,vs.e Successful Physician.

There is probably no man to whom the com
muniiy owe so much as to the honest. fair
spoken physician, who does bis actual duty
both TO himself and to his patients. Really
skillful physicians are not 50 numerous that
their virtues need no mention, and hence the
advertisement of DR.. R. V. Pierce, Of Buffalo,
may well claim the readers attention. DR..
Pierce is a type of a class of men who obtain
success by careful and well-directed effort, not
attempting too much, or creating false IDEAS as
to ability. The only reliable physician IN
these days of complicated disorders and high
pressure living is the " Specialist the man
who understands bis one branch Of the busi-
ness. Such in his line is DR.. Pierce. For the
benefit OF his readers he has written " Com
mon Sense Medical Adviser" which is well
worth reading by those who need such a work.
With strict business honor. high professional
skill, reasonable fees, and large corps of COM
peteut assistants, DR.. Pierce will doubtless
make his name familiar as " household words.
