THE THOUSANDS we have cured
during our eight years in Davenport
must prove to you that our cures are
permanent.
There are few doctors that have the
ability to cure chronic diseases. You
must remember that over 60 self
called specialists have located during
the past few years in the tri-cities and
have made eXtravagant claims to cure
chronic diseases, and they all have
left behind them broken promises and
failures. Therefore, if YOU want to
insure yourself against loss of money
and obtain health, consult DIR. Walsh.
for he has been long tried and has
proven success when others have
failed. Remember it pays to consult
the best first.
Only durable diseases taken. If you
cannot call write. Hundreds cured

HAS SERVED SEVEN YEARS
Vice Chancellor Reed Will Pro-
badly Be Reappointed at
Close of Term.

Vice Chancellor Alfred Reed will COM
pete his first term of seven years as a
memler Of the New Jersey Court OF
Chancery, June next. Except Vice Chsn-
cellor Emery, who was recently reappoint-
ed, he is the only member Of the court
whose term ends during the present year.
That Vice Chancellor Reed, who is also
vice ordinary of the Prero2ative Court,
will be reappointed by Chancellor Magic
is regarded as assured, although, of
course. the matter has not been uncer
discussion, and will not be.
Vice Chancellor Reed besides being re-
garded as one of the most eminent jurists
in the State, is an indefatigable worker.
and has faculty for accomplishing the
work before him with remarkable dis
patch. Those who have followed closely
the affairs ofsthe Court of Chancery have
often noted the promptness with which
his decisions are rendered and all other
duties falling 10 hie lot attended to- 1t
is extremely seldom that any case heard
by him is not decided at an early dats-
In the few exceptions it has Always
been because Of some unusual compiica-
tons involving exhaustive research in
reaching conclusion or for some other
equally god reason.
Next year the terms Of Vice Chanceliors
Pitney and Grey will expire.
After this there will be no vacancies
in the ranks of the Vice Chanceiors uEtii
1908, when the term OF Vice .sh ancehor
Stevenson expires. The present term 0f
Vice Chancellor Emery ends in 1909. and
that of the Chancellor, January II, 1908.
