AND THE PEOPLE FOUND
THAT HE MEANT FREE
Doctor Byers' Reception in Scranton Marked by Scenes Such as Have
Probably Never Before Been Witnessed in This City The Word Had
Gone Forth The People Knew That the Noted Specialist Was Here,
Found That "Free" with Him Heant Absolutely Free, That Is, Entirely
Without Cost or Assessment of Any Kind.
It was expected that Doctor Byers' liberal offer would cause a sen
sation. It was expected that those who had suffered hopelessly from
chronic diseases and from deafness would seek him who had triumphed
so marvelouBly over disease, and whose restoration of the sense of hear
ing had made his name famous. So it was not surprising that when
the Announcement was made that Doctor Byers would recolve, examine,
prescribe for, treat and furnish medicines to all who came FREE abso
lutely without money and without price the people were astounded.
The newspaper announcements were eagerly read and re-read. It
could not be possible. There must be some mistake. People ran to friends
and neighbors and questioned and discussed. It became the one topic
of conversation. "Doctor Byers would not allow the announcement to
be made that everything would be free unless he meant it," was tho
final conclusion, but there lingered in many minds the feeling that some
mistake might have been made by the newspapers, that there had
been some exaggeration because of misunderstanding.
Scranton had experienced "Free" doctors, "Free" treatment, "Free"
consultation, "Free" medicines, but always there had been behind the
"Free" some scheme to obtain money. It had been like free admis
sion to a place where it was necessary to pay to get out. Because of
these many unfortunate experiences, while Doctor Byers' honesty was
not questioned, it was feared that the newspapers had too freely used
the word "Free," omitting such limitations as the doctor would put upon
it when he personally greeted those who came to benefit by his skill.
But even with this doubt about the full meaning of the word
"Free," there probably was never before in this .city such a gathering
of those afflicted by Deafness and other diseases and conditions. There
were old men to whom all voices and all sounds had been shut out
for half a century; there were men and women of all ages, pale and
thin, who had been told by doctors that life was a matter of only a
few months; there were cripples hobbling with canes, or half carried
by friends, whose lives had been made sad because of their misfortune;
there were those with faces disfigured by those terrible diseases of the
blood and skin and they would all have come had it been to give
their last penny for the treatment of Doctor Byers.
From early morning on Thursday began the assembling of suffer
ers and every moment of the day brought new additions. Friday and
Saturday they came in increased numbers. And the people found to
their wonder and surprise that no misstatement had been made In
the newspaper announcements of Doctor Byers' mission that "FREE"
meant exactly what was stated; that not one cent was asked or ac
cepted for anything, for consultation, for examination, for treatment,
for medicine; that Doctor Byers had no medicine to sell. No sooner
did the people reach their homes than the word was passed from
mouth to mouth that what they had read in the paper was true in
every respect.
Every day from now till May 11th will these people come, and they
will meet the Doctor and be put by him on the highway to recovery,
and not one cent will be received from any person for anything un
der any pretext. There are no limits to this free Invitation; it in
cludes all those who suffer from any complaint and have failed of
cure or relief. All will be examined, and all will be treated, and all
will receive all needed medicines, and all absolutely free.

Th3 Story of His Life.
Doctor nycn um liotn ol Qu.iWcr parcnlnsc,
anil tlurlnff tlic early put ol tils lite lie wai umlrr
the Influence of Hull rcllirious denomination. From
ejrly childhood the whole tenor of Ma mll
womed to be In the direction of rcllovlmc the
nick. It might be nUtinl broadly that lie was a
born physician, ami thore natural qualities which
ro to make up all that U necessary lo produce
a successful phynlclan wore born In hlni.
The Power ot llcillns; uhli.lt he now possews
was first noticed by mcmbcM of bis own family,
and ibis Tower lias developed and grown stronger
as he lias grown older.
Itcallzlnjr that a natural gift could be Improved
upon by diligent study and research, he entered
the Jefferson Medical college, of Philadelphia,
and graduated with honor, lie also attended tbe
nrlous hoi.pltals and rllnlcs In Philadelphia, in
eluding the Peimsjhanla Hospital lor Acute and
Surgical Diseases, the. lllockley Hospital for 6kln
and Ear Diseases and tho clinics of PiOfessor J.
Soils-Cohen for Diseases of the Throat.
Thus It will be seen that Doctor tljera possowi
the rare combination of the Power to Heal, to
gether with the most careful medical training.
While at college he was constantly making orig
inal research, and knowing that the human body
was made up of minute cells, he dlstwcrcd that
disease was caused by the disorganization of these
cells, and by restorins the cell life to Its natural
function tho disease was entirely eradicated.
Doctor Djcrs 3 a man of ample means, and is
very averse to- notoriety. He is an educated
physician with a Hare (lift. He desires to do all
the good he can.
He has never been known to re
tain a fee where he has failed to
benefit the patient.
Doctor Byers Vast Expariance
Doctor Bjcrs' enormous experience In treating
the sick, together with his natural Gilt of Heal
ing, renders him capable of doing many things
that would bo considered impossible by otlie.4
phjbieiam. No physician in Pennsylvania, no
matter how inatuio his years or how great liU
experience, has treated one-tenth ot the nuirVr
! of cases that he has. Doctor Dyers has always
maintained that very few phjsieians, howoicr
well trained in their profession, are qualified by
nature to ticat the afflicted. He always protest
ed -against the enormous fees asked by most phys
icians, and considers them heartless and mer
cenary. He has always protested against the
monthly-payment idea as practiced by some phys
icians, who keep their patients month alter
month, each month supposed to be the last, until
finally they have paid huudreds of dollars without
any benefit or relief.
Doctor Byers considers it the duty
of a physician, where he has failed
to benefit the patient, to return the
fee paid.
All business is conducted on such principles,
and why not medicine? When a person pays for
a thing, lie expects and is justly entitled to get
x-alue received.

Why Fhydcians Fail to Cure.
The reason tli.it plijstclans bao failed to cur
In the past is because they have not understood
tho true nuuo of disease. They luuc empirically
given remedies because thev have been told by
others or have read In medical works that fueli
and Biicli a remedy wns good for such and such
disease. Tills is a theory based on a wrong foun
dation. All disease Is due to a disorganisation of
cell life, and when the celt life l- restored to Ul
natural condition, health Is the result.
