The ADVANCEMENT OF
MEDICAL SCIENCE
Important Discoveries Made by
an Eminent Local
Physician.
A Medicine That Has Permanently
Cured Many Severe Cases Beyond
the Skill of Physicians.

During the past decade the advance
made in the practice OF medicine and the
art of surgery have been equally as phe-
nomenaI as the wonders that have been
revealed to mankind in the electrical
world.
The ethics of the medical profession.
however, forbid as much as possible the
publicity of the discoveries OF physicians
and surgeons, and it has been probably
more for this reason than any other that
we know so little of many of the phe-
nomena that have been accomplished by
some OF our eminent specialists of recent
years.
In the treatment of ind digestion and
dyspepsia IL has always been agreed that
the field OF possible discoveries is broader
and possesses more profit to the physician
who would devote his knowledge and
energies in the discovery of some per-
manent cure.
1t would seem that this end has at last
been accom- plished. This revolution of
medicine, fraught with so much of hope
and blessing to poor hum anity, has been
discovered by the work of a local physician
who has resided in California for the last
twenty years, but so modest and SO unas-
suming have been his ministrations
among an army of the afflicted, to whom
he has brought health and happiness,
that our communitv little knows that DR..
W. H. Bluett of 1863 Broadway, Oakland,
and with offices IN this City, is the sue
cessful discoverer of medicine, the
greatest, so it is said by his many pa.
tients, of anything that has been given to
mankind for the cure of indigestion and
dyspepsia.
The new discovery is in the form of a
powder and administered three times a
day. 1t is not of the old regime of nause-
Gus medicine, but, on the con ntrary. might
be termed pleasant to the taste.
1t is one of those more rational treat
ments evolved from natures arsenal, and
comes as ray of light piercing the gloom
and meeting with instant and widespread
success.
The doctor was seen at his Offices at s
o. Farrell street, in this City, and asked to
show some of the testimonials from prom.
inent people recommending his wonder
full medicine, about which so much has
been said.
"That cannot permit" he said. "The
letters Of patients are inviolate, and can
only be shown with the consent OF the
writers. However, here are the names of
few prominent professional and business
men whom you may interview"
Among those who stood willing to testi-
fly to the wonders of this great madeleine
was Luther Fillmore, ex.Superin tendent
of the Narrow-gauge Railroad; Hon. L.
local real estate operator; w. T. Hamil-
ton, retired merchant of Oakland, and
Miss Ethel Cox, cashier of the Emporium.
These are few, and only few, of the
score that live to testify to health and
happiness restored by simple little
powder.
"Yes," said Mr.. Fillmore. sDr. Bluett's
bno 1th
tainly prolonged my life, after l had been
laid up for many years and spent small
sized fortune doctoring with the leading
physicians in quest of relief from what
thought hopeless case of dyspepsia, in
digestion and rheumatic gou..
''You may say for me, young man. that
it is the most wonderful thing ever dis
covered for these troubles. 1t has not
alone brought me relief, but hundreds of
others, friends of mine, whom / have
recon- mmended it to during the past few
years"
A prominent ex-Mayor OF this City
spoke in terms equally as positive OF the
competency of DR.. Bluett in the handling
of dyspepsia, indigestion and chronic dis
eases, and dwelt at some length upon the
great good accomplished in his household
! by the services Of this eminent physician
! and the administration of his wonderful
discovery.
1T is not my CUSTOM" continued this
gentleman, Ito lend my voice and recon-
! mendation to anything. am decidedly
opposed to that. but l consider that DR..
Bluett and the good he has done for us.
| where other physicians have failed, to be
a wonderful man in his profession and
cheerfnly indorse him as leading in my
estimation, among the scientists of medi-
cine of modern times"
W. T. Hamilton of SO7 ] street. sacra-
mento. was treated and cured, and said he
had recon mended over 100 cases that had
been treated and cured.
1t is remarkable fact that DR.. Bluett
diagnoses a case without asking a ques-
tion, and it is conceded that in this regard
he stands without a peer.
This medicine is now being ordered and
shipped to all parts of America at 50 per
box or three boxes for S. when sent by
mail or by express c. o. d.
