A New Method of Treating Disease. 



HOSPITAL REMEDIES. 



What are they i There Is a new departure 

 in the treatment of disease. It consists in 

 the collection of the specifics used by noted 

 specialists of Europe and America, and 

 bringing them witliin the reach of all. For 

 instance, the treatment pursued by special 

 physicians who treat indigestion, stomach 

 and liver troubles only, was obtained and 

 prepared. The treatment of other physi- 

 cians, celebrated for curing catarrh, was 

 procured, and so on till these incomparable 

 cures now include disease of the lungs, 

 kidneys, female weakness, rheumatism and 

 nervous debility. 



This new method of " one remedy for one 

 disease " must appeal to the common-sense 

 of all sufferers, many of whom have experi- 

 enced the ill ellects, and thoroughly realize 

 the absurdity of the claims of Patent 

 Medicines which are guaranteed to cure 

 every ill out of a single bottle, and the use 

 of which, as statistics prove, lias ruined 

 more stomachs than alcohol. A circular 

 describing these new remedies is sent free 

 on receipt of stamp to pay postage, by 

 Hospital Remedy Company, Toronto, Can- 

 ada, sole proprietors.

DICIIONAIIY. Tliat this is an unfortunate state of 

 affairs will l»e a<iinittefl by all. anrt It is due to the 

 laet that no one wave the rich could afford theni. 



The Dietinnary is a neceHsity in every home, sclioftl

 or ignorant, rich or poor, should have it within reach, 

 and refer l«i its contents every day in the year. 



The "Loom is Re-print" contains all the matter as 

 compiled and urratiKed by ouresteenied and honored 

 author and stateBraan— Noah Webster. About 40 

 years of his lite was devoted to this ^reat work and 

 when we consider the fact that this book contains 

 about 100,000 words with their correct spelling, 

 derivation and definition, we will appreciate that 

 these years must have been well spent. 



Some idea of the magnitude of this book may be 

 gained from the fact that it contains over 44o cubic 

 inches of paper, and has about yoo,oiMt square inches 

 of printed surface. This is a cheap, re-print edition 

 without illustrations. 



In addition to the loo.ooo words, it contains a 

 portrait of the author, together with his biography, 

 and a valuable table of 12,000 synonymous words,

Uoolittle on 4tueen-Reariii;;p. 



Queens can be reared in the upper stories 

 of hives used for extracted honey, where a 

 queen-excluding honey-board is used, which 

 are as good, if not superior, to Queens 

 reared by any other process ; and that, too, 

 while the old Queen is doing duty below, 

 just the same as though Queens were not 

 being reared above. This is a fact, though 

 it is not generally known. 



If you desire to know how this can be 

 done— how to have Queens fertilized in up- 

 per stories, while the old Queen is laying 

 below— how you may safely introduce any 

 Queen, at any time of the year when bees 

 cay fly— all about the different races of 

 bees — all about shipping Queens, queen- 

 cages, candy, for queen-cages, etc.— all 

 about foi-ming nuclei, multiplying or unit- 

 ing bees, or weak colonies, etc. ; or, in fact 

 everything about the queen-business which 

 you may want to know, send for " Doolit- 

 tle's Scientific Queen-Rearing;" a book of 

 170 pages, which is nicely bound in cloth, 

 and as interesting as a story. Price, $1.00.
