WHAT TO READ.
Some Prominent Chicagoans
 Express Opinions.

In these enlightened times every person who pretends to keep in touch with the progress of the world must read first-class daily metropolitan newspaper. They who would select the best should be guided by the opin- ions of prominent newspaper-men who know. Read the following:
 "There Is no question as to the position occupied by The Chicago Tribune. It's en- terprise has been too often demonstrated. AS local and American news,gathering in- stitution 1t has no superior and few equals. In the matter of foreign cables. no other paper west of New York can be compared to 1t. These are the things. of course. that go to make complete and great news paper. CARTER H. HARRISON" Now Mayor of Chicago. formerly publisher Chicago Times.
 The Chicago Tribune is the best news paper in the world. I consider Its make up and facilities for gathering news unequaled. although I do not agree with 1t politically.

The Mystery of Warts. IS


When youngster of 10 years, was
visited by plague of warts. From my
earliest recollection I had had on my
middle finger an old daddy wart, but at
the age stated this had multiplied to 40
Or more, one being on my Zip and one
on my chin. I was considerably worried
over my growing family of excrescences.
and one day a woodchopper in my ia
theirs employ, who acted queerly, never
wearing hat, for instance, said that
he could take the warts away with him.
was quite willing to have him try,
and he took me off to quiet spot under
willow tree, from which he cut a
number Of small branches, and these he
cut again into little bits of an inch In
length, making a notch in each one,
and this notch he set down over each
wart, having at last a collection of 40
or more of these little notched sticks
These he put into his pocket, saying
that the warts would go away.
could never say just when the
prophecy was fulfilled, but within six
weeks there wasn't wart on my face
or hands, and there has not been one
since that time. What l want to know
| now, as l aid then-and the conjurer
| would not tell me-is what did it. I
have spoken to many doctors about it.
but they merely laugh, as though l was
giving them "pipe talk" and yet the
warts went away, and all the medicine
I had ever tried on them had no effect
