PLAIN TALK
To Iuvalids and the Public:


To Invalids and the Public:
DR.. A. NJ. French. formerly Of New York
City, respectfully announces that he has resum.
cd practice. and will, for many years to come,
visit monthly nearly all of the principal cities
of the Union at stated periods for treatment OF
all forms Of chronic disease. Having just res
turned from Europe where he has for the past
TEN YEARS been devoting his time exclusively
to the treatment of patients in the principal
hospitals in France, England and Germany, he
can assure the afflicted that in all chronic dis
eases he can safely be relied upon. Among the
chronic ailments which he cures he would men,
ton the following. s-e
ALI diseases of the Liver, usually called Liver
Complaint, all affections of the Lungs, such as
Consumption, Coughs, bronchitis, Loss of Voice.
Sore Throat, Asthma, etc., etc; Dyspepsia, or
Sourness Of the Stomach after meals, Splitting
up of Food, Belching of Wind. Constipation OF
the Bowels, Sick Headache, Neuralgia in every
form, all affections Of the Kidneys and Bladder
Rheumatism. Dropsies Palpitation of the Heart,
Epilepsy or Fits, Scrofula, all diseases of the
Blood, Eruptions Salt Rheum, GeneI =; Debiii
ty, Nervousness, and aiIdiseases peculiar to the
Female system.
Having, as above stated, made all the above
and their kindred complaints long lite study,
and having seen, personally examined and trea-
ted successfully hundreds of cases afflicted with
each variety of these diseases, Dr. French feels
confident that in offering his services to the af
fcted world in this way, he is simply acting in
the line of duty. He has no desire to be any
thing less than STRICTLY HONORABLE with all
who may seek his aid, and will therefore still
adhere to the rule he adopted in early life, new
er to fatter the sick and inspire hopes Of recov>
cry. unless the case admits of no doubt in that
respect. Many cases being 1NcURABLE, and
he does not wish to pat any of this class to ex-
pense, he has devised a way in which his opin-
ion may be obtained free of charge. The par
ticuiars in regard to this will be given under the
head of "Waste of Time.'' All persons who
may think of consulting DR.. French, should
read this whole column before calling on him
personally, or making UP their minds what is
best for them to do. The sick are so often dis
appointed in their search for means of relief--so
often fattered by the dishonest and inspired
with hopes that were never realized-that it is
not matter Of wonder that they have in many
instances grown sick at heart and yielded to
despair. DR.. French will deal honorably with
ALL, believing that always to be the best policy.
His fees for treatment will be reasonable, and
effected, and his charge for medicines will be
only what they cost him. His appointments
are as follows:
NEW YORK CITY, the first day of each
month.
PHILADELPHIA, PENN, the second day
of each month.
BALTIMORE, MARYLAND. the third day
of each month
WASHINGTON. D. c., the fourth day
each month.
PITTSBURGH, PENN, the sixth day OF
each month.
CLEVELAND, OHIO, the seventh day Of
each month.
COLUMBUS OHIO, the eighth day of each
month.
CINCINNATI, OHIO, the ninth day of each
month.
LOUISVILLE KY, the eleventh day of
each month.
ST. LOUIS. MO, the thirteenth day of each
month
DUBUQUE, IOWA. the fifteenth day of each

CHICAGO, ILL, the seventeenth day of

each month.

GTThe names Of the hotels at which DIR
French will stop while visiting the foregoing
cities have not bseu inserted because he must
necessarily change them from time to time
The omission is uniInportant however as all
nat red to hot
coming to see him and in his reply the name OF
the Hotel will be given. See the article below
headed Waste of Tiine.'l
DR.. F.'s object in making the foregoing visits
is to afford all parsons a less expensive means
of treatment than if they compelled to
travel many hundreds of miles for that purpose.
