Indiana Medical and Surgical Institute, The Oldest, The Largest, The Best. THIRTY YEARS EXPERIENCE, eMar]y Imitators but qo Equal Permit us to call the attention of our readers to the important fact that there are three essential steps in the successful treatment of disease. First, a correct diagnosis; second, the selection of the proper remedies in their best possible form, and third, a thorough knowledge of knowing how to prepare these remedies and their physiological effects upon the human body, in order to effect a cure. In the three above named facts Dr. D. W. Tucker has no equal in the state of Indiana. He has treated many thousands of eases within the last thirty years. If one-fourth of the people that are now in the cemetery had consulted and been treated by some good Specialist instead of their family doctor, they would have lived twenty years longer. Only a Specialist who thoroughly understands Chronic Diseases, can treat them successfully. Dr. Tucker is without doubt the ablest Specialist in this state, and has treated and cured more Chronic and Private Diseases than all the other Specialists in this state combined. A doctor that has restored thousands to health, and can produce undeniable proof of the fact, must be regarded with respect. This is the record of Dr. Tucker, which can not be equaled by any other Specialist in the United States. His success is the result of THIRTY YEARS of careful study, extensive research, observation and remarkable experience in the treatment and cure of thousands of Chronic and Private Diseases of the Brain, Heart, Lungs, Liver, Kidneys, Bladder, Rectum, Gleet, Impotency, Nervous Diseases, Catarrh, Piles, Varicocele, Strictures, all Private Disease of both sex. If Dr. Tucker can not cure you no other Specialist in the United States can. He has deposited in bank ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS that he has treated more cases of Chronic Diseases and performed more remarkable cures than any THREE SPECIALISTS in the state of Indiana. He will not deceive you, and guarantees to cure every case he takes for treatment. He is vouched for by the best banks and citizens of the state. The only Master Specialist in the State of Indiana can be found only nt the Indiana Medical and Surgical Institute, at No. io West Wayne street. Call on or address, DR. D.W.TUCKERFort Wayne. Indiana.
