ARRIVED AT HOT SPRINGS
MORE DEAD THAN ALIVE,
AND COST HIM $500.

Not in the history of specialism
have such remarkable cures been made
as are now being made by DR.. Rea.
People from all over the northwestern
country, continue to flock to his Offices
| for his form of special treatment, all to
find always the same quick relief Dr.
Rea's visits throughout the northwest
have proven to, be Of great good to the
sick, and certainly he is deserving OF
the full amount OF patronage that he is
receiving. After having practiced his
speciality for the last IS years, travel
ing all over the United States and
coming in contact with the worst forms
of all chronic diseases, it is naturally
to be expected that he would know
more of ones condition and more liza
bic to diagnose properly those forms of
the many peculiar ailments which the
suffering community are especially liza
ble
A case particularly interesting which
comes to Our notice, is that of Martin
Johnson, of Havana, N. Oak Mr.
Johnson was suffering from an affection
which puzzled the principal physicians
throughout the northwest and having
tried most of them without any relief
was persuaded to go to Chicago, where
he could have the advantage of the best
specialists and have every opportunity
to get we'll. Acting on their advice,
he was taken to one of the principal
hospitals in that city, where he re-
manned for six weeks. having the best

get worse all the time. Failing in this
and as last resort he was advised to
go to Hot Springs, Ark, and there take
the baths which would be of benefit to
him. Arriving there more dead than
alive, he stayed for some time trying
the principal doctors, taking the baths
regularly and the outdoor exercises
which were particularly advantageous
in the climatic conditions of that coun-

he had gradually grown worse until he
was then considered beyond all hope
of relief Mr.. Johnson, seeing in some
of the principal papers of some of the
remarkable cures made by DR.. Rea,
some of them whom he had known to
have been sick for years, now decided
after eight months of constant suffer
ing, to try the treatment of this remark
able man. Seeing that he was to visit
Minnesota in few weeks, went to meet
him for consultation and examination
and to place himself under his care.
Calling at his Office he found many
Others also waiting to consult the doc
tor for their ailments. After waiting
for some time, he was shown into his
Office, there DR.. Rea took him by the
hand and looking him squarely in the
face said. "Your trouble is confined to
your liver. stomach and bowels. You
have been improperly treated, in fact
drugged almost to death, but with
proper treatment properly administered
and with the right care, you can yet be
made well man." Imagine the Joy
that must have entered that mans heart
from those few words, "You can be
made we'll man." 1t brought Joy to

brink OF the grave and snatched back

you with the medicines that l want you
