10 THE EVENING STAR, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 1897-12 PAGES DOCTOR McC OY TEACHES A LESSON The Renewal of the Rate of $3 a Month to All Patients and for All Diseases. Given as the Illustration to Carry the Lesson Home--What He Considers the Proper Use of the Word Free. President Cleveland’s Words of Warning Against Ignorant Pretenders. Dector McCoy had something to say nbout offers of free treatment. The essence of it was simply, that it is not honest to lend people to a medical office cn free offers and take their money. When Doctor McCoy established his practice In Washington, for a stated time he treated everyone free. He would as soon thought of cutting his arm off as of accepting a cent from anyone who responded to his free ffer. When following this for a stated period he advertised $3 a month, he stated that the 83 was to er the cost of medicines; that his services and those his col- ngue were free. He would 1s soon thought of cutting his arm off as of taking more th: 33 from any pa- nt. ce or MeCoy made the word “Free” cause his use of it was His offer to treat patients for a month, the average cost of medi- ines, was believed and accepted by thousands because they knew Doctor -Me€oy id the truth, because they knew his superb skill as a physician had never been tarnished by deceit or trickery as a man. It is mot enough that this be once stated in public print. The lesson needs to be brought home so hard it will never be forgotten. The public must be protected from any methods that are not perfectly sincere. The sick ones of the public In any event deserve protection, so Doctor McCoy teaches this lesson, giving the people again his offer of $3 a month and promising to maintain this offer just mg as the resources of his office will permit of it. that is, until the number of patients under treatment becomes so great a» to prevent the posstbility of his personal carc and attention. This ix the offer: UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE ALL PA- TIENTS APPLYING FOR OR RESEW ING TREATMENT AT DOCTOR McCOY'S OFFICES WILL BE TREATED UNTIL CURED AT THE UNIFORM RATE OF 83 A MONTH. THIS APPLIES TO OLD PATIENTS RENEWING TREATMENT AND TO NEW PATIENTS COMMENC ING TREATMENT. IT IS NOT CON. FINED TO ANY ONE DISEASE. IT MEANS THAT VO MATTER WHAT THE SICKN MAY BE IF A DOCTOR'S SEKVICES ARE AT ALL REQUIRED, TH ATIENT WILL BE TREATED . CURED AT THE RATE OF 83 A MOXTH.

In fact, my hearing has been restored to 1t normal condition.” PRESIDENT CLEVELAND ON IGNORANT PRETENDERS TO MEDICAL KNOWLEDGE. They were ringing words that President Cleveland addressed to doctors at the semi-centennial celebra- tion at the Academy of Medicine in New York last week; words that will live and linger in the memory of the profession. “You have demonstrated the peril to health of unwholesome water and noxious surroundings, and yet much remains to be done by way of protect- ing our people. You have established n code of ethics which condemns charlataniam in all its form: yet ignorant pretenders roam over the land offering to perform miracles, or are located Im our towns and cities preying upon the weakness of the sick and afflicted. need not suggest that such evils are allowed to exist by reason of the insufficiency of our laws or a laxity in their execution. I have intimated that for this condition you are not responsible in a professional sensc, but are you sure as citizens you are doing all in your power to remedy the situation? “If laws are necded to abolish abuses which your professional in- vestigations have unearthed, your fraternity should not be strangers to the agencies which make the laws. If enactments already in force are neglected or badly executed, you that ft is your insist upon their should not forget privilege and duty For many years Doctor McCoy has urged in the columns of the public press the vigorous enforce- ment of such law: we have against the «rime of deceiving the sick. That the public might be protected, words of warning and denunciation have rung freely and fearlessly in Doctor McCoy's pub- Hished matter. Now that the Chief Executive head of the Nation takes up the same theme and pre- sents almost word for word, sentence for sen- tence, the same thought, Doctor McCoy trusts that his fellow members of the profession and all right- thinking men and women will heed the message and that such a vigorous enforeement of existing laws, faulty as they may be, will follow as will drive from our midst bogus doctors, irregular prac- Utioners and men who trade and traffic upon the ills and misfortunes of their fellow men. Nor has Doctor McCoy been contented alone with fearless words in the newspaper columns. His fees have been so low as to draw closely the distinguish- ing line between geruine skill and bogus pretention. The ignorant pretender scares people into paying big fees, often inducing them to come to his office by free offers and relying upon his doctors’ to frighten or cajole them into giving bim large sums of money. The regular practitioner protects the people against this by giving genuine skill at fees which all can afford. No greater power for the protection of the people from schemes of medical adventurers has been found than such an offer as this which Doctor McCoy makes in an adjoining column. CURING CATARRH OF NOSE, THROAT AND STOMACH. A. D. Shaner, 901 Steuben st. n.w.: “When I came to Doctor McCoy I had suffered for @ long time from Catarrh. Mucus collecting in the back part of my chroat kept me hawking and spit- ting all the time. My stomach was weak and nauseated. My sleep was not refreshing. In the morning I was as tired as before going to bed. My work became a burden. I lost my vense of taste. Doetor McCoy has made a new man of me. The catarrhal trouble is cured. I sleep well, breathe freely and work with a cheerful heart.” THEY WERE DEAF, BUT NOW THEY HEAR. Rev. L. L.

