All Praise Work of the Man Who
Heals Without Drugs.
SOME VERY RE-
nARKABLE CURES
Every Patient Talked With Tesfifies
to the Wonderful Healing Pow
er of Prof j. Weller Long.

The following dispatch to the
Honey Grove, TEX Signal regard
ing this man of marvellous healing
power, who Is at the Rogers hotel at
Waxahachie Monday, is published In
this issue of the Enterprise, because
the results obtained from his treat
ment at Bonham is illustrative of his
success throughout northern Texas:
Bonham, Texas, July 19.-That is
a well satisfied crowd that gathers
at the Hotel Alexander each week to
regain lost health, under the magic
power of Prof. J. Weller Long, the
healer. One cannot appreciate the
greatness of his work without talk
ing with his patients. One must see
the CLEAN of happiness that is aglow
on every countenance and hear the
thrill of joy that makes melody In
every voice as the stories of miracu-
lous recovery are told.
Think you, dear reader, that men
and women would face the hardships
of Journeys ranging from eight to
twenty-five miles in mud, rain, storm
and heat to take treatment from
which they were deriving no benefit?
No vain delusion would invoke such
earnestness as is manifested by these
people. They come because they are
getting results; because they have
found way that leads to new life
and health without danger of the
mortal craft they travel in being
wrecked in the pitfalls of drug ex~
Fermentation. We have heard of
great cures being effected by the lay
ing on of the hands, but the fact re-
manned for us to see until we talked
with Prof Longs patients at the Alex
ander Wednesday. Here is a part of
the evidence of his success: The same
question, ARE you improving under
Prof. Longs treatment" was asked
each patient.

not coughed nearly so much. / tell

Third Parties In War Quarrels.

No country has had, at least In
modern times, such grievOus cause as
has Japan to look with disfavor upon
third parties mixing In to arrange
terms of peace between belligerents.
The most important feature of the
treaty between Japan and China ten
years ago was the cession in perpe-
tuity and full sovereignty by China to
Japan of the Liautong peninsula and
the whole southern coast of Manchu-
ria from the mouth of the Yalu on the
east to the Lao river at Yingkow on
the west.
In the roundup by the powers-Ger-
many, France and Russia-the victori-
GUS Japs were compelled to cede back
every inch of this territory which they
had honorably won by conquest. Rus
sia immediately appropriated the most
valuable part of the territory by means
Of lease from China of Port Arthur
and IN adjoining section of the Liau-
tong peninsula. Russia was seated In
Port Arthur by the action of the pow
ers and once there she defled the pow
ers and pushed japan into the war.
In view of what occurred In 1898, re-
luctance on the part of Japan to trust
to outside diplomacy would be but
natural.
