Mrs. o. B. Kilburn, from near
Chillicothe, Mo-, sister-in-law of
NJ. D. Cole, of the Still Hotel, is
an enthusiastic friend of Oste-
opathy. She came to Kirksville
about three weeks ago very near
DEATHS door. She had to be car
ried from the train, being too
weak to walk. Stomach disorder
was her rro1ble. Every few weeks
she would have attacks of vomit-
ing which would come upon her
whenever she attempted to take
food. These frightful fits of vomit-
ing would continue many days, or
until she was completely exhaust
ed. Then she would recuperate
slightly and could take a little
soft food. But these intervals
were of sort duration, and in ii
few days another vomiting spell
would begin. She grew so weak
and emaciated that it was feared
she could not live to reach Kinks
villG, but arrived here safely and
after three weeks treatment is
able to walk to the Infirmary for
treatment. All symptoms of the
disorder have disappeared under
Osteopathic treatment. This is
the second time Osteopathy has
saved Mrs. Kilburn's life. Six
years ago she came here after hav-
ing been given up to die from an
other trouble. Under DR.. Stills
treatment she became sound and
well.

known druggist of Rock Rapids,

ary. Mr.. Goold came to Kinks.
vile with a so called hopeless
case of asthma. The trouble was
of eighteen years standing. Iowa
physicians said it was foolishness
to entertain even a hope of cure,
because they said his asthma was
complicated with heart disease
Mr.. Goold tried everything he
could fnd- all the "infallibIe'
asthma patent medicines, he trav-
eled, changed climate, went tt
Eureka Springs, all to nopurposc
Being a druggist Mr.. Goold hat
many good friends among the
physicians in his locality. They
were all equally certain that his
case was beyond medical help
what medicine could not do coult
not be accomplished, hence il
would be time and money wasted
TO try Osteopathy. But the vel
meaning counsel of friends wa.
diSregarded. A little over two
weeks ago Mr.. Goold landed il
this city. Since the first treat
ment he has not had single
symptom of asthma. In view O
the fact that the weather has beer
rainy and changeable during tn,
entire time, Mr.. Goold feels salts
fed that permanent cure wa!
effected. He now sleeps perfect
ly, takes long walks, climbs hills
ETC., but so far he has not sue
ceeded in bringing on a single
recurrence of his old trouble. He
will remain several weeks Longer
and will then 60 south to spent
the winter. DR.. Conner has charge
of Mr.. Goold's case.
