MORE MARVELLOUS CURES.
YITAPATHIC SCIENCE, THE FORE
 MOST METHOD

Of Healing Disease--Dr, Damon Its Chief Exponent-Hundreds Already Cured in
 New Haven-A Large sanitarIum Soon to be Opened.
 In making tour of the hospitals, dlspensaries and doctors offices one is appalled,, not only at the vast number of invalids seeking relief, but at the numerous forms of disease. Possibly there is not one of this immense army that would not gladly sacrifice his last dollar in the restoration of his former good health, Alas, in many instances the last dollar has been spent, but to no purpose, It is for this despalring yearning multitude we write this mes sage of hope and good cheer, for new gospel is taking the place of the 'infal- lible rules" and "heroic measures of the older schools. This new method Of treating disease is known as Vitapathy a science that can prove itself by ma<- ing the deaf to hear, the blind to see, the lame to walk, and, In brief, adapt itself to every form of disease. These results are accomplished frequently in the twinkling of an eye, so to speak, without the aid of surgery or noXlous dosing or any process other than agree able, as efficacious This science CT Vitapathy, or healing by the laying on of hands, has been reduced to absolute perfection by Dr. Damon, it's chief eX- ponent in the east His skill has prov en that there is no disease amenable to this method that is not curable. Every nfe,, ,xrhp cp1lp'bt him aS a last hope, after having been given up py their own physicians are being dis charged completely cured. There IS no ailment he has not treated successful ly, nor will he undertake a case that IS beyond mortal aid, whatever the m ducement, for he understands the limit of a science that has no parallel Tn scope or achievement. Women sutter- ing from diseases peculiar to their sex will find upon consulting Dr. Damon that they are not to be tortured by in struments, or mechanical appliances, in order to obtain the relief and cure they seek, for the Vitapathy science repudiates these as being both brutal and barbaric, and never necessary.
 Dr. Damon and his able assistants are at the Elliott House every day eX- cept Sunday.
 Among those discharged cured dur ing the week is Mrs. Abner Smith. Thls lady has had a tumor removed without the aid of the knife. MT, Charles Sim clair had suffered with rheumatism for four years He, too, says he Is entirely we'll MT. Marshall has been cured Of rheumatism and returns home to-day. Several cases of deafness have had their hearing restored and now hear perfectly. At least a dozen cases of uterine and bladder troubles have been cured iii the last few weeks, while sev- eral now under treatment pronounce their cases well on the road to health These physicians are the same who performed marvellous cures upon the open stage at the Hyperion and War ner hall, when at least-20,000 people attended and witnessed the grandest work ever seen in this country. We learn that a large sanitarium is now being fitted up in New York city eX- pressly for Dr. Damon and his Vita pathic associates. It will be ready for occupancy about October 12.

his directions, shaped his course out the street on the right side and kept on until he came to 509 again, He studied it from every possible point of view, even trying to stand on his head to read it. but it perVersely remained 509,
 Utterly bewildered, he sat down on the steps, and waited til policeman came along,
 I'm losht, he explained. "T wantcr go ter 206 Trvington street"

The House Number Looked Strange Be
 Cause the Transom Was Turned Over.
 From the San Francisco Post.(
 If any one had told him he was drunk he would not have resented it, but would have made an effort to maintain his equilibrium and dignity long enough to explain that he was only little oozy-woozy He realized that he lived at 2O6 Irvington street, and that his residence was on the right hand side as he wabbled along home ward. The uncertain light of early dawn, combined with the blear in his eyes, rendered it necessary for him to stop in front of every house and grave ly brace himself against the railings until he could focus his eyesight on the number
 Finally he identified his house, but after arguing with himself for a couple of minutes he came to the conclusion that he was just woozy enough to make mistakes possible so to be abso- lutely certain he balanced himself against the front fence and studied the number on the transom. Instead of 206 he saw 509. He rubbed his eyes and looked again, but the number had not changed. It was still 509. Then he wondered how it happened that he had got on the wrong side of the street and three blocks too far out made a zigzag across the street and started back, but before he had walked three blocks he came to the end of the street.

THE STATE CAMPAIGN.

Ex-Governor Robert L. Taylor
opened the State campaign Tues
day at Loudon in a speech which
was mastery effort. He spoke
to the largest crowd ever assembled
at Loudon, and the enthusiasm that
he aroused was marvellous, and in
dictated the great feeling the Dem
ocrats have in the forthcoming cam
paign. Nothing like it has been
seen in East Tennessee since the
days just after reconstruction. He
aroused prolonged cheers and ere
ated the widest enthusiasm when
he declared for free silver, the Chi
cago platform and the nominees Of
the Chicago convention.
He favored the passage of a con-
stitutional amendment that would
permit an income tax and favored
the repeal of the State tax on bank
issues. He favored a reform of the
fee system, a tariff for revenue only
and closed with an earnest appeal
to all Democrats to come together
in harmony and give such a Demo-
cratic majority for the whole ticket,
State and NationaA as shall set at
rest for all time the question Of the
Democracy Of Tennessee.
