DR.. Mccoy Takes Unusual Pains to Prevent Misunder

With this closing month Of the year ends ac-
cording to the announcement, this remarkable op-
portunty II Is reasonable to suppose taat D! th's
time the terms under which this opportunity Is 10
be secured and enjoyed have been made clear 10 all
The greatest pains been taken to guard against
the possibility of misunderstanding Not only has
the wording been clear ard explicit TO the duri-
tion of the opportunity, but the clear and explicit
wording has been given the emphasis Of rapid pub
1ished repetition to make misunderstanding or CON
fusion impossible.
The purpose OF the So rate has been made clear.
IT adopted because Dr.. Mccoy found that many
who had Wis ted his office felt that they could not
afford the money necessary for the Treatment: that
many also had been kept away be'ause Of the gen-
eral knowledge that Dr. MCOy's fees are high.
eSsariIy made by the great demands upon his
time and skill. 1t had been DR.. McCoys intention.
in establishing u permanent national practice In
Washington, TO give everybody an opportunity to
obtain the benefits of his treatment, which had
thrilled the country by its triumph over deafness
anil other deep-seeted affections of tha ear. the
threat. the lungs the bronchial tubes. by Its Won
derful triumph of those scOu-ges of hui
manity falsely called ircurable malades While

the thronsnG I'd Of people who sought to take
advantage of the opportunity within rhe time limit
set. DIR. Mccoy, therefore, frankly extended the
rate. making the extension generous and ample
one. covering the last two months Of the year.
With This extension there has been repeated EN-
phaSiS given to the limit DR.. Mccoy desires to

patients who come after that date ard pay SO 4
