the most scientific, painless and effec-

standing, obstinate diseases that are
known to the profession today. A per-

IMPORTANT NOTICE.

When we decided to open an office
in DEBORAH six months ago, it was i'm
the nature of an experiment as we
were by no means certain that town
the size of DEBORAH could support an
Institute of such magnitude as ours.
However we are greatly pleased at the
reception and confidence that has been
placed in us. Our business has in
creased so rapidly that at a meeting of
the Downing Physicians held in Decor
ali last Monday a reorganization was
decided upon and hereafter our asso-
citation will be known as "The Decor
ah rledical and Surgical Institute"
and will be permanently located i'm De-
corah. We assure our friends and the
public that no pains will be spared to
sustain the enviable reputation our
phenomenal success i'm curing the sick
of this community has made for us.
