The Reformation.
AbbO'S New System ReVOIu-
tiOnizing the Practice
Of Medicine.
The old Monopoly and Code of
Ethics Giving Way to New Science
and Modern Methods.

Reforms are the order of the day.
Whether it be in the arts, the sciences,
medicine, surgery, mechanics, or politics,
a spirit of revolutionizing has permeated
the age in which we live. To carry out
this spirit men have been selected as lead
ers of these reforms either by will of the
people, by natural endowment, or supernat-
ural gift and have taken their positions
and carried on the work in the department
where their special study, learning and
experience, had best fitted them. AL
though this spirit of revolution and re-
form may be directed towards a world
wide end, 1t is only natural that as the
work progresses. that the success would
be first experienced in the localities In
which the greatest progress has been
made.
In the practice Of medicine and surgery
we have only to view the strides of prog
ress that have been made In Savannah
during the past two years. BY the eff
forts, and the skill of Abbo the art of
combating disease and remedying the
Affections of the human body have been
practically revolutionized and as a con-
sequence we find to-day diseases being
readily and easily conquered, that for
decades past had bafied the most learned
physicians and whose attack was consid-
cred deadly. We have witnessed, under
the Abbo system of medicines, the remoy-
al of horrible and CHASTITY looking can
GERS, which in previous years required the
use of the dangerous and painful surgical
knife and saw to such an extent as to
leave the victim marked Scared and dis
figured for life. All this Is now done by
Abbo with no PAIN with little inconve-
nience, and discomfort, and with absolute
ly no bad results. The weary, weak and
unhappy women who were striving to
stagger thSugh life, attempting to hold
up, under the awful pain they were endur-
ing from some of the many complaints pc
cullar to women, have at last discovered
an end to their misery by the remedies pre-
scrtbed in such cases by Abbo, without
undergoing the hazardous and uncertain,
and many times barbarous operations
which were performed In 80 many in
stances with such disastrous results. AL
so is it the case with the treatment given
the victims of catarrh, bronchitis con-
sumption, laryngitis, and various other
diseases of the nasal and bronchial tubes
The sufferers from these Ills had been given
little If any relief and no hope whatever
was held out to them that they could be
permanently cured The new and wonder
full system established by Abbo, however
gave to them new hope and new life and
hundreds of cases We're cured that had
heretofore been considered incurable. And
thus has it been with nearly all the ills
to which the human race is subject those
which had long been considered perplex-
ing and battling now being readily and
easily subdued, and in those cases that
had been viewed as beyond the powers of
medicine, wonderful cures have been
made. In the practice of surgery,
also Abbo has reduced first the neces-
sity and next the dangers of surgical OPP
erations to a wonderful degree, perform
ing them with marvellous skill and dexter
ity, lessening the pain and making almost
free from danger.
In all Announcements In this life, where
the progress was made by an individual,
through his learning, his powers, and his
aggressiveness, and when those in the
same profession or aff1llation could not or
would not keep stride with the progress
made, there surely would be created a
spirit of defiance, of rebellion, and Outlines
of i'll feeling and hatred towards both the
mover and his works. This fact has
been forcibly impressed upon US by the
death of the late lamentod Henry George.
whose noble work has, since his death been
openly applauded, and its worth and cor
rectness admitted, now that he has passed
away, leaving none so ably fitted to carry
on his work, by the very men who fought
so desperately against 1t.
Since the establishment of the Abbo Med
ical and Surgical Institute in Savannah,
there has been in the circles of the med
zeal profession a feeling of luminosity and
i'll will towards the new systems of
treating disease discovered and
practiced by Abbo. AS his work
goes on and the people, convinc-
ed by his success, flock to him and de-
sert the old and orthodox practitioners
their feelings grow more intense and many
times their animosities get the better Of
their judgments, and they say things that
are meant to injure the Abbo Institute. but
in reality but reflect discredit upon them
selves. This, however, is but one of the
wages Of progress, and the Abbo Medical
and Surgical Institute, with the patron
age, appreciation and support given II by
the very best people of Savannah, can af-
ford to overlook the acts of those who in
wardly admire its superior work, but out
wardly rebel against 1t.
