TRULY A
Dr. Burchmore, of
Warner's
Suffolk Dispensary.
The Suffolk Dispensary is one of the most active and useful charities of
Roston, Dr. Rurchmore has a large private practice and Is a specialist in wo
men's diseases.
The termination "Itls" means inllummatlon. Cystitis is Inllainmntlon of tho
bladder. Nephritis and pyelitis are dangerous Inflammatory conditions of thft
kidneys.
IPhysIclans with their usual caution rarely use language so direct and
posltlvo as that employed by Dr. Burchmore, but they rarely have such a
remedial agent as Warner'H Safe Cure to talk about. Dr. Hurchmore de
clares with that feeling of responsibility which never deserts a conscientious
physician, "it has cured acute Rrlght'a disease." He credits Wnrner's Safo
Cure with greater power than Is possessed by any other medicinal product
known to man. Notice, please, that It calls Safe Cure a specific, meaning that
it has a positive effect In tho cure of certain diseases. There ure only a
handful of specifics. Other remedies aro more or less uncertain In their ac
tion. In putting Wnrner's Safe Cure upon tho scientific roll of honor, the
eminent physician pays It a compliment which his fellow-practltloners agree
is rlchlv merited.
Not from the observation of one case, nor of a thousand, have Dr. Rurvh
more's conclusions been drawn. At the Dispensary he has seen every form
of kidney trouble, Including all variations of Rrlglit's disease, and lie Is him
self a noted specialist In women's diseases. Wnrner's Safo Cure lias stood a
Wjvero test of the general nnd hospital practice of so eminent a man. No
man or woman should for a moment feel despondent, even If troubled with
any form of female or kidney and liver diseases, when o great a remedy Is
within their grasp.
