Mr. Louis Hanson, we'll known and
popular engineer on the G. M. and st.
P. r. r., residing at Mason city, Iowa,
was suddenly stricken with a severe
case Of appendicitis. He called upon
two different doctors, 10th OF whom
told him that his only chance to live
was to be operated upon at once,
otherwise he was liable to die. Mr..
Hanson decided first to consult the
United Doctors at their institute in
Mason City, who never used the
knife. When Mr.. Hanson came before
these specialists he was fairly bent
double from pain and misery. The
