WILL SEND $3.50 R E
To Each Of Readers-Franklin Miles,
N. D, IL. B, the Celebrated Chicago
Specialist win Send $3.50 Worth Of
His New Special Treatment Free.

When an experienced physician offers 10 give
away $4,000 worth Of new treatment for dis
eases Of the heart, nerves, stomach or dropgyl
II Is conclusive evidence that he has great faith
In II. And when hundreds Of prominent men
and women freely testify 10 his unusual SKIN and
the superiority Of his new special treatment his
rberaliy is certainly worthy OF serious con-
sideraton.
That Dr.. Miles is one Of the worlds most suo-
eessful physicians In treating these diseases, Is
proven by hundreds OF testimonials. One pa
tent cured after failure Of eleven Grand Rapids
physicians, two after having been given up BY
seven Chicago physicians, another after nine OF
the leading doctors IN New York City, Phfadel-
phia and Chicago failed. Thousands Of tssti-
monials sent upon request
Tbe eminent Rev. W.. Bel, d. D., Of Dayton,
Ohio, General Secretary Of Foreign Missions,
writes editoriaIy IN the State Sunday sohool
Union; "we desire TO state that from personal
acquaintance We know DR.. Mles TO be Q most
skflful specialist, a mar who has spared neither
labor nor money TO keep himself abreast OF the
great Advancement Of medical science" The
late Prof. J. s. Jewell, M. D., editor OF Journal
Of Mental and Nervous Diseases, Chicago, said:
"By all means publish your surprising results"
Rev. J. W.. stokesbury, OF Fairport, Mo-, had
head, heart, stomach troubles and nervous pros
tration. Three physicians failed to help him.
He writes: 81 regarded myself cured" Mr.. @.
Beck, OF Webb City, Mo-, wrote q friend: "Dr.
Miles treated me for mind trouble, unnatural
fears and great nervousness. He cured me Q
years ago" Mr.. George woodhouse reports;
my son was 50 bad he was helpless. Other
physicians could not help him, bat DR.. Miles
brought him out all right" J. D. Howe, Brook
field, NO., says; "Dr. Miles is the only physi-
clan who ever helped me-"
This new system Of special treatment Is thor
oughly scientific and immensely superior to the
ordinary methods.
As al afflicted readers may have $50 worth Of
treatment especially prepared for their case,
free, with fun directions, We would advise them
to send for 1t at once. Address; The Dr.. Miles

McdInitty Comes Home.

Joe McGinity. the wonderful
pitcher of the Brooklyn League
team arrived here today and wen
to Krebs to visit his family and il
receiving much attention from his
old territory friends and The base
ball fans.
Joe looks to be in fine condition
and has been doing some such
wonderful work for his team this
season that he is sregarded as the
star pitcher of the big league. A
recent copy of the New York
World devotes a half page to the
story of the rise of the Indian Ter
ritory man in the base ball world
and gives glowing account of his
phenomenal success on the plate
having lost but two games this sea-
son. One to the New York Giants
and another to the st Louis Or
phans. The World publishes four
pictures of him showing him in
four different positions in the box,
while in the act of pitching. The
article states that Manager Hanlon
of the Brooklyns is delighted with
his work and would not part with
him under any circumstances.
The curves and twists McGinity
acqired in the early days playing
with the miners and Indians are
an everlasting study and puzzle to
the fasteners and they cannot
get on to them little bit.
McGinnity is a broth.in-law of J.
G. Redpath, Of krebs, apd will
