ONE SEEDING GROWS
TWO CROPS OF OATS

Columbus, N NJ, Dec. Isl A
town which showed a very unusual
growth. The field from which the
roots were taken was planted in oats
last spring and the crop harvested when
ripe. From the stubble left on the
field, growth started up and a second
crop matured. This was not harvested
although the grains seemed to be per-
fectly formed, and from the roots there
is another growth of green shoots.
Had the land geen irrigated after the
first crop was gathered the second
crop would probably have been
worth harvesting and the latter growth
would have made good fall and winter
naSturaga.

Great Chronic Disease
Specialist.


Below VIII be found g letter from
Philip J. Ritter, who had been a'sufferer
from Epilepsy for wears. Mr.. Ritter. ike
many others, had tried several doctors.
but got no relief Many times he had
heard of the cures DR.. G. A Hinton, the
chronic disease specialist, had made. and
especially the cure of a prominent stock
man who lived in Nebraska, and had
been afflicted in about the same way as
he was. He decided to at least take ad-
vantage Of the liberal offer that DR.. Hin
ton made of a free examination. after
which he placed his case in the Doctors
hands for treatment. The results of the
treatment are shown in MI Ritter's let
ter, written years later.

by Dr. G. A. Hinton. Ny business rela-
tons with DR.. Hinton have been of the
most pleasant nature, and I consider him
perfectly honorable in all his business as
well as professional relations.

so severe and frequent that he was about
TO lose his mind, these terrible spells
coming on every few days, he could not
attend to his business and had to be-
come dependent upon his family.
Mr.. Ritter took this treatment fifteen
years AGO and up to the present time
has never had an attack of his old
trouble and never viii. DR.. Hinton has
successfully treated hundreds of cases Of
Epilepsy and can give positive assurance
that they never VIII have another attack
of this terrible disease after taking a
full course of his remedy. 1t would take
more space than we are allowed to tell
in detail how this wonderful physician
worked and experimental for many years
before he was able to proclaim to the
world that he had perfected this wonder
full treatment for this dreaded of al
diseases.
a DR.. Hinton treats with equal success
Cancer and blood diseases whether IN
herited or contracted. His six large
office rooms are crowded from morning
