I Want DIFFICULT Eye Cases. All I Ask is That YOU Investigate at My Expense My Knifeless Method Which Has Cured So Many Cases After Others Have Failed. DONT GO BLIND—VISION IS TOO PRECIOUS. I want to DMt with, or hear from every man, woman or child afflicted with diseases of the eye. 1 don't care who the person is or what their eye trouble may be, I will be able to oonviuce them ABSOLUTELY FREE that my painless treatment will do more for them than auy other method known to the profession. By this 1 do not mean there are not some isolated cases that cannot be cured, but I do mean to say emphatically that many » and many difficult cases which . have beeu termed i> curable by others have been permanently jyHKoT cured by my Absorption treatSi ment. One of the thinss that lam ■val//' proud of is in the uninterrupted JjKJp '/ successful career covering- many vS/V years. I have eliminated the nefUKuyZ 'm//./. ~ cesslty of using the dangerous and UnJJSy/C v/////// painful knife on the delicate eye, JB WW//j&pmSS}j 'Rk {/////// but what I make cures where othWSj7//// s, I m V////// er. have advised that only an operjUmj///// V///// / / atlon would bring relief. My suo\Wm//i//// CJI N y//// //// cess has not' beeu brought about W//,(/// . v////////i b y a cure to-day and a failure toyjf f////////// morrow, but it has been a uniform ’]/////.// [[Z///J success. Take for instance my '////mO l UW' /'/S/ treatment for Cataract, which is '/W/W//.A t //////////// one of the most dreadful and most /V/////, obstinate troubles to deal with, y/jjmZSfc. W Z//Z//// other oculists tell you it oan only / \ !'' '/////, be treated successfully by means v I >///// of a dangerous operation. To-day W/y/z^ '//// my treatment is pronounced the ') ) WAvnTnjOy only SURE knifeless treatment i lllfrlllirtVrS///\ I V5///7h/vM\ known. And why? Because the I ti///nill Ilk//////\ \ l I Jt////J)y.'/fi A cures have been so uniform. Had * mil'//\l //\ \\ [ 'Uf/fIJI/Ihil I only cured a few cases nowand VJI/lISIIIIK//// \ \. 1 yf///fJIJIWA then, it would be said, “You might tllfljWill l\U /// \ \i V//////yyij\ be cured by Dr. Madison’s treatUl/fl mill \H/i \ tl V I lllf/lA* ment," but it is the uniformity of '{III Hy 11 Will \ l\ \(/lf[/,vy cures in the most difficult cases Hill W \'f// \ \\ 1 1, 'll' that causes people to say, “You "II llllkl lYf/l. \ B 1 h V can positively be cured by the </l |JII\ \\\'/|, \ ’ W ' Madison Absorption Method." * \\V \ \ v Take for instance, these few tes'"lV* 'l 1 1 timonials taken at random : _ Mrs. F. L. Wintermute.lil Second AMERICA’S MASTER OCULIST. St., Jackson, Mich., under date of (OOPYHIGHTXD) October 18, 1906, writes: “After * having been repeatedly told tout there was no cure for my cataracts except an operation, to-day my eyes are perfect by means of your knifeless home treatment. I have regained my vision in six months. Mr. C. W. Johnson, of Grand Detour, 111., in a recent letter said, in part: “1 deem it a pleasure, as well as a duty to mankind, to certify to the benefits received from using your home absorption treatment for cataracts. Mrs. Johnson was treated by many physicians. YOU CURED HER." I personally devote my entire time and study to the Eye, and I assure my patients prospective patients my personal attention, even to the smallest details. No matter what you are suffering from—whether from Cataraot, Inflammation. Pannus, Ptosis, Optic Nerve Trouble, or iu fact any affliction of the vision—l can successfully treat you. I guarantee a perfect, permanent cure for Cross Eyes, whether it be internal or external strabismus, without the use of the knife, with absolutely no risk, pain or inconvenience, wlthout confining my patient to a dark room for a moment, or without the use of a single bandage. VISION IN LIFE-BLINDNESS IN OBLIVION. If you value your eyesight, no matter what your disease, no'matter what your thought, investigate. It is not goiug to cost you any money to prove to your entire satisfaction that my treatment is all I claim for it, for all I ask or you is to send me your name and address, no matter where you live, aud 1 will send you FREE an BU-page booklet, illustrated in oolors, which is a classic ou diseases of the eye. I will tell you who I am, what I have accomplished, aud will tell you in detail of the more oommou troubles, their causes, their effects and their cure. Also ■ ther things of value to you. This is all for the mere asking. Can you afford to delay ? Write me today and relieve your mind. My office hours are from 10H)0 a. m. until 5:00 p. m; Sundays, from 9:00 a. m. to 11:00 a m. only. Special appointmeut, however, can be made by letter or wire. P. C. MADISON, M. D.

