He Has "A Word to sny About Those
Physicians who Cling to OId-Time
Worthless Methods.

J. NEWTON HATHAWAY, NJ D.
! ! am often asked why It is that cure
greater proportion Of cases taken than
| do other physicians.
! | will endeavor to answer this question
in this public manner through the news
paper press not only fer the benefit Of
the general public, but also in order that
my brother physicians may know what
Is necessary to be done in order that thev
may be successful.
We often hear the remark that there
are TOO many doctors; there are not too
many but there are too few who are fitted
either by nature or training to sFeat prep
erly all the diseased conditions of men
and women. .a
DIR. Hanthawny's Success.
AS to the reason for my SUCCESS: I have
made 1t rule, since the tlhnea when |
entered college. to make a study of one
class of diseases at a time and to perfect
a treatmen; for that class before / took
up another; and besides this, have lin
ited my practice exclusively to chronic
diseases.
But there are certain diseases which can
not be successfully treated by themselves
aIone; tee diseased condition OF one or
san or part OF the body will surely In
time c mmunicate itsslt to some other
organ or portion of t1e body Hence. the
specialist who is best able to treat dis
eases OF chronic natur. Is h. who is
familiar with the diseassd conditions
which are liable to become seated in all
parts OF the body.
For instance, a man may have form OF
heaIt trouble, the primary cause OF which
IS Kidney disease; or he may have terri
bic headaches which result from any one
OF a dozen different causes; or he may
nave chronic bowel trouble traceab!e d.
rectly to liver complaint and so on in
definitely. II Is not sufficient TO alone
treat the manifestation of the disease II
is necessary to go deeper and be able to
cure the underlying cause.
Chronic Diseases Specially
Having confined my speciality to chronic
assesses which act and react on each
other, and having had the privilege of see
ing and treating and curing all the differ
ent forms and stages of these diseases. II

The Largest Practice.

morlu mas treated so many cases. along
my special lines, as have. have bean

twenty years day in and day out. make
no. no coast OF this; I simply state fact
that none can dispute.
Constantly Learning.
