A Popular Man Greeted bv a Large Crowd FRANKLIN CAUSES BIG EXCITEMENT IN RENSSELAER—INDICATIONS THAT HIS > — BIG SUCCESS ELSEWHERE WILL BE DUPLICATED HEREFREE ENTERTAINMENT AND LECTURES. EVERY NIGHT AT 7:30 AT ELLIS THEATRE WILL CONTINUE HIS FREE CONCERT. W / W ' If (hit ” / The Franklin man, traveler, lecturer, advertiser and philanthropist, who created such a furore in the larger cities through the country, Tuesday night gave his first lecture and demonstration to the people of Rensselaer. The entertainment was a big success. The music and singing pleased the crowd, as one could tell by the expression on their faces. The crowd represented Rensselaer’s best citizens and presented a different strata of humanity. The merchant, the workingman and their families, the shop girl, all mingled together and enjoyed art evening of merriment and pleasure. The free concert is held at the Ellis Theatre. The lecture by the Franklin man is a remarkable example of oratorical power. Franklin has the look of a man who has done many things and accomplished much along his life’s work. When he talks he speaks conviction into the hearts of his hearers. In an interview, Franklin expressed his warm appreciation of the manner in which he had been received in this city. “I have been busy every minute I have been here. All day long many people called at my headquarters above the Republican office to see about the new medical discovery. I have demonstrated* the Franklin remedies in the extreme western cities and I have wondered if the people here in the east were affected with the same ills of mankind to the same extent as those who inhabit the extreme western states. But I am convinced beyond doubt that humanity is the same everywhere—all are subject to the common enemy, disease. My theory is readily accepted by thinking people, because it is simple, remarkable and sound. I maintain that the stomach is the supreme organ of the body, controlling the lifegiving fluids of the body, and therefore responsible for either health or disease. It naturally follows that if the stomach is restored to normal condition, good health cannot fail to follow. The new discovery will do this, and before I am here one week citizens will substantiate niy claim. Every evening the rheumatic, deaf and paralytic are invited to come up on the stage and test the healing power of the new discovery, Franklin preparations. Every day from 10 to 12 in the morning, 2 to 4 in the afternoon and 7 to 8 in the evening the registered physician that accompanies the Franklin man is kept busy et his headquarters above the Republican office, attending to the many callers. —Adv.
