WHAT A GERMAN NEWSPAPER SAYS.

We Germans are in general not inclined TO be-
liere at once in great announcements and pulls,
we are rather suspicious, and often with perfect
right OF eXaggeratiOns and humbugs. Our
motto is, What the eye sees the heart believes"
and we therefore desire to see and examine our.
selves before we speak about things and praise
them This was our idea when we heard and
read so much about DR.. $. A. Richmonds Justly
celebrated Worlds Epilepuc Institute, and we
therefore sent reporter to the building, We are
now able TO give the best information on the
subject based on personal review and eNam-
nation of the premises.

The doctor kindly received him. and not only
answered all his questions, but showed and ox
planned everything about the place TO him. His
office Is on the first floor of the building, and It's

porter recognized many of his own countrymen

About ten years ago Dr.. Richmond came to ST.
Joseph. He was then poor young man, with
but little money, and no friends to assist him.
He rented small Office on Francis street. and
commenced the struggle for success single
handed and alone He has achieved a grand
triumph, in the face of stubborn opposition on
every hand, and is to-day one of the woalthiest
men In our midst. This fact alone is amply suil'
Cent to show the merits of his invaluable pre-
paration. even though there were no other
sources from which to procure valid and reliable
testimony,
But besides the money which this great medi-
cine has been the means of bringing to the in
ventor the doctor receives daily the blessings of
thousands of patients restored TO health and
happiness through his instrumentality. These
