Boston, Dec. 2.-The meeting OF the Har-
ward athletic committee, which was To take
place this evening To pass upon the forth
coming a greemcnu in athletics between Har-

account of the serious Illness of Prof.
Joseph II Bealc. its chairman, 10 Tucs'.a y

PURPOSE AND LIMIT
. OF The s. Rate
Its Absolute Conclusion with the Closing Month Of the Year.
Dr. Mccoy Takes Unusual Pains to Prevent Misunder-
standing and to Avoid Criticism on the Ground Of Par.
tiaIily After January

With this closing month OF the year ends,
according To the announcement, this re-
markable opportunity. 1t is reasonable
| to suppose that by this time the terms
under which this opportunity is To be Sc
cured and enjoyed have been made clear
to all. The greatest pains have been taken
to guard against the possibility OF misun-
derstanding. Not only has the wording
been clear and explicit as to the duration
of the opportunity. but the clear and ex-
| plicit wording has been given the empha-
sis of rapid published repetition to make
misunderstanding or confusion impossible.
| The purpose OF the SO rate has beenm made
| clear II was adopted because DR.. McCo;
found that many who had visited his Of
rices felt that they could not afford the
money necessary for the treatment; that
| many also had been kept away because OF
! the general knowledge that DT. McCoy's
| fees are high, necessarily pade SO by the
| great demands upon his time and skill IL
| had been DR.. McCoy's Intention in estab-
| nshing a permanent national practice in
Washington, to give everybody an oppor-
tunty To obtain the benefits OF his treat
| ment, which had thrilled the country by
| It's triumph over deafness and other deer-
seated affections Of the ear, the throat,
the lungs, the bronchial tubes, by its won
derful triumph over some Of those scDurles
OF humanity falsely called incurable mall
aides While he could not reduce his fees
would not do 50, in factor a specified
time lie abolished his fees altogether, giving
his services free and charging only for the
medicines used, making the uniform rate
of 50 a month to all.
1t then Lccame absolutely imI ossible to
care for the TIN oHgiEg crowd OF people who
sought 10 take advantage of the opportunity
within the time limit set DIR. Mccoy,
therefore, frankly extended the rate, max
ing the extension a generous and ample
one, covering the last TWO months Of the
year.
With this extension there has teen re-
peated emphasis given to the limit. Dr.
Mccoy desires % avoid criticism after the
list OF January, and tIose patients who
come after that date and pay $40 onth
Will have no ground for complaint that 7
they have not Teen abundantly Eotified
that the OPP ortunity OF the S3 rate IL
solely limited 10 those beginning treat
ment before January /.
This is The offer:
All patients beginning or renew.
ing treatment before January i will
he treated until cured at the uni
form rate of 81 a month. This in
cludes all medicines and treatment.
This is absolutely the final OppOr-
tunity under this rate. 1t will under
no circu instances he again extended
or continued. After January / Doc
tor Mccoy will resume his usual
fees.
