NORTON DAVIS EMPLOY NO AMATEURS There' Is no economy In employing an amateur to do an expert's task. Nine .times. In ten failure follows, in a large percentage ot instances'the result is. harm. The average physician Is an amateur In the treatment ot men's diseases. He doesn't treat enough cases to learn a great deal about them. His time Is so fully occupied In treating a full assortment of human Ills that be cannot devote special study to any particular branch of practice. Most diseases are sufficiently simple to require no special training other than that received In the medical colleges and that afforded by experi ence in general practice. The more complex and perplexing ail ments the family practitioner seldom cares to treat. He prefers to be relieved ot tasks beyond his training, though cannot without fear of Injuring a patient's confidence In his ability recommend the cervices of a specialist Instead ot his own. The true specialist Is a physician who Is absolutely expert in the treatment of a few diseases. He knows all about the few diseases be treats and he treats difficult cases with about the same certainty with which the general practitioner treats the most common ail ment. For twenty-one years we have been treating men's diseases. We began our special work after thorough preparation at the best medical colleges and hospitals ot the country, and have cured mora' men than any other institute In the Northwest. "Weakness" Our success In permanently curing that condition commonly known as "weakness" fully demonstrates the absolute correctness of our method of treatment, which Is a method employed by ourselves alone. We do not stimulate the functions to temporary activity by the use of strong Internal tonics. This Is the course commonly pursued by both general practitioners and special ists, and Is a treatment that cannot possibly result In a permanent cure. "Weakness" Is merely a symptom of chronic Inflammation In the prostate gland, brought on by excesses, early dissipation or by the' Improper treatment of some contracted disease. A complete and radical cure Is, therefore, a ques tion of restoring the prostate gland to Its. normal state, and this we ac complish promptly and completely mainly by the use of local remedies. Our treatment Is original and scien tific, and has proven absolutely ef fective in thousands of cases. We are convinced that by no other methods can full and permanent restoration of strength and vigor be accomplished. Contracted Disorders Improper treatment of contracted disorders can easily bring loss of power. An examination reveals this very cause In a large portion of the cases of "weakness." Lingering In flammation centering in the pros tate gland is sure to result In dis ordered functions, and the condition will never be corrected until the Inflamed and swollen gland Is re stored to Its normal state. We thoroughly cure every contracted disease we treat. The remedies we employ are known to ourselves alone, and no other physician has yet produced equally prompt and thorough cures. .Stricture Our treatment for stricture re moves the necessity tor surgical operations, even In severe cases of long standing. We do no cutting or dilating. No other physician em ploys our method ot overcoming this disorder, so the service we offer you Is original and distinctive. Do not give up hope because others have failed. We will cure you and the cure will be a prompt and pain less one. Our treatment dissolves the stricture and permanently re moves every obstruction from the urinary passages, subdues all in flammation, relieves all Irritation or congestion that may exist In the kidneys or bladder, reduces en largement In the prostate gland and restores health and tone to all or gans affected by the disease. Reflex Ailments Often the condition appearing to be the chief disorder is only a reflex ailment resulting from some other disease. Weakness sometimes comes from varicocele or stricture; skin and bone diseases result from blood poison taint, and physical and mental decline follow long standing functional disorder. Our long experience In treating men enables us to determine the exact conditions that exist and to treat accordingly, thus removing every damaging cause and its effects. Varicocele This most prevalent of all dis eases of men is also the most neg lected, either through dread, of the harsh methods of treatment com monly employed or through Ignor ance of the grave dangers that ac company the disease. As varicocele Interferes directly with the circu lation and the process ot waste and repair throughout the generative organs, the necessity of a prompt and thorough cure cannot be too forcibly emphasized. We cure vari cocele by an absolutely painless process. Our cures are thorough and. absolutely permanent, and afe accomplished without the use of knife, ligature or caustic. Specific Blood Poison Others dose the system with min eral poisons scarcely less dangerous than the disease Itself. The best they hope to do by this" treatment Is to '.keep the disease from manifest lng Its presence upon the surface of the body. Under our treatment the entire system Is cleansed. The last taint of virus is destroyed. Every symptom vanishes to ap pear 'no more. We employ harm less blood-cleansing remedies, here tofore unknown in the treatment of this disease. They cure by neu tralizing and absolutely destroying the poison In the system. Such cures cannot be other than complete and permanent. Piles Our treatment Is mild, gentle and certain. We never fail In the most obstinate cases, even after all ordi nary treatments have failed. We use no knife, ligature or caustic Our practice in this disease con stantly grows as a result of rec ommendations from those we have cured.
