Charlie White, the Chicago light

Entirely Cured of Piles and Nervous
Trouble.
For many years I suffered with the
piles and my nerves. My nerves were so
bad at times that 1 could hardly stand
to be around my children and my piles
bothered me much that I had almost
given up all hope of ever getting we'll
again. 1 had taken lots of treatment for
my nerves and used many different kinds
of salves for my piles, but nothing SEEM
ed to do much good. I saw by the
papers that DR.. Wolfe, the Specialist,
from Topeka, was coming to Sen
eca every four weeks. and I went to
him and when he told me he could cure
me, 1 could hardly believe him. I i'm
mediately began his treatment and now
after a few months of his treatment I
can say that 1 am entirely cured of my
piles and nervous trouble cannot praise
DIR. Wolfe too highly, and can gladly
recommend him to any one in need of
treatment for piles and chronic diseases.

at times they were SO very painful that

Doctor Wolfe was coming to Salnia
and I asked friend of mine,
who was taking treatment from him al
the time and he advised me to call on
Dr. Wolfe for treatment. 1 went with
him and began treatment Immediately,
and now 1 can say that l am entirely
cured of the piles and they have not
bothered me since taking the second
treatment. 1t was worth a great deal
more to me to be cured than what the
doctor charged me. 1 gladly rec

Could Scarcely Do Chores.
March IL, 1915.
I suffered with piles for a number of
years and also had pain in my left leg
which bothered me great deal at times.
The pain caused from the piles was so
severe at times that 1 could hardly stand
it, / consulted DIR. Wolfe, Specialist,
from Topeka, in regard to the pain in
my leg and he Immediate told me it
caused by my piles and L began
treatment at once. The doctor treated
my piles and did not give me any medi-
cine at all and in very short time the
pain had left my leg entirely and a little
later the pain from the piles disappeared
and now 1 am enjoying the best of health
again. 1t only took four treatments for
the doctor to cure me. 1 can gladly rec
ommend anyone suffering from piles to

ment, 1 have enjoyed good health.

Piles Troubled Every Day For Years
Now Sound and Well.
I suffered with piles for twenty-five
years and at times they would bleed so
badly and this weakened me so much
that it almost impossible for me to
do anything. They were very painful and

not like to have them operated on. 1 saw
by the paper that United Doctor Spec

and decided to call him.
1 began his treatment Immediately
and after the second treatment the piles
stopped bleeding, and L began to improve
and enjoy good health again. There was
but very little pain to the treatment. /

for what DR.. Wolfe has done for me. L
know that one will make mistake by
having DR.. Wolfe treat their piles be-

Vermillion-At O meeting of the
inspectors of the State Food and
Drug Department with the COM
missioner in the offices here late
last week plans for the inspection
of school buildings in the state
were discussed. The public build
ing inspection law makes this
duty of the department. and In or
der that those in charge Of such
buildings may know what the de-
partment will consider "safe" in
school buildings there will be
shortly sent to all boards Of edu-
cation a circular outlining the
general requirements under this
law. Laws of other states and
city ordinances have been consult
ed and a code of specifications
concerning fire escapes, stairways,
exits and fire protection has been
drawn up for the guidance of the
inspectors and OF school boards
and others having charge of school
buildings.
Other matters discussed at this
meeting included plans for spring
activity in enforcing the sanitary
food law, means of controlling the
traffic in rotten eggs, feeding stuffs
inspection and many other topics
connected with the work of the de-
partment. Work under the sani.
tary food law Will be pushed with
more vigor this year than ever be-
fore and the inspectors will wage a
continuous warfare on flies, filth
and dirt of all kinds in food hand
ling establishments. The results
OF the campaign last year for bet
ter eggs were very encouraging,
and this year it is expected that
much more will be accomplished.
The action of the federal authori.
ties in prohibiting the shipment of
"spots" and "blood ringers" in
Interstate commerce will be a
great help in enforcing state food
laws relating to bad eggs, and the
traffic in eggs which are unfit for
food should soon be entirely done
away with.
Inspectors attending this confer-
ence were G. J. Hatch, of Yankt,n,
w. M. Cox, of Rapid City; A.
Prestwick of Summit and Harey

The papers are making much of
large balance of trade in our favor
at the present time and one might
infer that this was an indication
of prosperity for this country. AS
a matter of fact a balance of trade
counts for nothing as an indication
of prosperity. AS our trade with
foreign countries is now nearly all
export, and we are cut off from
imports, of course the balance is
In our favor. At the same time

could be shown that our exports
