the victim Of the brigands had taken
them to use as a substitute for his
own garments of which he had been
deprived. The situation at length be-
came unbearable. and. daring rob

thorities sent out troops to pursue the
malefactors. The leader OF the gang

MEDICAL TREAT
MENT FREE
For the First Thirty Days to
Each New Patient.

The object in making this PROPOSE
ton is to convince the skeptical
There is in every community cases of
obstinate and chronic maladies that
are unsuccessfully treated by the fam
fly physician. My office is equipped
with every modern appliance for the
successful treatment of chronic dis
eases, enabling me to cure many cases
not amendable to medical treatment
or medicine alone
In addition to our chemical and mi
.croscopical laboratory. my Office has
also a perfect electrical equipment as
well as other forms of physical treat
ments, and these as well as all examin-
atoms, both physical and analytical
are virtually free to the public. No
charge whatever will be made to each
NEW or BEGINNING patient EXCEPT
FOR THE MEDICINE THAT I USE
Surely, the liberality of this propo-
sition needs no explanation. 1t is
more especially for the benefit of
those obstinate cases that refuse to
yield to the treatment of other doc
tors. One month is long enough to
enable you to find crt if the treat
ment will do you good If ! benefit

with me when 20 are in need of a
doctor. Not only this, but it is the
patients that we cure that brings US
! our new patients. On the other hand.
/ if l do you no good, I have probably
lost your patronage forever.
The liberalty and fairness of this
proposition must appeal to the sick
and afflicted 1t gives them an OPP
portunity to test the virtues of my
methods and treatments at a minimum
of expense and trouble Remember,
the only charge is for the medicine
