Light has chemical energy so intense
us to destroy micro-organie life. This
energy in its different manifestations is n
power in continuing life and curing dis
ease. The N-ray which is really concen-
fated sun light, when applied to some of
the less fatal chronic ailments OF germ
origin has proven very elective as
curative agent. This is the experience of
the skilled specialists at DR.. Pierce's In
valids' Hotel and Surgical Institute in
Buffalo. Although this institution was
founded many years ago by DIR. r. V
Pierce as a genuine home not q hospital
for those afflicted with chronic disease
yet II has kept abreast Of the times and
Its trained specialists have become Med
ical authorities In their various lines.
The ylolet-ray treatment another in
terestng proceeding, Is produced by con-
centrating the light, rich in the violet or
chemical rays from an arc light with Il
specially prepared carbon, upon any por-
ton of the body that may be the seat of
pain. Sufferers from neuralgia, sciatica,
rheumatism. strains, sprains also from
those obscure cShausting pains the origin
of which cannot at times be accurately
determined) frequently find immediate
relief from a single trea tment and usually
with little persistence in the use of this
aid, obtain comfortable health or perfect
recovery.
The incandescent light bath. consists of
u ca binet in which the patient is bathed
In the combined rays of many electric
light globes. This treatment has pro-
duced really wonderful results is diabetes,
Sciatica. rheumatism, obesity, anemia,
and some forms of kidney and heart
trouble. 1t has also proven valuable in
chronic bronchitis, bronchial asthma and
various skin diseases. As Il general n.y.
gienic measure its efficiency can scarcely
be oVer-estimated.
The sick who have been treated at Dr.
Pierce's Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo. N, V,
have much to say in regard TO this Won
derfully equipped Sanatarlum, where all
the above electrical apparatus as well as
electric water baths, Turkish baths. static
electric machines, high frequency cur
rent, and other most modern and np-to-
date apparatus Is used for the cure OF
chronic diseases. The treatment of
chronic diseases that arc peculiar to
women have for many years been fac
| tor in the cures affected at the Inyallds'
| Hotel and Surgical Institute.
The physicians and surgeons employed
| are among the most experienced and skill
| ful In the country, men who have made
these diseases their life study, and whose
| highest ambition is to excel In their treat
ment
How well they have succeeded may be
| Judged from the fact that their practice
embraces cases from every State and Ter
| rtory OF the Union as well as from for
| elgn lands. Many thousands are annu-
| ally treated, either through correspond
ence or at DIR. Pierce's Institution. 1t is
an old adage that, Experience makes
| perfect" and the skilled specialists in this
| field of practice cure thousands of cases
which have been abandoned as incurable
| by general practitioners. Hundreds are
brought to the Institution from far dis
tant states and they go home in few
weeks well and strong. Quite as marvel
Gus are the thousands of cures annually
accomplished through correspondence,
while the patient remLins quietly Mt
home. Others consult In person, and
after being examined are provided with
| specially prepared medicines and return
| home to carry out the treatment
In medicine there has been rapid and
real progress during recent years, and DIR.
Pierce has Kept up with the times in that
ne mas mad the manufacture and ingredi-
ents IN his we'll known remedies improved
IN modern laboratory by skilled chem
lists, the greatest care being exercised to
see That the ingredients entering into his
weli-known medicines DIR. Pierce's Fa-
vorite prescription as well as the Golden
Medlcal Discovery" are extracted from
| dne best variety of native medicinal roots.
| These are gathered with great care and
nt the proper season of the year, so that
their medicinal properties may be most
| reliable.
These extracts are then made soluble in
| pure trple-rellned glycerinc and bottled.
Everyone who consults-thc specialists,
| whether by letter or In person receives
the most careful attention.
Great care Is exercised not to over en-
! courage those who consult the specialists
| OF this Institution that no false hopes
may be raised.
