CONSUMPTION CURED
Efforts 10 Restore Health Drowned With
the Greatest Success
Astonishing Results Obtained From
the Use of the Improved
Koch Treatment

Consumptives everywhere are the sub
tects of the greatest anxiety and atten-
tlon on the part OF friends and relatives,
because OF their helpless condition and
almost certain doom. On account of
this fact, the announcement of the dis
covery OF cure for consumption has
caused continued ripples Of interest in
the busy world, and nearly every one
has stopped long enough to take cog
nizance OF the news 80 universally cir
culated, that consumption Is being
cured.
1t is almost a household saying now.
and people everywhere are talking about
the cures effected by DR.. Ballard. Here
tofore cures OF consumption have been
rare, and generally only temporary re-
lief has been afforded, but now the great
est success is universally attained and
health restored to all consumptives who
apply In time to DR.. Ballard for his i'm
proved Koch treatment. He has cured
more cases Of consumption than all
other dactors combined, and the testi-
monials of his cured patients can be
seen at the Office, and the closest inves-
tigation Is invited of the cured cases as
well as the references also furnished
on application.
People with weak lungs and those af-
fected with after effects Of la grippe,
pneumonia, bronchitis or catarrh should
not forget that consumption begins In
just shs way and that usually we'll
developed consumption might have been
prevented by timely resort to the i'm.
proved Koch treatment. Keep In mind
that consumption begins insidiously,
and often when the person seems to be
in the best of health and that unless
examined by an expert the actual dis
ease may not be recognized till too late,
also that if taken in time it can be
cured.
DR.. W. Harrison Ballard is able by
his special experience to recognize the
disease early, and If it exists he is able
to cure it, and he Is daily meeting with
astonishing results and his efforts to
restore health to the afflicted are being
crowned with the greatest success.
Call at the offices and investigate the
cures and the methods and the appa-
ratus used. Consultation free. Home
treatment furnished In conjunction with
the specific treatment, when necessary,

better health than at any time since I
left Chicago, and owe 1t all to you and
to your excellent treatment for tubercu-
lcsis. About one year ago I found my
self rapidly running down in Chicago
and no amount of treatment seemed to
do any good, so / was advised to go to
Los Angeles and try the climate. I got
no better. although using aseptoline.
guaiacol, cod liver oil etc. and at last
became SO hoarse I could not speak
aloud. could barely eat. had severe
cough. expectoration and night sweats,
and could scarcely walk at all.
Luckily I gave up all other treatment
and put myself under your care, and
very soon began TO improve. MY appe-
tite improved, I gained in weight and
strength, was able to speak plainly anc
felt so we'll that was able to come here
and to begin work and am now still
feeling we'll and still gaining. I know
that I owe my life to you and cannot
thank you enough for what you have
done for me.
Your improved Koch treatment has
restored me from a condition of help
lessness to so much of my former
health that I am able to work and sup
port myself. land 1 shall always be ready
to say a good word for your improved
Koch treatment.
