The above statements are from prominent disinterested men and women, many of whom represent large business interests, leading fami- les and the bewt blood and chivalry of the south. len and women who would not tell what w: not true for either health or life, and cons ently establish beyond doubt the following facts, if human testimony is to be relied upon: First, that Dr. R. C. Flower, by his keen in- tuitional perception, can mort accurately diag- nose the diseases of any one without being told. Second, that his cures are more like miracles than ordinary cures, and that his skill is so phenomenal as to entitle him to the credit given him for years at his home. Third, that because others have failed it is no sign that this Boston specialist cannot cure a desperate case. is specialties seem to be cancer, consump- tion, tumor, paralysis, rheumatism, heart and stomach troubles. As oné of his pationts said, “He handles these diseases as I would a play- thing.” Those who would know more abont his treat- ment of disenses. both medically and mentally, jens and theories of health, life, happi- should send five 2c. stamps to the R. C. Flower Medical Co., 559 Columbus avenue, Bos- ton, Mass., for a book recently published, en- titled “The Science of Health and the Problem of Life.” This work also contains four or five of Dr. Flower's able and interesting lectures and table talks on Physical Degeneracy, Proper Generation, Self Government, Immortality of the Human Life, Evils of the Bar Room and other subjects. For want of space we have only published the statement of a few of many of the patients cured by Dr. R. ©. Flower, but have endeavored to select some one from the different centers of the south, as fur as we have investigated. As are- sult of our efforts we are convinced that Dr. R.
