Les son to the Youth of To Day.

DR.. Charles H. Berry is a native of Putnam
county, New York, and is now about forty-tive
years of age From boyho0d he gave indication
OF the great success he was hereafter to achieve
as he deyo ed all his spare time from his studies
and work 10 constant experiments In chemistry
and biologG, and before he was fifteen years old
had been dubbed by his playmateS the doctor"
Graduating with honor from the schools I'm his
native place, he entered upon the study of medi-
cine with enthusiasm, received his degree, took
proionget hospital course, and settled down to
practice.
DE rapid built up practice that any physician
Night be roud OF, but feeling that he needed
wider field for his talents he decided TO give IL up
traye lfor few years, and then settle in Chicago

DR. Berry S methods OF treatment are peculiarly
MS own. His taste for experiment has remained
with him,an his chemical laboratory is one of the
sights of Chicago. to those interested in these
subjects: During his professional career he has
devoted himself exclusively to the treatment OF
OF Catarrh, Throat and Lung Diseases, Skin Dis
eases. and Diseases of the Nervous system He
achieved and more glory than If he frittered away
MS time and talents trying TO cure everything.
That he was right the result has proved. TO one
unacquainted with his practice II seems incredible
the number of invalids that he treats, but three
or four hur dred patients day at his Office in Chi
cago is by TO means unusual. &
The doctors manner is that of the old school
physician. the one we have heard our fathers
talk about and his sympathy Is so great that It
has become proverb in Chicago. His patients
are one and all his friends. They feel that IL is
not their money that he cures them for, but that
principally and above all 1t is his object TO restore
them to health. The doctors Offices are located
at los state street, Oh the corner of Washington,
and IL Is wei worth any strangers time when I'm
Chicago to visit them. He occupies a whole floor
in this enormous corner building. and has special
rooms especially fitted up for giving his various
treatments There will be found his electric
rooms with the many batteries for administering
this vital fluid, the lung rooms for administering
the gold treatment, of which so much has been
written, and of the success of which too much can
not be said the catarrh rooms, the skin disease
rooms, the genealogical rooms and so on one
after the other and over all presides Dr. Berry
directing the treatment and prescribing the
remedies, entering into every detail himself and
looking after every patient personally.
But enough about the doctor Now something
about his patients. The class ofdiseaSes of which
DR.. Berry makes specially are all chronic dis
eases. namely diseases which have gotten strong
hold on the patient, and are difficult TO cure His
