It Is no longer a doubt, but a demon strated fact, that the power of magnetU;u and electricity as used In the cure ot chronic diseases la the greatest aux iliary to medicine that Is known to science at the present day, and some of the most wonderful cuiws have been performed ty the proper use of the above mention-. I powers. Dr. F. It. Smith and staff have employed those powers in tho cure of chronic diseases for muny years with Up most remarkable good results, as the fol lowing case will show: Mrs. Uroate, a lady ubout 60 years old, came to Dr. Smith and staff. Bhe was suffering with strict ure of the throat for about eight year.i. For over six years she had not swallowed a mouthful of solid food. She had be.-n compelled to live on tea. coffee, milk and the thlnest kind of roiiiis. Bhe had been doctoring for years, but found no relief. She was told by several dovtlrs that there was no cure, that all she could hope for was death, which would come by degress, or, in other words, that the passage to her stomach would close and she would slarxe to death. Living in utter despair a friend called her attention to an advertisement In the paper of the cures made by Dr. Smith and staff, and contrary to the ad vice of the family physician she com menced taking magnetic treatments. She was told that she had simply thrown her money away, that no doctor could cu-e her, but despite of all those protestations she is today a living testimonial to the healing virtues of magnetism, for she was absolutely and permanently cured of her affliction by Dr. Smith and staff. If you are suffering with any complaint call on those docUrs at 5U3 Linden street, opposite the court house, and be cured. Consulta tion free from to 6 dully except Sund.iy.
