The Way in Which They

Truth About the Workings of
These ssMen of Muscle"

THERE ARE NOT A FEW ENTHUSIASTS
L who are wrapped up in the feats OF the men
with highly developed muscles who are known
as the "strong men" of the world. Those
easily impressed wonderfully admire-they
in fact worship. But it only needs the most
ordinary industry to develop as the result
OF inquiry that the faculty of these "strong
men" as 'stayers' is very small. And indeed,
II the truth were told, they would most of them
have ga weak back' very suddenly If they were
called on to do an ordinary days work. Most
people know what that weak back means. 1t
means certain indication that the Individual

most serious illnesses of which the world has
any record grow. Any one who has any doubt
on that matter may very readily have his ideas
put right by consulting any reputable man who
has ever suffered from It. Perhaps a brighter
or better example could not be found than Mr.
Geo H. Bent OF Rochester. Cal. Not long ago

from the jaws of death, his back still bothers
him little, showing how vital is that symp-

Rochester, Cal August 8, 1895.
Hudson Medical Institute, San Francisco,
Cal.-Dear Sirs: Yours of oath duly received.
This is where the good feeling comes in, for I
am sure that you like to hear from patients
who, like myself, are about cured. / am sure
like 10 be able to write In this way, for as am
now. think that by the time that l get the
medicine taken that l am on now l shan't
need to take any more if you think will stay
this way. My back does not bother me hardly
any now, and feel better in every way. Yours
very truly, GEORGE 81. BENT.
Mr.. Bent's letter bears on it the very i'm
preston of truth and he is like hundreds of
other patients of that grandest of all curative
establishments, the HUDSON MEDICAL IN
STlTUTE, in that he, knowing where he has re-
ceiyed great good, is not ashamed or afraid to
tell of it. For example:
S. NJ. Hooker of Los Angeles says. al am
very grateful for what you have done for me-"
E. w. Fowler, Kamele, Or: II am feeling
as good now as it is possible for man to feel"
]. I. Ward of Park City, Utah, writes: ''I
am very pleased TO say that am cured of the
terrible disease that had"
If testimony of this sort does not show skill
that cannot be surpassed what on earth CAM
No! 1t does bring conviction to every honest
mind, and as relief is certain it is truthful
motto thati you are i'll at all ''THE Hull SON
MEDICAL INSTITUTE is by all means theb est
place TO apply for help"
