Remarkable Success of These Talent
ed Physicians in the Treatment
of Chronic Diseases.
Offer their Services Free of Charge
for the Last Time

The United Doctors, licensed by the
State of Wisconsin for the treatment
of deformities and all nervous and
chronic diseases of men, women and
children, offer to all who call on this
| trip, consultation, examination, advice
free, making no charge whatever, ex-
cept the actual cost of medicine. All
| that is asked in return for these val
liable services is that every person
treated will state the result obtained
to their friends and thus prove to the
sick and afflicted in every city and To-
cality, that at last treatments have
been discovered that are reasonably
sure and certain in their effect.
| These doctors are considered by
many former patients among America s
leading stomach and nerve specialists
and are experts in the treatment of
chronic diseases and so great and won
derful have been their results that in
many cases it is hard indeed 10 find the
dividing line between skill and miracle.
Diseases of the stomach, intestines,
| liver, blood, skin, nerves, heart, spleen,
kidneys, or bladder, rheumatism, seiat-
| lea, diabetes, bedwetting, leg ulcers,
weak lungs and those afflicted with
| long-standing, deep-seated, chronic dis
eases, that have baffled the skill of the
family physicians, should not fail to
call
According to their system no more
operations for appendicitis, gall stones,
| tumors, goiter, piles, etc. By their
method these diseases are treated with
out operation or hypodermic injection.
They were among the first in Amer
lea to earn the name of "Bloodlsss
Surgeons" by doing away with the
knife, with blood and with all pain in
the successful treatment of these dan
gerous diseases.
If you have kidney or bladder trou-
bles bring a two ounce bottle of your
urine for chemical analysis and micro
scopic examination.
Deafness often has been cured in
sixty days.
No matter what your aiIment may
be, no matter what others may have
told you, no matter what experience
you may have had with other physi-
clans, it will be to your advantage to
see them at once. Haveit forever set
tied in your mind. IL your case is, in
durable they will give you such advice
as may relieve and stay the disease.
Do not put off this duty you owe your
self or friends or relatives who are
suffering because of your sickness, as
visit at this time may help you.
Worn-out and rundown men or
women, no matter what your ailment,
consult them upon this visit. 1t costs
you nothing.
Remember, this last offer is for this
visit only.
Married ladies must come with their
husbands and minors with their par
ents.

STATE AID TO
 HIGH SCHOOLS

Little Rock, May 28.-Secre- tary B. W. Torreyson, of the State Board of Education, is preparing to make the final pay ment of the State aid to the High schools of the State. There will be about $2O,00O to be dis tributed. Not more than three or four of the 145 schools which received aid last year will fail to make a showing of compliance with the requirements of the law.
 Under the terms of the law. all unexpended balances in the State Aid Fund on May 30 will be turned back into the com mon school fund, and there will this year be a balance of about S2, 700 to be so transferred.
 The last payment of money for State aid was made dependent upon the school meeting the re. quirements for the equipment of a library, at a minimum cost of S75, and to provide for a ref erence library, to cost at least 1925. Lists of apparatus and books are required to be sent to the secretary of the board for approval.
 Greatly increased efficiency is expected from the State aided High schools next year.

Thought He Liked FIattery.

One of the wittiest occupants of the judicial bench in England is Judge Rentoul, the North-country Irishman, who pyesides at the famous court, known as Old Bailey. The judge has just been telling another good story against himself. Once he went on political mission to Wales, to tell the voters what to do. He spoke first, and in English. All the subse- quent speakers, however, used Welsh as the medium of their thoughts. As a matter of policy he applauded strongly whenever there was a clap among the audience. although he could not understand single word that was said. 'I learned afterwards" |" said Judge Rentoul. that every time I applauded a speaker it was when he had paid strong personal compli- ment, either to myself or to my speech"

MIXED FEED STUFF
 INSPECTION LAW

Little Rock, May 28.-T h e Grain Committee of the Board of Trade is preparing to make a test case, to be carried to the Supreme Court, on the rulings made by Commissioner John H.

 The law is for the manufac- turer and the dealer and for the protection of the consumer. 1t
 is enforced according to the opinion of a former Attorney General. But I am anxious to see the questions at issue set tied, and if you will get up a brief referring to these issues and to the laws in other States, 1 will be glad to ask the Attorney General for his opinion. This law protects Arkansas m'llers by shutting out short weight com. petitors from other States. I want to conduct my department to the best advantage of manu- lecturers and dealers, and want to get together with them. If we can't agree, we can agree to disagree. If the law is wrong let us go to the root of it. Per. sonally 1 think it ought to be amended. We don't desire to needlessly prosecute anybody"

once takes hold of the workers there
