The story OF how the Known Doc
tors, those medical specialists have dis
tinguished themselves and saved a
human life, how they have again
proven that the we'll trained brain of
the skilled specialists Is superior to
the knife of a surgeon in fighting dis
ease is best told by the following let

l feel 1t Is my duty to publicly an
nounce that for the past ten years l
have suffered from stomach and bowel
trouble, having tried many different
doctors and patent medicines but with
out much benefit and certainly no
cure. Was sick and tired out in fact
was almost physical and nervous
wreck. AS last resort my friends
persuaded me to consult the Known
Doctors which I did on January IL,
1913. Ga
They carefully examined me
and properly diagnosed my case and
assured me that there was still hopes
for me- I will admit that was some
what skeptical as l had about given
up all hopes Of ever being cured, but
seemed so fair that decided that at
least give them a trial and began
their treatment and now after only
one months treatment l am about
we'll.
Appetite Is good, sleep we'll, and
have gained in weight and fast on the
road to recovery. I most heartily and
cheerfully recommend the Known Doc
tors to all Of my sick and suffering
friends.

All callers are examined by these
specialists free Of charge, many are
rejected as incurable, as 1t is the I'M
varied rule of the Known Doctors to
accept no incurable cases for treat
ment, but those who are accepted for
treatment are we'll repaid for the
trouble and expense Of coming to their
institute, for they know that they are
sure Of relief, when once their case Is
accepted by the Known Doctors.

gsawrenceburg, Ind, March 29.-- The south leyee at Lawrenceburg broke at 2:05 this afternoon. A wall of water poured through the open ing and went raging through the center of the town, tearing up all before it.
 Houses were crushed like egg. shells and the wreckage was carried four miles along the Miami bottoms to the i'll on the main line of the Big Four.
 The break came when it was least expected but the residents were warned yesterday to leave town and no lives were lost.

Cox tells me that he thinks mat ters are in a satisfactory condition in Columbus; that he has ample inn mediate supply of medicines and other necessities and that much of each is on the way. The weather is very fine and there does not seem to be any cause of apprehension or further floods in the vicinity of Day ton.1
 Fifteen thousand persons subsist- cd today on rations given out under direction of the relief committee. Ten thousand of these, it is estimated were in their homes and food was carried to them in boats and automo- piles.
 About five thousand are being car ed for at the relief stations. This shows marked reduction in the number of persons being publicly fed.
 The relief committee has made no attempt to keep record of the num- Der of rations sent out. There is plenty of food and it is being placed in baskets in lots to serve five per sons for two days. Over candles given out. with the food, the people are cooking coffee, but the other food is eaten cold. There is no gas and very little coal.
 The relief stations have been tax ed to capacity now for the flood has sabsided enough for people to leave their homes. Homes of persons more fortunate have been thrown open to those whose houses have been swept away or destroyed, Homes usually housing four or five persons i'll many instances now are sheltering from 20 to 30
 Beginning early today the relief committee sent out tons of food foI, these people. Some were found in the more remote sections who had not tasted food since Tuesday, but comparatively these cases were few.
 pr. Wm. Colby Fucker, assistant surgeon general of the United States Public Health Service, who came here from Washington at the direc- ton of the secretary of the treasury with Surgeon General Rupert Blue, tonight gave the Associated Press the following outline of the sanitary conditions existing in the city:
 "A survey of conditions in Dayton today shows that the sanitary situ- ation is not so bad as was at first thought. Citizens have been warn ed to boil all drinking water and to bury refuse. City water is now flowing untler twenty pound pres sure. Sewers in some sections are again in operation The city ex- expects to have others working to- morrow.
 "The city has been divided into sixteen sanitary districts and tonight physicians who have been sworn in as district sanitary officers are be- ing instructed as to their precise du- ties as heads of these districts"
 Blue and Rucker go to Hamilton tomorrow to observe the situation there.
