What Dr.. MacTaggagt
HAS DONE AND is DOING.

The Doctor wishes the public TO understand
that he is not soliciting the ordinary run OF
cases, but desires just such diseases to treat
that other physicians cannot succeed with or
at least fail 10 cure. When you suffer from
such consult HIN consultation Is free, have
him thoroughly diagnose your case, and then
what he tells you can be relied upon as a fact
beyond refutation. Some may say, "Why go TO
DR.. MacTaggart when we have as good doctors
here as anywhere?" Yes, so you have in their
line OF practice, but not in those .specialtles
that DR.. MacTaggart Is schooled and practiced
in. In support OF this unqualified assertion
read his testimonials-not only read them, but
investigate the truthfulness OF them. Where
are the physicians who can remove cancers
without pain and cure II beyond peradyenture?
He does It. Where can you tlnd another ply
siCian In Pennsylvania who can remove tumors
Or even CD pounds weight without the use OF
the knife, without pain, and without leaving
scar? DR.. Macraggart does it. What physl-
clan can cure fistulas without cutting or caus-
ing the least pain or soreness during Treatment?
DR.. MacIaggart does II successfully These
are golden truths-gOlden because II proves be-
yond dispute that the science OF medicine In
speclalties particularly, is advancing with
rapid strides far in the lead OF the regular
practitioner. l-lS-ly.

COLD DRAueHrs OF AIR.
A Simple Way of Avoiding One of whit
er's Greatest Dangers.

A Simple Way of Avoiding One OF whit
er's Greatest Dangers.
AS the season is now on when the
bald, the thin-blooded and those whose
rheumatics always are in evidence,
when the glass is in the neighborhood
of thirty degrees start to look about
for draughts in the house. Several
weeks ago, in tho fall of the year, says
a writer in the Boston Transcript, I
was sick for weeks, and when at last
| was able to sit up in my sitting
room, which faced the northwest, dur
ing the daytime, and wishing to see
the passers-by, had place near a
large window.
The room had open CRATE, also
furnace heat, and the thermometer
easily registered seventy to seventy
five degrees, but with all this warmth
there was a draught-as l thought, on
my head and neck. Every one said
that the cold air came in at the win
dow sash. / sent for the weather-strip
man and, Of course, he discovered
or thought he did-the cause, and put
on his rubber moulding, so that the
sash when closed was tight. Now"
he said, you Will have no more trou-
BILE in that direction"
The next cold snap the same old
gale OF wind appeared. When my doc
tor came l spoke to him in regard to
1t, when he informed me that IL was
not the cold air from the outside that
l felt, but the warm air Of the room,
which went to the top of the window,
struck the cold glass, cooled and then
fell down" as the cold air would had
not the casing been air-tight. He
then said: Drop your curtain about
a third and keep it there"
l did as he directed, and then the
gale stopped, and l had no trouble
after that. He told me that the same
trouble existed in most houses, even
those that were well-heated in the
halls and chambers, the heat going to
the top, cooling and falling back, so
that one coming from a warm room
downstairs and going up would think
that there must be windows open
above.
OF course, double windows would
remedy this cooling off process in the
rooms but with the curtains down a
little they prevent the instant cooling
of the warm air, and there is no
draught. You will notice that these
"draughts" are about during the day
more than at night and always less In
the room where there is a lamp. Why?
Simply when you light your lamps or
the gas you draw down the shades
and the heat does not strike the cold
glass.

New Work for Women Doctors.

AS an illustration Of the improved
status of lady doctors, once so gener-
ally regarded with prejudiced distrust,
it is interesting to note, says Lon

offices has just appointed lady ply
sician to conduct the medical exam

IT'S JUST LIKE A WOMAN.

To scold about little troubles and be
brave about big ones.
To try independence, succeed in 1t,
but prefer it not.
To faint at mice and spank tigers
with a broomstick.
To value a baby above the world;
or pug above a baby.
To keep nine commandments more
easily than the tenth.
To look at the most undeserving Of
men through the kindly spectacles Of
pity.
To toll life long for social position,
or throw it away for love in an in
staht.
To overestimate their own beauty
far less than they underestimate their
own goodness.
To retain despite many bitter expe-
riences the trust Of good heart in
human nature.-New York Recorder.

Care of Table Linen.

Before sending table linen to the
wash it should be looked over, the
thin places darned so as to prevent
the holes being made during the pro-
cess Of washing. Use fine linen thread
for the purpose and fine needle, and
then the darning should hardly be
visible on the right side. Table linen
should never be darned on its return
from the wash, for this crumples it
and renders it unfit for use.

