Free Consultation to all.

The Associated Doctors are helping
people who have gone astray from the
way of health, it matters not what the
trouble is.
They have made a special study of
chronic troubles. There are several
lines OF work to emphasize for they do
so much OF this work as troubles of
eye, ear, nose and throat, like
catarrh, enlarged, tonsils, adnoids
deafness, also stomach and intestinal
troubles and liver, kidney and
bladder complaints, causing rheuma-
tism, skin diseases, etc. Then too
lung and heart cases, as asthma, con-
sumption, weakness, dizziness, swell
ling of feet, shortness of breath,
coughs, etc. They have hundreds of
cases people call "private troubles"
Treating fat folks to reduce weight,
they could give list of many who
we're relieved of 20 to 100 pounds of
excess baggage.
linen very special to many sufferers
they treat piles, goitre, chronic ap-
pendicitis, gall stones, etc., without
the knife.
Mental and nervous diseases and
bed wetting should not be forgotten.
In spite of many spectacle peddlers
they are fitting good many eyes for
glasses.
They use their own drugs, chemicals
and compounds and everything of
known value. If you need help for
any trouble come and see them. At
least have talk with the doctor re-
garding your trouble for which there
will be NO CHARGE.
Mr.. James Ripp, Fergus Falls,
says: "You have done more than I
expected, my dizziness, shortness of
breath, weakness, bloating have left
me, and I pitched in the field which 1
would never have believed I could
again do"
Mrs. A. E. Parks, GAINESVILLE,
MIMI, says: 81 had almost lost
hope of ever. receiving help for my
rheumatism, having spent much time
and money for doctors, mud baths
and electricity, etc., but your treat
ment has entirely cured me and
certainly will recommend you to
everyone for your good work."

Could Not Do Without Him.

Henry Austin was slow. His work
was always behind that of the neigh
boring farmers, although he always
got it done eventually. He had been
counting Jennie Blake for five years,
and at last they were to be married at
her home in the Stumpfeld district,
two miles from his farm. On the even
ing on which the event was to take
place his neighbors, the Fosters, drove
by his house on their way to the we'd
ding. Henry was just going to the
barn with his milking pail. Mr.. Fos-
ter shouted: "Where are you, Henry

It is fact not generally known that
Lord Kitchener once fought as pri-

truth, however, and among those who
are to receive the new French wa

soldier, who at present is the diplo-

Pulling Power of Men and Animals.

Interesting tests were recently made
to determine the respective pulling
power of horses, men and elephants.
Two horses weighing 1000 pounds
each together pulled $3.50 pounds, or
$50 pounds more than their combined
weight. One elephant weighing $4,000
pounds pulled $3.50 pounds, or $3.50
pounds less than its weight. Fifty
men. aggregating $500 pounds in
weight, pulled $3.50 pounds, or just as
much as the single elephant; but. like
the horses, they pulled more than their
own weight. One hundred men pulled
10000 pounds.

PRESERVE WILD TURKEYS
Federal Authorities to "Plant

Reservations
. o o o o o o o o 90 = o o o 1


Special to the Daily Leader.
Oklahoma City, Okla, Dec r.
Believing that wild turkey will soon
become extinct under the present con-
ditions, the United States department
OF agriculture, through the game pres
ervaticn division, will take steps to
propagate the bird on the national
game preserves. Charles r Brewster
OF the department arrived from Wash
ington this week, and Is arranging
with State Game Warden Doolin to
trap number of birds for placement
in the Wichita reserve near Cache,
Okla The department will probab-
ly go to Atoka countys mountain dis
trict for the specimens.
Wild turkey is not what one might
term a companionable bird They do
not mate in the sense that doves do.
nei.ner do they covey as do quail,
but in the solitude of the thicket or
forest, lay their nests, and live a sort
of hermit life. Until the broods be-
come numerous, it is said, the tur-
key will not leave the environs of a
friendly place. AS soon as the bird
reaches the conclusion that it is in
protected place it has no desire to
leave providing the area is large
enough to satisfy the rowing instinct,
