 A Mammoth Establishment and an
 EnterprisIng Proprietor.

It is hardly necessary for us to call attention to ths whole page communication from Dr. R. V. Pierce, of the Worlds Dispensary, which appears in this issue, as at least every invalid suffering from Chronic Diseases must sec and take a lively interest in the sound, common sense ideas therein set forth, well as In the indisputable evidences of 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 reputation as that of Dr. Pierce" The Worlds Dispensary." This establishment well merits it's appellation "The Worlds Dispen- sary," as it is, without doubt, the largest and most complete of it's kind that can be found anywhere and medicines are prepared within its walls that find ready sale in every quarter of the globe. In fact the foreign trade forms no small part of the business.
 l A 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 may zee, as we did, | large piles of boxes being shipped to wholesale houses in every part of the land, also to for l eign countries China and Japan contrl- | outing to the demand for these popular medi- cines. The Doctor has achieved this immense patronage and demand for his celebrated remedies by his great skill as physician, the | superior curative virtues of the remedies he has discovered, and his honorable dealings, in domitable will and ceaseless industry The cures that he has effected have Nften been wonderful, in fact. almost miraculous, having frequently been effected, as he has shown us l by ample evidence after many eminent physi- clans 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 inveterate Chronic Diseases than most physicians, in ordinary practice, treat in & whole lifetime. His practice has become so large that he is obliged to employ four physi- clans to assist him in the examination and treatment of cases. And in the selection of his professional assistants he has spared no | expense to secure men of thorough medical education, and who have been well skilled in the school of experience. Each devotes his whole time and attention to speciality, while Dr. Pierce, who has not only received degrees from at least two of the first Medical Colleges in the land, the evidence of which, in the shape of Diplomas, we noticed hanging in his office, but has also the advantage of an immense ex- perience, is in constant consultation with them over the more difficult cases. Thus the patient has not only the benefit of Dr. Pierce's large experience, but also that of & Councilo of Phy- icians, each skilled in his particular speciality. Besides all these assistant physicians. in the dispensary department are also employed a shorthand reporter, to assist in correspon- dence, and dispensing or drug clerks, each skilled in his business, that the Doctors pre- scriptions may be compounded with the great est care. Whoever has observed, as we have, the crowd of patients almost constantly in the reception rooms at the Worlds Dispensary and has heard the heartfelt expressions ot gratitude and praise which they lavishly be. stow upon the honorable and worthy proprie tor, cannot fail to agree with us that the dili. gent medical devotion, patient industry and unconquerable energy that have enabled Dr. Pierce to achieve so much, have at the same time conferred real blessing upon suffering humanity We publish the above, not as { "paid puff" but as only fair representation of one of the first business men of the land whose fame is becoming world-renowned, ant whose enterprise contributes in no small de gree to the prosperity of the city, giving em ployment to large numbers, and in other vari ous ways promoting the general welfare of tho people.-Com,.
