FOR THE TREATMENT
OE ALL CHRONIC
DISEASES.
And Until Further Notice All Patients
Calling Upon Them Will be Treated
Free Till Cured--R Ready for Busi-
ness as Soon as Suitable Of
fees Can be Secured and
Fitted

DR.. Goldberg & Co., the weli.know
specialists, of Detroit, have concluded to
open a permanent branch Office for the
treatment of chronic, private, nervous, deli
cate, blood, skin, kidney, liver, bladder,
stomach, female and rectal troubles. 1t
was through the earnest solicitations of their
many friends and patrons that they decided
to locate here, enabling patients to doctor
them without necessitating their going to
Detroit.
The doctors are pre- eminent In the treat
ment of the above diseases and no man or
woman who is suffering should feel any
hesitancy in consulting these specialists, as
everything is held sacredly confidential.
1t may surprise our readers to learn that
since they opened in Detroit 27,291 patients
called upon them for consultation, of which
number 24,117 have been entirely cured,
!, 400 rejected as incurable, while 1.76S are
still taking treatment and rapidly lmprov-
ing.
The cause of their success can readily be
understood as every physician connected
with the institution Is a graduate from a
recognized medical college and they are the
only ones who are willing to wait for their
pay until cure Is affected, neither do they
under any consideration accept any incur
| able cases. If your case is found incurable
you will be told so In all kindness.
Men suffering with loss of vitality, vari-
cocele, seminal weakness, structure, blood
] poison, skin diseases or any disease affect
| ing the genito urinary organ, weak back,
gravel, catarrh and unnatural discharges,
inflammation and other painful conditions,
rendering the patient unable to do work and
| offtmes an untimely grave, receive scientific
treatment, prompt relief and permanent
cure.
Women suffering from female weakness,
lassitude, lucorrh9a (whites), displacements
or liberation of the womb, neuralgia, head
ache, dizziness, backache, fainting spells,
dark spots before and dark rings under the
eyes, will find a speedy and permanent
cure, as the doctors are specialists in these
diseases.
All affections of the throat and lungs also
treated, as well as diseases of the rectum,
such as piles, alterations, flesure, fistula
and prolapse cured without the knife or de-
tention from business.
The doctors expect to have Offices ready
soon, and the people In Owosso and vicinity
should congratulate themselves that these
specialists have decided to locate here.
