Everyone knows this is the age of spe-
ciaIt1eS. This is especially true in the
Art of Medicine. There are certain dis
eases which cannot be treated success
fully by the regular practicing physician
on account of the time, equipment, and
attention necessary to carry out the
cure to successful issue.
To everyone is familiar some one
among their friends acquaintance
who has tried to get rid of some annoy
ing ailment which has fixed itself and
apparently is incurabie.
There are no incurable diseases. 1t is
a fact that there are thousands who are
being treated for symptoms, while the
real cause is overlooked. This means
that q correct diagnosis has not been
made. All are liable TO contamination
from contagious diseases. This is par
ticulafly true in crowded cities.
To be born right is a great inheri.
tance-nany= arc the innocent victims of
the law of heredfty. Consumption.
Scrofuia. or Blood Poison, rheumatism.
Gout of the Joints. Mucous Membranes.
Skin Diseases, Nervous and Brain Dis
eases are some of these.
The barber shop, street cars, crowded
theaters, dusty streets. and the water
we drink are some of the methods OF
direct infection.

The firm OF Pearl & Co. will look to
ehe bank to make good the missing
securities. The above facts were dis.
closed after an announcement made
5y the Pinkerton Detective Agency,
Which sent out list of the missing
securities. with an announcement that
zlie transfer had been stopped.
The greatest reticence about the
robbery is being maintained. AT the
Office OF Pearl & Co. E. F. slaxback,
OF the firm, made this statement:
There has been some trouble about
certain securities. Pearl & Co. can't
lose anything at all by this trouble.
We have got nothing whatever to do
with 1t. The bank which is involved
particularly requests that its name be
nnts mentioned at the present time.
The check was presented to the bank
in payment for a loan, and the bank
landed the collateral over to the
stranger who presented the check.
The check was forgery, as also was
the certificate it bore. The bank is
responsible to Pearl & Co for the col
lateral. The bank in question is very
rich. and If there is any loss the bank
win be amply able to meet it from its
