President
of the
Associated Doctors
Institute
DIR. C. c. A1TKEN

Associated Doctors Institute will he at
the Strother Hotel in Cresco for ohe
day only only Tuesday, January 2S.h,
when he will receive and examine pat
tents.
The Associated Doctors are the spec
ialists whose many wonderful cures
have caused comment by the press,
pulpit and public, not only in Iowa but
all over the country. These specialists
have founded a new school of medicine
which embarces all the good points of
all the old schools and leaves out the
bad They use allupathic drugs when
they ar. needed, they use homeopathic
drugs when they are neened, and Elec-
trio treatment where they are needed,
and in some cases they use combina-
ton of Electric treatments with Honl-
eopathic or Allopathic drugs in the
same case. The associated Doctors
have united the various schools ard
''isl,s" of medicine 10 form a perfect
system Of curing disease.
The object of the Associated Doctors
in visiting this community is to secure
a few cases, but they want these cases
to be only the most difficult ones. They
know that if they cure few OF the
worst cases here, that others will hear
of it and go to one Of their institutes
for treatment. A cured patient is
their best advertisement.
While the doctor is at the Strother
hote! for this one day visit on January
2Sth, he will examine all cases free of
charge, but will accept only durable
cases for treatment, as it would not be
a good advertisement to treat any case
unless they were sure Of a cure. To
the cases selected for treatment spec
ial reduced price will be ;made.
The diseases treated by the Associa-
ted Doctors are diseases of0the n,rv.
blood, skin, heart, stomac', kitn 'ys
and liver, including rheumatism, para
Iysis, neuralgia, loss of nerve force.
goitre, constipation, catarrh, epilepsy.
dyspepsia. indigestion, piles, tistuI
weak hack. bloating, dropsy. eczema,
scrofula and diseases of women and
diseases of men and all diseases of the
eye, ear, nose and throat.
The daily papers throughout the coun-
try are continually publishing reports
of the wonderful cures that have been
made by the Associated Doctors.
While the Associated Doctors will
not accept any incurable cases for treat
ment, no one should give up hope simp-
ly because other doctors have failed to
help them. 1t must be remembered
that this new system of medicine has
quickly cured many cases which could
not even be helped by other doctors or
medicines.
The Associated Doctors treatment
is all home treatment go that frequent
visits to the office are not necessary.
This treatment may be used in any
home, anywhere, without necessary
inconvenience, publicity or annoyance
and without OBTAINING the patient from
his or her usual occupation.
This wonderful new system of treat
ment is what these noted doctors are
bringing to Cresco. He will be here
on Tuesday, January 2Sth.

so many. In fact, they said they

Rock county is profting financially
as well as morally through the diligent
enforcement of the labor commitment
law by the sheriff. He has turned over
TO the county treasurer, earnings of
prisoners without dependents, for the
past three months, the sum of $3.50. %.
During this time the sheriff has also
paid out to the dependents upon prison
ers for support more than $500. Had
these men been committed to Jail under
the old law the county would have been
obliged to assist in the support of the
families of most of them and all would
have suffered some hardships. If the
wages Of the prisoners continue at the
same ratio throughout the year they
will run over 81, 900.

been formed to protect the farmers
against the acts of vandalism and tres
pass committed by irresponsible hold

much simpler and easier for the two
organizations to get together instead
of fighting each other, and agree on
what regulations are necessary to do
away with the evils complained of.
Legislation demanded by such power
full organizations as these two promise
to be would be granted by the Legisla-
ture without question. The need of
better regulation of the hu, ting privi-
