POLITENESS IN
HEATHER JAPAN
AN AMERICAN HATES HIS OWN LAND BECAUSE OF WHAT
HE SUFFERED HERE
with Deformy Went in Japan Because He
Was Made Fun of By Christian Americans.

An American business man was
afflicted with an enormous gOitre of
such proportions that he was unable
to conceal it and his life became a
misery to him through the rude Curl
OSity and vulgar attention bestowed
upon him wherever he appeared in
public. Having business interests
which made it necessary for him to go
to japan he took the journey and
after a few weeks in that heather
land wrote home hat he desired TO
remain there as not ny word or hook
had he once been reminded of his dis
figuring malady. Men, women and
children showed such absolute deli
cacy of breeding and such innate re-
tinement of manner that he never was
embarrassed or made uncomfortable.
Another man was born with de-
fOrmity, left his American home and
took up his residence in Japan for the
same reason and today he hates his
own land because OF what he suffered
here. How unfortunate it is to be
afflicted and have to be thrown out on
the wide world and have to face the
ups and downs of life With an affection
or detormity too far gone To be
cured These people are Stunned Dy
their acquaintance, Stunned by
strangers and as much as Stunned by
their relatives, but how can such be
helped when their Affections make
them appear so unsightly and SO
hUmely. Easy as it is for many of
these people to be relieved and COM
pletely cured, they prefer many times
to 60 along making themselves I'M
pleasant and being an unpleasant fac
tor in every way. For the sake Of a
few dollars, a trip to the city Or a
hospital operation, many times these
diseases and Affections could be easily
cured People are too apt to stick to
the old time ideas, the old fashioned
fOgy doctor, the old long bearded
Doweite or Christian Scientist or the
good mother of the neighbOrhoOd
healing fame, when they could become
cured if they only would. They forget
that times are changing; new in-
ventionS are being made: new dis
coverieS: new appliances are being
brought forth and new names for old
diseases that were never understood
ale often times being brought about
In the last fifty years an entirely
the practice of medicine and surgery:
even in the last twenty-five years
many changes have been made: in the
last ten years some changes have been
made and even within the last five
years changes have been made.
The specialist, the man with a
large practice, the man of much eX-
perience. the man who analyses and
the man with the facilities necessary
is the man that is curing his people.
AS for instance, the enormous and
successful practice of the we'll known
specialist. DR.. Rea, man who has
practiced his speciality for twenty
years, a man who has treated disease
in most every state in the Union as
well as in foreign countries, man
that is constantly searching for
knowledge, a man who is charitable,
conscientious and kind, and who has
devoted his whole natural life in the
interest of his profession. DR.. Rea
goes among the people His cures
are among you. His system of treat
ing aud diagnosing disease is the best:
none better He tells his patients
what ais them and diagnoses their
sickness without asking them a
question. That being the case, he is
not likely to treat them for the wrong
aiment. He has SO many patients
and is treating so many diseases and
making so many cures that he knows
what lie can do for new patients since
he knows what he has already done
for old ones He does not have to
experiment. with disease but knows
the seat of disease and goes to work
to remove the cause.
We take the liberty to publish the
names of some of his many cures.
