NATUREOPATHIC
 DOCTORS New and Marvellous Method of Treatment Cures
 Hundreds.
THEY ARE MEETING WITH REMARKABLE
 SUCCESS.

The Natureopathic doctors produce quicker and more permanent results
 than can be attributed to any other
 system. Their offices at 162 Main St.,
 Rooms 6, 7, 10, II, are filled with | patrons who give convincing proof of
 the efficacy of their rational and 1 modern treatments.
 Natureopathy, as taught at The l Blumer College, includes all agencies, | methods, systems, regimes and ideals l of natural origin and divine sanction
 whereby human health can be en- hanced and maintained. pr. Blumer,
 the founder of the Natureopathic Col l lege in Hartford, declares that all
 methods incorporated in Natureopathy are based upon scientific privileges ! scientifically explained and demon- strated. The Natureopath is an edu- l cated physician and has different methods at his command to meet con- ditions as indicated in each individual case.
 In some cases the educated Nature opath uses one or several methods to gain the desired results. The Natureopaths have convinced hundreds of the real efficacy of nat ural healing, which simply means the curing of ailments and diseases with out the use of drugs or the surgeons knife and is now as firmly established and as widely admitted as the law Of gravitation.
 They are making some wonderful cures of rheumatism, dyspepsia, ca tarrh paralysis and all forms of nerv- ous diseases and quite a number of rheumatic and paralytic sufferers have been treated by the Natureopathic
 
 suits obtained. A lady suffering from violent attacks of dyspepsia, insomnia and extreme nervous prostration, says their power to relieve is simply mar velous, that people are virtually made over and changed from miserable suf- ferings to sound health, from a low vitality to vigorous men, women and children.
 Just recently quite number of cases have been discharged, cured of various ailments, many of which were considered as hopeless by other phy- sicians.
 Cures made by them are not simply patched up by some outside material means but by the enforcement of na- ture's laws within the body, and the results are positively permanent and lasting.
 In this progressive age of the world it is very few of the advance thought people who have not made at least some invo stigation of Natureopathy and that this science of treating dis eases has been found beneficial and successful a restorative agent is shown by the fact that its enthusias stic supporters, advocates and Natureo- pathic practitioners are increasing in numbers and are now to be found everywhere.
 The results of this active interest

| tANTI-TOXIN FOR
 ARMIES OF EUROPE
1000 Horses in or Near New York Used to Produce Serum, Declares
 pr. Park.

New York, Nov. 9.-One thousand horses in or near New York city are being used to produce tetanus anti toxin for the armies of Europe, ac- cording to all estimate by Dr. Will liam H. Park, head of the city's bac- teriological laboratories When the war began the board of health, from humanitarian motives, went into the business of making this serum, but now that the large commercial la boratories have developed means for handling the industry, Dr. Park said today, the department has decided to urn to it's normal output.
 pr. Parl, estimates that since the beginning of the conflict four million soldiers have received injections of the anti-toxin The work done by the city's bacteriological bureau has not only cost New York taxpayers nothing but has brought in a revenue of $35,- 900 from the sale of anti-toxin.

are due to the merits of Natureopathy.
 Every week brings forth 8 greater demand for more Naturepathic prac-a titioners. There is hardly any disease that the Natureopathic Physician could not greatly benefit. The local Natureopaths have handled the worst forms of disease and aside from their' public demonstration in Turner HalT( just recently they have discharged cured hundreds of cases who have previously tried most all other meth ods without deriving any benefit byj employing the local Natureopath as a1 last resort. Investigation revealed the fact that these people sufferingl for years have tried plenty of medild cines, consulted noted medical speA cialists, Osteopaths, Chiropractors, also took electric and other treat ments with no benefit whatsoever, and having tried Natureopathy as a las resort or catching onto what some say the last straw and to their surprise finding that this last straw in the form of Natureopathic treatment has wonderful restorative agents, not only ! to save their life but actually make them strong, vigorous, and to sfeel once more that life is worth living
 People of this caliber are, therefore. fully capable of judging correctly the merits and demerits of any systen and when they boost Natureopathyv there must be soue good and substan- tial reason for so doing.

forts put forth in order to accom- plish the aims of the board. It is difficult to state which of the three is of the greatest importance; but. as clean milk may be the direct cause of illness, especially among children, we should rank it first. New Britain has a part time man to do milk, meat and food inspections and there are about 206 licensed milk dealers and about 26O food stores to be looked after. Obviously, the fre- quency of inspections must neces- sarily be low. This would be true with one man devoting his whole time to the three departments. There is need of a man devoting his whole time to milk alone, another for meat inspection and still another for in- spection of food stores. Should Report Unclean Stores. 'Last month we advised every0e to learn of the sanitary condition of the place where the milk they bought is handed. There were some who accepted the advice. Again we urge each purchaser of milk to visit his dairy and ask questions. (The own CTS of the better class of dairies vel come such Investigations, also, take notice of the cleanliness of the fIod stores you buy from and lodge your complaints with this department or the store owner direct. If twenty per cent. of the buyers in New Brit ain would do this and stand back of their health department we should have every milk depot and food store in the A and B class within two | months. The unfit would die natural death.

An Old-time Patient Claims Great
 Benefit From Its Use.
 The following is clipped from medical journal of May, 1914, page 166 (name on request): "An old-time patient of mine just informed me that he treated with a number of pnys1c- ians and patent medicines for rheu- matism for the past two years with out obtaining much relief until taking preparation called 'Rheuma', and after taking two or three bottles he claims almost complete cure. Can you tell me what the formula is?--T. A. M., M. D., Missouri"
 Rheuma is manufactured only by the Rheuma Co.,, Buffalo, N. Y, and is sold by The Clark & Brainerd Co.,, and all druggists.
 Cases like the above are numerous, for many users of this great remedy fer rheumatism find it reaches the disease through the blood, kidneys and bowels and cleanses the system of the poisonous uric acid sediment.