A kaleidoscopic mass of bunting, artistically arranged, greeted the eyes of those who passed through the doorway of the large hall, and above all a huge star of incan- descent electric lights blazed forth. Excep- tionally pretty girls, daintily and appropri- ately gowned, made the panorama irresist- ably attractive, and to this was added pleasing music. The occasion was the open- ing of the McKinley and Hobart carnival, under the auspices of the Women’s Auxil- iary Republican Association, for the benefit of the McKinley and Hobart Marching Club and its drum corps. The club was one of the leading republican organizations dur- ing the recent campaign, and in order that it may be properly uniformed and make a creditable showing in the inaugural parade the auxiliary association of women has un- dertaken to raise, by means of the carnival, the necessary money to accomplish the de- sired object. Notwithstanding weather unpropitious to an exaggerated degree and several other handicaps, everything was in readiness for visitors by 8 o'clock last evening. Every state of the Union that cast a majority vote for McKinley nas been honored with a rep- resentative booth at the carnival. The coat- of-arms of each state stands forth promi- nently from its booth, surrounded by suit- able decorations. In addition, there is a District of Columbia booth, as well as candy, flowers and pop-corn stands, a pad- Gle stand, a tea garden, a fortune teller and a graphophone table. A feature of the New Jersey booth is a beautiful doll, donated and dressed by Mrs. Garret A. Hobart, wife of the Vice President-elect. The doll has also been named by Mrs. Hobart, and it is to be presented to the person who shall register the correct guess in that regard. The Opening. Owing to the condition of the weather a fcrmal opening of the carnival was dis- pensed with, Mrs. J. Ellen Foster, national president of the Woman’s Republican As- sociations, who wes expected to make the address of the evening, being unable to be present. Miss Athalia Yingling sounded the essembly on a cornet, and then Mrs. W. S. Odell, chairman of the carnival com- mittee, after a few appropriate remarks, introduced Judge John C. Chaney, presi- dent of the marching club. Judge Chaney co.gratulated the ladies of the association on their success in transforming the hall into a bower of beauty. The weather, ne said, cavsed a bad beginning for the car- nival, but a good ending must surely fol- low. The undertaking, so said the speaker, marked the beginning of the rejoicing ove> the great political victory of a few months ago. He aroused considerable enthusiasm by referring to the fact that women are taking an active part in politics and by predicting that in the near future the weaker sex will occupy seats in the Sen- ate and House of Representatives. Inf an- nouncing the wheels of the carnival to be in motion, Judge Chaney expressed the Lcpe that each booth would make returns of cisn as large in proportion as the vote of the state of which it bore tHe name. Dancirg commenced at 10:30 o'clock, and until a late hour merriment prevailed. The carnival will continue until and including Febrvary 12. Last night was assigned to the District of Columbia, while this even- ing is set aside particularly for the con- gressional delegations of Ohio and New Jersey.
