Physician's Work for Humanity, One of the Brightest Epochs in Medical History.
It has ntwnys been the cardinal principle ot

tho past few months many people In Scran
ton havo been suffering from financial de

tions. Hundreds ot people have asked to

statod that their financial condition was
such that It would bo Impossible for them to
pay tho ordinary feo charged by physicians.
Doctor Byers' offlcea ara crowded to their
utmost capacity. His practice In this city
Is the largest evor accorded to any physician
In tho history of medicine. Hundreds of
hopelessly alclt have been restored to perfect
health nnd nl name Is a household word
throughout the state of Pennsylvania. It
would bo manifestly unjust to treat a few
at a reduced rato and charge others a higher
price, In order to give all an opportunity
to bo cured at n nominal price, he will treat
nil persona applying at his offices on the
following conditions:
1 All persons applying for treatment at
once, no matter what tho trouble may be,
will bo treated for the nominal sum of (10.00
until cured, medicines Included. This does

Doctor Byers wishes to emphasize
the fact that this offer may be with
drawn at any time, and In order to
get the benefit of It, It Is Important
to call at once. His practice Is so
largo that It will be Impossible for
him to continue this offer indefinitely.
If you call now you will receive the
most careful and scientific X-Ray ex
amination known to science, free of

cured at the nominal sum of $10.00,
medicines included. If you are not

returned to you. Call at onpe, as this
offer may be withdrawn at any time.
BI-CHEMIC TREATMENT.
The different tissues ot the body are made
up of minute cells, and when these celts
become disarrange!., disease Is the result. By
supplying the proper nutriment to the cells,
perfect health can be obtained. All diseases,
no matter how chronic, can bo cured by bring
ing tho cells back to their normal condition.
The treatment used by Doctor Byers Is not
allopathic or homeopathic. It Is a treat
ment based upon an exact science and cures
with tho certainty of a fixed law.
FREE X-RAY EXAMINATION.
Doctor Byers never accepts a case unless
he knows to a certainty the cause ot the
trouble, and this can only bo determined by
a scientific X-Ray examination. His X-Ray

the cause of the patient's affliction. Come
and be examined; It Is absolutely free. He
will not charge you one cent. Come and
find out what your trouble Is and he will ad
vise you lu reference to a cure. It is all
Iree. Ho ailu ao compensation.

corner Jadwln street, n well-known carpenter
and cltzen, says: "I don't know how I can
express In words sufficient pralso for Doctor
Ilyers' treatment. I had been troubled at
year with pains that often kept me from
im
k,
gT'
work, bast August I was laid up three week
nnd nearly nil of January and the whole 4
February. The pains teemed to come throuxl
the small of ray back down Into the left
groin. At times they were so severe I could
neither llo or sit down. 1 wns also troubled
greatly with my head. Dr. Byers' treatment
has cured me ot all these distressing condi
tions." DISEASE OF BOWELS.
Mrs. Barbara Dickson, Parker
street, Providence: "I had chronic diarrhoea
for fourteen years, which caused violent bear
ing down and drngglng palnn in my' abdomen
and loins. My bowels were often moved at
high as seven times In one day. The strain
ing finally brought about severo protruding
piles. These caused me much misery. When
I went to Doctor Byers' office 1 was so weak
from my suffering that 1 could hardly drag
myself along. The first treatment he gave
mo drove nil the palna out ot my hips and
legs. My bowels now move regularly one
a day, nnd tho piles have ceased troubling
me. Clod bless tho good Quaker doctor for
what ho has dona for me."

I sat down It wub Impassible for mo to get
up alone. The pain whs something terrific;
no ono will ever be able to appreciate the
torture thnt I endured. I tried various doc

niter hearing eo much about the wonderful
cures being performed by Doctor Dyers'
treatment 1 concluded to go td his office and
placo myself under his care. Todoy I ara
a living example of this man's superb skill.
I can walk nrpuiid like other people, and, In

God bless the great Quaker Doctor for what
he has dono for me."
