His fane as a specialist has gone abroad in the land; even away, beyond the borders of his own state, and patients from all over the country make pilgrimages to his home to be treated. Periodically, to get away from the rush of work and to get a change, he leaves home and journeys over the state, al ways in these perignations, making Pickens and Walhalla his objective points, as he has relatives at both places. Inci dentally he ministers unto suf fering humanity as he journeys along on this pilgrimage.

He has several patients in the coun ty and would like for them all to meet him on these two days, as his stay in town will neces sarily be limited. After getting through treating his patients here, he will go to Wahalla, Anderson, Greenwood and Aiken. This is a pretty long itinerary he is making and he has limited his time. See him while you can and be cured. ie has made some wonderful cures and his patients are loudly singing his praises. Dr. Bowen is a high-toned, Christian gentleman, and there is none of the fake or charlatan practices of the quack about his methods. He gives the benefit of knowledge and experience gained by years of hard study and practice and has made good in his chosen profession. Aside from the record he has made abroad as a physician, he is a Pickens county product, (a son of our good friend, Hon. W. T. Boweni,) and is w~ell and faorably known to our readers, many of whom were his school mates and they are all exceed inly proud of the record he has made and take great pleasure in recommending him to friends.
