RESPONDED TO.

Princeton, n. j., Nov. 7.-Respond-
ing to telegram from the democratic

Il deeply appreciate your telegram,

my warm congratulations on the part
you have played in the organization
and conduct of a campaign fought out
upon essential issues.
"a great cause has triumphed.
Every democrat, every true progress

lend his full force and enthusiasm to

the establishment of the peoples
right, so that justice and progress
may go hand in hand
This was Governor Wilson's first

ROOSEVELT LAYS
PLANS FOR 1916

That Theodore Roosevelt expects to
retain the leadership of the third party
was evidenced by one of the first ut.
terances after his defeat for the presi-
dency. Under the caption Roosevelt
sees bright future" the Chicago Trib.
une yesterday carried the following
story:
Ex-President Roosecelt telephoned
to friends in the Union league club
last night stating that he had prac-
tically annihilated the republican
party and that the progressive party
would be the party Of the future and
be in control of the national commit
tee and of the national convention In
1915.
Also Col. Roosevelt stated in these
messages that the progressives would
be in control in New York SKATE and
would control the state convention of
1914.

A LOAN FUND
FOR YOUNG WOMEN

Des Moines, Nov. IA memorial
loan fund for the benefit Of girls who
get sick or out Of work has been
created by the board of the business
women's home. Each member of the
board which is composed Of promi.
nent women of the city. contributed
something to the loan fund. It often
happens that girl who is working on
small wages loses her place or is taken
sick. She then falls an easy prey to
loan shark bureaus and worse evils. It
is to meet these conditions that the
loan fund has been created. A new
laundry and heating plant has re-
Gently been installed at the home.

A Talk for You

Possibly you have given up hope OF
being cured after treating with
several doctors. Chronic diseases
are deep rooted according to time of
development. Because you haven't
been cured is no good reason why
you can't be cured. The longer a
chronic ailment continues the harder
It becomes to treat. I don't claim to
cure every disease, because I can't
do 1t. However, do say have cured
many hard cases of what apparently
we're incurable diseases. My IS years
Of medical experience has been en-
tirely devoted to the treating Of
chronic diseases of every kind. Now
If you wish to call on me, will tell
you candidly what can be done for
you. Never give up, but give mo the
chance of at least examining your
disease and hear what have to say.

Bear Meat for Nevada.

Nevada, Nov. 7.-Few towns IN
Iowa will furnish the people with
homegrown bear meat as will Ne.
vada. Some months ago while out in
California, Gene Parker, farmer iv-
ing south Of this city, brought home
a couple of bear cubs which he kept
out on the farm until they became
large enough to be dangerous and a
menace to the chickens and livestock
which came within their reach. A
week ago he sold them to a local meat
man, who confined them In q large
iron cage in the rear Of his shop ana
is now engaged in feeding them for
the holiday market. They are noun
tain bears and quite curiosity to
the younger children. One now weighs
about $50 and the other slightly less.

There's a Reason

why you should try Chiropractic spinal
adjustments combined with Electro
Vibro Massage for all chronic and
nervous troubles. Results are obtained
for the following reasons:
l.. Nerves regulate and control every
action and function OF the body.
2. Displacement Of vertebrae causes
pressure on nerves.
8. Pressure on nerves causes ab-
normal function in the part supplied
by said nerve.
This causes disease.
We remove the cause.
