ABBO!
THE UP-T0-DATE PHYSICIAN
AND SURGEON OF THE
SOUTH.
WELL MERITED REWARD r,,
SCIENTIFIC WORK.

The Wonderful work of Ma.
whose study of Medicine Ma.
Made Him Appear as Wfzsr5
His Cures, However, Are Based F,-
tIreIy on Medical Art and no Pre-
tence Is Made TO the supernatur,,
Every once in a while the country i.
startled by the announcement of the roys-
FERROUS appearance in some town or -f.,.
Of a strange person who claims 20 +,
possessed Of miraculous healing powers
kilograms are sent flying broadcast rs.
lating the wonderful cures attributed p,
the strange healer. many OF them bei--
almost superhuman.
In many Of these instances the renorr
goes forth that the miracUlously endowed
person refuses to accept any c0mpe1ss-
ton for his work, and consequently tbo1-
sands of people flock to him from all over
the country. Superstitious frenzy then
enlarges and magnifies many simple cures
into miracles and those who have probably
been benefited through excitement. at
tribute their relief to some power beyond
the human. This was the case wit,
Schlatter, the Denver healer. and others
who have come to light through the no.
tOriety given him.
In every instance, however the STAY ~
such persons in one place is short ana
their departure is clouded in mystery. a.
was their arrival.
Then, after a short while the charm
wears on, the cured begin to all again
and all the magic supposed to have exists
ed in the healer's art is suddenly dis
PEELED.
How different, though, Is the effect IN
on the suffering people who receive medi-
cal treatment from a man, who, by dine
of hard study in the art of medicine can
successfully treat many cases that 20 the
ordinary man of medicine would seem in
durable. When a patient is cured or even
relieved from pain that has become a
torture merely by the application of p0-
tent drugs and preparations and without
the slightest degree of superstitiols ex-
element or claims to magical powers, the
cure is permanent, and the patient then
has much to be thankful for.
While we have not in our city a man
who can make the blind see, the cripple
walk, dumb speak and the deaf hear by
a touch of his hand, we are blessed with
having as a resident physician one whose
careful study of the anatomy and the
knowledge acquired of the proper renee
dies to apply to each case, gives him the
power of performing cures that II he
cared to work upon the supersutious ele-
ment would bring around him thousands
of people who would adore him and view
him as a wizard of unlimited force.
This wonderful man can be found daily
at his Office, 15S Hull street, attending
the afflicted, who crowd his office daily.
giving relief to all and curing many
whose cases have been pronounced hope
less.
He does not pretend to be wizard, al
though his patients view him in that light,
being unable in any other way to account
for his superior knowledge and curative
powers to those physicians under whose
care they had previously been. Abbo
merely insists and has proven the truth
funess of his assertion, that his years OF
careful study of the human body and his
diligent search into the relative properties
of different medicinal ingredients has re-
suited in his being able to compound pre-
parations for the cure of ailments that i5
suited for each particular case and with
out going into II on guess work. Neither
does Abbo guarantee or even pretend 10
cure every ailment or affiiction that he Is
called upon to administer to, but on the
contrary in many instances he promptly
informs patients that their case is beyond
| the power of the medical s-Ssnce. Abbo,
! however, invites what appears to be the
most hopeless case, as he many times cam
| perfect a cure.
When a case presents itself, however.
! that he knows to be incurable, after care
! full and thorough examination, he gives
| the patient valuable advice, for which ne
makes no charge.
Abbo has come to Savannah, not as a,
| bird of passage" not to prey upon tho
| ignorant or superstitious, but as a licensed
| physician, who has graduated in the school
| of medicine.
He proposes to make his home in this
| city. and no one need fear TO put them
selves in his care for the treatment Of their
| ills.
His scientific handling of medicines has
| brought him phenomenal success, and ne
proposes to continue TO merit his reward
