PUMPING PLANTS
At BREWSTER
McGUIN SAYS MANY
NEW PROPOSITIONS ARE Be
ING STARTED TO RECLAIM
BREWSTER FLAT LAND.

Engineer Fred McGuin is in .. the
city today from the Okanogan. He
says that the prospects are yer,
bright from the upper country. Fol
long time the people have held bacl
hoping that some big company would
undertake the watering of the big
Brewster Flat, but as nothing has
been done in that line there are many
smaller undertakings in progress for
1.-THE watering of that land.
Walter N Granger, Of Sunnyside
will reclaim about 1000 acres in the
spring, by short ditch, taking the
water out of the Okanogan.
Gillespie & Horton have 40 acres
which they are going to water in
the spring by means of a pumping
Fplant.
H. D. Wird, of Winshow, is making
arrangements to put in a pumping
plant to water a tract he has on the
fiat. There are many more who are
going to water their land in the same
way. This entire fiat of several thou
sand acres will eventually be watered
by means of small plants, taking the
water out of the Okanogan and Col
umbia rivers.

lecture COURSE
ARRANGED
FIVE NUMBERS UNDER AUSPI-
CES OF THE WENATCHEE HIGH
SCHOOL.-GOv. FOLK TO BE
HERE.

Arrangements we're completed
last night for some special attractions
to be given during the winter, COM
mencing in January. This lecture
course will be under the auspices of
the Wenatchee high school. The first
number is a lecture in January by a
noted platform speaker, Prof. Long.
In February the Dunbars will be
here. This is a male Quartette and
bell ringers. This organization has
a wide eastern reputation.
Edmund Vance Cooke, who made
such a hit here two years ago, is on
the list for March.
Governor Folk, of Missouri, is the
attraction for April.
There will be a musical number in
May, probably Olivia Dahl, the noted
Swedish folk-song singer.
This is a very attractive course,
and inasmuch as it is given under
the auspices of the high school it is
safe to say that the numbers will be
greeted with crowded houses.

DIR. BRAND SAVED MRS
MICHEL FROM BLINDNESS,

When the brilliant skill, the subtle
science, the broad intellect of man
or woman of knowledge command
the rapt attention of the grateful, it
behooves us to relate to the public
who the masters of their professions
are, so that the people may have
easier access to them.
Today | am in the happy and
proud position to tell the public that
it was the fine skill, the splendid
hand, the abundant science of DR.. F.
H. Brand, the eminent eye, ear and
nose and throat specialist, that saved
my good wife's eye and brought it
back from a most discouraging state
of disease to a fair, free and health
full sight. Faithfully and patiently,
from day to day, from week to week,

Tho Care Of Goldfish.

The secret Of success in caring for
goldfish is to keep the water they are
in fresh and sweet. Their globe should
be emptied and its water renewed as
often as every second day. Lift each
fish out gently in a glassful Of water,
empty the globe. wash 1t out, then put
in fresh water and put the fish back
again. Clear. sweet rainwater should

sustenance than a very few bread

A Sly Dog.


The late DR.. James Freeman Clarke
used to tell this story Of his dog:
AT one time my dog was fond Of
going to the railway station to see the
people, and l always ordered him to
60 home, fearing he would be hurt by
the cars. He easily understood that If
he went there 1t was contrary to my
wishes. So whenever he was near the
station If he saw me coming he would
look the other way and pretend not to
know me. II he met me anywhere else
he always bounded to meet me with
great delight. But at the station II
was quite different He would pay no
attention to my whistle or my call.
He even pretended to be another dog
and would look me right In the face
without apparently recognising me.
he. gave me the cut direct In the most
impertinent manner. the reason evil
IDENTITY being that he knew he was
doing what was wrong and did not
like to be found out. Possibly he may
have relied a little on my nearsighted-
ness in his maneuver."

did he labor and toll over this once
most sadly afflicted eye, and what we
regard as marvellous cure shall
now be made public for the purpose
tof congratulating the City Of Wenat-
chez upon its good fortune to have
in our midst true and knowing
specialist, who is fully worthy of the
name.
DR.. Brand is a cosmopolitan scien-
fist, who honors his art from the old
and the new world. He is no fakir
who gives public exhibitions on the
dramatic stage. He is man Of hon.
or and dignity, gentleman who is
modest in his claims, but who lets
his genuinetwerk and masterful coun-
sci tell the story of his head and his
occulistic deftness. English by birth.
he is truly American in his views and
his diversified but telling modes of
treatment; but in his case he adds
the medical skill Of the old world to
. LAC u0LLlIu6 uAoCOVCIACo VI lAC uSW.
Such a man, so far removed from
the bowls and wild clamorings of the
fakirs, of whom Wenatchee has had
/ sporadic wild Western visitations.'
should be upheld by all our people.
and every effort should be made to
influence DIR. Brand never to leave
our shores again, no matter how
great or flattering other opportunities
may be opened to him. His stay here
, should be made permanent; for We
natchee and the Columbia river val
| ley, Chelan, Douglas, Okanogan and
Lincoln counties are so much safer
and better to live in with the happy
knowledge of gentleman who can
really aid the suffering and help the
badly afflicted to speedy cure from
their ailing eye, ear, nose and throat.
DR.. Brand tends only to these four
members of the human body, and fits
glasses, and while he has studied
medicine in all it's branches, yet he
is only master in tie four emu
merated spheres and leaves the other
| fields to the other medical practition-
ers. DR.. Brand is g. genius in his
work, noble pioneer in Wenatchee,
and he is even more needed here than
a dozen splendidly equipped facto-
ries, employing about 100 people or
more each, to give our city her sec
Ond commercial roll of greatness.
l gladly recommend Dr.. Brand to
all such people and patients, as I do
truly believe that honor and work
should be given to him who knows
and him who cures.
Very truly in the interest of the
public,
! LOUIS MICHEL.
