THERE ARE OTHERS. FRED,

Editor Mason of the La Juuta
Tribune says:
The Tribune claims the LARGEST secret
circulation ON earth. In the last month
We have tried to borrow the paper from
known subscrib-rs about twenty times.

peatedly declared that he would not have

with accent on the etc. Sometimes, per-
haps, q published list Of these secret
friends would be both amusing and slim
ulatins to would-be advertisers as show
ind how much LARGER our circulation is

just SO, Brother Mason, but we
know of one other newspaper iu a
similar position, but our extreme
modesty would not allow us to di-
vulge its name for a cool million.

The remarkable success of
those talented physicians In the

has aroused much enthusiasm
in the Northwest.
This 10 said to be and NO doubt is true,
one Of the most able specialists ortani.
cations Of its kind in this section of the
country, and must be q successful one
from the many food results they ere
Gettinf.
The United Doctors, licensed by the
state Of Colorado for the treatment Of de.
formities and nervous and chronic dis.

number that have fotten together for the
treatment of chronic and nervous dis.
eases. Not to be understood that they
treat all diseases that the human body is
heir to. They mean to be very careful
in selecting and taking cases, a. they
want food results, which means food re.
turns in the way Of patients recommend.
inS them to others.
They estimate that over eighty per
cent Of the patients now coming to them
come from recommendation Of those
they have treated.
They do not treat any acute diseases
whatever, their time and attention beint
devoted to such diseases as follows:
Diseases Of the stomach, intestines,
liver, blood, Skin, nerves, heart, spleen,
kidneys or bladder, rheumatism, sciatica,
diabetes, bedwettinf, leg ulcers, weak
lungs and those afflicted with lonf stand
inf, desp.seated chronic diseases that
have badled the skill Of the family physi.
clan, should not fail to call.
According to their system no more op.
erations for appendicitis, fall stones, tu.
mors or Soiter. They were amonf the
first in America to earn the name of

TRANSFER COMPANIES
INCREASED FACILITIES

way OF working out This kind of n
twentieth century reformation in the
matter OF travel. but the agencies that
have done vastly more than the rail-
ways along this line are the city
transfer companies.
Every live and widc-awakc city has
lis transfer line that meets all OF the
requirements necessary 10 make world

In the land has a better or more cm-
Client transfer company than has
Richmond. The Richmond Transfer
Company is one of the finest assets
Greater Richmond has, and this com
pany has done as much. maybe more
than any other one concern TO advcr-
tisc Richmond and make il great along
bigger city lines.
Built From the Ground Up.
In ttsNGuict way this company let's
all the world know that there Is, such
place as Richmond. In its way It
adrertises Richmond all over the world,
and In SO doing Il ;,dvertises Itself as
one of the big things that helps to
make Richmond great. For very many
years the Richmond Transfer Com
pany was willing enough to hold itself
down to the then local environment
but in these latter days of world wide
reaching the Transfer Company has
become a little world wide in It's CT
forts, and Richmond is the gamer by
this effort. ,'{
Everybody in Richmond knows that
for many years past tho Transfer Com
panY has been a great convenience in
local way, but the people have not
watched as they might have done the
growth of this enterprise and how 1t
has kept up with modern improve
ments from the very beginning. The
time was when passengers and bag
gage were transferred III Richmond
bS mule power. and the transferring
was confined TO strictly local grounds.
Now all of this has changed, and to-
day by the better work of the Rich
rnond Transfer Company the mattcr OF
moving through the whole world has
become matter of no more concern
than there used TO nc concerning the
moving from one street TO another.
From the slow mule the Transfer Com
pany came to the more rapid horse.
and then they utilized the street cars.
