In case this country becomes involved

It is the intention of TJeut. Field, in

specialists being peculiarly valuable in an

A Treatment That Ts Modern, Scien
tific, .ami "What Is or Much More
Importance, a Treatment '.That
Cn res 5 a Month A "Free Trial.
Dr. Cowden's treatment that lias lifted the dark
nets and blight of the word "incurable" from
hundreds of thousands of these caes of diseases
in the Throat, Ilronchial Tubes and Lungs, works
its curatie action for two reasons:
(1) It reaches every sore spot, from ,the orifice,
of the note tp the deepest part of the lungs, to the
innermost recesses of the middle ear.
(2) Instead of irritating, inflaming, and feeding"
the fires of the disease, it soothes," quiets, heals
and cures.
What is the treatment that cures these condi
tions, once regarded incurable? I!y what process
I docs it restore the diseased membrane, remove the
poison and relieve the soreness of disease? Let the
experience of persons cured and being cured tell.
.HOW IT CURES
COnliiON CATARRH.
Here is a patient taking treatment for Catarrh
in tho Head. He breathes the soothing medication
through his nostrils, and the nasal channels open
up, the stufftd-up feeling in the head leaves, ar.d
he can breathe naturally through the nos: a.;aiu.
The dull pains acres the front of the head fade
away, and the nasal membrane is soothed until
inflammation and soreness arc all gone. The bad
odor of the breath pases away, and the lost sense
of smell returns. The dropping in the throat is
checked, the no'-e does not top up toward night
any mere, the sneezing and snulhng have ceased,
the discharge from the nose -grows less and less
and finally stops altogether. The disease has been
checked and eradicated from the system before it
ever reached the throat. It has not been driven
down into the throat or into his lunt;s or into his
ears, as is so often done by other treatments.
HOW IT CURES
CATARRH OF THE THROAT.
Hero is another patient who had Catarrh in the
Head. He caught cold after cold, and the disease
spread down into his throat. , He breathes and
drinks in the disease-banishing medication. It
bathes the membranes of his head and throat.
The soreness of the head and throat becomes less
and the desire to hawk and spit is disappearing,
the sense of tate is returning, and the voice again
becomes soft and melodious. There is no more
gagging and vomiting in the morning. No longer
docs every exposure to the weather result in a
stuffed-up tin oat that becomes sore and inflamed,
and no longer does he find his throat and tongue
dry as chips when lit wakes from an unrefrcshing
sleep.
HOW IT CURES
CATARRHAL DEAFNESS.
Here is another patient who for years had been
a sufferer. Even- fresh cold seemed to Tta.v longer
than former colds, and he noticed that his cars
got stopped up and his hearing became duller and
duller and there were ringing and buzzing noises
in his ears. The catarrh had pacd upward and
backward from the throat along the eustachian
tubes leading from the throat into the car. He
had visited throat doctors and car doctors and
catarrh doctors without relief. In this condition
we find him inhaling the never-failing medication,
and soon he notices a change. The noises in the
ear stop, there is no more discharge, the hearing
gets better, and finally the tulcs of the ears open
up and something seems to give way in the head.
His hearing had completely returned. No wonder
he considers the result a marvel.
$5.00 A MONTH.
This rate applies to all patients and all diseases,
includes all medicines, visits to office, examination
and treatment. This rate entitles every patient
to Doctor Cowden's personal attention, and in all
cases of Deafness to Doctor McCoy's almost mi
raculous treatment for the deaf, it secures for
each applicant the most modern, scientific and
I curative treatment known to medicine in case3 of
1 a catarrhal nature. Itheumatism, Kidney diseases
and Skin diseases given the same careful atten
tion. In fact, everything is done that is possible
for these physicians to do in even- case desiring
treatment, ilie moderate ice 01 ?a docs not de
tract in any manner from the value of the atten
tion given.
TRIAL TREATA1ENT FREE.
That all may have an adequate and correct idea
of the 3IcCoy treatment, the wonderful results of
which arc attracting the attention of the whole
country. Doctor Cowden has generously arranged
for a limited time to give all applicants on
their first visit a Trial Treatment Free. This is
purely for educational purposes. In a few years
this treatment will be in general adoption by the
profession, and it is the desire of its dis-covercrs
that it be seen and noted by as many people as
possible in the offices of the National Practice
which Doctor McCoy has instituted in Washing
ton. Don't wait for some friend to get cured,
but call and have a free trial in your own case.

THINK IT A SUICIDE.
Seventeenth Street Sciver
to Be
Dragged Today.
The crew of the police steamer will
drag the basin at the foot of Seventeenth
Street this morning for the body of a
young white man who is believed to have
committed suicide there about 5 o'clock
yesterday evening.
At that hour the supposed suicide, on
his way to the basin, which is nine or ten
feet deep, passed Charles Coleman and
George F. Peed, boys, who live at No.
930 Baptist Alley northwest. He turned
to the boys and asked if they wanted a
shirt. Being answered in the negative,
the unknown young man was seen to un
dress. He then suddenly disappeared and
the boys believe he sprang overboard into
the basin.
The clothing was found piled on the
river bank and taken to the Twelfth
Street Police Station by Samuel Furt
ner, of No. 1407 E Street northwest, where
it was examined by Detective Kilmartin.
The articles found were a blue bicycle
cap with leather front, black and white
striped negligee shirt, black satin necktie,
a well-worn black cutaway coat, black
checked pants and fancy black vest, with
white polka dots. A small notebook found
in one of the coat pockets Indicates that
the young man Hold newspapers to news
boys. On one of its pages is an account
for New York papers with a newsboy
named Pryor, dated April 15; also a re
ceipt for $10 from Eddie Rusie; the names
of several race horses and that of Nick
Johnson, a race horse owner.

Several I'ieceH of Valuable .Tewelry
TaUen From His Residence.
Headquarters detectives wore called up
on yesterday to investigate a robbery re
cently committed at No. 1400 Massachu
setts Avenue, the home of Dr. T. De Witt
Talmage, the well-known clergyman. Dr.
and Mrs. Talmage are out of the city, but
the house is in charge of their two
daughters. This morning they discovered
that some thief had entered one of the
bed chambers and stolen a lady's .open
face watch, studded with pearls, valued
tit ?C5; a pearl pin, valued at ?20, and a
ruby-set necklace, valued at $10. The
articles were taken from a jewelry box.
An investigation failed to show that the
house had been broken into, and Miss
Daisy Talmage explained that she had not
seen the jewelry for several days.
I was reading an advertisement of
Chamberlain's Coljc, Cholera and Diar

any remedy equal to it for colic and
