Several years ago I had occasion to become an inmate of the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, No. 683 Main Street, Buffalo, N.Y. I was afflicted with an enlarged prostate and chronic Inflammation, or catarrhal condition of the bladder. I was largely benefited by the treatment I received there, and had I remained a little longer, as I was advised to do by the doctor who attended me, I should have fully recovered. I was so nearly cured that I did not think it necessary to remain longer, as I supposed nature would do for me what remained to be done, to effect a perfect cure. My business was urgent. I could not well remain longer. In this I made a mistake, I should have remained longer. I was seventy-two years old at the time. I bear willing testimony to the ability of the medical staff and the interest the doctors take in the welfare of their patients. The nurses and all the subordinates were very kind and seemed to vie with each other to contribute to the pleasure and happiness of the inmates of the Institute. One will find the Institute equipped with all the improvements known to modern science, for the promotion and restoration of health. It is impossible to do justice to its merits in a short article of this kind. Persons must go there and see and judge for themselves, of the wonders of this extraordinary medical establishment. If they cannot recover their health there, in my Judgment, it is of no use to go elsewhere.

Case 820,804. OBSTINATE AND COMPLICATED DISEASE.

WORLD'S DISPENSARY MEDICAL ASSOCIATION:

Gentlemen—Yours of July 12th to hand. I am only too glad to comply with your request. Having suffered for many years with a complication of diseases and feeling conscious that they were rapidly making serious inroads upon my constitution, and that I was speedily becoming unable and incapacitated to attend to my ordinary business. I resolved, after reading a number of testimonials from your patients, to place myself under your treatment at the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute. With heart-felt gratitude I can truthfully say I am relieved of my trouble. I most cheerfully and earnestly recommend this Institution to all who are afflicted with chronic and painful diseases, no matter of what nature. During my stay there I saw some wonderful cures and surgical operations.

Yours truly,
JOHN H. SMITH,
Deckertown, Sussex Co., N.J.
