Let Every Man be Judged According to bis
Deserts-If he does Good let him have
the Credit of it.
BY DIR. V. CLARENCE PRICE.


Some ten years ago l established offices at
most of the places which | now visit, and
during the whole of that time have never
failed but in one instance, and that from an
accident, to regularly visit those offices every
two months. During this time many doctors
making great pretension to medical skill
have been on my route, but not one of those
who started with me now remains have out
lived them al, AND can truthfully say that
have perfected more permanent cures OF
persons afflicted with chronic ailments than
all of them together. Persons need no take

Most of the diseases which treat are these

An intelligent public must see that those
who make chronic diseases special treat
ment must be better prepared to successfully
handle them than one who devotes his time
to local or acute maladies. 1t certainly
seeras most reasonable to suppose that he
who devotes his whole energies to one subject
