Of attorneys. Mr.. Ward is represent

that the company was in a most pros

which had been paid In cash, while
the assets totaled $54S.S65 and the
liabilities SS4,9l2 The plaintiff says
A was represented TO him that the
Earnings had risen from $4,000 in
1893. TO $77,00o in 1904.
These statements, Mr.. Ward al

says II was claimed that the com

In sworn statement made TO the
secretary OF state the real estate was
valued at $4,000.
In his opening address Mr.. Mon

$1,000 OF the capital had been paid in
cash. and that the good will and pat

Mr.. Graves, in his opening for the
defense. claimed that he would prove
that every statement made 10 Mr..
Ward was correct. He would also
, show, Mr.. Graves said, that many OF
the statements made by Mr.. Ward
were untrue, as at the time he says

OYYDONOR'S ANCESTOR
ROUTED AS RANK FAKE
The Tractor" a Get-Up on a
Like Principle, Was Exposed
as Far Back as 1899.
BY FINANCE.

have run across an interesting bit
OF history in connection with my in.
lvestigation of the Oxydonor fake
which indicates that the present boon
10 mankind has an ancient, II not
exactly respectable. lineage.
The direct ancestor OF the Oxydon.
or was an instrument called the
traclor- Invented by -a-eaFtain- Dr.
ierklns who fourished during the
last quarter of the eighteenth century.
| IL was an American product, but the
commercial possibilities on this side
OF the ocean were not so great then
as they are today so the inventor,
after his first successes, crossed TO
England and according TO contempor-
larry statements. took hundreds of
thousands OF pounds out OF the credu-
lcus Scotch and English peasants He
even went into the royal household
with one OF his fakes and got a testi-
monial from member OF the royal
family stunt considerably bigger
than any that DR.. Hercules Sanche
has pulled of
! The fake was exposed In Philadel-
| lhia in 1893 after a number OF years
on the market. In many respects II
resembled the Oxydonor. especially
in the claims made for il. BY some
mysterious force it was supposed 10
draw the disease especially rheuma
tism which wassa fashionable com
plant in those days. entirely out OF
the system II consisted OF a metal
tube filled with heavy mixture, but
there was no cord 10 be attached TO
the patient as there is In the modern
example
The fake was exposed by very
simple process which proved that
wooden limitations OF the tractor We're
fully as efficacious in the treatment
OF disease as the tractor itself
There is reason behind most OF
the things that happen in connection
with the fake such as the Oxydonor
and most of these reasons are imam
Cial I ran across another fact that
helps explain the testimonials IL
seems that 1t is the practice for en-
lthusiastic owners OF OXydonor instru.
Iments, who recommend II highly TO
their friends. TO rent out their
machines at s. a month which is
fairly good percentage on the invest
lment While OF course this must not
be considered as applying TO aff-those
who have publicly recommended the
fake. still IL supplies the necessary
motive TO keep those who might be
a bit skeptical about results. strictly
in line. 1t Is business proposition
When we get all the facts together
about Oxydonor II will make an ex-
hibit that will be very interesting
and perhaps II will help TO open the
eyes OF the victims OF the various
sorts of taking and quackery that are
quilting the public, through dishonest
advertising, out OF hard-earned
| money
