Very Valuable, But Costs
Nothing.

The best example of getting some
thing for nothing which has come to
our knowledge is the decision of the
great specialist, DIR. Greene, "a Temple
Pl., Boston, Mass, to give to the sick
and suffering consultation and advice
free. Enormous fees are charged by
physicians of the great skill and won
derful power to cure disease possessed
by DIR. Greene, and the fact that he
can now be consulted, PERSONAL, or
by letter, free, is matter of congratu-
lation for every community. DIR.
Greene is the discoverer of that great
remedy, DIR. Greene's Nervura blood
and nerve remedy, and all his wonder,
full medicines are purely vegetable and
perfectly harmless. Our people Will
be especially interested in the fact that
this eminent physician has made a
a speciality of treating the sick through
letter correspondence. If you write
him description of your case he will
return a carefully considered letter,
giving you perfect understanding OF
your disease, advice, etc., without
charge. Sufferers who have failed to
get relief cannot afford to neglect this
great opportunity, but should write to
DIR. Greene at once. Be sure and send
for his symptom blank to fill out.

up property to the value of at least $780,,
