to have the nerves freed to the lungs
Just the same as these blind people did
to their eyes.
1t IS the same in heart diseases, which
are being cured every day.
They are eongested at the spine and
heart weakened by it.
Also, they do not know how to free
the ribs in Asthma SO the air can be
expelled from the lungs and cause a
vacuum to draw fresh air in.
Y That is why the Still Osteopath In
Urinary is curing them every day, while
drug doctors are helpless.
In Neuralgia and all kinds of head
aches we loosen the nerve so it can
cause circulation of blood and feed the
nerve and you are well again.
Droves of them have been cured here
IN FL Paso of stomach troubles and liver
troubles, and Indigestion.
Free the nerves and the circulation
starts up and you are yourself again.
rheumatism is only eongesred nerve
to some of the muscles.
l have never seen a case of anv kind
of rheumatism that was incurable bv
Osteopathy, and we have more cases, /
suppose, than all the rest of the CITY.
In BRIGHT'S DISEASE, we free the
nerves to kidneys and that IS why, when
we restore them TO normal, they carry
all the waste out OF the system, and
you are well again, and because the
nerve was pressed on, and weakened
had more poison to carry off than it
was able to il why you cannot cure by
putting in more poison and whipping
up the already over worked nerves.

Peonage In

Mexico, D. F., April 9-From his
stock Of personal experiences in deal
ing with Mexican labor an American
mining man recently told me this story.
He came to Mexico several years ago

owned a large interest He found that

mine was prosperous. and we could

considered was a fairly decent wage.
So, without saying anything 70 the
other Americans on the job, who had
been in Mexico longer than L had, L
raised the wages all around from so
cents 10 a dollar a day I flattered my
self that 1 had done a humane act, to
say nothing of salving my New England
conscience. When they heard of it the
other Americans laughed and said,

What was the result? Inside of two

If a man fled, owing money to the

it was not fair to the laborers. The

the point and withdrew his objections.
How the Plan Worked.
THAT was three years ago." said the
planter, land not a man has run away
from my place since. The men watch
each other If man is planning to
escape, his companions know it. For
merly they used to keep quiet and let
him go. Now, in order to save them

Planters complain that labor condi-
lions in the tropics are demoralized
With unanimity they place the blame
upon the American plantation COM
panies and their American managers.
Labor in the tropics used to be cheaper,
and more efficient, at IS, 25 and so

the American companies were stock SELL

Unfortunately, the management of
majority of these stock company plan

often downright dishonest. They
wanted labor and were willing to pay
almost any price for it. They bulled
wages, and held before the poems the
lures of 81 and s1-25 day, with better
food than they had ever eaten before
in their lives.
Mistaken Idea of Laxity.
Coupled with this pampering of the

Fox's signs of faltering: Griffith has
been subjected to so much criticism IN
the past for his trades that he is afraid

any number of imaginary propositions,
which Manager Chance and myself
have given serious consideration and
discussion, only to find him backing
away every time an attempt is made to
pin him to anything definite. | have
wired him that we are done with that
sort of dealing. If he has any trade
which he is willing to make we Will
say yes or no, thereby closing the in

The Chicago club wants Bob Spade,
but is not willing to give twice his
value in players. What men we are
willing to give for him l do not feel
like making known to the public un-
less there is some chance of a DEAL
which, on Griffith's past performances
seems doubtful.

appoint him to act in this capacity for
