FREE TO EVERY MAN.
The Method Of a Great Treat
ment for Weakness of Men.
Which Cured Him After Every
thing 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 suf-
fering day or night. Sleep Is almost i'm
possible and under such a strain men are
scarcely responsible 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 a dose Of poison and thus end all his
troubles. But providential inspiration
came to his aid In the shape OF a combina-
ton of medicines that not only completely
restored the general health, but enlarged
bis 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 address may have the method or
this wonderful treatment free. Now when
l say free, / mean absolutely without cost,
because | want every weakened man to get
| the benefit of my experience.
am not a philanthropist, nor do l pose
al an enthusiast, but there are THOUSANDS
of men suffering the mental tortures OF
weakened manhood who would be cured at
once could they but get such a remedy as
| the one that cured me. Do not try to study
out how | can afford to pay he few post
age stamps necessary to mail the iDforma-
| ton, but send for it, 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 Thorn
| as Slater, Boz b07, Kalamazoo. Mich, and
| the information will be mailed in a plain
| sealed envelope. 49,

AS TO CARS.

The Pullman Car company will hereafter
pay taxes in New Mexico, and its fare:
will be regulated by Territorial laws. Nc
passes would be accepted by the members
of the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Citizen.
Who ever heard of a common, ordi-
nary Territorial legislator being com
plimented with a Pullman palace Cal
passP And the proposed bill will
simply deprive any Now Mexico travel
er Of the comforts of a sleeping car
That is ALL,
Now, what are you going to do about
itP Suppose the company says: SAL
of our cars are through cars; we do
moi run cars for the accommodation Of
the New Mexico traveller"
Some thirty years ago, the New
Mexico legislature passed an act,
amending certain sections of the con-
stitution of the United States, that
did not exactly suit them; perhaps,
they may to-day enact o law, com
pelling the Pullman company to run
cars in New Mexico.

A MOST indignant howl having been
heard OF the reported action Of Hon.
+. A. Manzanares, of this city, in
causing it to be known that he favored
some appointments from the outside Of
the Territory, The OPTIC correspond.
ent at Santa Fe took pains to find ouI
just where our prominent citizen stood
in that regard. And. it Is due to his
diljgent inquiry that a personal letter
from Mr.. M%anzanares is given to oul
readers, this evening. And, in the
connection, it may be said that Mr..
Manzanares does not stand alone in
this matter. Better, a thousand times
over, that q judge from the outside be
appointed than that certain nameless
applicants in the Territory should sue
coed in reaching the goal OF their am
bition. Their selection for the bench
would indeed be a travesty upon JUS
tice and a sad commentary on the civil
lization OF the day ia New Mexico.
The time has gore by when petitions
will do the work of public sentiment,
which is all-powerful when it takes
hold.
