ANT one who has suffered from a Chronic
Disease for months or years, having sought
In vain for help from the Physicians near at
hand, and perhaps has also tried to find re-
lief in various so-called specifics that ere
continually being advertised may be ex-
cused for doubling somewhat at first
whether the skill and experience necessary
TO successfully cope with their case is to be
found anywhere; and even though they
grant its possible existence, they might still
be slow to believe that such skill and ex-
perience can be made available in their own
homes by any method sufficiently thorough
and comprehensive to conquer their ailment.
That this is the case, however, is an estab-
lished fact and is being demonstrated every
day In he practice by correspondence of
Drs. Beekman " Pixley, of 81 West 122nd
ST., New York City.
Any Chronic Disorder no matter of how
long standing, is satisfactorily treated by
their method, and their many years of study
and practice in this special field should en-
courage the afflicted to write them with con-

explaining their method, will be sent on up.

AN English scientist, after careful
experiments, finds that when potatoes
are cooked without removing the skins
they lose only 3 per cent. of nutritive
quality through extraction of the juice.
When the skins were removed before
