The remarkable success of these
talented physicians in the treatment
of chronic diseases has aroused much
enthusiasm in the Northwest.
This Is said to be and no doubt
is true, one of the most able spe-
cialists organization of it's kind in
this section of he country, and must
be a successful one from the many
good results they are getting.
The United Doctors, licensed by
the state of Wisconsin for the treat
ment Of deformities and nervous and
chronic diseases of men, women and
children. offer to all who call on them,
consultation. examination and advice
free.
1t is specially requested that mar
ried ladies come with their husbands
and minors with their parents.
The name, UNITED DOCTORS, is
what 1t implies, union of specialists
twelve in number, that have gotten to-
gether for the treatment of chronic
and nervous diseases. Not to be I'M
derstood that they treat all diseases
that the human body is heir to. They
mean to be very careful in selecting
and taking cases as they want good
results, which means good returns in
the way of their patients recommend
ing them to others.
They estimate that over eighty per
cent of the patients now coming to
them, come from recommendations of
those they have treated.
They do not treat any acute dis
eases whatever, their time and atten-
ton being devoted to such diseases as
follows:
Diseases of the stomach, intestines,
liver, blood, skin, nerves, heart, kid
neys, bladder Or spleen, rheumatism,
sciatica, diabetes, bed wetting, legul-
GERS, weak lungs and those afflicted
with long standing, deepseated chron-
ic diseases, that have baffled the skill

fail to call
According to their system no more
operations for appendicitis, gall
stones, tumors, or goiter. They were
among the first in America to earn
the name of the "Bloodless Surgeons, u
