A New Method of Treating 



HOSPITAL REMEDIES. 



What are they ! 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 

 [ihysicians 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 tlian 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.

A Special Club Rate. 



A Magazine of the choice literary charac- 

 ter which the Illustrated Home Journal 

 sustains, will add many pleasures to any 

 "family circle." Its beautiful illustrations 

 and interesting reading-matter will make it 

 heartily welcomed at every " fireside " in 

 the land. 



We desire that every one of our readers 

 should secure its regular visits during the 

 year 1890, and in order to induce them to 

 do so, we will make this tempting offer : 



We will Club the American Bee Journal 

 and the Illustrated Home Journal, aud 

 mail both periodicals during the whole year 

 1890 for lil.SO, if the order is received at 

 this office before January 1, 1890. 



Such a remarkably low club rate as the 

 above, should induce eveiy reader of the 

 Bee Journal to accept it without a mo- 

 ment's delay. 



As a further inducement, we will mail 

 the superb number for December, 1889, 

 free to those who send their subscriptions 

 early ; that is, until aU the December num- 

 bers now on hand are taken. 



New subscribers to the above club will 

 have the December numbers of both of the 

 Journals fi-ee — as long as the stock lasts. 

 So the sooner they subscribe, the more they 

 will get for their money. 



I^" Some have requested us to print a 

 card on a less number than 100 Honey 

 Almanacs, and we have concluded to ac- 

 commodate them. We will furnish 25 

 copies with card printed on the first page, 

 postpaid, for $1.10; 50 copies for $1.70 ; 

 75 copies for $2.30. See prices for more 

 on the page 823.
