Osteopathy is a boon to the man of sedentary habits and to the overworked business and professional man or woman. The osteopathic physician is especially trained and fitted to find and remove the little mechanical derangements of the body-mechanic, which interfere with the normal blood and nerve supply of the organs and tissues of the body. These derangements are the small beginnings of disease. The osteopathic physician offers to the busy man an opportunity to retain his fitness to increase ids efficiency, add years to his life and in his later days escape such foes as rheumatism, Blight’s disease, arterio-sclerosis, nervous prostration and prostatic troubles. For these conditions osteopathy is not only the surest preventative but the best means of cure. DR. C. R. WEAVER. 'Phone 314. ■ ■■■ Q —— DON’T FAIL TO HEAR HON. ALPERT J. BEVERIDGE, SATURDAY. 4:00 P.

I, HOW FRENCH PEOPLE I- CURE STOMACH TROUBLE ( ] A household remedy of the French r , peasantry, consisting of pure vegetable oil, and said to possess wonderful t merit in the treatment of stomach, liver and intestinal troubles, has been inr traduced in thio country by George H. Mayr, who for *wenty-five years has been one of the leading down-town druggists of Chicago and who himself was cured by its use. So quick and effective is its action that a single p f dose is usually enough to bring pro- ] nounced relief in the most stubborn cases, and many people who have tried it declare they never heard of anything to produce such remarkable * results in so short a time. It is known ’ as Mayr’s Wonderful Stomach Remedy and can now l>e had at almost any 1 drug store. It is now ’sold here by all 9 druggists. 1 WANTED- Small furnished house for the winter.
