THENEWMETHOD 



In Mealth and Olsease. 



By W. E Forest. M. D., 12th Edition. Ke- 

 vised, Illustrated, and Enlarged. This is 

 the greatest and best work ever publisht 

 as a Home I'iiysician, and as 



A 4jiuide to Health. 



It makes the way from Weakness to 

 $$tren;;'lh so plain that only those who 

 are past recovery (the very few) need to 

 be sick, and the well who will follow its 

 teachings eaniiot be sioW. It is now 

 in many families the only counsellor in 

 matters of health, saving the need of call- 

 ing a physician and all expenses for medi- 

 cines, as it teaches Hygiene and the use 

 of Nature's remedies, not a tlriig; 

 treat nieul. 



All Clironio l>iseases 



are considered, and there is not a curable 

 disease that has not been helpt by some 

 of the " .V"" .Uflliods" given here; even 

 those who have been pronounced Con- 

 sumptive have been entirely cured. 

 While for Klieiintatisin. Intlit^-es- 

 tion, Ik.vspepsia. Constipation,

 'I'roiibles, Catai'rli, Kniacia- 

 lion. <jieneral Debility, IXerv- 

 ous I'Xliaiislion, IHseases I>e- 

 euliai- to Women, etc., the methods 

 are sure, and can be carried out at one's 

 own home and with little or no expense. 



A Ciuarantee. 



So confident are the publishers of the 

 results, that they offer to refund the 

 money to any one who will try " New 

 Methods" thoroughly, if the book is re- 

 turned in good condition. 



Xlie :^e-»v Edition 



is illustrated with a number of Anatom- 

 ical plates from the best English work on 

 Anatomy publisht, and others made ex- 

 pressly for this work; contains 300 pages, 

 printed on fine calendered paper, and al- 

 though the price)of the first edition (much
