SCIENTIFIC new DISCOVERIES.

BY the electro magnetic telegraph an
operator can exactly locate a fracture in
a submarine cable nearly 5000 miles long.
A few fossils sent to an expert geologiSt
enable him to accurately determine the
rock formation from which they are
taken. This he can describe as perfectly
as If the rocky formation was before him
III the table.
So, also, in medical science. Disease
has certain unmistakable signs or symp-
toms. BY reason of this fact the physi-
clans and specialists connected with pr.
Pierce's Inyalids' Hotel and Surgical In
stitHte At Buffalo are enabled It TO aeem
chronic diseases without seeing and per-
sonally examining their patients In rec

ination of the patcnt they DO not claim
to possess miraculous powers. They OBJ
tain their knowledge of the patients dis,
principles of modern science. Certain
diseases display urain peculiar traits.
Subjected to scientific alysis they fur
nsh abundant data to guide the judg-
ment of the skillful practitioner. This
method of treating patients Ut Il distance,
IS scarcely city or a village In the
United States that is not represented by
one or more cases upon the records OF
practice at the Invalids' Hotel and Sur
gical Institute. Such rare cases as can
not be treated in this way, which require
ment, or electrical therapeutics, receive
the services of the most skillful specialists
at the Institution.
Dr. R. Y, Pierce long ago established
this Invalids' Hotel and Surgical 1nsti-
tute with a full Staff Of Physicians who
physicians may be consulte by letter,
tree and without charge whatever, If you
wish q specialists advice upon any
chronic malady.. The same system OF
Hspecialites " Is observed as in the depart
ments Of . medical college: The professor
ments with equal ease and proficiency
would be severely ridiculed by his COL
leagues, and 1t is just as absured to sup
pose that the general practitioner can
keep himself informed Of tho many new
methods of treatment that are being con-
departments of Medicine and Surgery.
People who have been patients at DR..
Pierce's Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo. N. Y,
have much to say in regard to this wOli-
derfnly equipped Sanitarilm, where all
electric water baths, Turkish baths, static
electric machines. high-frcquency cur
rent, and other most modern and up-tO-
date apparatus are used for the cure of
chronic diseases. The treatment of the
chronic diseases that are peculiar to
women have for many years been large
factor in the cures effected at the Inva-
lids Hotel and Surgical Institute.
The violet-ray treatment, which Is
another interesting proceeding, Is carried
ont by concentrating. the light, rich in
the violet or chemical rays. from an arc
upon any portion of the body that may be
the seat of pain. Sufferers from neural
gia, Sciatica rheuma tiSm. strains, sprains,
also from those obscure exhausting pains
(the origin of which cannot at times be
accurately determined) frequently find
immediate relief from single treatment
and usually with little persistence in
the use of this aid, comfortable health or
perfect recovery Is obtained.
Then, there Is the incandescent light
bath, consisting of u cabinet In which the
Of many electric lights. 1t has pro-
duced really wonderful results in diabetes,
scatica rheumatism. obesity, an9mia,
and some forms of kidney and heart
trouble. 1t has also proven valuable in
chronic bronchitis. bronchial asthma and
the various skin diseases. As general
hygienic measure its efficiency can scarce
ly be Over-eStimatcd.
In medicine there has been rapid and
real progress during recent years. and DR..
Pierce has kept up with the times in that
he has had the manufacture and ingredi-
entS in his well -linOWn remedies improved
in modern laboratory by skilled chem
lists the greatest care being exercised to
see that the ingredients entering into his
wpll-known medicines DR.. Pierce'S Fa-
