SAN FRANCIsCo's CHANCE.

1t is well settled that the financiers
OF the East and of New York espec-
ally will meke a way for the people
of San Francisco to rebuild their
town. The Suns telegraphic col
umns of yesterday told of this fact
in telegram wherein 1t was said a
conference of financiers was held In
New York and the matter had been
virtually settled, there being abund-
ant of capital available through Of
fers. The idea has the endorsement
OF the leading men Of San Francisco
and is thus explained by one:
"The plan does not involve any
guaranty of the city of San Francisco
or the state of California, for we be-
lieve the realty of San Francisco will
be ample guarantee and security for
all money invested in the company.
The plan. broadly. is to incorporate.
,enabling subscribers to create a fund
which shall be used through the
agents Of the corporation resident in
San Francisco in lending money on
the realty. which is worth as much
today as on the day before the earth
quake.
: ut Is well known that the records
OF realty were preserved intact and
that the titles are perfectly clear
Ready money should be available be-
fore the great bulk of the insurance
policies are paid over. As to whether
the corporation wild be limited to
short term of years or will be made
practically perpetual, as a permanent
investment. cannot say.
Suitable laws will be passed and
the people are enthusiastically going
ahead and not a dissenting voice will
be raised to any arrangement which
may be demanded which will be fair.

thing and will take rank at the top

The Cure of Headaches.
BY Osteopathy.


"what bone would you pull to
treat a headache?" asks a layman
Any bone that may be out of It's cor.
rect position in the neck or back, so
as to bring its pressure upon the
nerves which express the pain sense
that is, II the headache happens
to be due to a bony slip; but of course
it may not be at all. That is one
frequent cause, but there are many
others which are apt TO be operative
A muscular contraction in the back.
in the neck. or over the head, may
likewise cause headache. Indiges-
tion, eye-strain, mental fatigue, a
sluggish liver, constipation, kidney
disease, and many other things are
frequent causes of headache. Hence
the cure of headache osteopathically
is the cure OF its cause or causes. To
find the remedy these causes, having
as they usually do, an anatomica,
basis. requires special and thorough
training. and that is why osteopathy
exists as an independent school of
medicine. It's practitioners are spec
ialists. They cure headaches, as they
do other diseases not by pulling" q
bone, unless a bone needs pulling,
but by finding the cause of each
special headache and giving that
cause whatever treatment is needed
to cure 1t. So in a dozen different
headaches none might be treated
alike osteopathicallyl and yet ten or
eleven Of the dozen would likely be
cured.
Osteopotby Is probably doing more
for suffering humanity than any re.
cent discovery. and / should like for
you to investigate its merits. |
should be pleased to see all who may
be interested in osteopathy at any
time from a. IN. to IL and to-
3 p. m.
Osteopathy is the sane. rational
treatment of illness and disorders.

Burglars broke into the kitchen

Kentucky avenue between Fourth

stole everything the pantry and
kitchen held in the way of groceries
and supplies. Entrance was effected
through the kitchen door. and no
trace was left to lead to identity of
the burglars.
There are many similar burglaries
committed in Padutah and the

more than food. The police have been
instructed to keep a close lookout
