HAD A MULTITUDE
OF TROUBLES
Frank Gambel, of Midland City
Was In Poor Health for
Several Years.
NO DOCTOR COULD CURE.
Saw Others Cured by United Doctors
and So He Went to Them and
Was Cured.

Frank Gambel, a prominent citizen Of
Midland City, ILL.,, is one Of the many who
had been sick with a chronic disease for
years and could get no relief from any
doctors treatment until at last he went to
the United Doctors, those expert medical
specialists who have their Omaha Insti-
tute at 9Os Neville block.
MIDLAND CITY. Ill, Sept. IS. 1909.
UNITED Doctors; on the Sth day of
June. 1909. 1 went to the office OF the United
Doctors after having read and been told
of their wonderful cures, I had been suf-
fering for three years with rheumatism,
pains in my heart and a very bad stomach,
which at times would trouble me SO much
that l would choke up and / would feel as
though l would die. I had doctored with
various doctors and tried different things
to get relief, but all OF my efforts were Of
no avail, and It seemed as though the doc
tors did not understand my case.
when / went to the United Doctors the
specialists examined me most thorouAiy-
an examination such as / had nevet had
beforehand at last told me that he could
cure my case. OF course, after being ex-
perimented upon for three years a person
could scarcely believe a statement like
that, and I am one OF the kind that have
to be shown.
"weil, 1 have been shown to my hearts
content, and today 1 feel better than L
have for the last three years. and / know
that I win be entirely cured in a short
time.
"AlI OF my old stomach symptoms have
entirely disappeared and I can eat any
thing and as much of Il as 1 want.
don't know how to express my apprecia-
tion and thankfulness for the regaining of
my health which 1 nave received through
the skillful and conscientious treatment OF
these wonderful specialists, the United
Doctors. eg3f
II will be only too glad to advise or help
in any way possible any human being who
is suffering as l was, and will answer any
Inquiries. either verbal or written. as to
my past and present condition.
Thanking you from the depths Of my
heart. I beg to remain,

the motor, suddenly ceased. 1t was a new
sensation for the embyro sky pilot, but
his instructor, the cool-headed Wilbur
Wright, grasped the levers without delay
and brought the machine safely to earth.
After several hours Of investigation II
was found that q careless private. whose
duty Il was to keep the gasoline tank
filled, had failed to replenlsh the supply
after yesterdays flights.
Altogether five instruction flights were
made today, two in the early morning
and the other three after 4 o'clock.
Lieutenants Lahm and Humphreys each
accompanied Mr.. Wright on one of the
morning flights and Lieutenant Humphreys
made two Of the later flights and Lieuten-
ant Lahm, the other. During one of the
afternoon flights when Lieutenant Hum
phreys was with the instructor, the aero
plane again raced with a railroad train. 1t
seemed to be moving faster than the train.
In the last flight Of the day, on which
Mr.. Wright was accompanied by Lieuten-
ant Lahm, the machine remained aloft
nineteen minutes and five seconds, being
the longest flight that has been made at
College park.
Lieutenant Benjamin ID. Foulois will be-
gin taking instructions from Mr.. Wright
within a short time and the aviation les
sons at College Park should be concluded
by the end of the month, considering the
progress that has been made.
Lieutenant Foulois today gave Mr.. Wright
the governments check for 10000 as a part
payment for the machin which was pur-
chased from the Wright brothers for the
corps. Another $4,000, making the
total contract price Of 10000. will be paid
when the two army officers, who ave been
receiving Instructions, are pronounced ac-

SOUTH OMAHA HIGH SHOWS WELL
Scores = Touchdown on Bellevue
second Clever.

The South Omaha foot ball squad re-
turned home from Bellevue last night more
than a little elated with having scored O
against the second eleven Of the
college, assisted by one or two OF the first
team men. 1t was simply a practice game,
though twenty-five and ifteen-minute
halves were played. The coaches of each
team were allowed on the field. The score
was made by rapid advances through the
Bellevue line. chiefly by Dicknan and
Stryksr. South Omaha was able IN the
first half to advance fifteen and twenty
yards at a time. After his touchdown
Stryket Kicked a good goa.
The Bellevue team scored nothing in the
first half. In the second half several Of
the first team men were put into the back
field. Bellevue scored one touchdown, hut
failed 10 kick goal.
South Omaha's work was consistent and
would have been steadier except for the
reputation OF the college men, which made
the high school boys a little nervous At
each visit OF South omaha TO Bellevue a
marked improvement has been shown.
Forward passes worked nicely. Chick In-
ghram, playing his first season. showed up
well in catching the ball on these plays.
The team work was better than before
The South Omaha boys played straight
foot ball and did not uncork any new plays

HospItnI Location IN Doubt.

Thomas, one of the members of the State
Board of Charities, was here today on hfs
way 10 Custer. where he will meet the
other members Of that board to look Into
the matter Of establishing the tuberculosis
hospital provided for at Custer. by the
last legislative session. There appears to
be a hitch in the location of that institu-
ton. While the state provided an appro-
priation for a building, nothing was done
to provide money for securing a site.
The board also appears to find it hard
TO secure a location which will give them
sufficient farm land to supply the wants
Of such an institution, even II they had
the money. There has been talk of locat-
ing the institution at some other point on
account OF the real estate situation. but
it is not likely that the board could divert
the funds specifically provided for Custer.
to any other point, even II they so desired.
The people Of Custer are up against the
proposition of either providing a site, or
waiting until another appropriation can be
secured to purchase a site; unless they can
induce the national government to give
them a site for the purpose, out OF the
forest reserve lands.
