WHO ARE THE UNITED DOCTORS?,
Some Information About the Specialists Who will
be in Alliance, on Monday, April 4th, and
x Tuesday, April 5th.
Since the announcement has been
made in thcBc columns that the Chief
Consulting Physician of the United
Doctors, who have their permanent
Nebraska institute located on the sec
ond floor of the Neville Block, corner
of iGth and Harney Streets, Omaha,
Nebraska, would pay a short visit to
the Drake Hotel at Alliance, the ques
tion has been asked many times: Who
arc the United Doctors and what do
they do? .The answer is this:
The United Doctors, as the name
implies, is an association of expert
medical specialists who have united to
organize a new school of medicine; a
new and more scientific and positive
system of curing human ailments. For
centuries tbo world has been full of
different "cults" and "isms" of medi
cities. We had the old root and herb
doctor with his bitter potions; tbo Al
lopathic with calomel and quinine in
heroic doses; the Eclectic without his
calomel; the Osteopath and the Christ
ian Scientist We were doctored by
heat, by electricity, by baths at the
Hot Springs and by a multitude of
men and methods. Some of the pa
tients were cured, some died who
should have been cured. It was im
possible fcr the ordinary person to say
which method of treating diseases was
the best, and the physicians of the
various schools were so biased that
they could see good only in their own
method; all others were, necessarily,
bad.
Evident there is good in all of
them for they all cured some cases,
Also thero is bad in all for they all
failed at times and allowed misery to
remain Or death to come where a cure
should.havc been effected.
A tremendous stride forward was
made when the association of the
United Doctors was formed- The
founders of this association consisted
of eminent specialists from the various
schools of practice. Eclectics, Homeo
opatlis, Allopaths, Regular and Irreg
ulars met and agreed to drop their
prejudices and form a new system of
treatment, which would embrace all
ihe good points of the old methods and
leave out the bad. The results of the
efforts of these world-famous special
ists, of the various schools, was the
wonderful treatment now being used
by the United Doctors. All of this
was not accomplished in a day or two,
but has taken years of patient work
by these specialists in their great insti
tutions in the east; Homeopaths,
Eclectics, Allopaths, all working side
by side, each throwing away his old
ideas when he was convinced there was
something better, until at last, out of
the old chaos and confusion, came the
new and perfect system, as it is now
used by the United Doctors.
The cost of these specialists was
great, not only in the labor of forming
the new system of treatment, but also
in the effort it cost them to ignore their
prejudices in favor of the various
schools in which they were originally
educated. But their record has been
great in health and happiness restored
to hundreds and thousands who were
going to their graves iu misery, pro
nounced incurable by old methods-
Th'i3 wonderful new system of medi
cine has cured thousands of cases of
chronic diseases of the liver, kidue, s,
skin, heart, lungs, bowels and stomach,
including rheumatism, paialysis, neu
ralgia, appendicitis, gall stones, piles,
goiter, rupture, diseases of women and
diseases of men, which had beeu pro
nounced incurable by other doctors.
Mrs. Tilitha Carr of Papilliou, Neb.,
says four years ago she had a nervous
Victim of Misfortunes
It is an old saying that "misfortunes
never come singly." Charley Antrim,
one of the tonsorial artists at Brown's
barber shop, has a brother at Denver,
Walter Antrim, secretary of the Aerie
of Eagles at that city, who believes
that he has had more hard luck in the
last month than falls to the lot of men
in a life time.
According to the Denver Post of last
Monday, he had an automobile and bet
it on Nelson to beat Wolgast. Now he
has no automobile.
He had $50 which he intended to bet
on Nelson in addition to the automo
bile, but on the night befoie the fight
be loaned it to a "friend." The
"friend" left town and he'is out the

break-down, including rheumatism,
stomach and bowel trouble- She got
so bad, members of her family had to
sit up with her night after night, each
time expecting her to die before morn
ing. She grew worse under treatment
from her home doctor and finally a
surgeon from another city told her if
she would be operated on, she would
be able to do her housework the next
day. She was operated on and the
result of that operation confined her to
her bed for eight months. When she
left her bed, heV neighbor took her to
the United Doctors' office at Omaha.
In six weeks from that time she says:
"I feel better than I have for the past
three years. I cat well, do my work,
sleep well and have not a particle of
paiu. I feel like a new woman-"
Louis Schultz, a prosperous farmer
living on K. R. No. 2 Plattsmouth,
Nebr-, says for twelve years he had
been treating with his home doctors,
those in Council Bluffs, Iowa, and the
best ones in St. Paul, Minn. He even
went clear to Hot Springs, Arkansas,
and took the hot baths at Lincoln, all
of which gave him no relief, Iu speak
ing of his case, he says: "I went to
the United Doctors. They told me
morn about myself in ten minutes,
than all the other doctors put together
iu all the years before. Now my stom
ach gives mo no trouble. I eat any
thing and digest it perfectly. My kid
neys are better and my rheumatism
improving so rapidly in this short
time, that I am sure my recovery will
be complete."
E. C Carlson of Wausa, Neb., says:
I am now as well as I over was iu my
life- When I commenced treatment
with you, I was barely able" to walk,
such was the pain I had. Now, after
taking your treatment for five months,
I enjoy perfect health."
Mrs. Alice Griswokl of 1619 Freder
ick St., Omaha, Neb., says she had ap
pendicitis in a very severe form. She
did not believe she could be(cured with
out a surgical operation but took the
United Doctors' treatment with little
hope. After the first two or three
doses, she began to feel better and in
less than a month was entirely cured
and has had no return of the trouble
since.
These people were cured in their own
homes without surgical operation and
they are only a few out of the thous
ands who have betn cured by the
United Doctors at their various Insti
tutes throughout the United States.
These specialists have hundreds and
thousands of testimonials from cured
patients on file at their offices. Any
one interested in any particular disease
can secure the names of patients who
were cured of that disease by writing
to the Uuited Doctors at their Omaha
Institute. These testimonials are from
responsible people of Nebraska and
weie given voluntarily out of the grati
tude of their hearts, so you can believe
implicitly what they tell you.
It is this wonderful all home treat
ment that the United Doctors are
bringing to Alliance on Monday, April
4th, and Tuesday, April 5th.
Ifjou aio skeptical write to the
United Doctors for the names and ad
dt esses of patients whom they have
cuiedand you will be furnished with
as many as oti may desire to investi
gate. .
Remember the United Doctors will
be here two days and while here will
receive patients at the Drake Hotel.
If you are sick and suffering and
want to be made well and happy, call
on the doctor when he comes to Alli
ance. photographstudio and a few da s ago
the manager eloped with 300 of the
studio funds.
He had an insurance policy on his
studio and contents uutil Jauuary of
this year, when, through an oversight
he allowed it to lapse- Early this morn
ing fire broke out in a small closet ad
joining the studio and when the last bit
of flame flickered and died out he was
loser to the extent of St.aoo on studio
and contents. He and his wife and
12 year old son, Clifford, were sleeping
in a room adjoining the studio' and
narrowly escaped being burned to death.
"If you can beat that string of hard
luck I want to know it," said Autrim,
after enumerating his various misfor
tunes. ,