GUDULE VALE

There were many ladies’ parties on Albert Blithe's yacht The three Misses Flyaway were always there, Mrs. Captain Vincent and Mrs. Blush and also —good gracious, to think of It—Signora Tambourini of the opera, who sang deliciously in the moonlight evenings. “No company for you, my dear—for the Rev. Dr. Dionysius Vale’s niece,” her aunt had cried in horror when Oudule Vale’s Invitation arrived, and a regret had been sent at once. “What a dear little girl she would be but for that absurd primness!” said Albert to himself as he leaned, whistling, over the bridge. And, truth to tell, the yachting party had lost all its charm to the first speaker and the evening service half its sweetness to the last. However, the yachting party came off on the following Thursday. “And they say that Albert Blithe is engaged to that pretty little friend of Mrs. Captain Vincent, Violet Carmen,” said her aunt to Gudule Vale. "A very suitable match Indeed, from all I’ve heard of her,” replied pretty young Gudule, and then she went up Into her own room and locked the door and sat down by the window overlooking the garden. “As for me,” she thought, “I do not suppose a more lonely girl lives. My Aunt Jane Is ouly an aunt by marriage, and she will marry again, I am sure. I think it is my duty to go out with the Persian mission. I will give In my name tomorrow.” And so it came to pass that a few days after It was pretty well known throughout the village that the late curate’s niece, Miss Gudule Vale, was going out to Persia with the new members of the mission, who were to join It In December. And Miss Bamaby, who had wavered for awhile as to the mission, reproached her with having “taken her place.” “But I shall come out next year,” said Miss Barnaby. And now the time wqs very near, and again the great bell of St. Ursula’s was ringing and the fashionable bonnets climbing the bill to evening prayers of a Wednesday afternoon, and, although the branches were bare - and the last yellow leaf was whirling along the road, Albert Blithe sat perched upon the bridge rail, as on that day months before, and watched the road that led from the gates of the parsonage garden. Along it she came, trim In her woolen dress of French gray, for the voyage. "Gudule!” He had not called her that since they played In the garden together, but the missionary was too humble In heart to resent It She paused and answered: “Yes, It is I. Good evening.” “Stop a moment” said Albert huskily. "Don’t pass me like that I want to speak to you. Are you really going to Persia with the missionaries—you 7” “Yes, really, I,” she answered. “I hope I am not unworthy." “Confound it Gudule! Don't talk like that” uld Albert "We are old friends. I must speak. You are too delicate, too young too. What I mean Is you are going to your death.” “We go to our Aeatb always. I want ✓ — • \ ►

to do some good before I die,” said Gudule. “And must you go away from all who love you? Must you go to Persia to do good?” asked Albert. “It seems so to me,” said Gudule faintly. ‘‘And very few love me much.” Somehow the tears arose in her eyes. Her heart softened, but she said something in a low tone about Miss Carmen making him happy, etc. Albert interrupted her. "Gudule, I am glad that you desire me to be happy, and Miss Violet Carmen is pretty, but I cannot understand why you should associate our names even In your prayers.” “Your future w’ife,” murmured Gudule. "Mms Violet is not that. There has never been any thought of It!” cried Albert Blithe. “You think me a black sheep, a wicked fellow, with no good In me, but you are the only woman I ever loved or ever shall. Don't leave me and go to Persia.” At these words poor little Gudule began to tremble all over and hid her face from him. “I’m a heathen—granted!” Albert continued. “You have It In your power to convert me to anything good you like. Am I not as w’ell worthy as some dusky skinned oriental? Really, Gudule, I shall go to the dogs without you. With you I shall be too happy to do anything but the very best I know how. Be my wife and my salvation from evil, darling.” Foor little Gudule! lam afraid her heart was very weak. Thus put to her, this one heathen appeared to be worth all the others yet unknown. “And Miss Barnaby Is so anxious to go," she said, half t 6 herself. She knew what would befall her—how her admirers would despise her, how her set would be shocked at her choice. Bat she felt also that It was not in Jest that he had said to her, “Be my salvation from evil,” and that a good wife may well be that, and he knew also that his merry ways of bachelorhood must be put by, and that his gay friends and this little gray love of his had nothing In common, but In her love was the peace he sought, and so, with four words more from him and one from her, the mission lost Gudule Vale and gained Miss Barnaby.

