When I called on Dr. Addision Tones
in November 1908,1 had been unable to
work for months and was so weak I
could hardly be about at times. Only
weighed 112 pounds.- Doctors had told
me there was no help for me and that
I did not have long to live. Dr. Jones
told me he would do his best as he felt
there was hope. In six months after
beginning treatment I weighed 140
pounds, cough practically gone and 1
began to do light work. Have not
taken medicine for six months, am
working regularly and now feel in per
fect health. 1 believe Dr. Jones pro
longed my life and thank him for it.

EDITOR TRANSCRIPT:
It is with pleasure that I embrace
the opportunity to write a short letter
about Spokane, for it is a subject about

and it has been a period of wonderful
growth. When I first saw Spokane*
Jan. 7tb, 1900, it was an overgrown
country village the census showing
about 36,000 inhabitants. During a
period of ten years we advanced from
the position of 180th city in the U. S.
