WONDERS or MODERN SCIENCE.

The perfect accuracy with which scientist
are enabled TO deduce the most minute par
ticulars in their several departments appears
almost miraculous II we view II in the light
OF the early ages Take for exempie the
electromagnetic telegraph-the greatest in

degree OF accuracy which enables an opera
tor to exactly locate fracture In q sub
marine cable nearly three thousand miles
long? Our venerable "clerk Of the weather
has become SO thoroughly femiliar with those
most wayward elements Of nature that he can
accurately predict their movements He can
sit in Washington md foretell what the
weather will be tomorrow in Florida or New
York, as well as II several hundred miles

ern science, what Is required is the knowl.
eye of certain signs. From these the sciep
lists deduce accurate conclusions regardless
Of distance. A few fossils sen. to the expert
geologist enable him to accurately determine
the rock formation from which they were
taken. He can describe 1t to you ~ perfectly

also the chemist can determine the constitu-

mnary were not ninety.fve million miles

signs over the "nfnitude Of space" and the
| chemist elassifies them bv passing them
through the spectroscope. Only the presence
OF certain substances could produce these
solar signs. So also, in medical science. dis.
eases have certain unmistakabl signs, or
symptoms, and by reason Of this fact, DR..
Pierce, of the Worlds Dspensary, has been
enabled TO originate and perfect a system OF
determining, with the greatest accuracy, the
nature Of chronic diseases without seeing
aud personally examining his patients. He
| has spared neither pains nor expense to rs
sociate with himself, as the Faculty of the
Worlds Dispensary, large number OF med
| ical gentlemen OF rare attainments and skill
graduates from some OF the most famous
Medical Colleges and Universities of both
Europe and America. BY aid OF Dr. Pierce's
system Of diagnosis, these physicians and
surgeons annually treat, with the most graft
fying success, many thousands of invalid.
without ever seeing them in person. In
recognizing diseases without personal ex
animation OF the patient they claim to pos
sess no miraculous powers. They attain theil
knowledge Of the patients disease by the
practical application Of well established
principles OF modern science to the practice
Of medicine. And it is to the accuracy with
which this system has endowed them tha
