People in Ottumwa have learned, af-
ter a weeks acquaintance with DR..
Fuckers Korak Wonder Co. and his
Korak cures, that both are genuine in
every sense of the word, that both are
all and more than is claimed for, them
and that DR.. Rucker unlike the general
run of travelling physicians, makes
good on his promises, does what he
says he will do and does it well. The
natural feeling of a slight distrust that
makes it hard for a stranger to be-
come acquainted has pass
!. ed and DR.. Rucker is now
recognized in Ottumwa as man
who is here to entertain the people
and heal them while they are being
entertained.
Some of the cures which have been
wrought through the use of DR.. Ruck.
er's korak remedies are really marvel
Gus. In the course of his extensive
| practice the doctor has had patients
who were brought to his tent theater,
the only place where he sells his med
icine, on stretchers and cots. suffering
from rheumatism. Treatments with
his Korak oil have resulted in the com
plete cure, in a remarkably short time,
of those sufferers.
DIR. Rucker does not claim to per-
form miracles. In his talks which he
introduces at different times during
his plays at the tent theater he ex-
plains to the people in language which
all can understand the secret Of his
I success. He has spent time and mon
ey in perfecting the Korak Cures
which he is selling now. He has had
the advantage of years of education in
well known schools, he has expert
mented with different lotions until he
has at last hit upon the correct com
pounds which will do what he claims
for them and will relieve mankind of
some of the most troublesome dis
eases and disorders that flesh is he'll
to.
To the value of Korak oil in cases
of rheumatism there are already sew
eral Ottumwans who can testify.
Among these is j. ]. Vest, who resides
about three miles from the city. He
had rheumatism and could not raise his
arms on a level with his shoulders
and for some time had not been able to
don his coat and vest without assist
ance. Treatments with Korak oil have
done what other so-called cures would
not accomplish in years. Another
man, a coal miner living in the CITY,
had trouble with rheumatism in his
lower limbs, but the Korak oil has
taken all the pain away. DR.. Rucker
it treating rheumatic cripples nightly
at the tent theater while the plays are
in progress.
These cures are going on every
night, as can be testified to by hun
dreds Of people who have witnessed
them. Anyone troubled with diseases
from which he or she can get no re-
lief should see DR.. Rucker while he
charges nothing. The only place
where he disposes of medicine is at his
tent theater, where each evening,
plays are given. At $3.50 each after
noon of the remainder of this week
he will conduct free mat
inees also. The big tent, which
seats about 1000 to 1900 people, is
located on the city lot just north of
the union depot and fronts on West
Main street.
DR.. Fuckers short talks during the
evenings, before the play or between
the acts, are intensely interesting to
his auditors. Not only is he success.
full with rheumatism, but any chronic
disease receives his attention. He has
removed tapeworms from people in
Ottumwa, among them being Mrs. E.
Lorine. Anyone who is afflicted can
not lose by seeing him and the
chances are that the suffering one will
be benefited, as have SO many 9th
ers.
DR.. Fuckers Korak Wonder Co. is a
collection of artists on the stage. 1t is
entirely different from the ordinary
medicine company in that it gives ev.
eryone the worth of his money and
more. One man who has been con
|nected with the business of presenting
amusements to the people of Ottum-
wa for a score of years told Dr. Ruck-
: er voluntarily today, in speaking of
1 the company, that 1t is positively the
best repertoire organization ever
brought to Ottumwa. The big tent is
a pleasant place to spend an even
ing. 1t is well ventilated and the
seats are comfortable and afford plenty
j of room. The admission is ten cents
!. to ALL and reserved seats cost ten
| cents extra. For those who do not de-
sire the reserved seats there is suf-
ticient room near. enough the stage to
see and hear the play.
