Startling Cures 
From every portion of the United States 
150,000 Patients Treated at Home 
Many Cured after Physicians Failed 
The following testimonials are but a few of the many hundreds 
which we are constantly receiving from grateful patients who have 
been cured by our Improved Special Personal Treatments. Many are 
from patients who took the Special Treatment years ago and are 
thereby able to judge as to its lasting curative properties. A large 
number of these patients were afflicted with diseases which had baffled 
the skill of many able physicians, and, in some instances, even noted 
specialists had said they were beyond the power of man to cure. We 
have many testimonials of marvelous cures from nearly every state 
and territory, but have space to publish only a few in this pamphlet. 
$500.00 Reward 
We offer a reward of $500 to any one who finds a single one of 
our testimonials not to be genuine. The Grand Dispensary is at all 
times open for investigation by visitors. 
In writing to the persons who have given a testimonial, enclose 
a stamped and addressed envelope for reply. Because you do not 
always receive a reply to your inquiry, do not conclude that the 
testimonial is not genuine. Many of our old patients receive so many 
inquiries from all parts of the country that they get tired of answering. 
All sick persons are requested to write us, describing their dis- 
eases, and we will take pleasure in sending them our Books regarding 
their ailments, and Examination Chart. We will also examine their 
cases and send them our opinion free of charge. 
If we regard their diseases as curable, or if we believe that we 
can greatly prolong their lives, we will give them an unusually liberal 
treatment FREE that we may demonstrate the superiority of our 
treatment at our expense.

Tapped Every Week. 
Bannister, Mich., Oct. 31, 1907. 
The Dr. Miles Grand Dispensary, 
Elkhart, Ind. 
Gentlemen:—I very gladly testify to the 
wonderful results of your treatment in 
my case. Before L learned of your treat- 
ment I had been a sufferer from dropsy 
for eight months. I filled up so rapidly 
with water that my condition became 
very serious, and in order to live at all 
it was necessary for me to be tapped 
every week. My liver and kidneys were 
very bad, and I also had heart and stom- 
ach trouble. I was certainly much sur- 
prised and delighted at the rapid action 
of your treatment. Almost from the first 
dose the bloating decreased, and I have 
not been tapped sine-. I had been treated 
by four physicians, but not one of them 
understood my case or helped me. After 
taking a six weeks’ course of your Spe- 
cial Treatment for Dropsy I was so well 
that I did not think further treatment 
necessary. I am very grateful and will 
recommend your treatment to anv one in 
need. R. BURFFORD. 
Aug. 27, 1908, he wrote: “I was cured 
of dropsy by Dr. Miles and believe he is 
all right and perfectly reliable.” 
An Unusually Complicated Case. 
Chase, Kans., Dec. 4, 1907. 
Dr. Franklin Miles, Elkhart, Ind. 
Dear Doctor:—It is with much pleasure 
that I testify to the great benefit I de- 
rived from a course of your treatment. 
After suffering .five years from a nervous 
breakdown, I saw your offer and decided 
to try your medicine. My condition was 
one of extreme nervousness, accompanied 
by constant dull he. dache, loss of mem- 
ory, sleeplessness, restlessness, melancho- 
ly, great weakness and trembling of the 
1 mbs; I also had some rheumatism with 
n any aches and pains. My appetite was 
poor, and I suffet-d much from indiges- 
tion, heart-burn and sour stomach. I 
would get up in the morning unrefreshed 
and so tired that I was unable to per- 
form my household duties. 
Since taking a course of your treatment 
five months ago, my health has so much 
improved that I can work without be- 
coming so tired, and my aches and pains 
have left me. I am very thankful to you 
for what you have done for me, and when 
in need of medicine I will send to you. 
I will always gladly recommend your 
treatment. Yours trulv, 
MRS. WILLIAM EASTER. 
Special Treatment a God-Send. 
Freeborn, Minn., Sept. 20, 1904. 
Dr. Franklin Miles, Elkhart, Ind. 
Dear Sir:—Having been restored to 
health from a very bad case of heart dis- 
ease by your great skill and wonderful 
medicines "I desire to report in brief the 
full details of my illness. 
I had returned from a physician after 
a personal examination and was almost 
home when my eye caught a circular. 
Picking it up I saw the advertisement of 
your Special Treatment for Heart Trouble. 
It was a God-send to me! I at once 
ordered a months’ treatment. I had not 
taken the medicine two weeks when I 
felt like a new man. I continued the 
treatment a reasonable length of time 
until a cure was effected. It was about 
twelve years ago that I took your treat- 
ment, and 1 have since considered myself 
cured of heart trouble. I would most 
heartily recommend all heart sufferers to 
take your Special Treatment and be cured 
of the dreadful affliction. Respectfully, 
R. E. GOWARD. 
Dropsy Thirty Years. 
