Mo-, is the herald of the new era in
medical science. They are versed in
various lore of their respective depart
ments, and supplied with the most
complete and costly instruments and
agencies employed in medicine and
surgery. and are fairly typical of the
progressive age in which we live. All
that science has revealed as to the
nature of disease is familiar to these
specialists, and all of the late applian-
ces for successful treatment and cure
have found place in their splendid
equipment.
It's members are drawn from three
great schools which comprehend all
of the medical and surgical knowledge
of the present day, Alopathic, Home
opathic and Eclectic. Their diplomas
are from the greatest medical colleges
in the world. They are prepared to
give the highest references as to char
acter and letters of Endorsement from
thousands of cured patients may be
seen for the asking. They invite the
fullest investigation. Each one, in
addition to his knowledge acquired in
general practice, is a specialist, hav-
ing spent years in the treatment of one
Or more particular classes of disease.
The advantage of placiag a case in
the hands of staff which represent
the three schools of medIsihe, and in
which every member is q specialist are
plainly evident.
II patient goes to Bellevue hospi-
tai in New York he gets old school
theory and treatment. He may seek

doctors, but they are all from the same
teacher. If you go toa homeopathic
hospital you get the homeopathic
treatment, snd the same is true of the
! various other hospitals. In any case
you are denied what the other two
] schools of medicine offer. If the var
ious schools of medicine would affiliate
laying aside their bigotry and accept
ing the best that is taught by each the
! benefit to be obtained must be plain
to every Intelligent, fair minded per-
! son.
The members of the German-Ameri-
can Staff PLY sicians and Surgeons,
while bein. graduates from the var
! ious schools, and the best schools OF
each class, have common interest at
stake and therefore affiliate. From
| both a professional and business
