:. The afflicted of our community will be
glad to learn that this celebrated natural
healer is on visit to Davenport. He Great
ed intense excitement in Chicago, and in
fact, every place he had visited, by his re-
markable cures. The. following is among
he many favorable notices he has received
as7AAi from Chicago Times.I
One of the most remarkable individuals
in the city at the present is DR.. P. Duval.
the celebrated natural healer and. practising
physician. He is especially remarkable as
respects the marvellous cures which he effects
in the practice of his profession. He came
to Chicago with a reputation acquired in
other cities as the most effective healing
physician of modern times, and, since his
advent here, this reputation has been mater
ially enhanced by his wonderful and miracu-
lous cures. At his healing institute every
day may be seen multitudes afflicted with
all the ills that flesh is heir to, seeking the
doctors advice, and experiencing the relief
which his peculiar treatment affords. 1t is
this mode of treatment which constitutes the
peculiar feature of the doctors practice; he
merely lays his hands upon or over the part
or parts where the disease exists, and, as if
by magic, pain and disease disappear. In
ordinary cases. one or two treatments is suf
icient to effect a cure !; but, in aggravated
cases, of course, longer treatment is required
and greater regard paid to hygenic agen
cies. Some of his cures are instantaneous,
and in many instances the blind, the deaf,
the epileptic, the consumptive and the Grip
pie have been restored to perfect health with
a few treatments. Of course the permanen-
cy OF such cures demand an imperative re-
gard for correct habits afterward. The
most remarkable feature in DR.. Duvals
method of cure, is the entire absence of
medicinal agents or instruments. The cavi-
Ter may sneer at such system, but its nov
city and benign results are the best reasons
why 1t should be tried. The writer of this
visited the healing institute at "A Adams
street, preiudiced against the mode of treat
ment prevailing in the establishment, bet
the wonders which he there saw and the
miraculous cures effected, compelled him to
regard DR.. Duval as one of the most wonder
full of men, and his method of removing pain
and disease the most marvellous in vogue
There might been seen patient whose
body was one exhibit of cicatrices from III
cerous sores. He had spent thousands OF
dollars in his endeavors to cure himself, but,
until he placed himself under DIR. Duval's
care, he experienced no relief Now he is
rapidly recovering; the sores have ceased
running, and are healing. Another patient,
a female, who for. years has suffered from
female weaknesses, underline doctors treat
ment has recovered health, and gaining dai-
~ in strength. A patient named ]. j. Wa
terman has for years been subject of asth-
matte consumption. He consulted DIR. Du-
val, and after two treatments the pain in the
chest was removed. and to-day none of the
accompanying evidence of this dreadful dis
ease are discernible. These are but a few
of the results of the doctors beneficial iabors
in this city hundreds of instances might be
adduced. This is an age of wonders, but
the most wonderful man in Chicago to-day
is Or. Ddsal, OF the Natural Healing Insti-
tute. He invites examination of his treat
ment, and the curious as wellsas the aaicted
should visit him. A visit to his place, win
well repay the afflicted. < 4 gzr
