United Doctors Make Free Offer Will Cure Few Patients Free to Show the Won = ders of the New System Free examination , free consulta- tion and free treatment until you are entirely well. Such is the gen- I erous offer made by the United Doctors to all patients accepted for treatment during their visit at Val- entine at the Dohoher hotel on riday : , April 8th and Saturday , April 9th , and at Wood Lake on Thursday ' , April 14. The only charge that will be made is for the medicine used , which must be paid cash. To very poor patients the I medicines will be furnished free also. The object of the United Doctors in making this grand free offer is to secure a few supposedly incurable cases quickly to demon- strate the tremendous curative powers of this wonderful new sys- tem of medicine as used by the United Doctors. _ These , specialists solicit one or two of the most difficult cases from each locality in order to show what can be done by scientific treatment , even in the worst forms of diseases. The treatment used by the United Doctors is non-surgical. They nev er : use the knife , never mutilate the body which God has built in his image. Only the best and purest of drugs are used by these special- ists , their motto being that every sick person is entitled to the best medicines to be found in nature. I In order to obtain pure drugs I they compound in their own labora- tory all the medicine used in their treatment and thus every patient is assured pure medicine , the beat ob- tainable regardless of cost. The expensive and elaborate In- struments used in diagnosis and the extreme care used in securing pure drugs and preparing them es pecially for each case makes the treatment used by the United Doc- tors more expensive than ordinary treatment , yet the large number of patients treated makes it possible to put the price within the reach of all. This is is really a very remark- able and generous offer _ by these great specialists. It is an offer of free treatment until well , regard- less of the length of time. This offer is good only in cases accepted for treatment during their visit in Valentine on Friday , April 8th and Saturday , April 9th , and Wood Lake on Thursday , Aprill4. Consultation and examination is free , but only curable cases will be accepted for treatment. If your case is incurable you will be told so and not one penny of your money ' , . accepted.