FOR THE HOUSEWIFE

Health Hints. ■When a cut will not heal, saturate a piece of absorbent cottou with coal oil and biud on. If a pimple or boll will not come to a head, apply cloths that have been dipped lu hot water. If there Is trouble of any kind with the eyes, a wash of either cold tea or new milk Is good. j A few drops of camphor taken lump of sugar at the first Intimation of a cold will often break it up. When food will not stay ou the stomach, put one teaspoouful of llmewater In a glass of milk and sip it slowly. For bronchial trouble, If common baking soda is blown through a glass tube Into the throat It will be found effective. For a scald try dry flour. The heat from the burn will moisten the flour, and if it Is left on it will heal without a scar.

Coddled Apples. CoddlSQ ifpples are made by steaming or parboiling sweet apples that have beeu cored and then simmering them in a sirup made from sugar and water or the water the apples were boiled In. This sirup must have sliced lemon In It. Do not let the apples break to pieces. Sweet apples are chosen because they hold their shape better than sour ones. When thoroughly done and flavored through and through with the rich lemon sirup, dish them and pour the sirup over. 801 llt down If necessary. This is a delicious way to cook apples. They can be cooked In the sirup In a double boiler, a few at a time. An Improved Du«tj>nn. In carrying the ordinary dustpan from one room to another some of the contents are sure to fall out Dust being very light, the slightest wind picks it up and blows It off the pan. This cannot happen with the one shown here. Over half of the surface of the pan Is covered,, which helps to prevent the dust escaping. As an additional

PREVENTS ESCAPE OF DUST.

aid the inventor has added a handle by which the dustpan can be carried anywhere without fear of losing any of the contents. In gathering up the duet the pan is placed in the ordinary position. By swinging the handle over to the left and the pan raised the dust drops Into the receptacle formed by the cover. In this way It is not affected by the wind. Laundry Lore. If the following list be pasted upon the door of the laundry closet and the chemicals used with Judgment and patience, success can be warranted in a large per cent of experiments: For black ink stains use oxalic acid. To neutralize acids use ammonia. For grass stains, colored inks or dyes use alcohol. For paint use turpentine. For bleaching or tea, coffee, cocoa, fruit or mildew stains use javelle water. For grease or wax use benzine. For vaseline use kerosene. The Hot Footbath, A hot footbath ot a temperature of 108 degrees to 110 degrees is an exceedingly useful means of balancing the circulation by the dilation of the blood vessels of the legs, relieving congestion of the brain and other organs In the upper half of the body. The duration of a hot footbath may be from five minutes to half an hour. The feet should be completely Immersed. After the hot footbath the feet should receive a dash of cold water to produce true tonic circulatory action. Rusty Nickel Platlnar. Rust may be removed from nickel plating by covering the spots with mutton tallow and letting It stand for several days. If this treatment Is followed by a rubbing with powdered rotten stone and then by a thorough washing with strong ammonia, succeeded by clear water and a final polishing with dry whiting, stubborn cases will yield. Waterproof Glue. A good waterproof glue may be made from three parts of gum shellac and one part of India rubber, these being dissolved separately In ether under the Influence of heat, and the two solutions mixed and kept for a time in a sealed bottle. Baked Apple* and Bananas. Gore five apples, fill the core with sugar and put about a two Inch piece ot banana In each core; sprinkle with sugar and a dot of butter. Bake until tender through. For Cleaning Woolens. Two medium sized potatoes grated Into a quart of water will make an excellent liquid for cleaning woolens or for washing delicately colored fabrics.

STOMACH'S IMPORTANCE.

How to Strengthen It so That It Will Act as it Should. To enjoy both health and happiness, it is absolutely necessary that the stomach and digestive organs should be strong enough to properly digest the food. If they are weak and inactive, the body will soon be in a state of semi-starvation. Nothing equals Miona stomach tablets in giving strength and tone to the whole digestive system. Use this remedy for a few days, aiJa you will find the* appetite keen, the digestion good, no nausea or distress after eating, no sleeplessness, no nervousness and the backaches and headaches that are the direct results of a weakened stomach, will soon be overcome. Ask B. F. Fendig to show you the guarantee which he gives with every 50 cent box of Mi-o-na. It is the oDe remedy he has enough faith in to guarantee.
