Although avery buey man, Dr. R. V.

in which to write a great book of over a thousand pages, entitled The People’s

Common Sense Medica) Adviser, in Plain English, Or Medicine Simplified. Few books printed in'the English language have reached so greatasale as has this

been sola at $1.50 each. The profits on this enormous sale having repaid its author ‘for the great amount of labor and money expended on its production, he has now decided to give away, absolutelo free, 500,000 copies of this valuable book, the ‘recipient only being required to mail to the World’s Dispensary Medical Associa- tion, of Buffalo, N. Y., of which company he is president, 3l one cent stamps, to cover cost of mailing only, and the book will be sent postpaid. It is a veritable medical librarv, complete in one volume. It contains 1008 large pages, and over 300 iNustrations, some of them in colors. The

Free Edition is precisely the same es that sold at $1.50, except only that the books are bound in strong manilla paper covers, instead of cloth. It is not often that our readers have an opportunity tc obtain a valuable book on such generous terms, and we predict that few will miss availing themselves of the unusual avd liberal | offer to which we have called their at- tention.
