The large and representative gather

not only a deserved tribute to the dis
tinguished speaker, but it also shows
that the citizens Of Augusta are alive

of. 1t f0retells a rousing majority at

certain that Mr. Smith will have an
even more cordial greeting when he

A WORD OF CAUTION.

The old saying that "a man, who is
naked can't give away his shirt" is only
another way OF saying that YOU can't
give what you haven't got. The man
can't give :" free medical advice /" or auy
other kind of medical advice who hasn't
got medical education and certificate
to the fact, in the form of a diploma.
And in this particular a woman has no
more privilege than a man. She can't
give medical advice without medical edu-
cation and medical knowledge.
The offer of free medical advice made
BY Dr. Pierce, chief consulting physician
TO the lnvalids' Hotel and Surgical In
stitute, Buffalo, Y. Y, has been initiated
by so many, who without any medical
qualifications claim to give medical
advice " that word of caution is neces-
sary.
Don't write for medical advice to any
one, man or woman, who is not a phv-
sician: If they are physicians they will
take the title Of physicians or doctors so
that You may recognize them. If they
don't claim that title it is because they
dare not, for fear of the law.
Do not forget that there is lust as
much difference in doctors as i'll artists.
Every little town has its artist who draws
and paints. But these artists" gener-
ally paint copies OF the works of great
artists like Millet. There was only one
Millet
There is only one Invalids' Hotel and
Surgical Institute. such as Dr. Pierce
presides over Thousands Of women
come or write to DR.. Pierce who have
found no help at the hands of doctors of
lesser skill and narrower experience.
Any sick or ailing woman, suffering
from the distressing forms of disease
peculiar to women. is invited to con
suit DR.. Pierce, by letter, free Such con-
situations are absolutely private. Each
letter is treated az sacred confidence,
and each answer is sent in a plain en-
velope, bearing no printing upon it.
III this way offensive questions and
repulsive examinations NAV be avoided.
