Gentlemen—There is no endorsement that the faculty of your Institute could ask that I would not willingly give. I fully realize that I owe not only my good health, but my life to the wonderful treatment received at the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, and would earnestly recommend any person needing the best medical or surgical attention to go for relief and cure to your Institution at Buffalo, N.Y. Words are inadequate to express the gratitude I owe you in so successfully treating my case.
Very truly yours, Mrs. C.B. SLEEPER.
Brainerd, Minn.
OVARIAN TUMOR MADE UP OF SMALL CYSTS (MULTILOCULAR).
It grew to enormous size in but five months. The patient, a young unmarried woman, left home expecting to die. She had several physicians. None of them could give her any definite information as to the nature of the growth or other than unfavorable expectations as to its probable effects.
It was successfully removed. The patient being able to be up and around in about two weeks with no unfavorable symptoms. Cure perfect. WORLD'S DISPENSARY MEDICAL ASSOCIATION, Buffalo, N.Y.:
My Dear Doctors—Many months have passed since I have written you concerning my health. I have remained perfectly well, and, in fact, my health was never better than since the tumor was removed.
You will remember my case: The tumor had only grown about five months, but it was of immense size, and I had despaired of life, and my family thought that I would not return alive from your Institution. Your skillful operation and removal of the tumor, which weighed over thirty pounds, with the kind nursing and good attention given me afterwards, brought me through sound and well. To you I feel that I owe all thanks. My prayer is for the success of the World's Dispensary Medical Association. You saved my life after I had given up all hope. The kind care that all gave me was something that could not be paid for with money. It was like being at home. I send you my picture, which will give you some idea of the change for the better in my looks. I am now married and am very happy.
Very respectfully, MRS. P.S. CRISSMAN.
Montrose, Henry Co., Mo.
