The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1899-09-24


college and hospital practice, where he re-
ceived a training as thorough as II Is pos
sible to obtain in the world, he has deNoted
himself TO the study of those diseases
which, because of the endless amount OF
misery they entail have been perhaps the
greatest curse that men and women have
been obliged to bear. The vast number
of patients who have come under his per-
sonal examination and treatment have en-
abed him to perfect that system Whlch 50
invariably brings about a cure even 10
those stages regarded as incurable by oth-
er physicians. With view to learning
something of some recent discoveries made
by DR.. Hathaway, reporter visited hlm
at his Offices in the Southern Bank build
ing, % Bryan street, and was very gra-
ciously received by the doctor.
DIR. Hathaway's Personal Work.
81 dislike very much to keep my patients
waiting" said DR.. Hathaway, because
feel that a man or woman who is sick
needs to be cured as speedily is possible,
and l want to start them on the right road
as soon as l can. But the newspapers
have always been very generous with me,
and feel that perhaps | am doing a ser
vice to your readers, or such of them as
may be suffering from disease, in granting
you this interview
Il propose for the next year or two to
give even more time than I have in the
past few years, to personal consultation
with my patients. While l feel that l do
come in very close contact with them by
means of my question blanks, report
sheets and regular course of correspond
ence l know that many patients, when
ever they can, prefer to see the doctor
himself, and know that he is q real live
man.
Preparing n New System.
ST have been taking a great deal of
time the last year or two for laboratory
work and in perfectng electrical and
other appliances l have demonstrated
sufficiently that the discoveries which
have made are of great value in the treat
ment of many forms of diseases which
have heretofore been either considered in
durable or durable only by the aid of the
knife or cautery. l prefer so far as posi-
bic 10 myself apply these new discoveries
which l have made.
Il think the peop.e of Savannah, and, in
fact, of the whole South, are well enough
acquainted with me, at least by reputa-
ton, to know that when / make a state
ment about a new or improved method of
treatment am very careful to have fully
Demonstrated its value before I allow pub
lie announcement of the fact to be made.
The Diseases Durable.
I'm the treatment of nervous diseases.
of diseases of the blood of diseases of
the kidneys, OF all forms of catarrhal dis
eases, or fema.e complaints of Varicoc Gle
and structure and of those weakened con-
ditions under which so many men labor
and which help to unfit them for great
business activity or the highest forms of
pleasure, l have made comparatively re-
Gently discoveries which, even to me- have
been almost marvellous in their results
Il never did believe much in failures in
medicine, but l did regard UP 10 few
years ago, even after SO many years of
practice and success, certain diseased con-
ditions as incurable, or not durable with
out very serious and expensive opera-
ton. ] believe that 1t is pretty well known
that have always been frank in telling
my patients of their true state and wheth-
err or not l could cure them. To-day I
have positive knowledge, and KNOWLEDGE
from my own experience In the actual per
sonal treatment OF cases, that can cure
practically every diseased condition of the
human body or the human mind and all
this in a purely scientific manner.
New Lungs and Kidneys.
IT do not pretend to say that I can
make new lungs, new kidneys or n new,
brain for man any more than | can
make a new leg of flesh and blood fo.
him If he has 1t cut off, but what there Is
left of any organ of the body I can cure
and more than that, for example If The
| liver is diseased, l can make the kidneys
help do the work until cure is effected
and vice versa, by an entirely new svs-
TEN of treatment.
VaricOceie and Structure.
Heretofore 1t has been considered i'm .
possible, and l must confess that agreed
with the general opinion, to cure either
varicocele or structure without an opera-
ton, but l am curing 80 per cent. of all
cases that apply TO me-and l have had
| thousands since began this treatment
without the aid of either knife or cauterv
without any pain, loss of time or publicity
A New Book Free.
las You can see, have a score or mora
patients waiting for me- and my time zeal
| ly belongs TO them, but here is a copy of
a book which have just written which
tells many things about my new discover
les in much more detail than ! have time
40 go inAo with you now. 1t is a book w mich
