dies-New Big Shows Toniaht-cars
Will Wait.

Brother, l will send you to Hot
Springs, Ark, pay all your railroad ex-
penses there and back, your hotel ex-
penses and your treatment at our In
stitute, 420 Central avenue. You can
ride in a Pullman palace car and eat
big steaks in the diner, all at my ex-
pense. Will you accept?"
Though overcome by this generous
offer. S. M. Jones, 210 South Second
street, Marshalltown, managed to look
his gratefulness to Phenomenal Kraus
and finally nodded his head in assent.
Then the great crowd cheered wildly.
Such was the climax of an evening
of marvels last night at the big free
show at Leland park, where one Of the
largest crowds that has ever gathered
In. Marshalltown, listened to the elo-
quence Of the multi millionaire head g
the Hot Springs Doctors. But 1t was
not prepared for the spontaneous offer
made by Phenomenal Kraus.
Il am sending this man to Hot
Springs because his ailment is the re-
suit of an accident and we cannot cure
him at the institute In the Masonic
block, lit West Main street." said
Phenomenal kraus, in explanation of
his marvellous act.
Mr. Jones is not the first man who
has been the subject Of the bounty of
Phenomenal Kraus John Ryan, 632
Jefferson avenue Clinton, Ia, is now
at Hot Springs, living and being cured
at the expense Of Phenomenal Kraus.
There are perhaps a hundred others
who have been treated likewise.
Now 6S years old, Mr.. Jones can
hardly walk on account OF an accident
which occurred when he was IA years
old. He was skating and fell on the
ice, iniuring his right leg. Both Of his
legs are in bad shape from having used
the left leg too freely. He has used a
crutch and cane in order to get around.
He was formerly employed by the
Northwestern road.
Some doctors diagnosed his trouble
as rheumatism and others as tubercu-
losis Of the hips. Some called 1t loco
motor ataxia, but Phenomenal Kraus
told him just what caused his trouble
without Mr.. Jones saying q word.
Rockefeller may found colleges and
Carnegie may build libraries, but give
me Phenomenal Kraus, who looks out
for the real needs Of suffering human
ity," is the verdict Of the people of
Marshalltown who saw the humanita-
rian act last night.
The stage was crowded last even
ing with suffering humanity. Phenom-
email Kraus diagnosed many of the
cases and others were forced to wait
until tonight, as the rain interfered
with the show, though a large num-
Der OF the people waited until the per-
Torrance was over. All Of the cases
were diagnosed without the patient
saying q word In regard to his or her
ailment.
C. w. Barnhill, 4OS South Second
street, has been para1yzed in his left
arm for fifteen years. The paralysis
was caused by the mercury in medi-
cine given him when he was suffering
with quinsy. He was unable to lift
lead pencil or feather with his hand.
A man offered him q gold watch and
chain II he would pick 1t up with his
left hand, but he could not do 1t.
After one treatment with the Hot
Springs remedies, Mr. Barnhill was
able to lift heavy watch and chain
and last night did 1t on the stage.
The Great Anselme at Eighth ave-
nue. also had large audience. He made
O most eloquent address and diagnosed
a number Of cases. Ejnar Carlson,
300 North Fourth avenue, was treated
for deafness. After one application he
was able to hear a whisper. In order
to satisfy the skeptical, the policeman
on the grounds made the test and testi-
fed to the marvellous result of the APP
plication Of the Hot Springs remedies.
Teeth are extracted free and without
pain, by the Great Anselme.
This evening there will be an entire
change of program at both shows. The
Diamond Cluster band will give an en-
tirely new program of concert music.
The concert begins at 1880 and the
performance at 8 O'clock The street
cars will wait until after the show and
plenty Of accommodations for all will
he proyided. dit
