For 20 years DR.. Hathaway has confined his
practice almost exclusively to diseases of mon,
and during that time he has restored more men
to health, vigor, usefulness and happiness than
any ten other doctors in the country combined.
Dr.. Hathaway treats and cures by a method
entirely his own, discovered and perfected by
himself and used exclusively by him, Loss of
Vitality, Varicocele, Structure Blood Poisoning
in its different stages, rheumatism. Weak Back,
all manner of urinary complaints. Ulcers, Sores
and Skin Diseases, BTights Disease and allforms
of Kidney Troubles. His treatment for under
toned men restores lost vitality and makes the
patient a strong, well, vigorous man.
DR.. HathaWay'S success in the treatment OF
Varicocele and Structure without the aid OF knife
or cautery is phenomenal. The patient is treat
ed by this method at his own home without pain
or loss of time from business. This is positively
the only treatment which cures without an Opef-
| alton. DR.. Hathaway calls the particular atten-
! ton of sufferers from Varicocele and Structure to
| pages q, %, %, 80 and 81 OF his new book.
Every case taken by DR.. Hathaway is specially
treated according to its nature, all under his gen
| eral ersonalsupervision and all remedies used by
| him are prepared from thepureStand beStdrugS in
| his own laboratories under his personal oversight.
| DR.. Hathaway makes no charge for cOnSulta.
ton OF advice, either at his office or by mail, and
| when a case is taken the one low fee covers all
cost of medicines and professional services.
Dr.. Hathaway always prefers, when it is posi-
bic, to have his patients call on him for at least
| one interview, but this is not essential, as he has
cured scores of thousands of patients IN all sec
tons of the world whom he has never seen. His
| System of Home Treatment is SO perfected thai
as though the patient called daily at his Office.

THE TAX ON ALCOHOL.

In view of the fact that large
quantities of alcohol are used in
the arts, such as in the manufact.
r of varnishes, patent med"
cines. hats and other industries,
Congress, in 1894, enacted a law
which provided that such manu-
facturers, upon compliance with
the proper regulations, should
receive a rebate of the internal
revenue tax paid on the alcohol
by them,
The Secretary of the Treasury
failed to prescribe any regula-
tiuns for the relief of the manus
facturers, and they went into
court to secure relief. II view
of the fact that the tax on alco-
hol is $1.1O per gallon, and that
many manufacturers use large
quantities of it in their process
es, it adds greatly to the cost of
their products and increases the
burden upon the people who con-
sumo their manufactures.
A test case, which went to the
Supreme Court, was brought.
It was the case of Dunlap & Co.,
hat manufacturers, of New York,
who used 1000 gallons of alco-
ho1 in nine months in their bust
ness. The Supreme Court in
1899 handed down a decision,
signed by five OF the nine menu
bers, Justices Brown, White,
Peckham and McKenna dissent
ing, declaring that the Secretary
of the Treasury was not bound
to provide regulations under
which the tax on alcohol could
be refunded to the manufacturers
but that it was left to his discre-
ton whether or not it was proper
that the manufacturers should
have the relief they claim.
When the Spanish war came on
and the war tax was imposed it
fell particularly heavy upon the
makers OF proprietary medicines,
who r now required to pay not
only a special stamp tax on their
products, but must also gay g
heavy tax on the alcohol they use,
This is a double burden, unjust ir
character and not intended by
Congress, when it passed the act
of 1894, hence Representative
Russell, of Connecticut, has intro
duced the following bill in thu
House:
Be it enacted by the Senate anc
and House Of Representatives o:
the United States of America, il
Congress assembled, That thu
failure of the Secretary of th'
- Treasury to prescribe regulation
for the use of alcohol in the art
and in the medicinal and othel
like compounds, a required by
Section 81 of the act of Angus
%, 1894, shall not operate as
defence on the part of the United
States to 9ny suit of a manufac
turer under said act brought il
any court of the United States
and q new trial may be grantee
hereunder in any such suit here
tofore dismissed.
The purpose Of the bill is to re
lieve the manufacturers of one o
the two big burdens imposed upo
them by permitting them to col
lect their rebate claims, The de
cision of the Supreme Court del
egates to the Secretary of th
Treasury the extraordinary powe
to say who shall be taxed and VIII
shall go free, and it is evident ths
Congress never intended that thi
should be the case. The result be
been injurious to a large class {
manufacturers, and Congress
now asked to give them relief, an
as a matter of equity it should d
1t.
