UNANIMOUSLY ENDORSED.
The Effort Of the Voice to Provide
Advertising Matter for
Sumner County.

In our last issue we announced that
the VOICE was preparing an Illus
trated Agricultural, Industrial AMI
Historical edition, devoted to set
ttiDg forth the resources Of Sum
ner county.
We are being congratulated on our
enterprise, and have promises Of
liberal support from all Of our public
spirited citizens. 10 directing the
attention TO this edition we would
ask the people to disassociate from
their minds any previous efforts in
this direction This is the first edi-
tlon Of this nature published by US,
and we intend that it will surpass
anything in its line.
1t will be printed on a book quail
ity Of paper, profuSely illustrated and
will contain reading matter, statistics
and historical facts that will be of
value to everyone. 1t will be a
paper that all can read not only with
profit to themselves, but can send to
their friends or file for future refer
eDce. Sumner is the banner county
Of Kansas. Her lands are capable of
great development and OIly await
the coming Of the hOmeseeker and
capitalist. Kansas stands today in
greater favor with the people of the
east than ever before, and they look
with longing eyes toward this pros
porous section. There will be a
greater tide Of immigration this year
into our state than ever before and
we desire that Sumner county shall
have its share.
Our Agricultural, Industrial and
Historical edition will deal fully with
the stock raising industries, the pro.
ductlveness Of our land, big crops,
etc. Thousands of copies will be
issued and distributed, first among
the residents Of the county and then
through the railroads to the towns in
Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, etc.
The VOICE from present indications,
feels confident that our citizens will
see the benefits to accrue TO them
through advertising our county and
its resources. We trust all will join
in our endeavor to make this edition
a credit to Sumner county. There is
time in the affairs Of men which,
taken at the flood, leads on TO fortune.
II is so with towns and counties.

The following article concerning
the cider vinegar treatment, was taken
from the AtchisOn Globe Of the date
Of February 20:
"Dr. Charley Howe wishes to an
nOunce that pure cider vinegar is a
certain specific as a propbylactic
against smallpox, chickenpox and
measles. In vaccinating a family OF
children recently that had been tax
ing vinegar for colds, it was discov
cred that the vaccination did not
take" 10 any case where the vinegar
was used. Further investigation has
proven that in every case where vine
gar was taken .as soon as exposed TO
these diseases, 1t prevented the dis
eases. Vinegar seems to be retained
In the blood longer than other acids.
and these germs cannot thrive and
mature IN an acid medium. The vim
egar can be taken in tablespoonful
doses, diluted with water, without
The slightest injurious effect, and DR..
Howe advises all those who have been
exposed to these diseases to try the
vinegar four times daily. Be sure il
Is pure cider vinegar only"

The Cider Vinegar Treatment

The following communication from

physician Of Atchison, was received
bytheVoICE Tuesday morning 10 reply
to a letter Of inquiry concerning the
cider vinegar preventative for small
pOx, which has been used so success
fully in AtchiSOn this winter. DR..
Howe claims that cider vinegar is
equally as effective in cases Of expos
ure to measles and chickenpOx:
Alchison, Kan, March I3, 1899.
EDITOR VOICE: Dear Sir: You
can recommend the vinegar treatment
boldly and with big headlines, for
have absolutely demonstrated with.
out question that pure cider vinegar
will prevent the contagion Of small
pOx, even though you were the nurse
in the case. In other words, anyone
can nurse case Of smallpox without
fear Of contracting the disease, If they
at the same time are using the vinegar
in table spoonful doses, with half cup
water, four times daily. This is a
medium dose. Less for small children
and little more for those continually
exposed, as in the case Of nurse.
This treatment has passed the point
Of theory and is now an assured fact;

several exposures to the disease. The
neighbOrh0od where it exists is ten
miles west of Arkansas City, near the
state line. DR.. Perkins, the physician
at the ChillOcco Indian reser-
vation, is excited over the prox-
unity OF the dread disease, and
telephOned DR.. Martin to know
il the proper quarantine regulations
were being enforced. DR.. Geeslin OF
Ashton, says the houses wnere the
disease exists have been placarded
and those who were exposed have
been placed under quarantine.
1t is learned from correspondence
from Arkansas City, however, that
there have been great many ex-
pOsures. VIM. Jordan, the father of
the girl who has smallpox, came home
from Texas about twenty five days
ago with the disease, not knowing
what allied him, and visited Arkansas
City. After he arrived at home erup.
tions appeared on his body and he
returned to Texas, still ignorant OF
the nature Of the disease. Later his
daughter broke out with the disease
and country doctor was called to
wait on her. The disease became
worse and DR.. Covert Of Arkansas
City, and DR.. Geeslin of Ashton, were
called. The other case broke out
about the time the Jordan girl was
taken sick and. like hers, was thought
to be measles. NeighborS visited both

John H. Jewett. ex-president of the So
ciety of California Pioneers and president
of the MarySvile Bank has for the sec
ond time within few months been the
victim of confidence men who have played
upon his well-known generosity.
Yesterday he called at police headquart-
ers and reported that he had been swim
died out of s65 by man representing him
self as a solicitor for the Southern Pa
cific Company to obtain subscriptions or
photographs of public men for a book
they were to publish entitled West of

The man, who gave his name as E. n.
house. 931 Pine street, yesterday morning
and represented that Claus Spreckels,
Colonel Hager and other prominent men
had subscribed for the book, which would
contain steel engTavingS of prominent
men only. Articles were to be written
by Mr.. Spreckels and other leading men
on subjects pertaining to California and
the book was TO be circulated free in
hotels. railroad depots and other places.
He asked me to agree to have steel
engraving inserted in the book. which
would cost S65, and believing in his rep
reservations l gave him the money and
my photograph.
al happened to meet Colonel Hager this
morning and mentioned the book to him.
He said the man had come to him, but he
had refused to have anything to do with
the book. l then made inquiry and dis
covered that the Representations made by
Baker were false. l am afraid the fell

he discovered that the man was a fraud.

the two first named will go into active

is going to Louisville, while Ziegler and
Gibson, with Ward, go to Cincinnati.
Downing writes that the San Jose track
has been covered with dirt at the home
stretch, to make better baseball dia-
mond out of it and the center space. This
can be removed at any time prior to a
meet, however. The men have been train
ing on the road in consequence, doing
from ten to thirty miles twice a day.
weather permitting.
The San Leandro electric road made an
announcement yesterday which will please
all wheelmen who have occasion to cross
the bay. Commencing at once, bicycles
will be carried free on all cars of the

equal to the fare of a person, which to
Haywards is % cents, so that the saving
to the riders who patronize the roads is
considerable. The change was brought
about through the efforts of President

again evidenced.
