LECTURE
AT NEW SWEDEN, CARIBOU, ME.

Last Tuesday evening, Nav the 10Th,
DR.. SprOule delivered a lecture to the
people of Jemtand and New Sweden at
the hall. The whole place was Ill lee To
overlooking, and many had to be satisfied
to stand on the stairs and outside. The
meeting opened by selection from the
Jemtland Band, and song by Landgrame
family. fo na
The doctor then took the subject prop
er for the lecture in charge, and we must
say according to our judgment handled
physiology in most easy and mastery
way, describing the functions of the diff
ferent parts of the human body us plainly
and precisely, tracing the causes of most
diseases TO the chest and stomach; warn
ing and advising how to assist the cause
and miss the effect. During the lecture
a life-SiZe chart of human being was
used to illustrate the subject in question.
This chart consisted of an immense num-
Der of sections, each section opened like
a door, and for every door thus opened
new and interesting sights met the eyes
of the audience and were explained by
the DR.. 1t was surprising first to hear
with what ease the long medical names
came forth and secondly the unpreten-
tious way it was delivered. The first
showed the thorough familiarity the DR..
possesses in regard to professional sub
jects and secondly that it is his duty TO
know this thoroughly and does not con-
slider it extraordinary but just as it
ought to be
After the lecture the audience was
treated to music by the band and song
Testimonials were given by number Of
the doctors patients present. All these
were full of gratitude to the doctor for
the help he had given them. Among
those specially so were Mrs. Magnuson,
who said: cdr. Sproule has done more
for me and my family than | can positive
ly tell you in few words, and the graft
tude L feel toward the doctor can't be en-
pressed. He has operated upon my boy
and cut away growth upon his neck
which compelled him to keep his head in
Il most unnatural position and here he is
now to be examined by any one and for
you all to look at'' (raising the boy to
standing position on a chair.) Mr.. Mag
nuson, Jr., was a good looking, bright
lad, about ten years old, and so far as
looks are concerned, perfectly natural,
straight and happy, and he said, "nr.
Sproule has cured me, and am thankful
to him. Mrs. Magnuson proceeded fur
ther and said 'My husband, who is also
q patient of the doctors. but not present,
wishes me to say Not half of the spec
flied time has yet passed, but he is per-
fectly cured and does not need any more
medicine and am happy to say, so am /,
thanks to DR.. Sproule."
Mr.. l.. Stadig said NEARLY the whole
of nv family has been under Dr. Sproule's
care. My two children went there by
themselves just to find what he could do
for them. After the doctor had eXamin-
ed them he told them he could cure them
and they at once submitted To his treat
ment and are well to-day. L myself have /
been blind in one eye for number of
years. This the doctor could not cure
and frankly told me So" So by putting /
all things together, the testimonials we
have heard and my own experience with
DR.. Sproule l am sure he is not only an
extra good physician but an earnest and
square man, who treats all as he agrees
to. E. O. Hedman, Mrs. Benson, Mr..
