connected with our institution and have thereby learned our original and
improved methods of treatment. We have a large and competent Staff of
Specialists and while we have sometimes found it necessary to make
changes, yet we always manage to retain the most expert and skillful, as
we cannot afford to part with the services of those who excel.

By adopting similar names to those which have long designated our
world-famed institutions, some have endeavored to deceive and mislead
invalids who were seeking relief. Others have named so-called "Electric"
Trusses, "Liver Pads," and other contrivances after our President,
thereby expecting to reap benefits from Dr. Pierce's well-known
professional standing. Neither the Doctor nor this Association have any
interest in any such articles.

NO BRANCHES.--Remember we have no branches except the one at No. 3 New

Tinctures, Fluid Extracts and other pharmaceutical preparations used by
the Staff of Physicians and Surgeons of the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical
Institute in their practice, is not inappropriately called the _World's
Dispensary_, for within its walls is prepared a series of remedies of
such exceeding merit that they have acquired world-wide fame, and are
sold in vast quantities in nearly every civilized country.

The structure, located at 660 to 670 Washington Street, immediately in
the rear of the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, is of brick,
with sandstone trimmings, six stories high, and 100 feet square. Its
most striking architectural features exteriorly are massiveness,
combined with grace and beauty of outline, and great strength.

THE BASEMENT.

The basement or first story opens on a level with the Washington Street
sidewalk, and is occupied by a plant of two large boilers, which supply
the steam to run a huge Americ
