THE SECRET OF TIE SUCCESS

which has attended the efforts of DIR.
l.. Nj. Turbin, the Specialist of Chicago
TO pre- ide source of relief for those
chronic sufferers who have given up all
hope, can be traced not only to the deep
study, scientific research and naturally
remarkable diagnostic powers, result
ing In complete mastery of his chosen
speciality of chronic diseases of men
and women, but IS also due to his abso-
lutte fairness and honesty towards his
patients in his conscientious and pains
taking endeavor to give them the best
possible advice and treatment to be
obtained.
By reason of his vast experience in
treating chronic affections which battle
the average general practitioner, and
the skillsnl methods em~loyed in eradi-
eating disease, DR.. Turb Al is entitled to
the entire confidence of those in search
of health. Those afflicted would do
well to consult him without delay, with
all the assurance that their trust Will
not be misplaced.
DR.. Turbin's standing in the profes
sion compels proper appreciation OF his
skill and our friends and neighbors who
have profited by his treatment, accord
him the reputation of being an emf
nently reliable physician in whom can
be placed the utmost confidence.
The manner in which so many have
been restored to health through his
clinistrations gives ample proof of the
esteem in which be is held in this com
munity. Dr. Turbin, although 8 busy
man, has visited our city one day OF
zach month for many years and may be
consulted free OF charge when he again
visits wsusau at the Bells Hotel Thurs

Secrefaru Duncan inforns n

Secretary duncan informs us that the
public can be assured of better fair
this year than ever. The past year was
Mr.. Duncan's first season as secretary,
and of course he had to go through the
schoo. Of experience. He says he made
few mistakes and will be prepared
this year so that he won't fall into the
same error. He will have first class
line of attractions but will cut out Allie
Wooster and his running horses. As to
other features it is too early to say any
thing.
Instead of allowing school children
to attend any day of the fair they choose
on school children's tickets, the tickets
will this year be good for certain day
only. One day-perhaps the last
will be designated as children's day
and all will be admitted free that day
As one of the features that day Mr..
Duncan will arrange to have all the
children form into line at certain time
and parade around the track. 1t will
be greater assemblage of children
than the people of Marathon county
ever witnessed. The secretary is also
planning some other novelties, but be-
fore the plans are completed they can
not be given publicity.

was ~. So lower than il = as a year ago
and So 90 higher than for 1906.
During the year all of the poles have
been painted, iron chains have been
substituted in place of ropes for lower

of wire on Cleveland avenue the city
has saved 10000 feet of wire formerly
in use, enabling further extensions TO
be made without further purchase of

10 Doing Good Work.

BY means OF an energetic field
force" and a capable corps OF experts
in the home office at Washington this
branch OF the government is continu-
ally investigating in all parts OF the
country such subjects as the relations
OF capital and labor. the hours OF la
Dor. the earnings OF laboring men and
women, and other similarly fruitful
topics. What is more, this public in.
stitution is continually striving 10 pro-
mote the material, social, intellectual
and moral prosperity Of the workers.
or course these government scouts in
the labor field cannot work In a rut.
Indeed the force is so mobile and the
individual workers so versatile that
when a serious dispute arises between
employers and employees or there Is q
controversy such as that some time
ago regarding conditions in the meat
packing industry all other work at the
bureau can be dropped and all hands
concentrate their attention upon the
causes and facts OF the crisis OF the
moment.
The late Senator Hoar OF Massachu.
sets Is perhaps entitled to be coz.
sidered the father OF the movement TO
have Uncle Sam systematically aid
the cause OF labor. II was In 1871 that
Mr.. Hoar. then a member OF the Unit
ed States house OF representatives. In
troduced n bill providing for the ap'
poIntment OF a commission to study
the subject OF wages and hours OF
labor and the division OF profits be
tween labor and capital in the United
States. The bill did not pass but the
ball had been started rolling and final
ly after much agitation congress in
1884 made provision for n bureau Of
labor as a part of the interior depart
ment. When the department OF com
merce and labor was organized In 1870;
the bureau of labor was taken undeI
its wing as one Of its principal
branches.

Employment Bureau.

Uncle Sam has also inAugurAted an
other aid 10 labor in the form Of tho
largest employment bureau in the
world. This IL an adjunct OF the bu'
reau of immigration. and IL In charge
OF Terence v. Powderly. at one time
a recognized leader OF union labor
throughout the country. Il Is the func-
ton OF this new bureau to inquire a.
to the facts about the reported demand
for labor In all parts Of the country.
Mr.. PowdeFly has opened correspond
ence with responsible oiiicers In every
state in the union concerning the need
for labor and the opportunities for en-
ployment In each state and when any
wOrkingmAn desires to make a change

nation reviews exhaustively for tho
benefit Of It's millions Of American eli.
ents the labor and statistical docu-
ments of all foreign countries and
when anything is discovered that has
a bearing on labor interests in Yam.
keedom II is promptly brought TO the
attention OF the people concerned.
Fourthly. the bureau fulfills its func-
ton as public servitor by publishing
and sending broadcast all new laws
that are passed affecting the interests
OF the working people. No matter
whether a law be passed by the nation.
al congress or by the legislature in
some one OF our two score states II
is no sooner on the statute books than
the labor bureau sends the tidings to
the toilers who will be affected Final
ly there Is n similar system for the
distribution of news relative TO court
decisions interpreting labor laws OF
other happenings affecting the rela
tons Of employer and employe.
Most interesting and most important
OF the undertakings OF the bureau Of
labor are the special investigations
conducted by its own experts, These
nave covered a very wide range Of
subjects II is, OF course. impossible
to enumerate them at length but JUS
to convey an idea OF the fields tina
have been explored there may be cit
ed such subjects as industrial commu
mites at home and abroad; co-opera

partments; the padrone system; con

loan associations; the inspection o
factories and workshops; the trade
union label; protection OF workingmeI