Pickering, Mo., Nov. 1, 1906. 
Dear Doctor:—In reply to your kind 
letter will say that my health is just 
splendid, not a sign whatever of my 
dropsical symptoms since I took your 
medicine. For thirty years I had been a 
great sufferer from extreme shortness of 
breath, pain around the heart, smother- 
ing at night, and dropsy of the limbs, 
which for some time had been swollen 
up to the body. I also had very severe 
sick headaches. The dropsy. I was told, 
came from my heart and kidneys. I took 
treatment from several physicians with 
little or no benefit. One physician told 
my husband I could last only a short 
time—that there was positively no help 
for me. I began the use of your Grand 
Dronsy Cure and improved from the 
start. It has now been nearly one year 
2 since I stopped the use of the treatment 
and I feel that my dropsy is entirely 
cured- 
People who are familiar with my con- 
dition think that my case is a perfect 
marvel. I certainly feel that you have 
saved my life and cannot find words to 
express my gratitude for the improve- 
ment since taking your Special Treat- 
ment. I do not think that I could pos- 
sibly be alive today to write this letter 
had it not been for your life-saving med- 
icine for dropsy. May God bless and 
help you in your faithful endeavors to 
relieve suffering humanity. Respectfully, 
Mrs. A. J. NASH. 
Physicians Said Medicine Would Not 
Help Him. 
Jarves, N. Dak., June 30, 1908. 
The Grand Dispensary, Elkhart, Ind. 
Gentemen:—I freely testify to the great 
benefit I received from a five weeks’ 
course of your improved Special Treat- 
ment. I now feel as well as I ever did. 
About seven months ago my health be- 
gan to fail. I was exceedingly nervous, 
my stomach and bowels troubled me all 
the time, and my head ached constantly. 
I consulted a physician, who said medi- 
cine would not benefit me and advised a 
change of climate. I decided to try a 
course of your treatment, with the result 
that I am cured. I thank you for your 
interest and I confidently assure the sick 
that they will make no mistake in deal- 
ing witi. the Dr. Miles Grand Dispensary, 
for they are safe and reliable and treat 
their patients in the fairest manner pos- 
sible DENNIE J. DeLONG. 
A Complicated Case Cured. 
Bemidji, Minn., March 14, 1912. 
Dear Doctor:—Your letter of inquiry 
received and in reply will say that I am 
certainly cured as I have worked all win- 
ter and felt fine. I had been ailing for 
eight months with heart trouble, causing 
shortness of breath, weak pulse, palpita- 
tion, pain in chest, left side and arm, 
sensation of weight, pressure and dis- 
tress in chest, etc. I was also suffering 
from bladder and kidney trouble, rheu- 
matism at times and headaches. I sent 
for your Special Treatment and was so 
pleased with its effects that I continued 
to take the medicine for nine weeks. At 
the end of this time my symptoms had 
all disappeared and I was feeling well. 
Have remained in good health since and 
am glad to recommend your treatment. 
Yours very truly, G. W. FROST. 
Pronounced Incurable. 
Walker. Ia.. Oct. 2, 1908. 
The Grand Dispensary, Elkhart, Ind. 
Gentemen:—After suffering intense 
agony for a period of four years, and 
being pronounced incurable by three phy- 
sicians, I applied to Dr. Miles for relief. 
It seems that all my internal organs were 
affected. My kidneys did not perform 
their normal functions, and my heart was 
largely affected. I was experiencing much 
pain and distress in and around the heart 
with shortness of breath, skipping of 
beats, sinking and dying feelings, smoth- 
ering spells, and fullness and burning in 
the chest. There was also that feeling of 
fullness in the stomach, causing me terri- 
ble misery. It seemed that the Specially 
Prepared Medicines improved my condi- 
tion from the very start, for at the end 
of two months I was completely cured 
of my troubles. Several months have 
elapsed since my restoration to health. I 
have recently been examined by a physi- 
cian who tells me that there is no sign 
of my old trouble. I consider my cure 
complete, and Dr. Miles’ Special Personal 
Treatment certainly was a God-send to 
me. I would cheerfully recommend all 
sufferers to apply to Dr. Miles, for I feel 
assured that he would be able to relieve 
them of their sufferings. 
MRS. MARY MORSE. 
Heart Would Shake the Chest. 
National Military Home, 
Danville, 111., Sept. 14, 1911. 
Dr. Miles:—I had been out of health for 
some time, suffering from rheumatism 
and heart trouble, when I was led to take 
your Special Treatment. I had palpita- 
tion of the heart and sometimes it would 
beat so hard that it shook my chest. My 
left shoulder and arm pained me a great 
deal and I often had sinking and dying 
feelings. I improved rapidly on your 
medicine and was completely cured after 
taking the treatment two months. 
Respectfully, WM. LINDERMUTH. 
