Probably in no line of business has 1
deception been practiced as in medl-
cine. For this reason any concern 1
which lives strictly up to its promises /
deserves the thanks of every body. /
such a concern is the Cook Remedy I
company, which is located in suite 30f
Masonic temple in this city.
The standing and reliability of this
company has heretofore been tayorably |
commented upon by the Dispatch, and
Just now it comes TO the front with a
cure so remarkable that an account. of
it will be found of unusual interest to
the reading public The case IN ques-
ton has been fully investigated by
the Dispatch, and the following recital
of it can be vouched for as absolutely
true in every particular.
A TraIy Marvellous Cure
/ The case in question is that of M
/ Roehrig, prosperous young German
] American of IS East Twenty-titth
street Mr.. Roehrig inherited pre-
/ disposition TO skin disease. When D
4 years old he suffered much from -ecze-
| ma, but that in time was cured. Some
time ago he contracted blood poison.
/ The symptoms became alarming and
/ physician after physician was CON
I
\ ever, seemed only TO aggravate the
disease. After almost every promi-
nent specialist in Chicago had tried in
/ vain to alleviate his suffering Mr..
Roehrig acted upon the advice of his
parents and went TO Germany for the
express purpose of being treated by
the most eminent physicians of Eu-
rope At Coburg he put himself un-
der the treatment of Drs Kuhn and
Martinez recognized by the medical
profession as authorities on diseases
of the skin and blood. They succeed
ed no better than the many Chicago
doctors who had tried to cure Mr..
Roehrig's awful ailment Meantime
the condition of the sufferer became
simply appalling.
They Could Not Cure HIz.
When the most learned saVants of
Europe were found unable to benefit
him Mr.. Roehrig was ready to give up
all hope Relatives brought him
back to America TO die Resigned to
what threatened to be a most horrible
fate, he came back to his Chicago
home and took to his bed He had
been dosed, drugged and covered with
salve; one physician recommended the
amputation of his toes, and his resi-
0EuCE WAS Iull OF DOkLltS NIldL ndu con-
tanned medicines prescribed by ortho-
dox practitioners and more modern
specialists, but as he constantly grew
worse Mr. Roehrig was willing TO quit
trying. Relatives, however, insisted
that efforts TO cure be continued and
he again called numerous expert spe-
cialists. The result of their treat
ment was the same as before the trip
to Europe
The condition Of the unfortunate suf-
ferer was at this time truly pitia BILE.
Life was worse than a burden, not only
to himself but to his relatives and all
who came in contact with him. 1t
would be difficult to imagine the
measure Of the mental and physical
torture that he underwent while in
the grasp of the dread poison Death
not only seemed imminent but the
sufferer was ready to welcome it as a
relief
Somebody Suggested Magic Cyphi!ene.
About this time some body
suggested trying the Cook Rem
edy company. Expecting no bene-
fit but ready to try anything
that promised relief, Mr.. Roeh brig put
himself under the treatment OF the
; Cook Remedy Co, 307 Masonic temple,
Chicago. ILL.,, who have made spec
: ialty of treating this disease for near
: ly ten years When he began treat
, ment in December last he was one
! mass of disgusting, mattery sores.
The physicians connected with the
Cook Remedy company say his was
the worst case that ever came under
their notice. He had long been un-
able to wear shoes and was in every
way about as sorry a looking speci-
, men of humanity as was ever seen.
Z 1t was about six months ago when
, Mr.. Rcehrig began to take their
treatment Since beginning he has
followed instructions carefully and
] to-day is one of the most healthy men
, in all Chicago. When he first began
Y the Magic Cyphilene treatment he
4 weighed $50 pounds, and now since
cured by this magic remedy he weighs
, POS pounds and is a Ssndow in appear
! ance Every sore has healed, and the I'M
! slightly scabs that disfigured him have
given way to healthy cuticle.
The Case Carefully Investis gated
, As a natural result of the facts
narrated Mr. Roehrig is a staunch ad
, mirer of the Cook Remedy company.
: He told his story 10 the Dispatch re-
: porter who was sent to investigate the
5 case, believing that the recountal of
/ his experiences may be the means OF
Z. saving the lives Of Others who may be
: so unfortunate as to be afflicted with
: blood diseases of any kind.
