OF III practice. mat treatment was no
more severe than cupping and far more
direct in application. But during the
pat i've or SIX years or since the french
form of influenza fastened upon us, there
has been amarked and alarming increase
IN the number OF people addicted to
snoring. 1t Is peculiarly OF tins NAL
ady that the sufferers are not confined to
those attacked. Like the delirium ire

iOus forms OF nervous unrest, snoring
awaSens an antagomsm IN the human
breast that mere medicine is powerless
to subdue.

An acquaintance living ON w est End

thoroughly developed case OF snoring
that has appealed to medical science in
recent times. his life up to the past
year has been exemplary, but it Is the
plain, unvarnished truth to say that he
now looks upon himself as victim to
the ina2dequacy OF medical science to
reach his case. His wife has left him,
taking the children with her, and while
1t Is unlikely that the case IN Wis
consin will be taken as precedent for
procuring a divorce there can be no
doubt that the couple are irrevocably
separated. That husband was deeply at
