It is scarcely ever necessary with the advanced methods employed by Dr. Blackstone to resort to any but pleasant and agreeable forms of treatment Appreciative patients have often expressed their gratification to know that I do not approve of the knife except in the most urgent and absolutely necessary instances. It is UNDOUBTEDLY a fact that three out of every four operations might be avoided. Inexperienced physicians are too eager to “go into” a patient and too apt to operate with the HOPE of relieving, rather than for he positive knowledge that they WILL relieve.

See Dr. Blackstone for the safest surest, quickest cure for Heart. Liver, Kidney or Bladder trouble. Nerve or Brain Exhaustion. Prostatic or Pelvic disorders. Varicocele. Piles or Fistula. Chronic Constitpation, Special Diseases peculiar to either sex. Specific Blood Poison, etc. I treat a hundred of these difficult cases successftrily where the local doc-
