PITTSBURGH'S GREATEST SURGEON.
WILL VISIT BUTLER, Pa, AND PRACTICE AT
THE LOWRY HOUSE FOR ONE WEEK FROM
MONDAY MORNING, MAY % TO SAT-
URDAY EVENING, MAY 2S, 1881.
This is good news to his numerous patients in
this county, rs well as to the army of afflicted
and crippled sufferers who could not well visit
him in Pittsburgh. DR.. lIartman's permanent
Office il ut 307 Penn avenue. which will be left
in charge of one of his able assistant surgeons
during his brief absence, and sojourn with us.
In order TO remind our numerous readers of the
doings of DR.. Hartman we will reproduce the
following from the Pittsburgh papers:
ellis operations for Strabismus (cross eyes,
can be counted by the hundreds and every ono
successful and so with other operations. Few
surgeons have as many in a life time. IL is
this wholesale surgery and practice that makes
him 40 pre-eminently successful. The certIi
Gates and testimonials that he has the privilege
of publishing of patients treated here would
fill our paper for whole week but hundreds
of them are the same as those already publish
cd in these columns.
To convince the reader of DIR. Hartman's
claim upon us when sick, we need only TO re-
call the names of a few cases well known to us
whom he rescued from the very brink OF the
grave.
Mrs Milo Ingram, daughter of Capt Hugh
Mckelvey, OF this city, had been treated SIX
years for cancer by the most eminent physi-
New York aud other cities. She had spent
over one Thousand dollars with great medical
experts and was told that she must die. Her
limbs and body were literally covered with
running sores and halfdetached masses of flesh;
nearly blind and deal and barely living. DIR.
Hartman was consulted, ard declared it was no
cancer, but scrofula, and proved 1t by curing
her without the knife and without any painful
external applications. Every sore is healed
she sees and hears perfectly, and is now in
every particular the very model of good health.
She now resides at 430 Eebecca street, a le-
gheny City. Go and see her.
Willie Curtis, II years of age, now working
in III. X. Porters * Co.'s Locomotive Works. in
this city had been afflicted with Chronic Rheu-
matism for one year, unable to work, his joints
much enlarged, painful and stiff. The bones
of one side of the face were enormously en-
larged, giving him most hideous appearance.
His heart was diseased with l70 beats in a
minute he was emanciated, pale and almost dy-
ing. Two eminent Pittsburgh physicians as
sured his mother that the end was near. DIR.
Hartman was consulted, and Immediately
placed under his treatment, and in six weeks
he was well and ever since he has been ut
work. Go and see him, call on his mother on
his employer and on his pastor, and you Will.
say the half has not been told.
ANOTHER.
The Pittsburgh Sunday Leader of October
srd tells of boy the son of Mr.. G. w. Logue,
year ago, with a vertical curvature Of the
spine, and in spite Of the efforts OF several
physicians grew rapidly worse AMI was soon
powerless and unable to walk from paralysis
of his legs. He continued so eight months,
and was considered by all physicians within
their reach most hopelss case.
DR.. Hartman was consulted, who applied an
apparatus to his back, rapidly straighten-
ing him. and in exactly eight days he COM
menced to walk. II two months since DR..
Hartman took hold of the case, and in that
time the improvement in the little patients
condition has been great that from a deiorm-
ed and helpless being he is become bright
and active child with shape perfectly natural
and an equal chance of happiness and useful
ness in after life with other children.
The happy restoration Of their child TO health
is the cause of much joy 10 the parents who
are deeply grately TO DR.. Hartman for his SER
vice.
We think these references to cases, within the
reach Of everyone 10 visit, are sufficient TO con
vince all persons afflicted that DR.. Hartman
stands at the head of his profession.
