WHAT CURES?'
NATURE OR DRUGS?

brother. sister, uncle, aunt nephew.
niece, cousin, friends or neighbor who
has been cured, permanently relieved
Of suffering by taking drugs into his or
her stomach How many people do
you know who, have taken drugs as a
possible cure for some chronic all
ment? How many are still looking for
relief? Do drugs and patent medicine
seem to be 5he proper treatment for
them? 1 could ask you questions by
the hundred that one never could an
swer, and vel people who have taken
enough medicine to give an elephant
bath, yes even drown him, persist
in taking it. Stop Think Don't you
believe it IS time to give up the hope
of ever regard Ing that lost health in
such an absurd way? Did il ever oc-
cur to you th@t the stomach treats
medicine in the same manner as it
does any article that enters it, unless
the drug is too strODg for the stomach
TO master. In such an event the same
thing happens IS would had you taken
too mucH improper food. Indigestion
follows. The suffe rer has added an
other condition to the first; another
kind of drug is tricd; it fails the same
as the first; he gradually grows worse;
each change of 10 edicine is like driv-
ing another nail in the coffin. Occa-
sionaliy an indiVidual RECEIVERS. He
but this Is not true. He later meets
some one who is suffering the same as
he did. This party. who is anxious to
shake of the misery, tries the same
medicine; 1t fails. Why? Because
drugs do not cure, and here is the very
proof that any individual with thin
bleful of brains can comprehend. You
ask me what cured? 1 will tell you
what l. was, and you can draw your
own conclusions as to whether I am
right or wrong. 1t was Nature, and
Nature cured him in spite of the OBJ
stacles placed in her way. Nature
had the power to cope with the drug
and the disease as well, but in the ma
jority of cases the patient places too
many obstacles in Natures way, and
she is unable to stand the combined
forces. The sufferer gradually grows
worse. There is but one true physi-
clan. and that is Nature. The best
doctor Is one who makes Nature work
the easiest, removes all hindrances and
assists Nature naturally. This is just
what the Drugless treatment, admin
istered by DR.. Farnsworth, who is
with the Utah Drugless Institute, 210
Auerbach building, Salt Lake City,
Utah, does.

Mr.. DUNBAR'S POSITION.

Editor The Herald: Referring to your
editorial in this mornings issue on the
subject of street signs, permit me to call
your attention to the following facts:
The matter of purchasing street signs has
been before the city council committee
since last December. Your own paper, as
well as the other daily papers printed
during that time the competitive bids of
the American Sign company of Clyde, o.,
and at least one other competitor. Sam
pie signs and posts were placed on exhi-
bitiOn as early as last February at the
northwest corner of the city and county
building grounds. by at least two COM
petitors, and several of the newspapers,
including your own, have made mention
of these sample signs and posts.
It was impossible that the prices on
various signs submitted should be uni
FORM for the reason that in some cases
prices were given on a wood sign with
enamel facing, While the American Sign
company's prices wNce submitted on all
metal signs These signs are not tin as
you have misstated to the public. but are
made of No. 20 gauge Bessemer steel, and
will stand vibration without injury to thf
letters. which are of the same metal
The fixtures or brackets are adjustable
so that a four-way sign can be set at any
angle when fastened to a trolley or tel
egraph pole, or 10 the top of a post.
These adjustments are covered by pat
ents. If the city council shall award a
contract to the American Sign company,
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1907-08-18

and if the mayor shall approve of their
action, / will receive commissions from
the American Sign company of approx
mately 1926
In order to test your fairness in con-
nectiOn with this matter, 1 make you the
following proposition: I will post the
sum of $500 to be forfeited to any char
liable institution you may designate, if
any one of the following statements is
not absolutely true. and you to post
similar sum to be forfeited if you fail to
prove any of the statements untrue
am willing that the matter should be re-
ferred to three reputable citizens. One
to be selected by you, one by myself,
and they TO select the third
F'irst-That the American Sign company
of Clyde, o., is the largest and most sue
cessful concern of its kind in the United
States and that it furnishes more street
signs to the leading cities of the United
States than any other company.
SecOnd-That the price OF s.. s. each for
a complete fOur-way metal sign and
bracket with bolts and fastenings is as
low price as any city in the United
States can get, allowing for the freight
between the factory and Salt Lake City
Third-That 25c each for carriage and
distribution from the depot and placing
and adjusting of the signs on telegraph
and trolley poles in various parts of the
city is a reasonable price and does not
admit of more than &c profit, allowing for
breakage and delays.
FourthLThat no, metal foqr-way sign
and bracket equal in quality can be
bought in the open market anywhere for
less than S2.S5 T. o. b. cars Salt Lake
If you will take the trouble to examine
the sample sign near the county build
ing, you can convince yourself in five
minutes that your talk of tin signs and
your charge that the prices are six TO ten
times too high, are absolutely foundation
less.
I have submitted to the council com
mittee such prices and informatio- as
have been forwarded to me by nv COM
pany during the past nine months If
the city is to have new street signs this
year. the matter cannot be further de-
layed. and this 1 think was the chief
reason for the council committee reach
ing a conclusion at its last meeting

f. J. KieSel Of National Irriga-
! ton Congress Wants Big
State Demonstration.
GATHERS AT SACRAMENTO
EXTENSIVE PREPARATIONS ARE
MADE FOR CONFERENCES.

Fred ]. Kiesel. member of the execu-
tive committe of the Fifteenth Ma
tional Irrigation congress, and chair
man for Utah, was in the city yester-
day promoting the success of the con-
gress, which will convene at Sacra-
mentO. Cal, on Sept. 2.
The California city is making great
preparations for the congress, 500 600
having been raised for the entertain
ment of the guests. Vice President
Fairbanks will be one of the speakers,
and there is a faint possibility that
President Roosevelt may also attend.
Speaking of the coming congress yes
terday, Mr.. Kiesel said:
The forthcoming session of the Ma
tional Irrigation congress, which, ac-
cording to the call, is to convene at
Sacramento, Cal, on the End day of
September, furnishes one more signifi-
cant opportunity TO Utah and Utah
people to receive the worlds recogni-
ton as the first home and the first
practicers of modern irrigation in the
United States. 1t is also within the
province of our agTiculturists and hOr-
ticulturists to demonstrate that not
only was Utah the first, but she is the
best of the irrigated lands of the earth.
To that and, as a member of the ex-
ecutiVe committee of the National r.
rigation congress, l invoke early and
aggressive activity, in order that our
representation of men. measures and
products, at the fifteenth session of the
irrigation congress. may not only ex-
cell all our past efforts and presenta-
tions, but may maintain us in the
front rank

ant was Mr. Peterson, who handles the
local work on the Douglas Budget.

recovered its previous decline, but was &c higher
than II left of the day before. Other grains previ-
