Fire Spreads Rapidly. A desperate effort was maide by Pat terson to save the loo head or horses which were in the burning building. The mass of fodder and the tinder-like structure of the building, however, fed the flames at such a rapid rate that 61 of the homes were burned to death in their tall.

A $23,000 Loss Was Sustained When the Shingle Mill Shown Above Was Burned Yes terday Afternoon. Several Investors have been negotiating aged by fire nnd the contents entirely property will be cleared off at once and put i good shape for future Investment. for the purchase of the property either In whole or in part for some time and it is nrobable that the deal will be closed within n short time. One persoi desires to purchase the aje half block while others are after portions of the lot. The property is assessed at $94,500 and its estimated market value is about $150,000. The fire damaged the, water tank on the top of the Marshall Wells building, burned away n portion of the large sign on the Fifth street side and scorched the roof. Tt is estimated by the manager for Marshall Wells that the damage will be between $300 and $400. which Is covered by insurance. The solid wail construction of the Mar shall Wells building, which is said to be the best constructed warehouse build ing on the Pacific coast, saved that structure from any damage cither by fire or water. The old shacks on the north of the stable across Ankeny street were dam- ruined. The Burton rooming-house was damaged to the greatest extent, it Delng estimated that the loss will amount to close to $1,000. Other Buildings Damaged. A number of popcorn and candy wagons belonging to peddlers and stored In a vacant lot back of the rooming house were also burned, while a small store room on the corner of Fifth and Ankeny was burned. The office of the Henninger Messonurer company was de stroyed, as was that of the Holzmatl Sign Painting company. The Volun teers of America headquarters was de stroyed and the contents ruined. The loss' in none of these instances will ex ceed $500. The property containing the lodging house and other shacks belonged to the Pacific Paper company, which has been planning to tear down Uie oiu woouen buildings preparatory to constructing a modern building on the site. The ten ants had been notified to vacate. The work of tearing down these old struc tures will be materially aided by their partial destruction by the fire. The only pprson injured at the Are, so far as reported, was C. M. .Fatter son of the liverv stable firm, who cut his left hand and wrist severely while trying to save the papers and books of the company from the safe in the office On the Fourth street side.

The Leading- poolaUsa RESULTS ARE THE ONLY TEST I make definite claims for my methods of treating Men's Diseases. I claim oriKlnallty, distinctiveness, scientific correctness and unap pmaclied success. Kvery one of these claims Is backed by substantial proof The best evidences of superiority are the cures themselves. My treatment cures permanently those cases that no other treatment can cure.

WEAKNESS. I have a treatment for men's weakness which is entirely out of the line of the stimulants and tonics which for a long time was the only help that physicians had to offer for such conditions. Being all the treatment known to the ordinary physician and all that was mentioned- In medical text hooks from which such disorders were studied. Its frequent failure to give help caused many honest nnd well - meaning physicians to admit that there was nothing to help a man whose vlrjle power was declining. Hut my exhaus tive studies In the specialties of Men's Weakness proved conclu sively to me that this class of dis order In about nine cases out . of ten Is due to an affection of the nerves of the prostate, gland, or to a disturbance of the blood sup ply to this Important organ. Treatments must bo given to the affected part. It must be local and dlrecV It must be the right treatment, and the action of the medication must be minutely understood. Then the result Is never In doubt for a minute, and the cure is as permanent as It is absolute. SPECIFIC BLOOD FOISOlf. I cure this leprous disease com- cletely. The system is thoroughly cleansed and every poisonous taint removed. The last svmoton van. Ishes to appear no more, and all Is accomplished by the use of harm less, blood-cleansing remedies. TAHIOOCEI.E. By Varicocele we understand a twisted, hardened and knotted con dition of the veins carrying tho blood from the appendages. This Is a very common complaint and Is produced hy various causes. It seldom causes any rapid decline, but undermines insidiously and weakens the sufferer In both mind and body. The stagnant blood In the affected veins seriously Inter rupts the blood supply of the or gans, and often is the cause of rflex symptoms which are not eslly recognized. The ordinary physician advises an operation for varicocele, and knows oC no other treatment. The sufferer must pay a good fee, besidss the loss of time and the extra hospital bills. By my improved methods I use no knife, cause no pain, nor loss of time from business. My treatment Is scientific, thorough, permanent and never falls. It will pay every man suffering from Varicocele to investigate before considering oth er treatments.

They like to look on men as strong-, capable beings, afraid of nothing. Beatrice r airiaz in Boa ton "American." A woman has no use for a weak man. Bhe admires that "afraid of nothing" spirit which a weak man lacks; that spirit of ambition which makes a man get up and hustle. She Ilka the strong man because he Is a protection; E e has strength, ambition, rim, and is not afraid of work. His eres are bright, his gslt is ull of ener gy, his speech is positive.
