By the W0nderouS Power Of
Magnetism The Boy Phenom-
enon Has Effected Many
Miraculous Cures in Au-
gusta and Vicinity.
Mr.. H. E. Cross Healed of Rheumatism
After Suffering Untold Agony.

81 much has been written concern
ing the wonderful healing powers OF
the Boy Phenomenon and the many
marvellous cures he has accomplished
IN this city in the past two weeks that
10 those who reside out Of the city it
roads like a romance. So surprising
have been some of the cures that not
only the afflicted but the whole world
stand aghast in utter surprise and be
vilderment at a power so wonderfully
potent as to be able to break conges-
ton and restore paralyZed limbs with
only a few treatments. Scores of
chronic diseases that have for years
defcd the combined skill of the medical
world have been brought to his private
office at the Hotel North and in a re
markable short time those who were
deaf We're made to hear and the
paralyzed limbs have taken on new life,
rheumatic and neuralgia pains have
disappeared, nervousness allayed.
50 many strange occurrences go the
rounds of the press and are published
as facts that people become skep-IIal.
But on one subject especially skcpti-
cism is rapidly disappearing. This is
due to the actual experience Of our
citizens ANA their public testimonials
regarding them. The doubter is forced
10 believe in the face of such evidence
as this. The public statement Of re
putable citizens living right here at
your home and who have lived here
most of their lives, whom you can see
every day, leaves no ground for the
skcptc to stand on.
The following letter of gratitude is
sclf-expanatory, as the writer, Mr.
Cross, is too well known for further
comment:
TO the Pubic:-I, II. L. Cross of s.
School street. a resident Of Augusta for
the past 20 years. feel it my duty both
to the public ana the Boy Phenomenon
to make this public statement. For the
past year | have been great and con-
slant sufferer with rheumatism, for
sixteen weeks | was confined to the
house ana since late November have
been unable to 10 any kind Of work the
pains were 50 great and my suffering so
terrible they can not be told in words
had tried many Kinds of medical
treatment but could get no material
benefit Last week | began treatment
with the boy Phenomenon as a last
resort, ana ] am happy to say the
treatment was wonderfully successful.
! am now free from every pain, and do
a fun days work with ease and without
any suffering | am thankful to this
young man who heals humanity.
(SigncdD II. +. CROSS.
The Boy Phenomenon NOT only cures
such cases as above but nearly all
chronic diseases yield quickly to his
treatment. Those desiring treatment
must call at once at his office at the
Hotel North as no new patient will be
taken after this week Thursday.

STATE HOUSE.
Assessor PottIe Talks on
Maine Live Stock.
Less Cattle in State Than in
Month Of April, 1906.
Sheep Show an Increase Of 1913
Over Last Year,
STATE HOUSE CALENDAR.
Next Meeting of Governor and Council,
Wednesday, June IL,

Hon. George Pottle of Lewiston,
chairman of the Board of State Asses
sors, was at the office of the board
yesterday on matters of business con-
nected with the work of the board.
one OF the matters upon which MI.
Pottle was working was that of ascer-
tanning the number of live stock in the
State as compared with that of the
year 1906. This is taken up under the
separate heads of horses and colts.
cows, oxen, young cattle and sheep, the
number Of each being taken in so
towns in every county.
According to the report of the board
for the year 1906 there We're in the
State on the first day of April of that
year 1880 horses and colts, 26,620
cows, 1647 oxen, 1928 young cattle
and 31,125 sheep. The figures secured
by Mr.. Pottle yesterday show that on
the first day Of April Of the present
year the number of live stock was as
follows: 1874 horses ana colts, 26,523
COWS. 1928 oxen, 11,1S9 young cattle
and 32,13S sheep.
1t will be seen from the above that
there has been decrease in the
different classes Of live stock with the
exception Of horses and colts, and
sheep, the former class showing an
increase Of 204. while the increase
shown in the latter class is 1913. The
decrease in the number Of cows is 81,
and that in the number Of oxen ia,
while the greatest decrease Of all is in
the young cattle, the figures being 1410.
In speaking of the latter Mr.. Pottle
stated that the reason for the decrease
was that the farmers were not raising
half calves enough and had not been
for several years, this being due
to the high prices Of other meats.
Concerning the valuation of the State
Mr.. POttlc considered the outlook very
promising. The assessors have re-
Ccived returns from more than one
third of the towns, and at no time, he
said, during the II years that he had
been member of the board, had the
towns made 50 uniformly large
increase in valuation as at present
There is every reason to believe that
increase in the STATE valuation for the
present year will be large.

Function OF salt.


The Wisconsin State Experiment
Station tested the effect of salt on
cattle and other domestic animals. Dry
cows, Doctor Babcock, OF tnat station,
found, required about three-iourths OF
an ounce of salt daily for maintaining
their best condition, and COW giving
milk requires great deal more salt
than one that is not producing milk.
and 1t Is estimated that such a cow
should have, in addition to the amount
Of chlorine In her ration, about one
ounce of salt per day, while very
deavy mixer may need still more.
The function of salt in the animal
economy Is not fully known, but 1t Is
accepted that 1t aids In facilitating the
albuminolds Of the food In passing
from the digestive canal into the blood.
Salt also Increases circulation of the
juices In the body and stimulates the
animal to greater activity. Thus a
horse at hard labor requires more salt
than one not at work, and for the same
reason a cow producing a large
amount OF milk requires more salt than
one that Is dry
The amount Of salt required by an
animal also depends to some extent up
on the character of the food consumed
Such foods as potatoes, root crops and
small grains are rich in potassium
salts, which increase the secretion of
sodium salts common salt) In the
urine, and hence the necessity OF sup
plying more salt when foods Of that
kind are used to a large extent
