THE CELEBRATED
INDIAN PHYSICIAN.

DIR. Punly has practiced for s5 years, and is
a regular graduate of 2 different schools, and
has been with different tribes Of Indians;
each tribe from to years: Wyandots, in
| Ohio;sMOhawks and Crows west of the Rocky
Mountains, and from his long experience in
the practice oil Medicine, and his thorough
knowledge of all the Vegetable Preparations,
feels confident that he can cure all classes of
Chronic Diseases that he meets with. Thou
sands of patients, that other doctors have Civ
en- up have been cured by DIR. Purdy, and are
now enjoying good health, the blessing God
designed they should enjoy. / have a large
and successful practice-am well experienced
in the profession, therefore understand the
properties and uses of vegetable compounds,
and as an Indian Doctor, / am happy to say
that all who come under my system of treat
ment think it wonderful how l can eradicate
the worst forms of chronic diseases. The case
is simply this. / want but to look at the pa
tient before me to tell him or her what ails
them, and all their symptoms and the cause Of
their ailment. That being done, all reasonable
minds will say that the worst obstacle is sur
mounted, simply because it is not guess work,
but 4 perfect knowledge. The Doctor pre-
pares all his own medicines, adapted for each
and every disease, which have never failed to
give the best satisfaction. 1 give no minerals
whatever, but a substitute tar superior.
In the treatment of diseases, reject the use
of all mineral or poisonous drugs. use moth
ing but vegetable medicine, and that is free
from poison. Instead of reducing the system,
L invigOrate the constitution, remove the
cause of the disease and thus get rid of the
disease, even the most delicate constitution,
although inflicted with the most inveterate
diseases, will not be impaired by my treat
ment. Nature, in her boundless sufliciency,
has provided a remedy for every disease to
which the human flesh is heir, and each reme-
dy may be found in that region to which the
disease is peculiar; it is to the knowledge of
this fact, added to q athOrough understanding
owe my success in medicine. Thousands are
annually sent to premature graves, not for
want of medicine, but for the want of the
proper kind. During the time you are under

of my condition, came to see me. He begged of |
Dr. Martin, the surgeon in charge, far the |
privilege ofputting me under a course of Physio |
medical treatment. At last the surgeon said: |
'.Y on can rob him of but few hours, anyhow, |
as he cannot live but "a hours longer" In less |
