DIR. CHARLES w. uNeER 6 SON

Through the professional work of Dr.
Charles w. Unger & Son, the well known
physicians and surgeons at 1861 South
Broadway, the people of Los Angeles
have been made acquainted with the
wonderfully efficacious power of Oxy,
donor as a restorative, a preventive and
a cure for most of human ills. This re-
markabe agency, of which DR.. II. Sanche
&c Co. of New York, Detroit and Mon
treal are the proprietors, has gained
wide reputation throughout the United
States and it's introduction in Los An
by numerous strong testimonials OF cure
in many forms of disease. ranging from
ordinary nervousness and indigestion TO
yellow fever the claim for it being that
of a specific for nervous and mental
exhaustion and disorder, rheumatism
asthma, catarrh, indigestion, liver, kid
ney, heart and lung diseases, fevers, and
many other diseases and ailments me
claim for Oxydonor is based upon the
well known fact that oxygen is lifes
necessity; that it causes the absorption
of oxygen thus forcing disease of any
form out of the body. Just as the llght
of the rising sun dispels the darkness, so
does oxygen eliminate disease from the
ergy to be given to all the organs or the
body, so that they can perform the rune
tionS for which nature made them. NO
dangerous drugs are used; no surgical
operations are necessary to see What IS
wrong. The healing and repair all take
place naturally through extraordinary
