full vigor and endurance, for, in addition
to the travel necessary to keep his APP
pOintments. he performs more skillful
and delicate surgical operations than but
few surgeons living. This is his last trip
in Texas, as his Surgical Institute
and Sanitarium of Columbus, Ohio,
will demand his whole time IN the
future. a magnificent four-story
building which he has been obliged
to build in the city of Columbus to
accommodate his increasing home
blu siness is nearly completed and
will soon be opened as the most perfect
institute of surgery and medical santa
rum in this country. Although he has
q SPECIAL surgeon to attend to each de-
partment, yet patients who have trav-
eled long distance are disappointed I'M
less they see DR.. Hartman himself. The
doctor is 81 superb operator; his steady
nerve, clean sight, and wonderful eXpe
perlence have made him an expert with
but few equals. 1t would be Impossible
to collect and publish a thousandth part
of the number of cures he has made in
the state of Texas. A few will suffice to
show the great variety of successful OPP
erations he has made in this state.

her to see you when you VISIT Texas
