The office proper comprises three rooms immediately at the head of the stairs.

The operating room and labora tory is one which fills visitor with surprise immediately upon entering. It containes, among other modern inventions, a Nebulizer with all the latest improvements. This complicated machine is used for the treatment of catarrh, bronchial and lung diseases and affections of the eye, ear and head.

The third and last room of the office is luxuriously furnished and is used for the accomodation of out of town patients. In all of the rooms diplomas, certificates and credentials of merit are generally displayed and visit to this temple of health will satisfy the most skeptical that Dr. Burfield is a man who is thoroughly acquainted with the different details of his profession. Persons in need of treatment for any disease of the throat, lungs, eye, ear, stomach or female complaints will do well to call upon the Burfield Sanitarium, Many a fair young child, whose pallor has, puzzled the mother, until she has suspected rightly her darling was troubled with worms, has regained the rosy hue of health with a few doses of White's Cream Vermifnge.

Clifford Wilhite of Emporia, and Miss Bertha Bixler of Americas, were married by Probate Judge, McDonald at the court last Tuesday afternoon.

They congregated on the second floor of the court house armed with a good supply ofammunition, but the young people showed their clevaeness by climbing out of the window and were out of reach before the boys could get in their work.

K. P. D. A NEWS SERVICE WITHOUT A PARALLEL. There is ample justification for the claim made by The Chicago Record-Herald that its readers enjoy every day in the week, Sunday included, a news service that is without parallel in range and completeness.

In addition to the independent news facilities of both papers, The Record receives the complete news service of the New York Herald, The New York Tribune and The Associated Press; and when it is considered that itsnews columns aresupplemented by all the special features so popular in The Chicago Record and The Chicago TimesHerald, it will be seen that The Record Herald holds a unique place among the great newspapers of the United States.