Is THIS LIKE KANSAS

Chicago Times Herald Says We Are Won
derful One Way aud Another.
Col D. R Anthony delivered an adj
dress before the Million club at SaIina,
last week, which calls forth the follow
ing from the Chicago Times Herald:
There was a convention of real estate
dealers at Salina, in Kansas, the other
day, for what purpose nobody outside
that state can possibly imagine, but dur
ing the meeting Colonel Anthony, d vet
eran journalist, arose, and in the course
of his eloquence declared that Kansas
ought to furnish "the east an object les
SON" As if, forsooth, the thirty fourth
sister in the union had not always been
an object lesson, from its inception as a
territory until the present time
From the moment it appeared on the
map it was sensational. and its name is
connected with much that is bloodiest as
we'll as all that is most heroic in our ma
tional history. 1t was the skirmish
ground preceding the civil war, and was
the home at once of Osawatomie Brown
and of the guerrilla Quantrill. From it's
ption it never was anything but SEN
sational, and was governed by border
rufIians or by abolitionists in turn. 1t
was never sane, and in the early days
was always ''bleeding Kansas" and even
yet it deserves the name.
Within its borders there is always a
feast or Il famine, chill or fever. One
year it produces such crops that the
price of grain is depressed the world
over, aud another year it is so devastated
by drought or dreached by tempests
that not enough grain is grown for seed.
Once or twice the grasshoppers have
made an onslaught upon it, jevouring
everything visibly green but the inhabi-
tants.
In one half of the state it never rains
and in the other half when it does rain
it brings food. 1t is always at ex-
tremes and such it has been for forty
one years, when Stephen A. Douglas first
organized it as territory and broke
down the Missouri compromise.
Some superstitiou5 people might think
it a child OF sin, but we do not think so.
It is simply the child of circumstances
and environment.
An object lesson forsooth! Well, we
should think it was!

rheumatism ia a Few Hours.
Judge Nue., whose popularity in
Brooklyn was demonstrated by the i'm
mense majorities by which he was elected
and gentleman of Improbable charac-
ter, in speaking of Professor Munyon's
says:
IL consider Munyon's rheumatism
Cure the best in the world. When l be-
gan to use his remedy l was unable to
walk without the aid of crutches at
times; this had been going on for nine
years, and the day before l began using
it could not get up the steps to the
Court room. After taking a few doses
/ was Immediately relieved, and in three
days was completely cured"
Munyon's rheumatism Cure is guaran-
teed to cure rheumatism in any part of
the body. Acute or muscular rheuma-
tism cured in from one TO five days. 1t
never fails to cure sharp, shooting pains
in the arms, legs, sides. back or breast
or soreness in any part of the body in
from one to three hOurs. It is guarau-
teed to promptly cure lameness, stiff and
swollen joints, stiff back. and ali pains
in the hips and loins. Chronic rheuma-
tism, sciatica, lumbago or pain in the
back speedily cured.
Munyon's Homeopathic Home Rem
dy Company, of Philade lBhia, put up
specifies for nearly every disease, which
are sold by all druggists mostly for %
cents a bottle.
Those who are in doubt as to the ma
ture of their disease should address Pro-
lessor Munyon. 1905 Arch street. Phil

disease Professor Munyon will care

benefit of his advice absolutely free of
all charge. The Remedies will be sent

Mr. Thomas is not a well man, and
neither he nor the children had anything
to eat on the day they reached this city,
but he had determined to start afoot for
Wichita, where his mother lives, on the
same evening.
At o'clock last evening the case was
discovered and the babies turned over to
the charge of MatrOn Thorpe, who fed
them and provided clothing Transpor-
tation was furnished by Poor Commits

Bystanders-
''Vere is mine jug of visky?' asked
Mike Etzel of Jailer Disbrow, after the
case had been dismissed against him.
Ppm sure l don't know where it is, ;"
replied the jailer.
Etzel thought that another conspiracy
had been sprung upon him. He knew
we'll that the police had taken from his
house big jug of whisky, and even
Chief Wilkerson and Sergeant Ellison
testified on the witness stand that 1--WE
have the jug of whisky now"
Finally it flushed across the brain of
the jailer that the jug might be down in
the basement, so jailer, poll cemen, Etzel
and his friends, and other hangers on,
made pilgrimage down stairs.
Arriving there the large assortment of
jugs and bottles was shown to Etzel.
He picked out his jug and raising it
high up, ''tasted" it. Anywhere from a
half pint to a pint of the liquor ran down
his eager throat. All the others were
offered smile" Then the proud Etzel
climbed the stairs. and entering the
court room said to Police Judge Ferry,
as he raised mp the jug: Here We are.
Have drink
"Take that fellow out of here" ex-
claimed the Judge as he gave Etzel
disguised look. But Etzel was glad
enough to get away from the police sta
ton, and he carried the jug back to
Little Russia" amid the congratulations
of his colleagues.
