Wondcrs OF Modern science.

The perfect accuracy with which
scientists are enabled to deduce the
most minute particulars in their seye-
raj departments, appears almost mi
raculous If we view it in the light OF
the early ages. Take for example the
electromagnetic telegraph-the great
est invention of the aye. Il ii not a
marvellous degree of accuracy which
enables an operator to erdcftg locate a
fracture in a submarine cable nearly
three thousands miles long, Our VEN
cradle clerk of the weather has be-
come so thoroughly familiar with
those most maynard elements of
nature that he can accurately predict
their movements. He can sit in
Washington and foretell what the
weather will be tomorrow in Florida
or new York, as well AS ifseveral hun
bred miles did not intervene between
him and the places named. And so in
all departments of modern science,
what Is required il the knowledge of
certain signs. From these the scientists
deduce accurate conclusion regardless
OF distance. 4 few fossils sent 10 the
expert geoligist enable him to accu-
rately determine the rock formation
from which they We're taken. lie can
describe il you as perfectly rs II a
cleft of il were lying on Unstable. So
also the chemist can determine the
constitution of the sun as accurately
"a If that luminary were not ninety
five million of miles from his labora-
tory. The sun sends certain signs
over the ''intinitude of space" and the
chemist CLASHES them 10y passing
them through the spectroscope. Only
the presence of certain substances
could produce these solar signs. SO
also, i'm medical science, diseases have
certain unmistakable signs, or symp-
toms, and by reason of this fact, DIR.
Pierce, OF the Worlds Dispensary, has
been enabled To originate and perfect
4 system of determining, with the
greatest accuracy, the nature of chron-
ic diseases without seeing and person
ally examining his patients. He has
spared neither pains nor expense To
associate with himself, as the Faculty
of the World Dispensary, large num-
Der Of medical gentlemen of rare at
tainments and skill-graduates from
some of the most famous Medical Col
Icges and Universities of both Europe
and America. BY aid of DIR. Picrce's
system of diagnosis, these physicians
and surgeons annually treat, with
the most gratifying success, many
thousands of invalids without ever
seeing them i'm person. In recognize
ing diseases without n personal cx-
animation of the patient they claim to
possess no miraculous powers. They
attain their knowledge of the patients
disease by the practical application of
well established principles of modern
science to the practice of medicine.
And il Is to the accuracy with which
this system has endowed them that
they owe their almost worldwide rep
utation for the skillful treatment ofall
lingering or chronic affections. This
system of practice and the marvellous
success which has been attained
through il, demonstrate the fact that
disease display certain phenomena,
which being subjected to scientific an
alysis or synthesis, furnish abundant
and unmistakaI,le data to guide the
Judgment of the skillful practitioner
Alright in determining the nature Of
discasesed conditions. The amplcst
resources for treating lingering or
chronic diseases, and the greatest skill
are thus placed within the easy reach
Of every invalid, however distant he
or she may reside from the physicians
makings the treatment of such aflec-
tons speciality. The peculiarities Of
this scientific system of practice are
fully explained i'm the Appendix of
''The peoples Common Sense Medical
Adviser. "a book of over nine hun
bred large pages, which Is so popular
as to have reached sale of almost
one hundred thousand copies within
few months of its first publication.
