The Munyou Office in the ''AIa-

rounced for the opening, every inch
of space was filled with waiting pa
tents. All day the Doctors were
kept busy in the consulting and
operating rooms. The manager
was seen at his hotel last night,
and expressed himself highly
pleased with the cordial welcome ex-
tended to him by the citizens of In
dianapolis. Speaking of his treat
ment he says that he can demon
strate that his rheumatism Cure
will relieve rheumatism in a few
hours. He guarantees that his
Dyspepsia Cure will cure any case
of indigestion or stomach trouble.

Thus it will be seen bv these
statements that Professor Munyon

with one remedy, but he has a
separate cure for each disease.
