A LIVING MONUMENT
OF the fact that, right here in San
Francisco, dreaded disease are to be
found. Six years ago / was the a
remedy, treatment and cure of this
proprietor of and was carrying on the bust
ness of the U nited States Restaurant at 54S
Clay street For period of FIVE years prior
to that time there had been growing under
my left eye livid srirrhous tumor which
had attained the size of marrowfat pea. 1t
looked as if it was ready to break, and be-
came so sensitive and sore that | was in con-
slant pain. had boarding with me at that
time one of the best-knOwn and most skill
1ul physicians and surgeons on the Pacific
Coast, Dr. ). 5. Stambaugh. He was at one
time appointed City Surgeon of this city,
and he was selected from among the most
prominent physicians of Philadelphia by
the Government of Chile to take charge of
the Government hospital in that country
and he said to me one day that if 1 did not
have the excrescence removed immediately
would lose my eye and possibly my life. l
asked him what it was. He made an exam
NATION and then pronounced it
A MALIGNANT CANCER.
After some further consultation he prom.
ised that he would secure the services of
Dr.. Murphy of ST. Mary's Hospital. aud
that, together, they would cut it ont A
time was set for the operation, but day or
Two before the time set l met Mr.. William
ii. Barton, who advised me not to have it
cut out, as IL would certainly cause nv
death. He told me that his wife had been
cured by MrS. DR.. Z. A. Cook, and advised
me to call on the doctor and see what could
be done for it without using the scalpel
called upon DR.. Cook, and after an
examination was told that If | would sub
init TO treatment the cancer would disappear
by the end of thirty days. l did as directed,
dow aft I'D
ment the last vestige of the dreaded tumor
had disappeared, and although seven years
have elapsed there has been no sign of its
temperance. While undergoing treatment
gentleman was boarding at my restaurant
who watched every phase OF change with
the most
MARKED ATTENTION,
And after the cancer had disappeared he said
1t was the first time he had ever seen cancer
cured. He said that his father had been
house surgeon in Bellevue Hospital, New
\ ork, and he himself had been in charge of
one of the wards for seven years, but in all
that time he had never seen single patient
go out of tile hospital alive who had gone in
to be operated upon for cancer. Wonderful
stories are told of surgical operations, but it
IS seldom the public hears OF the results.
1he mortuary reports OF the city of san
Francisco for 1890 show very large death
record from cancer. This being the case,
why, do not our leading physicians and those
in charge OF the hospitals make some en-
deayor TO secure this remedy for the sake of
humanity, if nothing more? | can give in
formation of others who have been cured,
AID will do so with pleasure TO any one who
will call in, either at the office of the Com
mercial Herald, 433 California street, or at
my residence, 1904 Powell street"
SUGGESTIONS.
Such is Mr.. Richards plain story of his
experience with one of the most dreadful
forms of disease that ever attacked the hu-
man frame, The remedy, no matter what
Il Is, IS entitled to the respectful considera-
ton aud investigation of the medical fac
ulty. 1t is claimed that the treatment is
mild, absolutely without danger and thor
uuGhly ettieacious. koch's remedy has been
found to be of some value in mild cases of
lupus as well as in consumption. This rem
edy, 1t Is claimed Will act effectively in all
classes OF csncer-lupus, scirrhous, and espe-
cially with that peculiarly dangerous char
acter OF the maiady which attacks female
internal organs. VIII this alleged discov-
cry be veStgated, or Will physicians
through prejudice give 1T no heed? Let the
future answer the question.
