1888 Pearl street, New York City.
Confident that he has discovered an alb
solute cure for consumption and all pull
monary complaints, and to make its great
merits known, he will send, free, three
bottles of medicine, to any reader of The
Midland Journal who is suffering from
chest, bronchial, throat and lung troubles
or consumption.
Already this "new scientific course of
medicine" has permanently cured thou
sands of apparently hopeless cases.
The Doctor considers it his religious
duty-a duty which he owes to humanity
to donate his infallible cure.
Offered freely, is enough to commend it,
and more SO is the perfect confidence of
the great chemist making the proposition
He has proved the dreaded consumption
to be durable disease beyond any doubt,
There will be no mistake in sending

generous invitation. He has on file in his
American and European laboratories tes-
