A WONDERFUL MAN.
HIS SUCCESS BROUGHT ON AN
ATTACK FROM HIS RIVALS.

Which Resulted in Letting the PeO-
PIE Know of His Marvellous Work.
History Repeats Itself and Oppres-
sion Is Observation-Disclosures In
stance where Merit Wins.
History has taught us and since time i'm
memorial it has been demonstrated that
any attempt to Cypress an individual or
an institution on account of the success
it may have attained is but to insure
greater victory where defeat was intend
ed. This has been proven in every instance
where persecution was attempted wheth-
er it be upon a particular religion, ma
tionality, character or a mans business.
The people, and particularly those of Amer
lea, will, in every instance, rally to the
| support Of the one who is battling against
a persecution and defend him to the last
This is particularly noticeable where a
| jealous attack Is made upon a mans bus-
| mess or profession purely because he has
merited success and that he is receiving
| more patronage than some who have
YET 10 prove their claims to greater
| amount than they obtain.
Inc boycott in America has proven a
Iallufe and any attempt to resurrect it to
the injury of a mans business or personal
welfare is promptly met with a rebuke

| had come among them for the purpose of
! curing the afflicted of any disease that
coulu De cured by the science Of medi-

diseases nad been pronounced incurable

FOR the first few days he did little. The
