr.. Peterson's case illustrates the
danger of allowing these troubles to
run on, and should be carefully read
by everyone.
A very large per cent of these cases
of deafness and roaring noises is due
to the extension of catarrh to the
eustachian tubes and inner ears.
Many of the most remarkable cures
that have been accomplished by the
physicians of the Scott Medical In
stitute have been in the restoration
of hearing lost or dulled from ca
tarrhal extension. 1t is folly to wait
for trouble like this to get well it
self. 1t don't get well, but always
gets worse, until frequently the hear
ing is entirely destroyed. A thor
ough course of treatment with a ca
pable specialist, who goes right at
the cause of the trouble and removes
it. is the only hope.
DR.. Wilson and his medical asso-
ciates cure all cases of deafness
caused by catarrh.

supe rstition That Is Ancient.

In many parts of Great Britain the
superstition still survives that it is folly
or madness to save a drowning man, as
he will sooner or later do an injury to
the rescuer. The superstition comes
down from our ancestors, yet traces Of
it exist among the Sioux and other In
dams, who Seem to have inherited it
from abort FINAL sources. The belief is
most prevalent in Cornwall and various
parts of Scotland. Chicago Herald.

No kissing In Lnnan.

There is IN Japan no kissing, not even

have been SO eloquently described in
newspapers rising from the touch of lips

the national aversion for labial contact.

Explaining n Habit.

An observant statistician makes the
amazing assertion that girls with re-
trousse noses marry sooner and are more
fortunate in catching good husbands
than young ladies whose features are of
the Greek or Roman type. Then there
may be method in the habit of some
young ladies of turning up their noses at
every man that approaches them.-Bos-

BRIDGEPORT GAINS s1,OOO

By tho Flight of Dalton, the Green
 Goods Man.
 BRIDGEPORT, June 13.-Robert Dalton, the green goods man who was shot in this, city on Saturday by John Fahey, New Haven newspaper man, forfeited s1,00O band in the city court hsrs to-day.
 The charge of assault with intent to kill preferred against Fahey, was nolled.
 The case against Richard B. Howell editor of the Sunday Herald, who assisted in the capture of Dalton, was also nolled. The city paid Fahey twelve dollars and 8 half, the expense he incurred in working up the case against the green goods man.
 A charge of assault with intent to kill was preferred against Fahey, but the court asked the prosecuting attorney to nolle his case, as Fahey was assisting the state to bring criminal to justice. Judge Kane declared that the end justified the means by which the accused succeeded in captur- ing the New York crook.
