SR. WELLS,! Rectal Specialist. — ! '' jr i '' * 'WOsH i t w—■ R. HENRY WELLS, the Fort Wayne Ree'al Specialist, will Dmake a professional visit to Decatur on TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 1903, ind once a month thereafter. He will be at the Decatur House on the date mentioned from 8:00 a. m. to 5:00 p. in.. where he may be consulted free of charge. Doctor Wells treats all forms of rectal diseases, including piles, fissure, fistula, itching, bleeding, stricture of the rectum and constipation. P | LES I This painful and annoying malady is one that can always be cured by proper treatment. Dr. Wells absolutely guarantees to cure the worst case of piles, no difference how bad they are or how long they have existed. His easy method of cure requires no cutting or pain and the most sensitive person need have no hesitancy in calling upon him. -STRICTURE OF THE RECTUM - i Stricture of the rectum which is a narrowing or partial closure o the rectal canal, acting as an obstruction is in many instances the cause of constiptaion and other nervous manifestations which can not be cured till the stricture is cured. It should never be permitted to go uncured. CONSTIPATION Constipation is the bane of a woman’s life and is the cause of more of her ailments than childbearing (and all other things combined. An impacted rectum bearing down on the womb causes displacements, inflamation, leucorhoea, backache and a variety of other symptons in women and prostatic and bladder troubles in men. No person can have good health who is compelled to be always taking physics to relieve constipation. Dr. Wells has a method by which he can permanently cure the worst cases of constipation and solicits consultation by all those who are suffering from constipation or any form of rectal disease: Dr. Wells I graduated 15 years ago 1888 and has since that time devoted himself to the study of these diseases. In order to become rapidly acquainted with the people of Adams Co., he will make a specially low rate for treatment to those calling upon him on his initial trip to Decatur. TESTIMONIALS j Dr. ells does not publish the n imes of those who give testimonials for the reason that many patients are kept away from his office for fear their names will be published, but he can refer you to hundreds who have received satisfactory treatment from him. A few are given below whose names and addresses will be furnished upon application and you may write to, or call upon them if you so desire. FROM A LAOY RESIDING IN FORT WAYNE. Case No. 211: Several years ago Dr. Wells cured me of a long standing and painful case of piles after several other physicians had tried to cure me and failed. Tne treatment was entirely without pain and the trouble has never returned. I recomend his treatment to any one suffering as I was. FROM A HUNTINGTON COUNTY CITIZEN. Case No. 372: 1 was cured by Dr. Wells several years ago of a severe case of rectal tumors which several other physicians had tried to cure without giving me any benefits. The trouble has never returned and I would recomend any one similarly afflicted to consult Dr. Wells. FROM A LAOY LIVINGIN A SMALL TOWN NEAR FT WAYNE. Case No. 611: I had a fissure of the rectum which gave me the most excrutiating pain 1 ever experienced. I was completely cured by Dr. Wells wiih one treatment and I hope others suffering as I was will go to him for treatment. FROM A LEADING CITIZEN OF ALLEN COUNTY. Case No. 696; For a a number of years I suffered from a malady of the rectum which often disabled me from work. Several physicians whom I consulted said I coud not be curc<’ without an operation, to which I objected. I finally consulted Dr. Wells who completely cured me without an operation, the first treatment giving me complete relief from suffering. I heartily reccomend his treatment to all who have any form of rectal disease. He also cured my wife of constipation. FROM A LAOY LIVING IN THE COUNTY. Caso No. 634. I had a terrible itching of the rectum and surrounding parts, which nearly drove me frantic and worried the life out of me. One who has not had it cannot imagine the suffering that I experienced. Dr. Wells cured me in a short time, and without a particle of pain, and I hope every lady afflicted as I was will hear of Dr. Welle, for all other doctors had failed to cure me. FROM A PENNSYLVANIA R. R. EMFLOYEE. Case No. 1017. A stricture of the rectum, which had afflicted mej for a number of years, had ruined my health and made me a nervous wreck. It also made me very constipated. After a few weeks treatment by Dr. Wells I was entirely cured, and I now feel like a new man. He is the only physician who ever benefited me any. Anyone desiring to call upon or correspond with any of the above mentioned parties, may do so by asking for the case number and the name and address will be furnished. No names used without consent.

Sept. 14.—The Albanian and Turkish troops collected in the vilayet of Adrianople appear to be pursuing their usual tactics of burning and plundering the villages ' and killing the peasants Instead of | making an attempt to break up the insurgent bands. Very little news is filtering through from Monastir, but all reports agree that the position of the Christians is desperate. The Turks are making a clean sweep of I the whole Bulgarian element. The Albanian soldiers in the vilayet of Adrianople are stated to be entirely be- ' yond control. At Kostursco the influ- : enti, beys complained to the officers lof the excesses committed by the . troops. The officers resented the crit- | iclsm and told the soldiers that the i beys were friends of the revolutionarI ies, whereupon the soldiers burned the I beys' farms. The Turks have burned the villages of Almagik and Orikler, lin the district of Losengrad. They beheaded twenty-two Bulgarians at Almagik in the presence of their families. Twelve thousand troops are assembled aronnrk Malkntonovo and are engaged In pillaging and burning the villages. The population everywhere is fleeing to the forests and mountains. All the Turkish population in the district of Losengrad has received arms, even the boys being armed with I revolvers. The Albanian soldiers pro. I ceeding from Odrin to Losengrad plundered the villages en route, robbed the churches and burned the village of Korakej. Another body of Albanians going to Vasiliko on the Black sea was attacked by a baud and is reported to have suffered a loss of a hundred men. A ba_d led by the insurgent chief at Amazoff was surrounded by Turkish troops at Kokushko. After six hours fighting the insurgents cut I their way through the soldiers by throwing bombs. The Turks lost twenty. The final arrangements for a revo-' I lutionary outbreak in eastern Macedonia have been completed, but for seme inexplicable reason tne rising hangs fire. The whole district is divided into six sections, tne insurgents being under the following leaders: General Zontcheff, colonel Yankoff, Captain Jordan Stoyanoft. and Lieutenants Stoyantcheff, Darvfngoff and Atamasoff. — QUIET AT BEIRUT Calm Succeeds the Storm That Lately Swept Over City.
