spent over three months investigating
Force of Life treatment says in regard
to Mr.. Hyatt, that his case showed an
instance of remarkable recovery
Raised, as it We're, from the grave"
In my varied experience in treating
chronic diseases l have had every OPP
portunity to study various methods
and kinds of treatment, and / can
honestly and conscientiously tell you
that I have never seen any treatment
which I believe compares with the
treatment which / am in a position to
offer you. / know this is strong
statement but l do not feel that it is
one word stronger than the absolute
truth.
l have held many positions Of honor
and trust, and 1 could not afford to
make you single promise that l am
not in position to fulfill, or to tell
you anything which would be untrue.
do not ask you to send me one
cent of money; merely write me, CIV
stating the leading symptoms of your
trouble and your case will be
diagnosed, and 1 will prescribe for you
a special course of treatment. I will
send you this course of treatment
without one cent of pay. There are
absolutely no conditions attached to
this offer If your letter is received
today, your treatment will be sent to-
morrow, one thousand persons who

money to give these free courses of
treatment, but l want to prove to the
sick and afflicted in every city and
locality in this country that at least we
have a treatment which is absolutely
sure land certain in it's effects
No matter what your disease; no

tell you so, but do not hesitate because
your case has been pronounced in
durable.

If you wish to try my free course of

NV treatment is not patent medi-
cine or a cure-all but it is treat
ment that will be prescribed especially
for your particular case after care
full diagnosis Of your condition.
True it will contain oxygen to kill
deadly germs that infest your blood
and tissues. Oxygen is the life Of your
blood. 1t gives vitality to the red
blood corpuscles and fills you with
vim and vigor but is death to bacteria
and disease germs.
My treatment will contain artificial
nerve force, which is the nearest APP
proach to natural living nerve force
that has been discovered. 1t is truly
marvellous how this artificial nerve
force takes the place of the natural
nerve force, and gives you wonderful
strength and power. My treatment
will also contain special remedies
carefully prescribed to suit your par
ticular condition.
I also use a marvellous Psy-Phy
Force, which I belive is the most Won
derful healing power known to man.
This mighty unseen force of such
tremendous potency is a Divine gift
within the reach of all, and in years
past people who accidentally stumbled
On it and employed it were regarded
as privileged by the Creator, and their
power was considered supernatural,
because it could not be explained, and
yet this great power, mighty as it is,
is absolutely harmless, incapable Of
producing injury; a sleeping giant that
requires but little effort to make it
your slave. The tabled CENT of Alad-
din's wonderful lamp possessed a
power which I belive was scarcely
greater than that which 1 can reveal
to you. - = 1870
Doctors in great universities of
France and Germany have taken up
the study of this mysterious force.
Philosophers and meta physicians have
been compelled to admit that they can
not fathom it's secrets. You may at
tribute it to rehabilitation of nerve
force, establishment of vital magne-
tic energy, psychic power-or what
you will-the fact remains that
patients in utter despair have claimed
that they have been restored to health
by this wonderful treatment when all
other things failed.
Mrs. N. w. Bowden, of New Bern,
N. c., says: "One year ago was in a
dying: condition. Three doctors had
given me UP to die. 1 tried Force of
Life and today l am a we'll woman !
thank God for the day that treatment
was sent to me-" Here is also letter
from Mrs. Hannah Peters, of Harris
burg. Pa, You may read it for your
self Mrs. Peters says: II thank our
heavenly Father for guiding me tC
you, and for the good health you have
restored to me. l would have been in
nv grave had it not been for you
Your treatment has certainly cured me
completely" Then take the case OF
Mr.. Hyatt. Here was man who had

SAN ANTONIO GETS CONVENTION.
Prohibition and Local Option Both to
be Voted on in Democratic
Primaries.

San Antonio is to have the
Democratic State convention.
The question of submitting
statewide prohibition to the peo-
pie is to be passed upon in the
July primaries and also that of
local option.
Under the first assignment it
is proposed, broadly speaking,
to wipe out the manufacture,
sale, gift and exchange Of intoxi-
eating beverages within the
State, also the intrastate ship
ment of liquors except for me-
dicinal and sacramental purpo-
SeS. The second proposition
amounts to declaring for and in
dorsing something we already
have.
One other proposition should
have been submitted, while they
were at it: That of saloon or
no saloon. Stop the retailing
Of liquors by the drink-close

opinion of The News that ninety
per cent of the evils complained
of would cease. Such a propo-
sition would carry in Texas

THE MOST EXTRAVAGANT.

