Remarkable Success of These Talent
ed Physicians in the Treatment
of Chronic Diseases
Offer Their Services
Free of Charge

The Associated Doctors, licensed by
the state of Indiana for the treatment
of deformtes and all nervous and
chronic diseases of men, women and
children, offer to all who call on this
trip, consultation, examination, advice
free, making no charge whatever, ex-
cept the cost of medicine All that
is asked in return for these valuable
services is that every person treated
will state the result obtained to their
friends and thus prove to the sick and
tafflicted in every city and locality,
that at last treatments have been dis
covered that are reasonably sure and
certain in their effect.
These doctors are considered by
many former patients among Ameri-
cas- leading stomach and nerve spe-
cialists and are experts in the treat
ment of chronic diseases and so great
and wonderful have been their re-
suits that in many cases it is hard
hndeed to find the dividing line be-
tween skill and miracle.
Diseases of the stomach, intestines,
liver. blood, skin, granulated eyelids,
bladder. rheumatism, dropsy, sciatica,
diabetes, bedwetting, leg ulcers, weak
lungs and those afflicted with long
standing, deep-seated, chronic dis
eases. that have baffled the skill OF
the family physician, should not fail
to call.
According to their system no more
operations for appendicitis. gall
stones, tumors. goiter or certain forms
of cancer. They were among the first
in America to earn the name of the
'Bloodless Surgeons by doing away
with the knife, with blood and with
all pain in the successful treatment
of these dangerous diseases.

vice as may relieve and stay the dis
ease. Do not put off this duty you
owe yourself or friends or relatives
who are suffering because of your
sickness. as a visit this time costs
you nothing.

Hush STI|Rrt0n
Third saseman and Field Captain De-
troit Tigers, and Who Is Regard
ed One of the Best Inside
Players In the Game.
BY GEORGE MoRiARiTY

Bush has made the three plays that
l consider the three greatest l ever
saw, and the greatest of them all. |
believe, he made in a game against
New York on the Highianders' park
last summer, The play was made
while we still thought We had
chance to win the pennant, and for
quickness Of thinking and action it
was simply wonderful. l had the op-
portunity to know just how fast he
thought and acted because / had a
part in the play myself-that of as
sisting him to make 1t, although he
came near being too fast for me.
The play came in the eighth inning
of the game, with one of the High
landers out, runners on third and
first, and a run needed to tie us up.
You know In that position the Detroit
team plays the second baseman and
shortstop just a little closer to the
plate than when no one is ON bases,
While the third and first baseman are
pulled close up. We try for double
play IL the ball is hit to either short
or second, unless the batter is ex
tremely fast II the ball is hit slowly
to second or short 1t goes home to
cut off the runner, while third and
first baseman throw home to shut of
the run, unless the ball is hit directly
at them and fast enough to make a
4 double play the other way and retire
the side.
