JUST LIKE DOCTORS.
Illinois Health Board Like Others Ex-
lists to Shut Out Brains.

Chicago, Dec. 6.-Professor John At
kinsOn. the London bonesetter, was
compelled to postpone indefinitely his
free clinics yesterday through orders
from the state board of health.
Secretary Eagan telegraphed from
Springfield to the manipulative surgeon
that he would have to secure a license
to practice medicine from the proper
authorities before he could proceed
with his demonstrations. Several lam
dred persons were turned away from
Central Music hall on account of the
official mandate, and a crowd of Grip
pies hObbled from the Palmer house
without securing an interview with the
famous foreigner.
After Prof. Atkinson had recovered
from his first chagrin he threatened to
take legal steps to nullify the inter
ference of the board. He declared that
he was not practicing medicine, and
had sought ever since his sojourn in
the United States to correct that i'm
preston. To his admirers who depend
upon his skill for relief he held out the
hope that he would be able to continue
his charitable work by Monday.
Prof Atkinson attributed the action
of the state board to the jealousy of a
number of physicians who have oppos-
ed his system for several years.

Easter ShOW.WindOWS,

Columbia's merchants are spread.
ing" themselves on window dis
plays Just now, and their Easter
windows present scenes of perfect
loveliness.
Miss Easter" the latest model of
fashion and beauty, can be seen in
McKennon, Anderson & Fosters
window. She is modest young
lady, but can stand the stare of the
most curious. Much credit is due
this firm, and Miss Nellie Carroll,
for their nice display.
The old hen and her chickens,
with innumerable brilliantly hued
eggs, are on exhibition at Messrs.
Woodbridge & Irvine's and it would
repay anyone to take peep at their
Easter novelties.
The Trade Palace has an elegant
display of Easter millinery, dress
| goods, slippers, ETC., which are truly
representative of the goods inside
| their store. Their millinery depart
ment, in the rear of the store, is one
| of the prettiest places in town, and
they can please the most critical
when it comes to trading.
The Maury Dry Goods Company
are showing in their windows one OF
the finest lot of spring shoes and
dress goods in town, and while oul
friends are looking around for
Easter goods, they would do well tC
inspect the nice things to be fount
on the inside.
Rosenthal, as usual, has on exhibi.
ton the "up-to-date" line of mems
clothing and shoes, fine dress goods
etc.
These are the merchants wht
have made the most extensive dis
plays for Easter, but the others will
doubtless be ION deck" to-day or to-
morrow.

The "COunty Pump"

The county officials have con-
ferred a great favor upon a long
suffering public by providing cool,
wholesome water in the courthouse,
where it can be easily reached by
the great number of country people
who crowd our streets on Saturdays
and Mondays. A pipe has been run
from the corporation cistern on the
square into the courthouse hall
where a pump has been placed, and
thirsty crowds, during the heated
summer days, can drink pure cisterr
water at their own sweet Will.
