| ton of a lar number OF patients under
their treatment in this county, established
a permanent branch OF the institute in
Calumet. in the Agnliz block, over Grand

These eminent gentlemen have decided
to give their services entirely free for
three months (medicine excepted) to all
invalids who call upon them for treat
ment between now and November L.
These services will consist not only of
consultations. examinations and advice,

condition whatever will any charge be
made for any service rendered, for three
months to all who call before November
l. Therefore, the most humble in cir
cumstances can avail themselves OF the
most expert medical skill and without
cost.
The doctors treat all forms of disease
and deformity, and guarantee a cure in
every case they undertake. At the first
'erview a thorough examination is
made and ii lncurable, you are frankly
and kindly told 40, also advised against
spending money for useless treatment.
Male and female weakness, catarrh aud
catarrhal deafness; also rupture and all
diseases OF the rectum are positively
cured by their new treatment.