Heart Disease Twelve Years. 
Neola, Iowa, Feb. 10, 1908. 
Dear Doctor:—I write to let you know 
that the three months’ course of your 
Special Treatment taken in 1905 has en- 
tirely cured me. I am now feeling better 
than I have for ten years, and weigh 
eight pounds more than I have weighed 
for twenty years. When I began taking 
your treatment, I had been afflicted for 
twelve years with heart disease. During 
the earlier years of this period, I suffered 
only from heart weakness, with palpita- 
tion, skipping of beats, etc. Later this 
condition of my heart seemed to grow 
gradually worse, and I suffered consider- 
ably from shortness of breath, choking 
and smothering spells, hard -beating and 
pain in the heart and chest. I also had 
numbness and trembling of the extremi- 
ties and neuralgic pains in various parts 
of the body. I became quite nervous. 
My stomach was sympathetically affected 
with indigestion, sourness, bloating, and 
occasionally nausea and vomiting. I also 
had rheumatism and bronchial trouble. 
Your treatment was the first from 
which I had been able to obtain any re- 
lief. I am very grateful for my cure and 
am much pleased to make a statement 
regarding the same. U. McLEAN. 
Cured at Seventy-Two. 
Shelburne Falls, Mass., Nov. 4, 1907. 
The Grand Dispensary, Elkhart. Ind. 
Dear Doctor:—I take the liberty to 
3 write you once more, thinking you might 
like to hear how I am. Considering my 
age, wh.ch is seventy-two years, I am 
enjoying very good health. 
When I first wrote you I was troubled 
with a weak heart. It fluttered and 
skipped beats at times, and its action 
was nearly always irregular. My stomach 
also was in bad condition, there was con- 
siderable irritability of the bladder, I was 
very nervous, and my system was run 
down generally. I have taken ten weeks 
of your Personal Treatment at intervals 
as I needed it. Now my heart does not 
trouble me, my stomach is much im- 
proved, and I am able to rest better at 
night. With the aid of your treatment, 
which I appreciate very much, I have 
succeeded in regaining my health as well 
as one of advanced age could expect. 
Yours very truly, 
MRS. A. A. RICHMOND. 
Given Up by Several Doctors. 
Lamb, 111., Oct. 22, 1907. 
The Dr. Miles Grand Dispensary:— 
I freely and • cheerfully testify to the 
great benefit I received from a course of 
your Special Treatment for Kidney and 
Bladder troubles. I am now feeling as 
well as I ever aid. Two years ago I was 
taken with hard chills and hemorrhage 
from the kidneys which had continued a 
month or so, when I commenced having 
fever in the evening and chills in the 
night. The trouble was diagnosed by 
three specialists respectively as “Conges- 
tion of the Kidneys,” “Stone in the Blad- 
der,” and “Incipient Bright’s Disease.” I 
placed my case in your hands and at the 
end of seven weeks I considered myself 
cured. It has now been about eighteen 
months since the treatment was discon- 
tinued, and I feel as well as I ever did. 
I take pleasure in recommending your 
treatment whenever opportunity offers. 
L. M. SIMMONS. 
July 30th, 1908 Mr. Simmons writes: “I 
was cured of incipient Bright’s Disease 
after being given up by several other 
doctors. I believe Dr. Miles is honest 
and gives honest treatment.” 
Great Pain in the Heart. 
108 North Ashland Bvd., 
Chicago, 111., August 15, 1909. 
The Grand Dispensary:—Having just 
received your letter of inquiry, I hasten 
to reply. Your Special Treatment cer- 
tainly did me good. I am entirely cured. 
I had always been apparently healthy un- 
til I worked nights for years in railroad 
shops and in brass works, which did not 
agree with me. I used tobacco incessantly 
thinking it would counteract the poison 
inhaled. At length I noticed the pain in 
my heart. I was examined by a physi- 
cian, who said I had heart disease. He 
could hear the passage of the blood 
through the heart making a "swishing 
sound.” Besides the great pain .in my 
heart, chest and left arm, I had weak and 
hungry spells, shortness of breath and 
dyspepsia. At present I feel no pain or 
other symptoms mentioned above and am 
apparently well. I am confirmed in this 
conclusion by the fact that before begin- 
ning your treatment I made an applica- 
tion fo" life insurance and was rejected, 
the cause given being heart disease. I 
again made an application after taking 
your treatment and after a rigid exam- 
ination passed through all O. K. This 
may seem incredible, nevertheless it is 
true. Gentlemen, I can say, God speed 
you in your good work and may you 
benefit every suffering person as you 
have me. Yours thankfully, 
EDWARD HANNON. 
Doctor Said She Could Not Be Cured. 
Mrs. W. H. Luse, Monmouth, 111., had 
been troubled with sick and nervous 
headaches since she was fifteen years old. 
