PLASTER DOCTOR" QUIzzED
JOHN TILL CURED DISEASE WITH
"BEANS OF CHRIST"
Is Defending His Methods in $1,000
Damage Suit in
St. Paul

st. Paul, March 6.r-"Beans of Christ
is my remedy" said John Till, of Star
Prairie, near New Richmond, Wis,
known widely as the PLASTER doctor,
as he sat in the witness chair in Judge
Hallam's court, st. Paul. Among other
things he told OF the remedies, external
and internal, he applied for remuner-
alton, measured by the goodwill of
those who applied to him.
The plaintiff was Fred Stein, a cook
at the Commercial Club, Minneapolis,
who claimed that the plaster doctors
had SO raVaged his body that he was
entitled to damages of $63,000
For catarrh Till said he made use
of oil of rosemary and tincture of
aloes; for kidney troubles, turpentine,
six drops in spoonful of sugar; for
stomach troubles, mixture of tine
ture of aloes and stomach bitters.
His famous plasters, he said, were
blended of one part olive oil, three
parts red coal oil. and two parts Bern
stein oil. In the plaster he also used
a salve from boiled croton beans,
which he called beans of Christ"
Till said that when he lived at AL
mena, Wis, patients came to him to
the number of about 5000 a month.
At Somerset Wis, the pilgrims num-
bered about 5000 month, and at
New Richmond about | 800 a month
with free will gifts which averaged
up to April, 1910, 80 cents a visitor.
He denied the allegations of the com
plant that he claimed supernatural
powers, or that he kept a sanitorium
and advertised in any manner.
Expert medical testimony, it was
stated, is forthcoming on behalf of
the defendant from Dr. George B.
Frankforter of the University of Min
nesota, Dr. Justus Ohage, and DR..
Quinn, and on behalf OF the plaintiff
from Dr. c. Nj. and Dr.. j. M. Kistler
of Minneapolis who treated Stein. The
case OF Thomas ]. Flaherty, also of
Minnea polls, against Mr.. Till for dam,
ages Of 100000 is pending.

MAYORS DISCUSS
WATER ROUTE
NORTHWEST. TO HUDSON BAY EY
BOAT, SLOGAN OF GRAND
FORKS SESSION.
JAS. J. HILL INTER ESTET
Aim to Shorten Distance in Trans
porting to Liverpool by
One Thousand
Miles.

Grand Forks, March 6.-Mayors OF
Red River Valley cities located in Min
nesota, North Dakota and in the prov
ince of Manitoba, held a conference
in this city, effecting the organization
of Red River to the Hudson Bay
Navigation Association" the purpose
of which will be to promote the move
ment looking to the establishment of
a through waterway from the plains
of the great northwest to Liverpool.
Mayor R. D. Waugh of Winnipeg,
the principal speaker at the confer
ence, and at a banquet given by the
Grand Forks Commercial club, de-
clared that the time was not far dis
tant when James J. Hill, who already
recognizes the commanding position
of the Hudson Bay as an outlet to the
grain markets of the world, would
have railroad from Winnipeg to Fort
Nelson and which would furnish di-
rect line between the American north
west and England that would be 1000
miles shorter than the present route
through TIE bItdL lAdhSo anu Ny wa!
of New York
Waterway improvement, the Winni-
peg mayor contends, is but another
step in the development which is to
come The Canadian government, by
the money already expended in the
Red River, has put its stamp of in
dorsement upon the project, and he
did not doubt but what the Dominion
would make further improvements
which would finally establish direct
water route from Winnipeg to Hudson
Bay by way Of the Red River, Lake
Winnipeg and the Nelson river.
He submitted figures showing that,
on account of the difference in lat
itude, the northern route is 900 miles
shorter than the present route, and
that instead of requiring six weeks
to ship grain from Grand Forks, it
would require only two weeks.
The association organized by elect
ing Mayor Waugh, president; Mayor
P. N. Larson Of Crookston, vice presi-
dent for Minnesota, and NJ F. Muir
ply of Grand Forks for North Da-
kota. One o. it's principal movements
will be the holding of a navigation
congress next June, very probably at
Winnipeg.

NERVOUS HEADACHE
And Nurbness in the Hands and
Arms.
This Iowa Woman Was in Serious
Condition and Her Cure
Will Interest Many.

A cure OF unusual interest and i'm
portance is related by Mrs. j. III. Nor
gan, Of Correctionville, Iowa. After
being a hopeless sufferer from sick
headaches, she is now entirely free
from attacks She tells of her cure
by Dr. Williams Pink Pills, as follows:
Some years ago | was in a terribly
nervous and rundown condition and
suffered greatly from nervous head
aches. was treated for three months
by a specialist in Chicago, who advised
NE to wear glasses, but he did not
help me My head seemed as though it
would burst, and / had frequent dizzy
spells was in despair of getting
We'll until I read about Dr. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People and began
taking them A few boxes cured me
and since then | have used them as q
family medicine.
Before the birth Of my last child
suffered untold agony with pain and
numbness in my hands and arms up to
the shoulders. My hands were SO
swollen and the muscles so sore that
could hardly dress myself. For a time
| could not close my left hand. During
the day if I kept moving the pain did
not seem to be so bad, but my hands
were always numb. / again used DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
and found them good for this trouble
also, as they entirely relieved me"
Unless properly treated sick head
ache is q disease of many years dura-
ton, as it occurs before the twentieth
year in twothirds Of the cases and re-
ours with more or less regularity until
the fiftieth year or later. It is usually
hereditary and is probably directly
caused by a defect in the process
which changes the food we eat into
blood Most sufferers are troubled
with obstinate constipation which
makes it necessary to use a laxative.
An ideal combination treatment is
Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale Peo-
pie and the new laxative pills, Pink
lets. This treatment is fully described
in a little booklet. The Treatment Of
Sick Headache" which is free on re-
quest, together with sample OF
Pink1ots. the little laxative pills.
DR. Williams Pink Pills are for sale
at all druggists, or will be mailed to
any address, postpaid, on receipt Of
price. SO cents per box; six boxes for
$3.50, by the Dr. Williams Medicine
Company, Schenectady, \. Z.
