San Francisco Surgeons Versus Country
Doctors,

Many citizens throughout the country,
and even country doctors themselves, do
not understand why experienced surgeons
visit their towns and counties quarterly.
The reason is simple enough when under
stood. The country doctor is not prepared
with appliances and machinery suitable
for making artificial limbs, eyes ana ears,
and appliances for hip and JOINT disease
and curvature of the spine, braces for all
kinds of deformities and malformations,
and the electric, galvanic and other appli-
ances, such as are manufactured and used
by the Llebig International Surgical Insti-
tute, 400 Geary street, San Francisco, Cali
fornia.
Dr. Llebig 81 Co. treat special diseases of
| men and women; chronic diseases which
have resulted from neglect and from want
OF proper care and treatment during the
acute stages. These cases REQUIRE such
| appliances as the Electro Galyanic and
Vertebral Me1iDgeal Appliances. and the
| latest invented instruments and machinery
which the ordinary practitioner in the
country cannot usually afford to have in
| his office, as he would not have sufficient
| number OF these cases to treat to pay him
| tor mourning the expense. They have no
| such machinery as Hawley's Stand Air
| Compressor Laringoscope in their office
| machinery for the use of condensed air.

rect application to inhamed mucous sur
| faces for the treatment of catarrh Such
| machinery costs $3.50 alone Can any one
| OF our readers tell US of any country
practitioner who has such an appliance for
| the treatment of catarrh alone. Such
machinery is daily used in the operating
room of the Liebig World Dispensary in
Kansas City and San Francisco.
The latest improved surgical appliances
and instruments used by the Liebig World
Olspensary cost fortune alone, and it is
| from this TACT that we treat class of
patients that cannot be reached by the
ordinary country physician. If our special
practice was perfectly understood, the
country physician would in fact be only too
glad to send such of his patients as are
beyond his skill to us for treatment, and
such has been the case in many instances
II we had time to spare we would not
object to advertise just the same as MEM
6ers OF the church, or by joining societies
our time is taken up in relieving suffering
humanity from all deformiiies, malforma.
lions and the terrible sffiictions that con-
stantly come to us for treatment. Conse-
quently, we are compelled to advertise in
the leading newspapers of the country.
Our surgeons are graduates from the
leading institutions in this country and
in Europe in classics; also, graduates from
the leading colleges in Great Britain and
Europe In surgery and medicine. We
have one OF the largest drug stores on the
racine Coast, and run our own drug mills,
employ our own surgical appliance makers
| and import leading remedies.
In order to meet our patients who can
| not visit San Francisco, our surgeons make
quarterly visits, to every town of import
| ance on the Pacific Coast, and have been
| doing SO for the past fifteen years
DR.. Stoddsrt the Managing Physician of
the Western Division of The Liebig World
| Dispensary at Kansas City, will visit Los
| Angeles about the middle of October, and
due notice will be given in this paper of
| his arrival
