DR.. BARTZ IS HERE To STAY


1t a recent issue it was ANNOUNCED
that DR.. Bartz, who is permanently
located in the Peoples National Bank
building, at the corner of Eighteenth
street and Second avenue, had con-
sented to extend his free treatment
offer until Nov. 80, on account of
the fact that there were so many call
ers that the specialist was unable to
see and examine them all.
Some who read the announcement
of the extension of time got the i'm
preston that DR.. Bartz was here for
short time only and would leave
after Nov. 80. This is a wrong i'm
preston, as DR.. Bartz is now perma-
nently located in Rock Island, he is
here to stay for all time.
When it was definitely learned
that DR.. Bartz's Office here was a
drifted to a question asked the doc
tor, why are men old at 60, who
should be young and vigorous. DR..
Bartz gave three reasons:
First. The stomach, liver and
bowels become clogged by over-eat-
ing or eating improper foods. The
results of the clogging is an improp-
er elimination of waste products.
Second The kidneys become
weakened from over-indulgence and
excuses, causing poor elimination of
urates, phosphates, etc, and the for
mutation of poisonous acids. The re-
suits of poor elimination by the bow
els and kidneys is the storing up of
host of waste products in the sys-
tenn. The blood is clogged with
waste, which settles in the tissues,
muscles and bones. The bones be-
come hard, brittle and weak. The
waste settles in muscles. weakening
and shriveling them, and causing a
multitude of aches and pains, and a
general clogging and stiffening in the
whole body.
The third cause of premature old
age is the weakening of the nerves
due to excuses in living and worry
and excitement of our life.
The usual treatment for the vari-
Gus aches and pains and weaknesses
of old age is physics and tonics. The
physics weaken the bowels and kid
neys still more, and the tonics give a
false strength, which is simply a bor-
rowing from the future, which must be
paid back with interest
The rational and scientific treat

ment is a general cleansing and purify
ing of the whole system, including the
blood. bowels, liver and kidneys. This
cleansing is not done with physics or
so-called blood purifiers, but must be
done by special treatment, including
electricity properly applied, suitable to
the particular case in hand Then,
after the system has been thoroughly
cleansed, the various eliminating or
gans must be built up by suitable treat
ment, so that they will properly elimin-
ate all the waste in the future.
Then the nerves must be fed-not
with nerve tonics or stimulants, but
with electricity and nerve foods. AS
is well known, the nerves control every
organ in the body, and if the nerves
are weak the whole system is weak.
Thus the secret of good health IN
old age is to cleanse the system and
keep it clean. To build up the
nerves and thereby keep up the nerve
tension and vitality.
"Give me an old man of GO or TO-
says DR.. Bartz, who mas no organic
lesion, but who is simply broken
down from excuses and wrong liv-
ing, and by my modern system If

will cleanse his system and build him
up, so that he will have the elasticity,
strength and manly vigor of an ordi-
nary man of 40. Building up the
nerves puts energy in the muscles,

nHELL--wHERE 10 IT7v

This is a topic Evangelist c. H..
Reiners Of Middletown uses to catch
the eye and interest the public It is
a suhject in which there Is world
wide interest, but there Is very wide
difference OF opinion upon IL.
A seemingly straight ar-wer would
be that hell is where heaven is not.
if the intrusive purgatory did not
come between.
A Fairfield county politician, who
came to Norwich and had a frolic
with the boys, In an address some time
after he arrived home. told his con-
stituents that hell was within three
miles. of Norwich, but he never re-
vealed the personal experience upon
which he based his conclusion
Since science has told us so much
about the earth's interior and the
darkness and frigidity of space. the
ideafthat hell is beneath our feet and
heaven up amid the stars has faded
from many minds.
The One who said: Heaven is
within you" could have located hell
with equal traightforwardness by
saying the same Of hell If it is right
eousness which produces heavenly
conditions it is certainly unrighteous-
ness which produces the Opposite con-
ditions, and it may not be amiss to
remark that hell may be self-made or
home- made.
When It comes to diabolical condi-
tons we can all agree very well upon
them. When It comes to recognize
Hades as a place we have no narticu-
to- ,5isaOraanaap+ with fhOSe who ha-
Iieve it is the grave, but those who
are trying to give it a geographical
location do not appear to succeed In
a map with the latitude and
longitude laid out upon it so that the
location may be made exact.
The way of wickedness is the way to
he'll, and it doesn't make much differ
ence as to the whereabouts of it.

OPTIONAL ExEcurIoAs

The element in Massachusetts op-
posed to capital punishment have
made an able and persistent fght for
Us adjustment and at last have been
favored with favorable report by the
Judiciary committee. who stand II to
in favor Of the bill permitting q jury
in capital cases to add to their verdict
without capital punishment"
This is regarded as a victory by
those who favor executions for capt.
tai crimes and a hattie royal is likely
over this Issue. The opponents to
this concession are already saying
that 1T gives to them q judicial au-
thority which very few juries how
ever good their intentions, are quail
ned to exercise wisely; and even
should they be inclined to exercise
their right to withheld that merciful
clause in the case Of a particularly
heinous crime, they would be likely
10 shrink from a responsibility made
all the greater by the power Of choice
given them"
An optional method has attained in
this state through the second degree
law which makes the punishment i'm
prisonment for life. The evidence of
deliberate, premeditated murder makes
no difference in the finding of the
jury. As rule. Connecticut juries
are opposed to hanging and they evade
n by returning second degree yerdiots.
