Claims Backed by Results

DIR. Walker not only claims to cure
Chronic Diseases but makes good his
claims by actual results, as many in Shi-
awassee county can testify. Then why
continue to live in constant misery, for
consultation is free and his rates for
treatment are within the reach of all.
Chronic Diseases Require SPECIAL
Treatment for their Cure.
Remember Dr. Walker has given
MANY wears to the special study and
treatment of Chronic Diseases. His
success is well known. The Doctor,
therefore, requests every Man, Woman
and child who has been unable to find
cure to call at his Office at the National
Hotel, Owosso, on day of visit and get a
thorough examination free Of charge.
Waste no time in doubling or wonder
ing as to whether you can be cured or
not, when your future happiness and
success in life largely depends upon the
condition of your health, it's wise to con-
suit a skillful Specialist without delay,
one whose large experience enables him
to cure when ordinary methods fail.
Astonishing cures in long standing
cases are now being made every day,

HIS MIDDLE NAME Ia FoN.
Some unpublished History" About
Vice President WinchelI.

Denver, Colo, Jan. 19-Dr. David H.
Dougan, president of the National
Bank of Commerce, gave a luncheon
yesterday at which the principal guest
was Benjamin La Fon Winchell. third
vice president of the Rock Island sys-
tenn and first vice president of the
Frisco system, which is subsidiary
corporation of the Rock Island.
Representatives of nearly all the rail-
roads having Offices in Denver were
present. Mr. Winchell. because of the
liberal salary he enjoys and because of
his recent aerial flight from one good
job to another was the object of much
congratulation and not a little curl
ositx.
Much speculation was INDUCED in
concerning what his permanent status
with the Rock Island will be when the
new staff of the corporation gets down
to active work. At present Mr.. Win
cheH is the executive head of the sys-
tenn, and the highest active official west
of New York.
Since his promotion number of mis-
taken assertions concerning him have
been published His age and salary
have been the subjects of considerable
speculation.
Benjamin La Fon Winchell will be As
years old next July. The name la
Fon'' is from his mothers family. He
was born at Palmyra, Mo-, but received
his education at the public schools of
Hannibal. When he was % years old
he married MISS Jeannelle Helm. 6FlOT
to that time he was working in the
Burlington shops at Hannibal. but was
soon transferred to the auditors office.
He then became chief clerk of the
Atchison & Nebraska railroad.
Shortly after his marriage he became
assistant general passenger agent of
the Kansas City, Fort Scott & Mem
phis railroad at Kansas City. In 1895
he came to Denver where he was gen
eral passenger agent of the Denver &
Gulf In 1893 he went to the Frisco. but
returned to the Colorado & Southern
as vice president and traffic manager in
1899. Then in 1890 he went to the Kan
sas City, Fort Scott & Memphis as
president.
September, 1901, he was made vice
president and general manager of the
Frisco system, which included the Kan
sas City Fort Scott & Memphis. His
Rock Island appointment is fresh in the
mind of everyone.
High officials of the Rock Island, in
Guiding Mr.. Winchell, are probably the
only persons who know just what sal
airy he is receiving. but his comDensa-
ton is generally believed to be from
$4,000 to SS5, 900 a year. The sum OF
$4,000 was mentioned when he got the
appointment. but it has been admitted
! since that this was exaggerated
Friends OF all railroad officials whose
earnings will admit of it are fond OF
comparing it to that of the president
but there are only a few railroad men
in the country drawing as much as the
chief executive.
Mr.. Winchell spent the day yester-
day in calling on friends, but he found
time to examine plats of the Rock Is
lands real estate holdings here.
I'VE shall be compelled to make q
number of improvements in Denver
was all he would vouchSafe concerning
/ the Rock Islands plans in this city.
