They are treating CatNrTh on a new system which

Their consultations for years have averaged
from five to seven thousand year, which gives
them an experience unsurpassed by any, and
equalled only By few.
We wish it DisrISCTLY understood that DR..
KNAPP is NOT Il TraveIing Physician. He on.
LY visits few places OCCASIONALLY, t. accom- r.
modate his numerous patients who cannot con-
vENIENTLY visit him in Chicago.
EsiJ~ Remember they do not promise to cure all
stages of disease. While all the diseases are cur
able, if taken in season, all stages are not. Your
case may be curabIe thSs week, not next-to-da
not tomorrow hence the danger Of delay.
