; i-t, '!'. A. Slocum. M. C., of New
York City.
He has discovered a reliable and
absolule cure lor consumption, and
all bronchial, throat, lung and chest
diseases, catarrhal affections, general
decline and weakness, loss of flesh
arid all conditions of wasting away;
and to make its great merits known,
will s“fid three free bottles of his
newly discovered remedies to any af
flicted reader of Hie Ledger.
Already his "new scientific system
of medicine” has permanently cured
thousands of apparently hopeless
eases.
The Doctor considers it not only
his professional, but his religious
duty—a duty which he owes to suffer
ing humanity—to donate his infallible
cure.
He lias proved Hie "dreaded con
sumption'’ to be a curable disease
beyond a doubt, in any climate, and
itas on file in liis Aujerican and Euro
pean laboratories thousand ofheart-
felt testimonials of gratitude” from
those benefitted and cured, in all
parts of the world.
Catarrhal and pulmonary troubles
lead to consumption, and consump
tion, uninterrupted, means speedy
and certain death. Don’t delay until
it is too late. Simply write T. A.
Slocum, M. C., 98 Pine street, New
York, giving express and postoffice
address, and the free medicine will be
promptly sent. Please tell the Doc
tor you saw his offer in The Ledger.
