FREE TO EVERY MAN.
THE METHOD OF A GREAT TREAT
MENT
Which Cured Him After Everything
Else Failed.

Painful diseases are bad enough, but
when a man is slowly wasting away
with nervous weakness, the mental
fOrebOdings are ten times worse than
the most severe pain. There is no let
up to the mental suffering day or night
Sleep is almost impossible and under
such a strain men are scarcely respon-
sible for what they do. For years the
writer rolled and tossed on the troubled
sea of sexual weakness until it was a.
question whether he had not better
take dose Of poison and thus end all
his troubles. But providential inspira-
ton came to his aid in the shape of q
combination of medicines that not only
completely restored the general health
but enlarged his weak, emaciated parts
to natural size and vigor, and he now
declares that any man who will take
the trouble to send his name and adj
dress may have the method of this
wonderful treatment free. Now when
I say free I mean absolutely without
cost, because l want every weakened
man to get the benefit Of my expert
ence.
l am not a philanthropiSt, nor do 7
pose as an enthusiast, but there are
thousands of men suffering the mental
tortures Of weakened manhood who
would be cured at once could thew but
get such a remedy as the one that
cured me. Do not try to study out how
I can afford to pay the few postage
stamps necessary to mail the informa-
ton, but send for 1t, and learn that
there are a few things on earth that
although they cost nothing to get they
are worth a fortune to some men and
mean a lifetime of happiness to most
of us. Write to Thomas Slater, Box
1885, Kalamazoo Mich, and the in
formation will be mailed in a plain
sealed envelope.

LII AT WASHINGTON.
The DepOsed Queen May Call on the

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S.4Liiiuoka,.
ianl, the Hawaiian ex-queen,. arrived
mere rather Unexpectedly this morning
Her intention to visit Washington at
this time had not been anticipated. and
her entry was as simple as ary ones
could be. Accompanied by Miss Kia
Nahaolelena and Joseph Helelulie nf
Honolulu, and j. N. Palmer. of Bos-
ton, the queen was driven to the Hotal
Shoreham. Rather fatigued bv her
trip, she retired and refused herself
10 all callers. Concerning her visit
Mr.. Palmer said:
The queen is travelling in her "a
paclty as a private lady, and 7 have no
doubt that she will follow the same
rule here that she did in Boston in de-
Ginning any official attentions"
How long does she expect to stav
in Washington
L have not the slightest idea. The
queen enjoys travel immensely and Is
visiting Washington precisely as any
private person might do
VIII she be given an audience with
the president while she is here?'
'AS to that / really cannot say. She
has not said word on the subject
and do not even know that she would
desire an audience"
rs she on her way back to Homo
lulu?"
II cannot say anything on that point.
either If she has any plans at ali
for the future, she has not taken me
into her confidence. T do not know
how long she will be in Washington.
where she will go when she leaves or
whether shall go with her."
