Questions Frequently

l. How should /, dress for
treatment?
A. The men only remove
their coats and vests; wome n
can be treated in the clothing
they wear to the office, after
removing their corsets, though
a kimona is generally worn in
preference to a waist and skirt.
2 Is the treatment severe?
A. 1t is not. 1t is regulated
to the condition of the patient.
Extreme cases are treated with
extreme care; and they invari-
ably express surprise that the
treatment is stood so we'll and
never fear the next treatment.
3. How long does a treatment
last?
A. Variable. Average about
twenty minutes.
4 How many treatments do l
need?
A Each case is a law unto
itself; some acute cases are
cured in two or three treat
ments, as are some chronic
cases. Most depends upon the
patient for some respond more
readily than others. Very few
cases fail to show improvement
the first week. The average
invalid should not expect a
cure in less than a month or
six weeks treatment. Some
can only be patched up.
5 Are the results perman-
ami?
A If the roof Of your home
has to be renewed, you can do
much to make it last longer, if
it is repaired we'll your house
may soon need painting. Pa
tients tell US their friends
question the value of O,teo-
plthy for them when they see
they have to take treatment
after they had been cured for
a year or two. 1t is as a rule,
other troubles which require
RI turn to treatment. Though
we do not promise freedom
fro all symptoms, ever after
taking treatment.
6. Are treatments expense, e:
A. Those who take them tell
US they find they are the cheap,

according to the case. Most OF
oar patients need a term 81

Is treatments for 500. Single
treatments vary in price ac-
corolLg to the case, from So, to
81. The average single treat
ment is $1.5O.
z. How often will | neee
treatment?
A. Generally treatment i.
given two or three times week
ly; more frequently if patient
is in severe pain. Steady gai1
is made though slower wher
they take but one each weel
as some do who have to com,
from Pisgah, Orson, Littl'
Sioux, Dunlap, Moorhead, Ne
braska, or distant points
These often find it pays to sta,

treatment more often, than ont

If possible to do so it pays tt

Monroe Marriage Simple.
Mrs Monroe was a city bred woman.
She had been brought up in the exclu-

not approve of the Virginia style. So
the wedding Of her Youngest daughter
was the reverse of a grand affair.
The circular or blue room was cho-
sen for the wedding, and the Rev. DR..
Hawley of st. Johns church perform
ed the ceremony, which took place at
noon.
The fourth marriage celebrated in
the presidents house was that Of John

a niece of Mrs. Adams, and her broth.

Andrew Jackson's administration
succeeded that of John Quincy Adams.

friends. He practically lived in the
