A Brief Description of the Man, His
Methods and Results.
(Bu r. A. CaidweH.)

Wy II. n. SmuUeH'J
It's the people who have been bene-
fitted that are willing to tell of won
derful work of any benefactor of hui
manity; and no man can long get the
applause of the public who has nothing
to show by his works.
Human intelligence is no longer de-
eeived by the quack in the medical OF
other field or profession; but to gain
the confidence of the public they mus
see and know of the work of any man
The ordinary testimonial is often
taken as a mark of cheap approval;
but the testimonials that speak strongest
of DR.. Spalding's work and methods
can walk and talk today; they are liv-
ing. healthy, happy people, who will
treasure the memory of the man who
made them whole, long after the critic,
have been forgotten.
DR.. Spalding known intimately by
the writer for many years, is what
would term an extraordinary man. Al
the age of IL he began the study OF
the Bible, which he continued through

have spoken of only to show what HAS
been done; but what is the most i'm
portant to you in all the world is,
What can be done for me?' The
answer is simple: Find out. Remem-
Der this Chiropractor uses methods of his
OWN; methods that are producing re-
suits that are astounding; methods so
successful as TO evoke jealous TRADES
from some schools of his own profess
sion, but the tribute of loving memory
from those he saves. He has treated
and cured cases that had been pro-
nounced incurable by the Head Ply
sieian Of the greatest Sanitariums and
Health Resorts in America; among them
Hip-joint Disease, Paralysis, Sciatica,
ricketts,, Epilepsy, Deafness, Lumbago,
Arthritis, ST. Vitus' Dance, Rheumatism,
Pellegra, as well as many peculiar con-
dltions that had been present with som.

he has had as ptients men, women and
children that had failed to get relief at
the greatest sanitariums in the world.
He has cured after other medicines and
drugs had left these people helpless
wrecks upon Iife's sea. He has cured
people again and again of so-called in
durable diseases.
| Still they are coming.-He has had
under his successful care people from
New York, Boston, Chicago and other
large cities; and he has had as his
patients medical men from the fore
most medical colleges of America.

statements from hundreds of people tes-
tifying of bis ability a heller. You
are welcome TO investigate his claims.
Come TO him and ask for names of
these people who have enjoyed the
fruits of bis knowledge. DR.. Spalding

nothing but right that people should
know what be has accomplished without
the use of drugs,

and a table covered with oilcloth to
carry clothes and also serve as a

provides fuel for both the stove and

justice in his heart He gave pre-emp-
tory instructions to the ury NOT to
find Spalding guilty. The court house
was crowded. When the people found
Spalding was free scene of boistrous
JOY broke forth. Canes and hats were
thrown in midair and across the room.
Men leapedf over chairs and benches to
grasp the fdoetor's hand some shouted
and Others wept for joy. Spalding had
won; and through the battle he had
carried unsullied the banner of Chiro-
praefic, and established its home with
these people forever.
FAmong these people be had treated
and cured, or caused TO heal, under his
peculiar methods, many cases that medi-
cal men had pronounced beyond human
skill. He had snltehed from the very
jaws of death, as it were, cases given
up to die. He had treated and cured,
at Wickliffe, Mrs. Hedge of blindness;
her daughter saved from an early lunger's
grave; Miss Lula Hill he had cured of
a case of total deafness of ten years
duration; and Others of disease and in
firmities as bad. 1t was for these
crimes the Learned Medical Men of
Ballard County wanted Spalding put
behind the bars; because they could not
duplicate his work, they would rather
have seen his patients in their graves,
beneath the silent stars. Thus it has
ever been; the torch of reason spreads
slowly its light, for every inch advance
means an effort and fight against the
prejudice of men.

over two-thirds of the milk con-
sumed in the city. all of which they
nasteurize. They showed total

II was pointed out that many
cities throughout the country make
strict demand that all milk sold
must have been pasteurized. The
claim was laid that pasteurization
kills the typhoid fever, scarlet fe-

II was also said that there are
tubercular cattle in many herds
and that raw milk sold from such
herds is dangerous. Claim was
made that the state has conducted
no tubercular survey among cattle
herds in this vicinity in the last
three years and that it is a public
benefit if other precautions are
taken.
