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 within 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 effects, 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, has 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. 



51D26t Imly. 



Xlie Report of the proceedings of the 

 20th annual session of the International 

 American Bee- Association contains, besides 

 the interesting report, the new songs and 

 music then used, and engravings of the 

 present officers as well as the retiring ones. 

 In all, it contains 36 pages. It is for sale 

 at this ofiice. The price is 25 cents, post- 

 paid.

 letters than bank bills. Any one can get 

 the money on them. A Money Order can
