DR.. S. w. Stern, Dear Sir: 1t is through
duty which feel owe you, and e>pec-
tally to all who suffer from tnat most
dreaded disease, cataract of the tye, that
write you this letter. For eleven years
had the use of only one eye, due to
cataract on my left eye, and failing to
be relieved in any way from my misf'r-
tune after being treated by most all of
the leading eye specialists of this coun-
try, | had almost given up hope of ever
regaining my lost sight in the afflicted
eye, until l read of the wonderful cures
your renowned Shapiro actinic lenses
had made in Germany where they We're
first introduced just after being invented
by yourself and Professor B. Shapiro,
the great German scientist. l wrote to
Germany to you in March, 1904, asking
to have you send me a pair of your
lenses, and in reply you stated you
would return to America in the following
April and would then call upon me in
Portland, Ore, at when time you
would be pleased to let me try a pair.
Miraculous as it may seem, it was just
two months and five days after I first
began the use of Shapiro's Actinic lenses
when l recovered my eyesight, and can
now see as plainly as l ever could.
am so awfully happy at regaining my
lost sight, that / can scarcely control
my feelings of gratitude toward you.
May God grant you long life is the wish

TYPHOID CAN BE PREVENTED.

The annual report Of the state board
of health calls needed attention to the
appalling loss Of life from typhoid fe-
vera loss which might be largely pre-
vented If the public would but follow
the safeguards discovered by science. In
this connection the report says:
Typhoid fever is the cause of more
sickness and death in this state than
any other communicable disease, ex-
cepting tuberculosis. For a number of
years past typhoid fever has been re-
sponsible for about e.twentieth of
all deaths occurring in this state, it be.
ing very widespread, appearing in
practically every county in the state,
and yet, though classed as one of the
preventable diseases, very little has
been done to prevent it,"
Infected water and milk cause much
the greater part of typhoid cases, and
milk and water become infected through
carelessness in the sickroom. Disease
germs from the patient, instead of being
carefully destroyed by fire, are thrown
upon the ground, to be swept into wells
and streams and thus contaminate the
water supply of thousands. Uncleanly
dairies and stables afford a breeding
place for the deadly germs, and in that
way the milk supply is often contami-
mated.
There is field here for a great work
of reform. The public needs to be
aroused to vivid knowledge of the
dangers that confront it and to an in
telligent conception of the means of pre-
vention. The law needs amendment so
that stricter watch may be kept over
infected premises, and even physicians
need an awakening to the duties of their
profession.
There is too much apathy all along
the line.-Spokesman Review.

also answer some of the charges

defendant anything to say why

nonnced upon him ??
A hush settled over the room as
the Senator arose. A look at his
familiar face made it plain that
he was not going to retract one
word. Slowly he advanced, laid
his left hand on the chancel rail,
his right hand resting in his coat
pocket his body turned one fourth
sideways from the court, his face
directly facing the chief justice
whom he never took his eyes off
during his entire address, in
slow, clear and steady manner, he
said:

great courts of the country on the
