The Great Specialist has Arrived An shen-
andOah.
That the people Of this region read the
papers and keep posted on what is going on
about them was never better demonstrated
than yesterday when the specialist. DIR. J
Harvey Moore opened his office at the Fergu-
son House. Our people knew that while the
doctor was comparatively a stranger here he
was in fact no ordinary man. That no
specialist had ever visited Shenandoah that
was so universally endorsed not alone by ALI
the newspapers but by every one with whom
he came in contact as is DR.. Moore They
also personally knew some OF the hundreds
he has cured Of their various ailments during
his stay in surrounding cities of Wilkesbarre
Pottsyile and Allentown Thus it was not
surprising that at 9 o'clock when he opened
his office ne found many waiting eager to
avail themselves of his great skill and
knowledge.
One Of his first patients was y years-old
Sallie Hale, Of 90 East Centre street. Maha-
noy City. She had been cross eyed since
infancy, which not only disfgured her greatly.
but affected her eyesight. The doctor
operated on the eye by his painless metho1.~
making it perfectly straight in less time than
it takes to tell it, The child said that the
operation did not hurt bit and certainly
gave no evidence of any pain. She was
accompanied by her mother who knew Of tn
many remarkable cures the doctor made A
year ago while in Pottsvile and declared il
seemed like miracle, but DR.. Moore does
not claim any mysterious power in the treat
ment Of his patients In fact we may say no
learned or honorable physician will shroud
his performances in mystery and leave his
patients in doubt and darkness. 1t is only
the pompous and gaudy mounteback and
quack, who processes to possess mysterious
powers, who viii resort to deception, and this
for the purpose of concealing his lack of
professional knowledge
Yet DR.. Moores success in operating on
cross'eyes by his method" does seem mar
vellous when compared with the method used
by most eye surgeons, some of national and
even international regulations.
Quacks often tell their patients that
their eyes had to be taken out and then put
back, which is an utter impossibility.
DR.. Moore does not use ether nor chloro-
form; does not tie up the eyes nor conine
the patient indoors There is no pain during
the operation nor afterward, and patients are
able to follow their usual occupation at once.
Among the others who had their cross. eyes
made straight this morning was the l3.year-
old daughter Of Mrs. Henry Rowlands, of 4l1
West Line street, She had been cross eyed
since infancy which caused her to have severe
headaches She said she could see better
Immediately after the operation.
Another was Miss Lulu Kester, a dress
maker Of II North West street. This young
lady's eyes were turned but slightly and as
is usual in such cases caused her to have
violent headaches dizzy at times and ex-
uemely nervous. If she read any length Of
time her eyes would blur all the letters
seeming TO run together.
Many think chat crosse eyes only cause
Disagreement and are not aware that it
effects their vision. If such will take a paper
and read with Que oyoa few minutes. then
with the other, they will find tho cross.eve
Jue poorer one. Even slight cast' i'm the
eve is often the cause of grave nervous
affections, such as violent headaches, neural
gia, chorea or St. Vitus dance etc, and are
always either cured or greatly benefited
when their eyes are made straight The
doctor was equally successful in the treatment
Of the other specialties this morning and is
| sure to be very busy man during his stay
in Shenandoah, as no other city in the region
will be visited by him; and there are many
who were unable to see him during his stay
in Pottsylle year ago that waited until the
last five days when he was unable TO see all
who called. These are sure to call at their
first opportunity and any one suffering from
any Of the diseases he treats will do well 10
! avail themselves of this genteman's STAY
among us,
