MANLY MEN!

Unfortunately, many men have. by fast liv-
Ing, youthful indiscretiOn or oyerwork, shat
tered their nerves so tbat they are sexually
weak and lack the yigor and robustness OF
complete manhood. They have lost their
grip, and the mastery that they should
possess, AS men, has deserted them.
Men IN this condition naturally worry and
fret until worry brings on lunacy. and all this
10 greatly aggravated by u1principled quacks
VINO under pretense OF curing the patient,
only take their money and fail 20 give them
an equivalent In sexual strength. The reason
IL that they do not possess a remedy adequate

ned the skill on the greatest physicians OF the
age. But Is there a cure on which you may
relyy We eanswer yes, in niue cases out Of 10,

two years ago and offered si00 IL We could re-
store his lost manhood. He had suffered for.
10 years, aud tried different advertised reme-
dies In vain, but by our secret method OF
treatment cure was ereoled which proved
permanent.
Anoth,r striking case was that OF a man OF
20 who as anEious to be married, but was
really not In sexual condition. We treated
him in the same way. and in g. days his lost
vigOr was restored and instead OF fabby
nerves he had nerves OF steel, and shortly
afterwards was happily married. In thous.
snds OF cases we have tried our method. and
have failed In only nine or ten cases. and
these were beyond help. They had waited too
long or fritted away valuable time by trying
useless remedies, or so-cailed Free Cures"
or prescriptions until the entire nervous sys-
tenn was in utter collapse.
Our secret remedy we now put up in the
shape OF pills, called The old Dr.. Hallock
Electric Pills. so that they can b. easily car
ried IN the vest pocket. The pills are COM
posed OF the most expensive drugs, and are
infused with electricity in such way that

NeOdesha Will Vote Again.

The recent bond election at Neodesha,
at which an Indebtedness of $50, 900 was
voted for a municipal waterworks and
natural gas plant, has been declared lille
gal by Judge Stilwell. The basis for
this decision was failure to comply with
some of the details of the election law,
The fight was instituted by corporations
interested in preventing the plan from
being put in operation A petition for
another election has been called, and it
will likely be held at an early date.
There will be no lack of effort to COM
ply with every detail of the law in order
that opponents of the measure may have
no opportunity to continue the fight in
the courts. The victory for municipal
ownership at the recent election was a
decided one, the vote being about five to

Easy Escape for JOintists.

George Franklin, OF Jennings, Kas.,
was tried in the Federal court at To-
peka last week charged with selling
liquor without a government license.
After the State rested, his attorneys pre-
sented an internal revenue receipt show
ing that license for the entire month
during which the sale occurred was is
sued on the last day, which was fourteen
days after the offense was committed.
Judge Foster instructed the jury to re-
turn verdict of not guilty. He held
that the court could not prosecute citi-
zen for selling liquor without license
while the revenue collector would issue
authority to sell afterward and date it
back to cover the day on which the sale
occurred. UNLESS the revenue collector
changes his rules no further prosecu-
tions Of this sort will be attempted, Dis
trict Attorney Lambert says.
