esting OF the many that have come under
the notice of the physicians of the Abbo
Institute and in which the X-Ray has been
brought into use, is that of Mr.. Harry
White, driver for the Vale Royal Dairy,
and whose residence Is 512 Margaret street.
For several weeks Mr. White had suffered
terrible pains below the right ribs and
gradually declined in health until he fin
ally became helpless invalid. Several
physicians Were in attendance during this
time. and many were the causes assigned
Oy them for the condition of their patient,
and various remedies were applied, without
the least benefit resulting from thelr use.
The case was diagnosed as appendicitis
and other like ailments, and as,the patient
grew steadily worse he was advised 10 be
sent to the hospital for the purpose of I'M

means, if possible, the exact nature of the

Little or no hope for his recovery was held
OUT TO him and for that reason Mr.. White
delayed this treatment.

on the spot and generally accepted there
as true. Anyhow, his request for possess

not to implicate him In the matter.
AS to the unfortunate captive, he was

attitude was bold and defiant. He neither
denied the accusations laid against him

Hearing OF the wonderful powers OF the
X-Rays as applied by the Abbo Institute,
in determining such cases, Mr. White call
ed on Abbo, who seeing al once the gravity
OF the case placed him Immediately under
the powerful investigating light Of his x
Ray Machine MIR. White was placed with
his back TO the Crooke's tube, the tube be-
ing so adjusted that the ray which comes
from IT, shone directly upon the flesh from
a point beneath which the cause of trouble
and pain seemed TO come.
Then the physician place the Horoscope
upon the flesh and slowly moved 1t from

the fact that the organ from which Mr.
Whites sickness was due was the liver

and he Is receiving the congratulations OF
his friends on his happy recovery.
The X-Ray Is an all important factor in
many of the cures that are made at the
Abbo Institute. The reason IL simplicity
itself. yte unfaillng accuracy the physi-
clan can determine the exact condition
with which he has TO deal. He knows
positively what organ is affected and to
what sextent 1t Is diseased, and to that
organ alone he applies his treatment. Sup
pose a person has lacerated his hand In
certain spot. The treatment Is given that
spot. The thumb Is not treated for cut
across the palm Of the hand and so 1t Is
with the X-Ray. Instead of treating the
whole system and filling the patient with
numerous and widely varying drugs with
the hope that one at least may find it's way
10 the diseased SPOT. the physicians of the
Abbo Institute first apply to doubtful cases
the wonderful X-Ray, thereby ascertaining
the exact organ or spot that Is diseased and
giving them only the most potent reme-
dies and treatment which have influence on
those organs alone.

NEW BANKRUPTCY LAW.
senator Hoar Explains Advantages
of It's Provisions.


Washington. June Ex-senator Hoar'
chairman of the Senate committee on JUDI
ciarv. who has been urging the enactment
NJ a bankruptcy law for the past ntteeh
,,aara has given out a statement apropos
of the Senate's acceptance OF the CONFER
ence report. Among other things, ne says
..,rhe present bill Is a compromise. IL
will undoubtedly be found that in getting
a. through we have been obliged to leaVe
IN IL some crudities and imperfectlohs
which must be remedied by subsequent
legislation. 1t Is quite likely that the fees
of clerks, referees and trustees VIII DC
found TO be too low.
lone of the great objections was that
under the law the estates were eaten up
bv cost. and that the creditors got niue
or nothing. So we nave paIeu 10 'nS qu'0N
in that particular.
"Tnsfead Of the long list of crimes there
are only two for which bankrupt is to be
punished-one, that Of wilfully making
false answer in the bankruptcy proceed
ings; the other the embezzlement q the
property of the estate. The terms or uls-
charge. too. are exceedingly liberal; ana II
IA provided that farmers and wage-earners
will not be the subjects Of involuntary
bankruptcy, which extends in general 10
merchants, manufacturers, bankers, PRINT
ers and publishers, etc. There are some
possible cases of fraud which the law Will
not prevent, but the objection TO a stricter
one was so great that II was not thought
best to risk The success of this bill, which,
as II were, has been saved as by fire, by
standing out for a perfect rule to be APP
piled to cases which would not occur once
in a thousand times.
1.-THE bill will enable from 10000 10 200
O0O bankrupts TO get on their feet again. II
will enable manufacturers and merchants
10 get a fair division of their debtors prop
erty, and will prevent a great deal Of
fraud, ENLIGHTENMENT and wasteful dealing
