one, and, were it not for the brace, with
out limping Everyone who has seen me
pronounces il wonderful and at once
recognizes your ability, and several say
they are going to place Themselves under

live 10 relieve the many thous9nds who
will seek your aid in the years to come.

DR.. s. n. Hartman:
One year ago our little daughters right
foot, after treatment for two years and a
half with the best surgeons in Tennessee,
was still very badly dciormed. At the
time of your visit 10 Franklin last Novcm-
Der, put her under your treatment The
two appliances furnished by you have
acted like q charm, and the foot Is now all
right. Your method OF treating such
cases is something remarkable, being alb.
solutoly eiIectual without giving the least
pain and without the use OF the knife
You are at liberty 10 use this card in any

The following letter is from one Of his
patients who has been suffering for five
years from hip joint disease. Her leg was
ileNcd forward 10 such an extent that she
could not get II TO the floor, except by
walking ON her hands aud feet. She had
old running bone ulcers at the hip, and
suffered much pain. Physicians and surg
cons from all over the Northwest had pro.
nOunccd her ease utterly hopeless, and a..
sured the parents nothing could I've done
that would ever enable her TO walk with
out crutchcs. She has been under DR..
llartman's treatment only for few months,

Dear Sir My daughter Is getting along
nicely. She can now do every kind OF
Homework, walks 90 school without
crutchcs or cane, and romps with the girls
nj recess as though she had never been n
helpless, crippled child as she was for 30
many ycans. She Is ~ happy that must
10 our Heavenly Father for having guided
our footsteps 10 your office, and ut last TO
be able 20 see our darling skip around be-
fore our eyes like the rest oi our children.
Our family physician, who tried 10 hard
10 keeps us from going 10 YOU 10 have our
precious child made straight, now says he
cannot see how DIR. Hartman ever came To
think Of such a peculiarly constructed
brace or instrument; that ho was sure he
had read everything on the subject. but
had never found anything like this. Dr.
Hartman must he great genius. Yes,
said, Dr. Hartman thinks Of nothing else,
and that brings God to his assistance, aud
! know that both together will in the end
make our daughter IN every way ~ per-
feet ~ u she had mover had hip disease.
We all wish YOU very happy Christmas
and New Year. lours truly,