The St. Louis Globe-DemOcrat,
a staunch Republican paper,
warns its party that the present
deficit at the beginning of a
presidential canvass is an awk-
ward thing The first of May
the treasury showed up a deficit
of over 500, 100000 as against a
surplus of $50 100000 for the
same time last year. And in
spite of this going the wrong
way the Congress just adjourned
has been the most eXtravagant'
ever held. A Republican admin
istration in all branches of the
National government statement
of this character coming from
Democratic authority might not
count for much except with Dem
ocrats, but when such charges
are made by Republican organs
it should bc something for seri-
Gus thought, to be followed by
prompt action on the part of all
people who favor good govern
mpnt. Here is what the New
York Globe, a straight Republi
can paper, has to say about it:

travagant government the world
has ever known, and year by
year we are making it more eX.
travagant. 1t is unpopular to
talk economy-it is held to indi-
cate smallness Of mind. Is not
this the richest country in the
world? Can't we afford to have
what we want when we want it:
The older generation thought
that one of the prime objects of
administration was to keep eX-
penditureS down. Parties and
public men boasted of what is
now sneered at as cheese-paring.
Now the man who opposes appro-
priations, instead of gaining pop
ular applause, is likely to find
himself considered a narrow
minded old fogy who is out of
place in generous age,
The administration of PreSi-
dent Roosevelt is the most eXpen-
sive ever known during a time of
peace. In every department OF
the government there has been
an increase of diStributiOn-in
most cases an increase relatively
larger than our increase in wealth
and population. The president
| has been an Industrious writer
of state papers. He has bonn
barded congress with messages
general and messages special,
He has touched on almost every
subject of mundane concern. Yet
one looks in vain through the vol
umes of his writing to discover
any more than perfunctOry ad-
vice to keep expenditures down.
He has been an adviser of new
appropriations all along the line.
No president in our history has
! shown a smaller development of
the economy sense. He has many
times shown extreme impatlence
when it was suggested that while
a particular thing might be good,
perhaps the government could
! not afford it. He has enlarged
on how mean it was for an oppu'
lent country to tighten its purse
strings.
Explaining by those RESPONSE
BILE will do no good. No one vii
notice the defense that the money
went for good objects. The Taft
administration may find itsel1
embarrassed as was the second
Cleveland administration wher
the supreme court invalidateC
the income tax. Moreover, the
country expects a revision of the
tariff next year, and by revision
it means smaller duties, with, il
all probability, smaller revenue
This congress is doing what il
can to block tariff revision, not
mere directly by refusing to act
but indirectly by doing what i
can to create a financial condition
that will make revision next yeal
extremely difficult. Nor can one
ignore the possible injury to bus
mess if next year the govern
ment is out of funds and is com
PEELED to borrow to meet running
expenses. From whatever as
pect the matter is viewed thu
contempt for the budget showl
by the present congress is calcu
lated to arouse apprehension.
The above from Republican
authority strictly, shows wha
an overwhelmingly Republican
Congress is doing for the coun
try. 1t is the G.. O. p. gospel

Saturdays Storm.

A cloud having the appearance
of real tornado appeared in the
northwest Saturday evening. 1t
excited a great deal of interest
and attention on the part of Can
yOn City people for the very
good and sufficient reason that
so far cyclones have not visited
the Plains country. The torna-
do, if such it really was, went to-
wards Amarillo.
Reports have been current
from this alleged cyclone for
several days. One man, hailing
from Amarillo, said that he saw
it strike a bunch of about sixty
head of cattle; that it carried
them up in the air some forty or
fifty feet killing seven outright
and Gripping several others.
This is alleged to have occurred
between here and Amarillo and
in this county. No confirmation
of this story has yet been re-
ceived, in fact no proof of any
damage in this county save, per
haps, the overturning of a few
outhouSeS has yet reached The
News. The Amarillo Daily Pan
handle of Tuesday telling of this
storm and the interest it excited
in the minds of Amarillo people
says:
A number of people had
noticed a peculiar funnel-shaped
formation in the clouds in the
direction of Canyon City. The
whirling column of smoky
brown clouds came north fast
and before it had come parallel
with Amarillo, spectators could
easily see that the formation was
real twister. Fortunately the
point of whirl was too far above
the earth most of the time to
affect anything on the ground,
but the power with which it
sucked clouds into it and whip
ped them into its whirl left no
doubt as to the latent mischief
in it. Going further north with
the bank of cloud of which it
was part, the cyclone seemed to
divide, or to be followed by an
other. The two assuming water
spout forms, were last seen
hanging over the Canadian coun-
try and disappearing in the
northeast.
WE'RE NOT POWERFUL.
Although people who have had
abundant reason for knowing
something about the subject
from costly experience in other
places, say that the unusual Wis
itors were nothing more than
big whirlwinds and that they
would not have done much dam
age if they passed through the
town, the scores of watchers
in the streets, from housetops,
and from upper story windows
Saturday afternoon were greatly
relieved to see the twisters pass
high in the air and west of the
city. That the cyclones were
by no means harmless is abun-
dainty proved by the damage
done on the hill north of town

A Unique Leap-Year Dance.

An attractive leap-year dance is de-
scribed in Woman's Rome Companion.
Each girl sends to the gentleman she has
chosen to be her escort, an invitation to
the dance, stating at what time he should
call for her.
The girls agree among themselves to ex-
change places, and each girl is masked
and dressed to represent some distin-
guished character. When the guests have
all arrived at the hall, each man is given
slip OF paper and pencil, to guess who
each girl is. A prize may be given be the
one guessing the most correctly.
Before unmasking, each man has the first
dance with the girl with whom be came.
Afterward comes the unmasking, and the
surprise, if the girl has played her part
well.
