A Mammoth Establishment and an En-
terprising Proprietor.


It is hardly necessary for us to call atten-
ton to the whole page communication from
DIR. r. V. PIERCE, of the Worlds DISPENSE
ry. which appears Ia this issue, as at least
every invalid suffering from Chronic Disease
must see and take a lively interest in the
sound, common-sense ideas therein set forth,
as well as in the indisputable evidences of
the wonderful cures that are given.
Buffalo has several business establishments
of which she may justly feel proud, but few,
if any indeed, that has acquired such world
wide fame and reputation as that of DR..
PIERCE. The Worlds Dispensary." This
establishment well merits its appellation,
" The Worlds Dispensary," as it is, without
doubt, the largest and most complete of its
kind that can be found anywhere, and medi-
cines are prepared within its walls that find a
ready sale in every quarter of the globe. In
fact the foreign trade forms no small part of
the business.
visit to the shipping department, which
is on the first floor, gives one slight idea of
the colossal proportions of the business there
transacted. Here the visitor my see, as we
did, huge piles of boxes being shipped to
wholesale houses in every part of the land,
also to foreign countries-even China and
Japan contributing to the demand for these
popular medicines. The Doctor has achieved
this immense patronage and demand for his
celebrated remedies by his great skill as a
physician, the superior curative virtues of
the remedies he has discovered and his hon.
orable dealings, indomitable will and cease
less industry. The cures that he has effected
have often been wonderful, in fact almost
miraculous, having frequently been effected,
as he has shown us by ample evidence, after
many eminent physicians in succession had
failed. This success has had the effect to
give him an immense practice at the Worlds
Dispensary. so that, in single month"; he
probably treats and cures more cases of in
veterate Chronic Diseases, than most physi-
clans, in ordinary practice, treat in a whole
lifetime. His practice has become so large
that he is obliged TO employ four physicians
to assist him in the examination and treat
ment of cases. And in the selection of his
professional assistants he has spared no ex-
pense to secure men of thorough medical ed
ucation, and who have been well skilled in
the school of experience. Each devotes his
whole time and attention to speciality, while
DIR. PIERCE, who has not only received de-
grees from at least two of the first Medical
Colleges in the land, the evidence of which,
IN the shape of Diplomas, we noticed hang
ing in his office, but has also the advantage of
an immense experience, is in constant con-
sultation with them over the more difficult
cases. Thus the patient has not only the BEN

also that of Council Of Physicians, each
skilled in his particular speciality. Besides
all these assistant physicians, in the dispense
~ department are also employed short

and dispensing or drug clerks, each skilled in
his business, that the Doctors prescriptions
may be compounded with the greatest care.
Whoever has observed, as we have, the crowd
of patients, almost constantly in the recep-
ton rooms, at the Worlds Dispensary, and
has heard the heartfelt expressions of graft
tude and praise which they lavishly bestow
upon the honorable and worthy proprietor,
cannot fail to agree with us that the diligent
medical devotion, patient industry and uneon-
querable energy that have enabled DIR.
PIERCE to achieve so much, have at the same
time conferred real blessing upon suffering
humanity. We publish the above, not as a
paid puff" but as only fair representation
