Y That Dr.. Rea is restoring
the health and curing thous-
ands+ Of the afflicted there IS
no doubt as hundreds of home
people will attest. Few ply
sicians in the country have
had better educational advall-I
tages than he and few have
more thoroughly improved
them. He has always been,
an ardent student as we'll as
ar original investigator, hay
ing. practiced bis profession,
in some of the principal hos
pitfalls throughout the United
States and Europe and it is
nor surprising that he has be-!
come.a great specialist. Soon
after commencing his practice.
lnLouisville, KY, some twelve
years ago, pr. Rea was led, to
believe that the important
treatment of treating both
acute and chronic disease was
one that was demanding un7
usual attention and the skill
of a physician who would de-
vote his whole time and study.
to that speciality. Impressed
with isidea he began a series
of original Investigations
which have resulted in many
important discoveries and
brought him an immense prac-
tice in chronic diseases. His
success in the line of special
practice has certainly been
remarkable and in the treat
ment of many other chronic
diseases unequalled. DR.. Rea
announced to the public in
Minnesota something over. a
year ago that he would make
aseries of northwestern visits,
stopping in the principal cities
in the state. Since that time
he has visited nearly every
city of Importance and in the
meantime has established a
permanent office in Mime
apolis where he has placed
some of the best physicians
in his staff at it's head. TO
prove his original assertions
he went to work and is now
treating thousands of people
in the state. Many are among
the wealthiestand most promi-
nent citizens, Almost every
one speaks of the immediate
relief that generally attends
his system of treatment. Be-
low we will publish a few of
the names of some of the
many he has cured:
Henry Nyhouse, Duluth,
MIMI, cured Of chronic
catarrh of the stomach, bad
blood and general indisposi-
ton. Had doctored of a good
many doctors and had taken
all kinds of treatment but no
relief.

When he had quoted down the lid of the
box containing the mice was carefully
opened and one of the little animals was
permitted to escape. 1t was a false start,
for the mouse, with exceeding swiftness,
ran into the straw at Jolly's feet and was
lost to sight. The elephant. who had care
fully watched all the preparations, had not
even caught a glimpse of the mouse as ne
darted from the basket to a place of refuge.
1t was not a fair ground on which TO de-
eide the wager.
Next a rat was turned loose, with exactly
the same result. 1t may have been that
Jolly saw him, but If he did he gave no
sign. He was not at all disturbed by what
was going on in front of him. The rat took
the same course as the mouse that had pre-
coded him and found refuge in the straw.
The next time the keeper called an as
sistant and two rodents were turned loose
at once-a mouse and a rat. They scurried
away from the baskets and were almost in
stantly lost to sight. The elephant made
never a move, and it looked as il Mr.. Bos-
took would surely win the bet. Again and
again the experiment was tried In the same
way-a rat and a mouse being turned loose
at the same moment. Some of them ran
around the room for q moment or so, but
the most of them took the shortest route TO
a place where they were out of danger. The
unusual actions of his keeper and those
around him. There were no real indications
of fright.
A half-hour was used up in this way with
out any definite results, and then 1t was de-
cided to try the toads.
Everyone watched intently as the little
reptile was put out of the basket. For a mo-
ment it stood still and then hoped toward
the elephant. jolly surely saw something
this time, but whether IL was a case of rage
or fright may never be known At all events
he was wondrously excited. When the toad
hoped toward him he reared up in the air
as far as he couid and threw himself
against the W of his cell. The strong
chain thai bound one Of his hind feet 10 a

trunk was thrown up in the air ard he

and the spectators on the platform con-
graduated themselves they were well out OF
the way of any possible harm.

was over and jolly resumed his customary
