been to hnlf u dozen physicians who claim TO

three or four months. They did not begin
to give me the relief and help you did in those
six weeks"
They Changed noctors Frequently.
Another former patient. n lady living In
Brooklyn. said yesterday; lam worry glad TO
know. Doctor. that you have decided to locate
in New York permanently. | was treated by

your oillce in Philadelphia. hut was not

They changed their doctors there every two
or three weeks. 1t seemed as though they
never had the same doctor in tho ONCE. and
every new doctor that would come in would
alter my medicine or change my treatment in
some way. 30 that really seemed to DO getting
worse all the time. got discouraged and quit
tho whole business"
Severe Methods Of Local Treatment.
Still another patient gives his testimony in
words that are more emphatic than pleasant.
He says. Doctor. your treatment helped me.
1t was mild and painless. and seemed TO feel
better under 1t and improve under 1t right
along After you went away went to several
physicians. and I am blest IL know what
they did to me. They put some strong stuff
into my nose and throat that made It burn
and smart terribly. My head ached for hours
after l was treated by them. Ny brother was
also under their treatment. and as he puts 1t.
'MeN bmnpI B'y nose out Sometimes when
was being treated 1t seemed as il they would
Kill me. They may be good doctors. but I
don't believe they know anything about how
to treat catarrh. Often when I would leave
them my nose would be all swollen up and
sore on the inside. and would lie awake all
night with the pain. Yes. am glad You have
como back. and am more than glad to know
that you are to stay. IL you had not COMO

and we'll man. before this"
Who Merits. Wins.
And so tho testimony runs from hundreds OF
patients and very many visitors. DIR. Copeland
is grateful for all this expression OF kindness.
good will and appreciation. and to merit tho
success which is his in this community is tho
best evidence of his appreciation. That he
stands to-day at the head OF tho largest special
practice in the world is possibly sufficient
evidence that no is master OF his specnlties.
To this We will only add the testimony printed
every week in those columns from mon and
women well known in the community. 1t is
not ,rhatn man says lie can do, bit what others
say he has done. that is the best evidence OF his
skill. 1t is on this basis alone that DR.. Cope
land asks to be Judged by tho public.
