cent over the cost of operating. The al
legged effect of the order of June 8 was to
reduce the toll and increase the running
expenses. This cannot be done contrary

the company and the settlers for months.
The latter tore down the tollgate and re.
fused to pay toll, and this injunction gives
the company temporary triumph.

What Dr., MacTaggart
HAS DONE AND Is DpING.

The Doctor wishes the public to understand
that he Is not soliciting the ordinary run OF
cases, but desires just such diseases to treat
that other physicians cannot succeed with or
at least fail to cure. When you suffer from
such consult HIM consultation is free, have
him thoroughly diagnose your case, and then
what he tells you can be relied upon as a fact
beyond refutation Some may say, "Why go to
DR.. MacTaggart when we have as good doctors
here as anywhere" Yes, so you have In their
line OF practice, but not in those sDecialtleS
that DR.. MacTaggnrt is schOoled and practiced
In. In support OF this unqualified assertion
read his testimonials mot only read them, but
investigate the truthfulness OF them. Where
are the physicians who can remove cancers
without pain and cure IL beyond peradventure?
He does 1t. Where can you find another ply
sician In pennsylvania who can remove tumors
OF even 81 pounds weight without the use OF
the knife, without pain, and without leaving q
scar? DR.. MacTaggart does 1t. What physi-
clan can cure fistulas without cutting or caus-
ing the least pain orsoreness during Treatment?
DR.. MacTaggart does It successfully. These
are golden truths-1Oiden because IL proves be-
yond dispute that the science OF medicine in
specialties particularly. is advancing with
rapid strides far in the lead or the regular
practitioner. 1-lS-ly.
