WHAT WOULD IT COST

VIZ to consult the ordinary
specialist In disease? More in most cases
than the average person has to spend in
fees. Yet persons suffering from chronic
diseases are invited to consult an extra
ordinary Specialist by letter, free.
DIR. Pierce, chief consulting physician
to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical In
stitute, Buffalo, n. Y, is an extraosdin-
airy specialist. He is extraordinary in an
unbroken experience in the treatment
and cure of disease which extends over
thirty years. He is extraordinary in his
success: e8 per cent. of those he has
treated being absolutely and entirely
cured. He is extraordinary in that he
puts at the disposal of correspondents
not only his own services but the SER
vices of his medical staff numbering
nearly a score of qualified physicians.
There is no other offer of free medical
advice which has behind it so renowned
an Institution as the Invalids' Hotel and
Surgical Institute, or such 4 successful
specialist as Dr. Pierce. Write in conf

Stephen E. Trice, Jr., Succumbs to
a Spinal Injury Received
four Years Ago.

Stephen f. Trice, Jr., third son
of MIR. John B Trice, died Friday
afternoon at his home on South

he received fall while exercising
in a gymnasium, that eventually
caused his death.
Returning home he atonce formed
partnership with Mr., w, f.

but soon found that his spine had
been injured in such way that it
incapacltaed him for active business.
He went to the best specialists and
surgeons, but none of them could
stop the progress of the trouble and
In a yeal he was confined to his
bed. His sufferings were. ex-
crucating at times and then he
would appear to get better and
hope revived. He remained cheer
full and resigned Throughout his long
illness. On the day he died he be-
came unsconscious a few hours be-
fore the end came.
