The case of Mrs. Mamie Kern, 919
Fourth avenue north is fair sample
OF the work that Dr. Gates Is doing
In this city. Mrs. Kern suffered for
fifteen years with an aggravated form
OF stomach trouble. The last report
of her condition from the doctors was
that she had liberation Of the stomach
and floating kidney, making 1t neces-
sary to go to Rochester, Mimi. for
an operation.
Mrs. Kern dreaded surgical opera
ton almost as badly as she suffered
with disease. and hesitated to under
go one. she tried every remedy she
could find and was doctored by many
in hope that some relief could be
found Her stomach. Of course, was
in terrible condition; she was thin
and wasted, could hardly eat food OF
any kind and suffered the most ex-
circulating pain at times.
Through The Forum she heard OF
DIR. Gates and made some investiga-
tions among those who had been
cured, The result was that she be-
gan treatment with him. and from the

stated, was ten pounds, while the Num-

Surely this wonderful recovery
points the way to other sick ones and
makes possible the alienation OF dis
ease which has heretofore been
thought impossible.

which she started in 1890 In 1910 the
number was increased to seventeen.
but by the next apportionment 1t has
fallen to thirteen, and the original
figure Of fourteen was not regained
until 1900.
New York Passes Three.
After Virginia and Massachusetts,
Pennsylvania. with thirteen members
had the largest representation i'm the
house of 1890. New York and North
Carolina followed with ten each. North
Carolina never rose above thirteen,
but New York has gone as high as
forty, which figure was attained under
the apportionment of $780, and is the
largest representation any state ever
has had After 1880 the New York
representation fell to-, thirty-one in
1860. Since then it has been rising
gradually, until now it is thirty-seven
Pennsylvania's present number, thirty
two, is the largest ever enjoyed by that
state. From the first census to the
present Rhode Island, with her two
capitals and double name, has been
uniformly represented by two con-
gressmen. Delaware had two mem
bers during the decade of 1S1O-182O,
but never had but once since.
Minnesota began with two members
in 1860. Its representation was in
creased to three by the reapportion-
ment act of 1870, to FIVE in 1880, to
seven in 1890, and to nine in 1900
South Dakota has had two members
since the state was admitted to the
Union.
North Dakota began with one, but
was given two by the act of 1900
Wisconsin gained one in 1900. Iowas
creased since 1870. In 1870 Iowa had
nine members, six in 1860, and two in
1850.
The first apportionment made by the
constitution itself provided for one
member to every 10000 inhabitants,
with the result that at it's first ses-
sion the house contained only sixty
five members. The census of 1890 re-
suited in an increase of 105, with 3d.
900 as the basis of representation.
From thai time forth with one ex-
ception, the increase both in repre-
sentation and ratio has been steady,

REINFORCEMENT WILL BE
AN AID TO NORTH DAKOTA

Washington, Nov. 23.-North pa
kora, Minnesota, wisconsin and GER
tain other western states will obtain
increased representation in the lower
house of congress following the reap
portionment act that will be passed
following the completion and work of
the census bureau for 1910. At pres
ent Minnesota has nine members,
Wisconsin eleven and North and South
Dakota each has two. The chances
are that Minnesota, Wisconsin and
the Dakotas will be entitled to in
creased representation, dependent al
together upon the ratio of increase in
population of the states named
The present unit of representation is
193167 persons. The house now en-
braces S91 members. There is a good
deal of opposition to a material in
crease in the size of the membership.
An effort will be made to fix upon a
unit Of representation that will not
materially increase the personnel.
However, some states will oppose this
programme. To maintain the house
at approximately its present member
ship would result in the loss of rep
resentation to Maine, Iowa, Nebraska,
number of southern states and pos
sibly Kansas. The indications are that
the census Of this year will disclose a
loss of population in the states enum-
Grated, and loss of population may
mean loss of the congress district de-
termtned upon by the senate and the
house.
The constitution requires that re-
apportionment shall follow each de-
cennial enumeration of the people, and
accordingly a redistribution of seats
in the house membership takes place
soon after the conclusion of each CEN
sus.
Change Time of Reapportionmsnt.
Up to 1890 the reapportionment was
uniformly postponed until the first
session Of the congress succeeding the
enumeration, but after the eleventh
census change was made and the
apportionment bills for the eleventh
and twelfth censuses were brought in
and passed in each case at the short
session of the current congress i'm
mediately following the census. 1t will
rest with the approaching session to
determine whether it shall follow the
old or the new precedent Politics is
likely to determine the choice.
loss of membership would be by
no means a new experience to many
states. In the first apportionment
made after the census of 1890. when
the house numbered all told only los
members, Virginia was given nineteen,
almost one-flfth Of the entire member
ship. and in 1900 that number was in
creased to twenty three. Then there
was gradual falling away until 1870,
when there were only nine members
from that state. Since then there has
been gain of one from Virginia
