MUNYON'S WORK
TALK OF CITY
Big SUCCESS SHOWN BY THE
NUMBER OF CALLERS.
Local Man Tells San Francisco Head
quarters of Remarkable Relief
From Rheumatism.

The apparent success which Professor
James M. Munyon, the world-famous
health authority, has been meeting in
san Francisco has started much dis
cussion. The continuous stream of
callers has kept DIR. Munyon's expert
representatives busy every day for
several weeks at the main store of the
Owl Drug Company, San Francisco,
where he has established headquarters
for meeting the people.
Munyon' s following seems to be
enormous. Those who believe in his
theories seem to think he possesses the
most marvellous powers for the heal
ing of all sorts of diseases. Munyon,
himself, laughs at this. He says;
"The hundreds of cures which you
are hearing about every day in San
Francisco are not in any way due to
my personal skill. 1t is my remedies,
which represent the combined brains
of the greatest medical specialists
science has ever known, that is doing
the work. / have paid thousands of
dollars for a single formula and the
exclusive right to manufacture it. l
have paid tens of thousands of dollars
for others of my various forms of
treatment. That is why 1 get such
remarkable results. 1 have simply
bought the best products of the best
brains in the world and placed this
knowledge within the reach of the
general public"
Among Munyon S callers yesterday
were many who were enthusiastic in
their praise of the man. One of these
said: ''For six years 1 suffered from
rheumatism. My arms and legs were
afflicted so badly that L could hardly
work, and / could not raise my arm to
my head. The pain was most severe
in the back, however, and 1 was in
perfect torture. L tried in many
ways to get cured, or even to secure
temporary relief, but nothing seemed
TO help me until L was persuaded by
Il friend to try Munyon IS Uric Acid
course. 1t was the most marvelously
acting remedy 1 ever saw, within g
week the pain had most gone and in
side of a month 1 considered myself
entirely cured I can now go out il
the worst weather-cold, or wet o.
anything else, and have not felt any
suspicion of a return of the disease.
ct think that every person who hal
rheumatism and does not take thu
Uric Acid course is making a grea
mistake

FOR
CAREY ACT LANDS
Idaho Establishes One to Help the
Land Board With Vast Amount
of Work.

Boise, Idaho.-The state land board
has created a Carey act department and
placed Senator b. p. Shawhan at its
head.
In speaking of the creation of this
department State Auditor s. d. Tay-
lor says:
"The establishment of a Carey act
department is, in my judgment, one of
the most important steps taken by the
present land board. Idaho has 5000, 900
acres of Carey act lands, representing
investments of between $75,OOO,O0O and
$10O,OOO,0OO, and affecting many thou
sands of settlers. 1t must be evident
that the supervision of this work in
wolves a vast amount of detail.
Heretofore the executive officers OF
the state, constituting the state land
board, have been expected to take on
the burden of all this detailed work, il
addition to their regular duties. This
has been a physical impossibility, anC
has resulted in many mistakes being
made and costly oversights, while the
settlers living on the tracts have mo-
yet had the attention that they SHOULD
have.
FThis status of affairs has led to tn,
suggestion of Carey act commission
The legislature refused to create
Carey act commission, but the state LAM
board has evolved a plan much NOR
simple than that of a commission, les
expensive and which has practically al
of its advantages.
"Under the new plan all business in
tended for the consideration of til
state land board will be given matur
consideration by the Carey act depart
ment before the land board is require
to pass upon the subject"
