A WELCOME GOAL.

The suffering of the sick who do not
know where to go for relief is pitiful.
The thought of doctors and the enormous
fees they charge is appalling. Many con-
tinue to suffer simply because they can
not afford to pay for medical advice. This
is not as it should be and DR.. Greene,
the great blood and nerve specialist, re-
allies that fact He believes in reliev-
ing suffering humanity wherever and
whenever he can; accordingly his advice
is free to all who call upon him or write
to him at his office, "a Temple Place
Boston, Mass. 1t is nsedless tn say that
the good he does is wonderful. DR..
Greene is also the discoverer of
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve RENE
dy, which is the most valuable medicilss
the world has ever known.
