THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 17
ONE DAY ONLY
Office Hoars; 10 a. m. to 4 p. m.
No Charge for Examination
Dr. Mellenthin is a regular
graduate in medicine and surgery
and ia licensed by the state of
Oregon. He visits professionally
the more important towns and
cities and offers to all who call
on this trip consultation and ex­
amination free, except the ex­
pense of treatment when desired.
According to his method of
treatment he does not operate for
chronic appendicitis, gall stones,
ulcers of the stomach, tonsils or
adenoids.
He has to his credit many won­
derful results in diseases of the
stomach, fiver, bowels, blood,
skin, nerves, heart, kidneys, bed
wetting, bladder, catarrh, weak
lungs, rheumatism, sciatic, leg
ulcers and rectal ailments.
If you have been ailing for any
length of time and do not get any
better, do not fail to call, as im­
proper measures rather than di­
sease are very often the cause of
long standing trouble.
Remember the above date, that
examination on this trip will be
free and that his treatment is
different.
