IS YOUR CHILD
"BACKWARD"
AT SCHOOL?
Posi-ibly the whole trouble
lies in defective eye& the
brain may be waiting aud wil
Jing, but the eyes caniiot feed
, itwith knowledge. Thousands
ot backward ' pupils have
been able to "go ahead" when
their eyes were corrected by
proper lenses. Or your child
may be making progress, but
under an eye strain that will
soon tell on its 'nervous sys
tem. Better bring the child
to us so that you may know
there is nothing the matter
with its eyes or have what
is wrong made right.

How Oregon City Knocks
President J. W. Smith of the coun
ty fair, in an open letter to the peo
ple of the county asking for hearty
co-operation to make this year an ev
en greater success than last, says:
"While it has been a success with
so many pulling against it, what would
it be if all would put their shoulder
to the wheel and help push and boost
for the fair. There are a great many
erroneous ideas and reports afloat In
regard to the management of the fair.
Some think the chance for graft is
great and that its officers are getting
away with the money. There are peo
ple who seem to think that every man
that happens to be elected or appoint
ed to an office, It matters not how
small, is a grafter. If these people
would take enough interest in such
things and the fair to attend the an
nual meeting of the stockholders of
the fair they could hear what be
comes of the money taken In at the
fair. There are a few people in Can
by and vicinity that seem to think
that the people of Oregon City are
knocking the fair. If other parts of
the county would get in and "knock"
like Oregon City has done, we would
have one- of the grandest and best
fairs on the Pacific coast.
Clackamas county has the soil and
advantages over all other counties in
the state, bo why not all boost for our
fair."

Afflicted Humanity
The Mason Hotel at Tenth and "A"
Streets Is the Scene of Miracul
ous Cures-Given Up to Live as
Cripples or Die--All These Have
Been Restored to Health and Hap
piness by Df . Madison's Pare
"Essence of the Green Plant"
and His Bloodless Surgery.
Every day adds to the long list of
permanent cures that Dr. Madison U
accomplishing in his marvelous way
at the Mason hotel at 10th and A
streets. Rheumatic cases of long
standing seem to instantly vanish be
fore his scientific treatments. Many
despondent sufferers of chronic af
flictions are willing and anxious to tes
tify to the great things he has done
for them.
This Is truly the age of wonders.
Discoverers and Inventors are radiat
ing from all quarters of the globe.
The modern pilanthroplsts have also
come in for their share of prominence,
but few have won the gratitude of
suffering humanity as has Dr. Madison
since discovering tils phenomenal sys
tem of permanent cures, after years of
service in some of the world's best
medical institutions. His lecture at
the Tacoma theatre Tuesday night,
June G, was not only most interesting
and Instructive, but a revelation as
well. It is the talk of the town. The
patients to whom he gave instant re
lief before the 'eyes of his audience
have experienced no return symptoms
and cannot say enough in praise of
what the doctor has done for them.
Dr. Madison's Bystem of treatment
waa made possible by his discovery of
the great virtue that lies hidden in
the Juices of various plants from
Mother Earth. Though serving as a
parctitloner for years under the old
school Dr. MadlBon has abandoned the
old orthodox methods in his present
system of cures. He is opposed to
poisoning the system with too many
drugs. Nature seems to accomplish
unaccountable cures through herbs, on
human beings, as for ages they have
In their silent way upon the natives
of forests, foothills, mountains and
plains where nature furnishes them.
In certain complicated cases and in
abnormal anatomy Dr. Madison asso
ciates bloodless surgery with the
"juice of the green plant." There are
but few specialists in the world today
who have won the title of "bloodless
surgeons " Dr. Madison is one of
them. It is hoped for the sake of suf
fering humanity that many more will
acquire his ability to accomplish cures.
Dr. Mndison has scores of convinc
ing testimonials at his office. They
tell stories of human suffering re
lieved which have rarely been equaled
in the annals of medical and surgical
history. Almost everyone was at one
t'me given up by the doctors either to
die or spend the remainder of their
life in bed or on crutches. Some of
these cures were wrought here in Ta
coma f.t the offices In the Hotel Ma
son, where he is now giving treat
ment daily. Some are our Tacoma citi
zens, known and respected here. Some
live in various parts of the state and
some from other states. What the
eyes sea the heart must believe:

I employ this means to signify tho
gratitude I fell toward Dr. Madison
and his successful methods of treating
disease. I have long been a sufferer
from Chronic Rrheumatlsm, and my
suffering for the past three years has
been beyond endurance. I consulted
many physicians and spent large sums
of money in my efforts to get relief,
but Instead of finding it I had to re
sort to crutches to enable me to move
about. I am still wondering over what
Dr. Madison has done for me. It
seems beyond human conception, but,
nevertheless, the fact remains tiiat
siice Dr. Madison treated me In pub

night, my Rheumatism is pant history.
Instead of hobbling about In pain, I

all the pleasures and happiness of
health, I cannot say too mum in
nraiso of what Dr. Madison has done
for me..
MRS. L. J. WRIGHT,

I was helpless from that giant dis
ease, Rheumatism, I managed to
make my way on crutches to the Ev
erett Theater. When Dr. Madison
called for cripples, I went to the plat
form and he treated me for 30 min
utes, after which I walked off the
stage and went home without crutch
es. I went to work for B. H. Vollans
on March 1, and feel fine. I was
treated Feb. 15, 1909.
C. E. SMITH,

I was on crutches for four and a
half years. Dr. Madison treated me at
the Everett Theater, Thursday night,

I continue to walk without the aid of
the crutches and am feeling fine.
