Relying on testimonials written in vivid
glowing language of some miraculous cures
made by some largely pulled up doctor or
patent medicine has fastened thousands to
their graves; believing in their almost in
sane faith that the same miracle will be
performed on them, and that these testi-
monials make the cures, while the so called
medicine is all the time fastening them to

FEES OF DOCTORS.

The fee of doctors is an item that very
many persons are interested in. We be-
lieve the schedule for visits is $500, which
would tax man confined to his bed for a
year, and in need of daily visit, over
$1,000 a year for medical attendance alone !!
And one single bottle of Hop Bitters taken
in time would save the $1,000 and all the
years sickness.
