OUR presidents
and Their DEATHS.
Diseases And Tragedies That
Carried Them To
Rest.

Three of the nations presidents met
death by assassination. The others
suffered from a variety of ills OF the
kind that affect ordinary mortals, ran
yipg from cholera morbus, which car
ried off Zachery Taylor to old age,
which brought John Adams life to a
peaceful end, says the Detroit Free
Press. John Adams, by the way was
the Oldest of the presidents being
ninety-one at his death. 1t is noticea-
BILE that later-day presidents have not
reached the ripe age of the chief mag
istrates of the earlier period. This
is the way the presidents died:
George Washington-His death was
the result of q severe cold contracted
while riding around his farm In
rain and sleet storm on December III,
1899. The cold increased and was fol-
lowed by chill, which brought on
acute larynigitis. His death occurred
on December IA, 1899. He was sixty
eight years of age.

having reached his ninety-first mile
stone Through active mentally, he
was nearly blind and unable to hold

age, and peacefully on July 2S, 1886.
His faculties were undimmed to the
last. He was eighty-five.

death which occurred in the seventy
third year of his age onJuly 4, 1881,
1t was assigned to no other cause tina
enfeebled health
Thomas Jefferson-He died at the
age of eighty-three, few hours be-
fore Adams only July 1926. His dis
ease was chronic diarrnea, superindu-
ced by old age, and, his physicians
said. by the too free use of the waters
of the White Sulphur Springs.
John Quincy Adams--He was strick-
en- with paralysis on February q,
1913. while addressing the speaker of
the house of representatives, being at
the time 3 member of congress. He

was eighty-one years of age.

1915, seventy-eight years old. He suf
fered from consumption, and finally
dropsy, which made its appearance
about six months before his death.
Martin Van Buren-He passed akay
on July "a, 1862. from a violent attack
of asthma, followed by catarrhal af-
fections of the throat and lungs. He
was eight years of age.
William Henry Harrison-The cause
of his death was pleurisy, the result
of a cold which he caught on the day
of his Inauguration. This was accom-
panied with severe diarrhea, which
would not yield TO medical treatment.
His death occurred on April, 4, 1871,
a month after his Inauguration. He
was sxty-eight years of age.
John Tyler-He died on January II,
1862, at the age of seventy-two. Cause

Home life in England lacks the init.

England have to leave home early in
life to go out into the wide world and

lier than our sons do.-Berliner Tage-

RESULTS
FROM NEW TREATMENT
An Omaha Lady Is Cured of Skin Trouble
That Had Defied All Doctors for a Year.
United Doctors Made the Cure in IL Days
of Their Wonderful New Treatment.

The United Doctors nave had their
Omaha institute open about three weeks,
yet In that short time, they rave made
a number of cures that are almost mira
culous. News of the wonderful cures that
are being made by the United Doctors In
their institutes in the East ave reached
the West, and as a result, the United Doc
tors have not lacked for patients. Their
waiting rooms are always crowded with
patients from all points In the West, thus
they have had ample opportunity to show
the people OF Omaha and Nebraska h
this wonderful new treatment will do. 1t
is the policy OF the United Doctors to re-
fuse all cases that are incurable. This
assures a cure for every case accepted for
treatment, and In this short space OF
three weeks, these scientific medical spe-
~clalists nave made several wonderful
cures In Omaha. One of the most inter-
esting cases that has been cured by them
in the omaha institute is that of Mrs.
Clarence p. Mcdonald Of 20O6 North 22d
street.
The story of Mrs. McDonald's case is
we'll explained In a letter which she wrote
to the United Doctors and which is pub
lished below with her permission.
Omaha. November 20, 1908.
United Doctors, corner 18th and Harvey
streets, Omaha, Neb.-Gentlemen:
1 am writing you this letter to make
a statement concerning myscase. My
trouble first started last May, when a
small pimple appeared on my face. 1t
troubled me considerably and soon COM
menced to grow. In a short time it had
increased SO IN size that it covered the
entire right side of my nose, and ex-
tended over a considerable portion of my
cheek, and had swollen my face so that
my right eye was closed.

Haskins turned up in Omaha Friday
morning and stoutly denied that he had
ever sought a watery and chilly grave In
the big MiEzoo. He will attempt to patch
up the difference between himself and
Mrs. Haskins.
