siders and acts on all pension cases, but
as matter OF fact ii is physically i'm
possible for one person TO do personally
all that is done in the name Of the Com
missioner of Pensions. The various Di-
visions Of the Pension Bureau have prac-
tically the entire consideration Of all pen

fore the Board Of Review, acting on behalf
of the Commissioner of Pensions, and
their action is, i'm the eyes Of the law, the
action Of the Commissioner Of Pensions.

People don't need bathrooms, as this Cabi-
net may be used in any room. Thus bath
tubs have been discarded since the invention
of this Cabinet, rs it gives far better bath
for all cleansing purposes than soap and water.
For the sickroom its advantages are at once
apparent. The Cabinet is amply large enough
for any person. There have been
So-Called Cabinets
On the market, but they were unsatisfactory,
for they had no door, no supporting frame,
but were simply cheap affair to pull on or
off over the head, like a skirt or barrel, sub
jecting the body to sudden and dangerous
changes of temperature, or made with bulky
wooden frame, which the heat and steam
within the cabinet warped, cracked and caused
to fall apart and soon become worthless.
The Quaker Cabinet made by the Cincin-
natl firm. is the only practical article of its
kind, and will last Tor years. IL seems to
satisfy and delight every user, and the
Makers Guarantee Results.
They assert positively, and their statements
are backed by vast amount of testimony
from persons of influence, that their Cabinet
will cure nervous troubles and debility. clear
the skin, purify the blood, cure rheumatism.
They offer $50 reward for case that cannot
be relieved). Cures women's troubles, la
grippe, sleepleSsness, obesity, neuralgia, head
ache, govt, sclatica, piles, dropsy, blood and
skin disease liver and kidney troubles. twill

known, and all those enjoying health should
use it at least once or twice q week; but its
great value lies in its marvellous power to

Godsend TO all humanity.

rather parsimOni0uS. For instance, it pays
officers too much; they got their pay as
they went along. Retiring them on half

Washington. D.. G.. The following

news from the Capital OF the United States
may lie OF interest to many of our readers.
We therefore call particular attention to it.
Mr. John Sellner, of 1927 Wiltberger ST., is
our authority for the following: ITO my
delight / can report to you that Mrs. Foster,
one of our neighbors called upon us last
evening, and told MS full of gratitude that her
daughter. who had been a subject of epilepsy
for over 20 years. had been completely cured
by the use of Dr. Peters Blood Vitalizer
We had previously advised the use of this
remedy, but they claimed that the ailment
was of too long standing to even permit of
relief, far less cure. Nevertheless we
finally pursuaded them to use the remedy,
insisting that trial could do no possible
harm, and now they have seen the results"
DR.. Peters Blood Vitalizer has puzzled many
by its peculiar efficacy in blood and consti-
tutional disorders. 1t is a puzzle to doctors
and laity alike; although attempts have been
made time and again at explaining its pecu-
liar power, it is still unsolvcd. 1t is not sold
to the drug trade, but to the people direct
through local agents by the proprietor, DR..

medicated vapor baths at home for 3 cents
each, with no possibility of taking cold or in
any way weakening the system.
A well-known physician of Topeka. Kan
sas, f. l.. Eaton, M. d., gave up his practice
to sell these bath Cabinets, feeling that they
were all his patients needed to get well and
keep well, as they cured the most obstinate
diseases often when his medicine failed and
we understand he has already sold over 600.
Another physician OF Chicago Dr. John C..
Wright, followed DR.. Eaton's example,
moved West and devotes his entire time to
selling these Cabinets. Many others are do.
ing likewise.
Hundreds of remarkable letters have been
written the inventor from those who hare
used the Cabinet, two of,which, referring tc

these dread maladies. G. ~ Lafferty, Gov

Mrs. S. S. Noteman, Hood River, Ore, writes
that her neighbor used the Bath Cabinet for
severe case of In grippe and cured herself
entirely in two days. Another neighbor

would probably depend upon the severity
of the chronic bowel trouble whether the
Pension Bureau would accept il as the
probable cause of the fatal lung disease.
If there was any other possible cause for
the fatal disease, the Pension Bureau
would be very apt to regard IL as the real
cause rather than that proven to be due to
the service.
A. W, Gallon. O.-The Board of Pen
sion Appeals of the Interior Department is
about one wear in arrears with its work.
1t is n so much where an attorney re-
sides as evident experience and ia
miliarts y it'll the pension laws and PEN
sion practice that claimant should con-
slider in selecting an attorney. 1t stands
to reason, however, that an attorney To-
Gated at the place where his clients
claim is being considered and determined
can often serve their mutual interests to
greater advantage than If located at a
distance. The disposition of the Pension
Department is not so liberal that you can
afford to neglect to strengthen your case
in every possible way before taking an
appeal. In determining the rate of pen
sion under the general law, the Pen ,9n
Bureau takes into consideration only
those disabilities accepted as shown to be
due To the service and line of duty. If
increase is granted on disabilities covered
by the pension certificate, il would COM
mence from the medical examination
which is held to show title to a higher
rate on the pensioned disabilities.
S. M. d., Richford, Wit is required
that all the military service of a soldier be
stated, whether in his own claim or the
claim of his heirs, and il is required to be
shown that the stated military service is
a complete statement but it is usually
easy to satisfy this requirement. The
testimony of friends and relatives, prefer
ably the former, will be considered, show
ing that the soldier was not known to
have had any other service, and that If
he had, they would have been likely to
know of il etc.
w. 7. K, Fairplay, Mo.-Evidently your
80 acres homestead was taken up since
