HASSAM PAVEMENT
Proceedings of the City CounoU Brought
Into Question.
Portland, Or., Dec. 4. Editor of The
Journal There are streets and streets
and pavements and pavements, but the
thing that Is interesting the -property
owners in Portland at the present time
Is which street Is he located on and
what pavement are they going to give
him.
Under the present ruling of the city
counoll, I am Informed that one fifth
of the property Is sufficient justifica
tion for the council to order pavement
put down for the other four fifths.
Now, I have this to say, that after
a careful Investigation of the differ
ent kinds of pavement we use In our
city, that so far as durability is con
cerned, the Hassam pavement is un
doubtedly the best and if property
owners In general should watch the
proceedings of our city council more
closely, they would observe that so
far this company is getting a little bit
the worst of it Just why, I am not
prepared to eear. but presumably be
cause they are newcomers in the local
paving world and are obliged to cross
swords with the older companies that
have blaied a trail and have traveled a
beaten path for many years.
What the outcome wilise. I as a pri
vate citixen, await with interest
In front of my residence 1 have the
Hassam pavement and consider it sat
isfactory in every respect and as above
stated, from the best information Z
can obtain from eastern cities it is
not only the most durable, but the most
sanitary and pleasing to the - eye. Wo
live in an age that future generations
will designate as the concrete age and
in my humble opinion, the street in
front of my- present residence will be
used by the members of that, genera
tion with the same satisfaction It
gives me now T
I am sending this letter in the hone
.that, other property owners may In
vestigate me merits- oi tne different
street pavements before " lending thetr
support to any particular one. feelinar
confident they will arrive at the same
conclusion that l nave, tnat tne Hassam

CHRONIC DISEASES
WOW CUBED BY
ELECTRICITY
The action of the modern high
potential, high frequency currents
- entirely different from that of
ordinary electricity. Glass does
not Insulate this form of elec
tricity, as it passes through the
glass electrodes used in treating
skin diseases, ulcers and enlarged
glands. As the nerve currents
of the body are essentially elec
tric in character, it follows that
this powerful form of electricity
Is the best possible treatment for
all nervous diseases, and experi
ence shows that it cures nervous
debility, sciatica, nervous head
aches, neuasthenia. In rheuma
tism It is equally effective, and
aided by the radiant heat of the
high power electric light, it re
moves Inflammation from the
joints, or from any part of the
body. This power over inflamma
tion makes the treatment curative
in a great many conditions which
are not Influenced by medicine or
ordinary methods of treatment
Such troubles as Indigestion,
chronlo constipation and piles
yield readily to It, and asthma,
chronic bronchitis, consumption
(first and second stages), catarrh
of the stomach, appendicitis and
kidney diseases are cured.
N. B. This treatment Is pecu
liarly effective In diseases of the
PROSTATE, removing congestion
and reducing enlargement of the
gland.
