Drs. France & ottmaun's Successful
Treatment of Chronic Diseases.


Our many readers who have been beue.
fitted by the remarkable skill of Drs.
France q O.tman, will be pleased to know
that they have decided to make q return
visit 10 your city. The remarkable cures
performed by Drs. France & Ottman have
created wonder throughout the country.
Drs. France d Ottman have originated
and perfected system of determining,
with the greatest accurs cY, the nature OF
chronic diseases by personal examina-
ton of the patient. They obtain their
knowledge of the patients disease by the
practical application of we'll established
principles of modern science to the prac-
tice OF medicine, and il is to the accuracy
with which this system has endowed them,
that they owe their almost world wide rep
utation in the skilful treatment of all lin-
gering or chronic affections. The doctors
have established an excellent reputation
in this community, and their practice has
steadily increased until it is now undoubt-
edly the largest in the State. There Ia
but one way TO explain success of this
kind-they cure their patients-nnd their
reputation has been honestly earned.
Their cures are, in some in
stances, startling in their ma
ture, having been performed after
the highest authorities and the most cele-
brated representatives of the different
schools of practice had pronounced the
fiat of doom and declared them to be be-
yond the limits of the curable. A con-
sultation on the above date will cost you
nothing and it may be the means of
bringing you health and happiness, and
make your life pleasure instead of bur-
den.-The News.
