Sdved by Neuropathy. The Best Physicians Had (liven Him Up But Neuorpathy Cured Him. Mr. Henry A. Ghroce, one of the pio­ neer residents of Elgin, 111., was saved from a terrible and lingering death, from dropsy and heart disease by means of the wonderful discovery of Neuro­ pathy, which teaches that derangements of the brain centers are the principal causes of many diseases. He says: "It *8 about five years since I tooh Dr. Miles' Neuropathic Treatment for drop­ sy and heart disease. My conditiou was extremely critical. I experienced great difficulty in breathing and could not lie down without smothering. Mj limos and body were badly swollen and I became very weak. I had been undei treatment by the best physicians of El gin, and was growing worse every day. L'hey could do nothing to relieve me, and, in fact, gave me up to die. "As soon as I consulted Dr. Miles be 'showed me that my doctors had faileu to understand my case and said he could treiiTh^e. It was wonderful how soon relief came. It was almost instantan­ eous. I was soon a well man. The cure was truiy wonderful, considering my age, which was 70 at that time. I am now seventy-six-years old, and able to enjoy tife." Mr. Groce is only one of the many hundreds of remarkable cures effected by Dr. Miles' dii«oovery regarding the ' Brain Centers." The Doctor's reputa­ tion as a specialist is national. His Heart and Dropsy Cure is a marvel. Every person afflicted with disease of the heart, stomach, kidneys, nerves or dropsy, which often implicate each case, should send the Doctor a description of his case, and-he will send you one thous­ and testimonials, his book and $2.60 treatment free.

We have undoubtedly reached the cli­ max in ease and style in garmentsre> Coats, body and over, are comfortably roomy, and trousers decidly easy at the hips and through the legs, fitting close oyer the shoe at the instep. Though the shoulders are broad and full the natural width of th» shoulders has supplanted the bulging fullness of artificial padding, and the unnatur&t ^ Hercules proportions are reduced to give a graceful contour and manly digulty. ( ollars and lapels are broad- S er and shorter, so as to be in keeping with the increased <width and length of the garment. The notch points of la- "jt pels are rounded, even to bluntness, a * welcome change from the pointed cor­ ners which always have a tendency to curl outward after a few weeks' wear_ Even the lapels on some of the double breasted sacks 1 have seen have the "step" corners quite blunt, a Style I admire more than the wide, sharp- pointed re vera now rather common.
