Nearly 4 hundred years of its existence

disease for natural sickness; it does not
leave in the system deleterious effects
produced by strong medicines, but by
searching and thorough method gently
places the diseased organism on heal
thy footing. Mild power cures. Peo-
pie who have been accustomed TO take
medicines as strong as they could stand
short Of poisoning are imbued with the
idea that Homeopathy, if good at all, is
adaptable only for curing sick children
and some delicate women. Nothing
further from the truth. Homeopathy
being based on the natural law-LIKE
CURES LIKE-a law as certain and i'm
mutable as law of gravitation itself, is
as certain and positively adapted to all
animal organism. Horses and babies,
poultry and cattle, strong men and
weakly women are alike brought under
the benign curative influence of Home
opathy, provided their organism is d.
seased. In other words if they are sick.
1t does not effect healthy organism.
Enemies of Homeopathy, to cast slur
upon it and to fight it with rldlcule If
they can't with argument, had manu-
featured little fable about a small
boy eating up vialful of Homeopathic

did not hurt the boy in the least. Well
admitting it was fact. What of that.
The boys organism was not diseased,
the medicine not being adapted to the
condition of his health and OF course
did not act. It did not hurt the boy be-
cause Homeopathic medicines are not
to make people sick, but to make them
well. 1t has no affinity for healthy
organism. Kind reader, If you chance

medical aid in case of temporary all.
ment, give Homeopathy trial. Throw
off your fair mind the unfavorable bias
ed opinion which might prejudice you
against the person or the system. The
trial may help you to find what you have
been searching for-health. In this
connection will announce to those in
terested, namely, the ladies of poor
health, that l am prepared to treat all
female complaints. l have instru-
ments and appliances to treat diseases
of the womb in its various forms and
know how to use them to the best ad-

need to go outside of Medicine Lodge,
to be treated for the above ailments
They do not need to wait thirty days
till the big man from the big town comes
around-to consult him about their ac-
tual trouble. To all such | will say,
come and see me; tell me your troubles.
Ii can't cure you / will tell you so;
you don't need to pay me if you don't
obtain benefit from my treatment.
In conclusion l will in justice to N.Y.
self ask those interested in this article
not to confound me with the adyertis-
ing quacks living back east in large Cit
les who have columns filled in various
newspapers, pralsing their system of
cure, Offering their medicine free or
even promising to refund the money In
case of the failure to cure. For an ar
gument will say that am living here
and can substantlate what have said,
which IS not true of the other fellows.
For a comment on the extraordinary
promises set forth by men living at a
of many persons who have received
their money back from those who ad-
vertise money refunded if not curedl
| will, therefore, with positive emphasis,
say do rot advertise to catch credu-

do. and mean what 1 say. 1 do not
wish TO have the opinion advanced of
me by some ldis)interested person that

al! the branches OF medicine including
surgery, diseases Of children, diseases
