 Little did we think years ago when Dr. Holloway, our great southern specialist, located in Birmingham and modestly an nounced through the columns of the Her. ald that he would treat only a special class of diseases that he would ever achieve an international reputation. To our personal knowledge from across the ocean, in far away England, they have learned of his skill and fame and consult him. We be- lieve with the doctor that truth, merit and honor always win. He stands at the head "a pleasant gentleman, an able physician and is recognized as the leading author ity in the treatment of all private diseases. Birmingham may well be proud of him.

A specialist is one that confines or limits his practice to the treatment of particular or special class of diseases. Those who adyer- tise to treat many or all classes of disease are simply advertising doctors.
 Dr. Holloway is a specialist of many years standing, distinguished graduate in every branch of medicine and surgery; also li- censed pharmacist.
 HE TREATS ONLY PRIVATE DISEASES.
 By thus devoting his whole time to the cure of private troubles he has acquired an experience and familiarity with such diseases not obtained by doctors in the general prac. tice of medicine.
 This, with successful treatment, quick and permanent cures, has established for him reputation not confined to the city of Bir- mingham or the state of Alabama The great success which has crowned his efforts for the relief of suffering humanity is attested by nu- merous patients from every state in the union.
 CURES ARE GUARANTEED.
 Dr. Holloway guarantees to you a cure, and his guarantee is reliable one. After a careful examination or consultation, person. ally or by letter, you are told exactly what a guaranteed cure will cost, including medi- cIneS. The same WrlLJen guarantee IS gwen to patients who are treated by mail as to these who reside in the city, but if you wish t. come here for treatment will contract to pay your railroad fare and hotel bills aad make mol charges for medicines or services if I fail to permanently cure you.
