SWEARING OFF.
HAVE TRIED THAT PLAN TOO
OFTEN.
THERE Is NOTHING IN IT
But | Am Swearing to Convince the
SkeptleaI That the Worst Drunk
ard on Earth Can Be Cured
of the Drink Habit.
THERE is NOTHING IN It

We have from time to time published
testimonials from persons who claimed
to have been relieved from all desire or
necessity for alcoholic stimulants and
narcotic drugs. These testimonials were
signed by persons who had been greatly
benefited. Today we publish the sworn
statement of Mr.. NJ. A. Casper of Staun-
ton, ILL.,. who was cured of alcoholism by
the James treatment, which he recon-
mends to the public In the highest terms.
His Oath.
II hereby solemnly swear that on No
vember l placed myself under the James
treatment for drunkenness. 1 had drunk
whisky Is or 20 years, was in bad physi-
cal condition and realized that l needed
u scientific, intelligent treatment to be
restored to my former health and will
bower.
My name is M. A. Casper; L reside
ht Staunton, ILL.,, am 80 years of age and
a carpenter by trade. In exactly three
weeks after my arrival l returned nome
cured man, and have absolutely no de-
sire or necessity or demand for alcoholic
stimulants 1 am in full possession of my
faculties, have absolute control of my
self and a will power that l can depend
on, whereas before l was an abject slave
to drink.
Il enjoy good appetite ana at night
sleep like a hog 1 want to make this
statement as emphatic as is possible. be-
cause drinking men have had their at
tention called from time to time, in the
most glowing terms, to various prepara-
tions for the cure of drunkenness, until
the English language has been almost ex-
hausted of adjectives, when 1t comes to
emphasizing a truly wonderful prepara-
tion in a way that will convince them
that it is something out of the ordinary
and one of the greatest boons for suf-
fering humanity that has ever been dis
covered.
II hope every drinking man that reads
this will go to you for treatment, as he
will undoubtedly be cured of all thirst for
alcoholic stimulants. and will be put in
fine physical condition.

1t Is well known, says the New York
Evening Post, that Franklin made a
particular study of colds and had his
own theory about them, which We be-
lieye is pretty much the theory of to-
day. One Of his assertions was that
catching cold does not come from mere
cold, but from unequal temperature
over the body and from undistributed
moisture. To prove this he made
number Of observations on occasions
when he did and did not suffer A few
of these follow:

By putting OH Il dry shirt on a wet

RULED BY INSURGENTS.
Many Districts Still in the Hands Of
the Rebels

St. Petersburg, Jan. 17.-Though the
government is reasserting a precari
Gus authority in the cities along the
railroads in the Caucasus, official ad-
vices received yesterday show that
the mountaineers are under arms in
large sections of the viceroyalty. The
government of Kutais is entirely in
the hands of the insurgents, who have
interedicted taxes and are levying
their own import duties.
The reduction of the inaccessible
districts of Gori and Osurgeti, whose
mountain strongholds with their fierce
farriors have been the despair of all
conquerors, will involve campaign
paign of weeks and even months. with
the cooperation of mountain artillery,
in comparison with the operations in
the Baltic provinces are child's play.

for San Francisco freight on the west
side of the isthmus. 1t is charged
that steamers frequently refuse to
stop to take on freight and even leave
port with only a partial cargo, while
great quantities of freight lie on the
wharves.
1t was alleged that the motive for
this course on the part of the steam
ship company was SO to hinder the
handling of materials for the canal
delivered at Colon by the steamships
operated by the government from
New York, so that shipments would be
necessary over the lines of the Pacific

bers of the appropriations committee
that the Pacific Steamship company
might be induced to act more prompt
