clared lost. continued the worthy forman,

ceptiOn OF the engineers, who were members
of the Brotherhood No reason is given for
this discrimination
InNew York, the state OF the order is still
more flattering than in Brooklyn. Brother
Cuff stated that District Assembly 40, Of

its increasing membership, and also sent
word that the city Of New York, alone,
would send at least eleven, if not more,
delegates TO the general assembly in Wash

eleven delegates requires a constituency
OF upwards Of fifty thousand, which viii

HOW Do YOU DO :?
Are You Well
To-dayP
If Not You MAY Become So-- DR..
Walker, the Eminent Specialist,
May Be Consulted Free
Of Charge.
HE CURES WHEN ALL OTHERS
FAIL.
Cost of Treatment Low and
Medicine from His Own
Laboratory.

The great issues of the day are not po-
litical, theological, financial, but physical.
Without health we are bankrupt amid
affIuence. Below are given some OF the
many forms OF chronic disorders that DR..
Walker treats with success. You should
see him. He can cure you.
THE SKIN.
This is one OF the most important organs
of the body. 1t covers very large area,
and is intrusted by nature with important
duties. When it is in a healthy condition
il relieves the kidneys of much of their
work On the other hand, when the skin
is not performing its legitimate functions
the kidneys must be overworked. Skin
disorders are not understood by general
practitioners. They neglect them because
SO many skin diseases are of a chronic ma
ture and do not kia at once. 1t is almost
imperative that person afflicted with
skin disease should consult a specialist.
Among the skin diseases that DR.. Wal
ker cures may be mentioned acue, ecze-
ma, taenia, vercicolor, ringworm, ulcers,
psoriasis, brown spots, and a large variety
of other chronic and acute skin diseases
that physicians in general practice can not
treat successfully. All forms of skin dis
ease resulting from specific causes or
blood poison he can eliminate aud cure.
Even the most obstinate and long stand
ing cases can be entirely cured aud the
poison eradicated.
The Washington times., 1895-06-09
THE NERVES.


Among all the structures of the body
the nerves are the most delicate, and the
most liable to get out of repair In most
people, IN fact, the nerves begin To show
signs of disorder before the other organs.
AT first there Will be only a languor steal
ing over the senses, a sense of WEAKNESS
without cause; tendency To dTowsiness
by day, with sleepiess nights. Then viii
follow an Impairment of the digestion,
constipation will ensue, until the unfortu-
nate victim suffers by day as Wei as by
night.
Dr. Walker is every day proving that all
this can be obviated. When the nerves be-
come weak and the alarm is sounded you
know there is something wrong. Every
pain you have. every hour of restiessness
at night, every hour of drowsiness by day,
means that something is wrong What to
do? that is the question. Consult DR..
Walker before the grayer disorders de-
velop.
Among the other chronic nervous dis
orders DR.. Walker has testimonials on file
which can be seen by all who are interest
ed, certifying to the cure of the following
diseases: Nervous debility, nervous pros
tration, impotence, insomnia, melancholia
or mental depression, paralysis, numb
ness, weakness, and trembling, st. Vitus'
dance, neTyois headache, epilepsy, and a
large variety of other functional and or
ganic nervous diseases.
CATARRH AND THROAT DISEASES.
Catarrh is one of the most prevalent dis
eases of this climate; also one of the most
disag reeahle. 1t is an inflammation of
the mucous surface of the head, and from
the nostrils it drips backward and in
wolves the throat, larynx and pharynx.
The symptoms are pain over the eyes,
with a discharge from the nose, and a
throat. IL often extends to the bones of
the nose, ulcers form, and the inflamma-
ton gradually extends, and may end in
consumption Among hundreds of cases
that Dr. Walker has cured, we mention
but one to-day. Others are on file and
may be seen on application.
DR.. Walker has cured large number of
cases of catarrh, and has many testimo-
malls to that effect. Among them is Mr..
william Moore, who resides at Is NJ street
southeast, and who is at present employed
on the new Cong ressional Library. Mr..
Moore says:
Before l came to DR.. Walker my head
had been stopped up for over year. L
had not seen time for months that one
nostriI- or the other was not clogged up.
My throat was constantly dry, and hurt
me to swallow. My head is now entirely
free and clear, and all pain and disag rec
able symptoms have left me.
(signed) ''WM. MOORE"
Dr. Walker may be consulted free OF
charge at his well-known sanitarium, 14l
Pennsylvania avenue, adjoining Wizards
to D. M; Wednesday and Saturday even
ings, Z to 6; Sunday, 10 to IL.
Charges for treatment very low.
All interviews and correspondence sa-
credly confidential. No cases made public
without consent of patients.

DECISION ON UNION LABELS
Not Trade Mark. but Not Usable on Non
Union Goods.

Not o Trade Mark, but Not disable on Nom
Union Goods.
ST. LOUIS. April 24.-The state court OF
appeals in the case OF the state VS..
Bailenzheimer, who was convicted in the
st. Louis criminal court of counterfeiting
the union label" of the Cigarmakers
union, reversed the finding Of the lower
court on the grounds that a trade mark
must be q mark or label used by u certain
party to designate his goods. The union
LABEL Is not a trade mark. 1t Is one OF
the indispensable requisites to valid
trade mark that it should point out the
true origin or ownership Of u vcndible
commodity to which 1t is fixed.
The label does not have this quality.
This association adopted tho label as q
trade mark without owning or dealing in
any goods to which 1t must be attached
Therefore no title to it rs o trade mark
can accrue. For this reason a person can.
not be convicted Of counterfeiting such q
trade mark. The court holds, however.
that an injunction and damage suit can
be had under similar circumstances, pro-
vided that 1t is proven that the label is
placed on non-uniOn goods.

Works as an Absolute Divorces.

MADISON. Wis, April 24-By q decision
of the supreme court the validity Of the
law which provides that life imprison.
ment works absolutely as a divorce with
out further legal proceedings is estab
lished. In the case on trial the wife
married, without getting a divorce, two
years after her husband was sent to
prison for life. Her husband got a new
trial and his conviction was set aside
when proceedings were begun against
his late wife's new husband. The su
preme court decided that the first convio.
ton worked an absolute divorce, making
the wife's second marriage valid.
