Doubtful Medical Testimonials
Are the Many: Published Cures in
the Daily Papers True2

Many people who read the advertised Testimonials
OF wonderful medical cures are apt to- ASK SiIe
many of them seem incredible. not pre-
pared to say they untrue. We know the state
ments we have frequently published regarding Dr:
Walker, the great specialist in the treatment of
nervous, brain and chronic diseases, are true; many
of them are from well-known, prominent citizens
of Washington, who on being interviewed, declare
1.-The half has not been told and that many of
Or. Walkers most wonderful never
heard of ny the public as he makes 1t an invaria-
BILE rule to never divulge patients name or any
facts regarding case except after full. free per.
mission has first been granted by the patient, and
many Of his most remarkable restoratiOnS con
cealed from the public owing 10 the patients dihl-
deIce. A large number of the remarkable state
ments we have published from time to time or
seemingly impossible cures wrought by Dr. Walker
sworn to before notary public, and rs the
signers well known, none can doubt their truth
There is no doubt that a physician who makes ii
life study of certain ailments, as DR.. Walker has
dCre, for twentyfou years. of nervous, brain and
chronic diseases, is better qualified to treat ana
dcavors to cover the whole wide range OF com
plants that affect humanity.
Although DIR. Walkers practice is large ana e1-
tensive and steadily increasing, and his ti,ne Is
in constant demand, he has always firmly adhered
to his system of small fees: he never makes n
charge of any kind for consultation examination
or advice. This places the wonderful benefit OF his
great skill within the reach of all. In add ion TO
the large number Of callers he sees daily he yet
finds time to answer personally the many letters
he constantly receives from out of town sufferers
who seek his aid advice. DIR. Walker makes II
an ironclad rule to only accept for treatment tIse
told their condition and sent away:
Young middle-aged men suffering from the ef-
fects of their own follics excuses, those who
feel their youthful vigor declining. should consult
DR.. Walker, who has been the means of restoring
hundreds of such unfortunates to health. strength
and happiness.

The commissioner of the internal reve-

members of the House. Mr.. Miller says
that some of the questions that Senator
Hill has done away with are necessary TO
be answered to obtain the full list of citf-
the success of the collection Of the income
tax that he would rather have the resolu-
tion defeated and the one to secure an eX-

In accordance with the commissioners

IN THE INTEREST OF SILVER.
Another Monetary Conference Pro
posed in the ReichstaS.


Count Won Mrbach. German conserva-
tive, introduced 4 resolution in the Ger
man reichstag yesterday instructing the
federal governments of Germany to issue
Invitations for an international monetary
congress, to take measures to bring about
the rehabilitation of silver as circulating
medium.
Count Won Mirbach said that the moment
had now arrived for Germany TO take the
initiative in settling this question, which Is
one of the greatest Importance
The question, said Count Won Mirbach,
was one of life or death for husbandry. as
well as for the export industry. Bimetal-
ism would cause the rise of all prices In
England, where gold was the currency.
Agriculture would be ruined if the present
system was maintained. America would
either absorb Germany's gold or adopt a
pure silver standard and capture the whole
eastern trade.
Other supporters of the resolution said
that they Endorsed the position that Ger
many had taken at the Paris monetary
conference in 1883, namely, that she re-
Garded an international agreement upon
ratio between gold and silver desirable.

Paper Hosiery.

From the Clover.
PAPER loves and hosiery are named as
among the very latest novelties. Stock
ings which shall sell at three cents pair
are proposed. In fact, the experiment OF
making paper stockings has been going on
for several months, and the party engaged
therein believes that paper mittens or
gloves would posses advantages in their
season. The goods are light and airy and
very comfortable in summer.
When finished and dyed their appearance
Is similar to ordinary fabric goods. The
knitting Is from paper yarns. The paper
yarns arc made pretty much after the plan
of making common paper twines, except
that the former are put through certain
special processes. The principle is that of
making sort of a nap OF the yarn. This
is done automatically. Ordinary paper
Irvine or yarn is too Smoo-h but good
lsggiuS UP gives the yarn 81. nap and this
inra~ts softness. After the knitting has
been done the goods are placed in sizing

which i'uparts soiidity and durability to
the texture.

water pails,why not paper socks and stock
