HARD TIMES IN RU8SIA.

TOKYO. May ' 6. Many Russian women fcrmerly of the nobility are reduced to selling newspapers in the streets, according ' to Mrs. Okuyama, wife of the secretary of the Japanese embassy, at Petrograd, who has returned here from Russia.

Sound as an American Dollar Mrs. John Hahn, of 2002 Perm Street, Muncie, Gives Enthusiastic Endorsement.

Muncie, Ind., June 1st, 1917. To the Suffering Public: I want to in this public way described my- forlorn condition and at the same time advise some other suffering woman where to go to get scientific treatment. I began with my trouble In my throat last December. Got so' I could hardly talk above a whisper. 1 consulted doctors with no benefit and was finally taken to a Local Hospital. Was told there that to remove my tonsils was the only remedy, as soon as I could gain enough

strength. I kept growing weaker, losing flesh, could take no nourishment, not even water without it coming back. It couldn't get down my throat more than an inch or two on account of a stoppage of some kind.- 1 was then told I had tuberculosis of the throat and sent home to die. Consider my plight, with two little children and a husband. Could hardly raise my hand to my bead. Finally we heard and read so much of the great good being done by the Inter-State Doctors that we resolved to have their physician come to the house and examine me just to get his opinion at I wasn't able to go to their office. He visited me on April 4tb. 1917. Gave roe a searching examination and filled me with a hope that stayed. For they will positively refuse to treat a case that is incurable. And when Dr. Cul ver told me that my trouble was all due to a Colloid or internal Goitre that was pressing on my wind pipe, and that I was simply dying from starvation, and that the case was curable, it changed our home from a house of gloom to one of supreme Joy. I took medicine from him a few days, and the following week was hauled to their office. He commenced on me by using the Electric Vibrator on my throat and giving me supporting treatment internally I felt much better before I left the office. It wasn't a week until I regained my voice strong as ever, and could eat, relish and swallow all kinds of food and drinks, and

strange as it may seem, in two weeks I bad gained 13 pounds in weight. And now after two months treatment I am as sound as an American Dollar, and working every day. This seems so much like raising a lifeless body from the brink of the grave that it has startled every one who knew me. ' Talk, about pictures of before and after taking I am it! I shall make it my future business to insist on every one who has had an operation suggested to visit these Great Specialists before submitting. . My husband and I are as fast friends as the Inter-State Doctors could have anywhere and we know they have lots of them. I am glad to have the pleasure of publishing this letter and t it done with my own free will and accord. MRS. JOHN HAH.V. 2002 Penn St. Letters coming from such prominent people are sending hundreds of sick people to the great specialists for treatment. No charges made for their searching scientific examination and consultation. They never accept a case unless they are sure of giving great benefit or a cure. The office is open every week day from 9 a. m. to noon, 2 p. m. to 5. After supper from 7 to 8, and Sunday afternoons. The Richmond institute is located on the second floor of the Starr block corner of 10th & Main over Starr Piano store with Doctor "Underwood in charge. Adv.

If you could see a few months ahead, as we, who are in the markets all the time can see, you would let no consideration keep you from purchasing a suit this spring. We are heading toward a wool famine prices are advancing at an alarming rate. Already makers of small capital, who can not invest heavily in woolens, are showing a rapidly deteriorating quality of fabrics some are going out of business entirely.

The newspapers recently had a little note to the effect that it would not be long before men would have to pay $75 for a good wool suit. There is no question but
