KNOWN DOCTORS
Meet With Royal Welcome
On the Opening of Their
Institute in This City.

A most royal welcome was extend
ed the Known Doctors Thursday, the
14th and today by the people of Os-
kaloosa and nearby towns on the open
ing of their new medical institute on
the second floor of the Herald build
ing on North Market street, opposite
the post office. Besides the many
patients living in the city, quite few
come from as far as Keokuk. So the
doctors were kept busy quite while
after office hours in order to see all.
Also there were quite number of
business men and prominent citizens
who called to pay their respects to the
Known Doctors and wish them well.
The grand free offer of free exam
ination, services and advice, and
treatment at cost of medicines is ex-
tended to all who call before Dec. l..
Anyone suffering from any nervous,
blood or chronic diseases cannot do
better than to call on these famous
specialists. You will find them per-
fectly honest and upright in all their
dealings. If they cannot relieve you
they will tell you frankly, for it is
their invariable rule to refuse to treat
any case that is beyond relief While
the Known Doctors will not treat any
case that they deem beyound relief,
yet no one should despair because
other doctors have failed to relieve
them. 1t must be remembered that
the vast experience of these famous
medical experts and the scientific use
of their wonderful new system of
treatment enables them to relieve
many cases that have been pronounc-
ed hopeless by old methods.
The Known Doctors solicit difficult
and deep seated cases. They want
the failures of other doctors to come
to them at once. This will enable
them to show the people what this
new system of medicine will do in
curing diseases and relieving suffer.
ing. This will enable them to socn
gain a reputation here as they have
in other cities where their old insti-
tutes are now established. Examina-
ton is free; treatment is free-the
only cost is for the medicines used.
Consultation is always free and strict
ly confidential.
The institute is open all day from
9 to IL and from l to 5, also Monday,
Wednesday and Saturday evenings
from $50 to 8; Sundays 9 to lad
