many of these. After the men have
been classified they have five days in
which to appeal from the time they
receive their card, if they are not
satisfied with the result. 80,
About twenty-five per cent of the
names are sent to the district board
for classification. Twenty-one of the
men listed in class I are already in
actually service. H.

 case of Bright's disease. The doctors said it could not be cured. His con- dition was pronounced hopeless, not only by private physicians, but also by doctors at the hospital. He went nearly blind. On advice of physicians he started to a noted hospital in New Orleans to have an operation perform ed on his kidneys. But he never arriv- there. He got so much worse on the train that the train crew put him off thinking he was going to die. A good Samaritan took him in, nursed him and gave him medicine restoring him to health If you are afflicted with Bright's disease, or any disease of the kidneys or bladder, by all means write for free copy of the "Hobo" booklet containing the story of Joe O'Brien, as well as sworn testimony from many others who testify they have been absolutely cured by the Hobo Kidney and Bladder Remedy.