During the attacks she suffered from 
nausea, dizziness, intense pain and burn- 
ing In the top and back of her head. She 
had neuralgia pains in her heart and 
stomach, and the heart action was very 
weak. Her physicians said she was In- 
curable. In February, 1894, Mrs. Luse 
commenced our treatment and took it 
persistently for nine months. After an 
interval of thirteen years she writes as 
follows: 
Monmouth, 111., June 22, 1909. 
Dear Doctor:—I can truly say the treat- 
ment I took of you was very beneficial—■ 
in fact, I was cured and have enjoyed 
much better health than I ever did be- 
fore and have recommended your treat- 
ment to several friends. I feel very 
grateful for what your medicines did for 
me. I wrote to you as a last resort, for 
my doctor told me I could not be cured 
and that he could only relieve me. The 
same doctor was later very much puzzled 
over the health your treatment gave me. 
I hope you may be able Vo do for many 
what you have done for me. 
Very gratefully, MRS. W. H. LUSE. 
Greatly Surprised at Result 
Knightstown, Ind., May 28 1910. 
Dear Doctor Miles:—I am now getting 
along very nicely for one of my years. 
My stomach does not bother me any more 
and I work in the garden, take care of 
my chicks, and do all my housework. I 
cannot find words to express my thanks 
for what your medicine, through the 
blessing of God, has done for me and 
shall always feel grateful. When I be- 
gan your treatment, I was nearly ready 
to pass over to the other shore. I shall 
never forget how surprised I was at the 
end of one week’s treatment to see that 
I was getting better. I was happy—oh, 
so happy!—and my family were glad and 
happy too. If my testimony will be any 
encouragement to other suffering ones, 
please publish it, and whenever I find any 
one suffering as I did, I will urge them 
to send for your treatment. Yours truly, 
MRS. MARY A. BRYANT. 
Sciatic Rheumatism Cured. 
Thorsby, Ala., Dec. 18. 1911. 
The Grand Dispensary, Elkhart, Ind.— 
I am only too glad to inform those who 
4 are suffering from Sciatic Rheumatism 
that relief can be obtained by using Dr. 
Miles’ Special Treatment. Six years ago 
*ny back and left hip commenced to hurt 
me very much, and later the pain went 
down the muscles of my left thigh and 
leg into the side of my foot and affected 
the small toes. I suffered much pain all 
these years and had been treated by local 
physicians without much relief. Last 
May I applied to Dr. Miles for Special 
Rheumatic Treatment, and, after tak- 
ing a two months’ course of his medi- 
cines, I consider myself completely re- 
stored to health. I am able to work all 
the time and feel as well as at any time 
before I contracted the Sciatic Rheuma- 
tism. JAMES FRANKLIN. 
October 7, 1912, Mr. Franklin writes: 
‘Since taking your Treatment over two 
years ago, I have felt altogether like a 
new man and am enjoying good health at 
this time. Furthermore, will say that I am 
very grateful to you for your great med- 
icine and hope you may cure others as 
you have me.”

Two Physicians Failed. 
Adamson, Okla., Dec. 21, 1907. 
Dr. Franklin Miles, Elkhart, Ind. 
Dear Doctor:—It has been some time 
since I have written to you. I have been 
getting along very well since taking your 
treatment; in fact, my health has been 
fine. I consider your system of treatment 
the best in the world. My wife also took 
a co rse of treatment from you and we 
believe you have prolonged our lives a 
great many years. As you doubtless re- 
memoer. my cffise was a very complicated 
one. I had suffered for four years from 
general debility, rheumatism in the right 
hip shoulder joint and arm, and also had 
a catarrhal trouble, affecting the head, 
throat and bronchial tubes. But worse 
than all, my heart became very badly af- 
fected, and the trouble was progressing 
rapidly when I decided to apply for your 
treatment. I had shortness of breath, 
pain in the heart or chest, pressure and 
distress, and my heart sometimes beat 
so hard that it shook the chest. I had 
taken treatment from two other physi- 
cians without any apparent benefit. 
Although I took but three months’ 
treatment and it has been three years 
since I have taken any medicine, there 
has been no return of my trouble.

Would Have Been in Her Grave. 
Orlando, Okla., July 7, 1909. 
Dr. Franklin Miles, Elkhart, Ind. 
Dear Doctor:—In reply to your letter of 
recent date I am pleased to inform you 
that I am still in good health, the best 
for several years. If I could only have 
been treated by you when I was younger, 
now fortunate it would have been for 
me! .Vlv heart and nervous trouble began 
after the birth of my first child. I suf- 
fered from shortness of breath, pain in 
the heart, sinking and smothering spells, 
swelling of the limbs, pain and throbbing 
in the head and stomach. I began taking 
your Special Treatment in March, 1905. 
It proved to be the only medicine that 
had ever helped me. My improvement 
was gradual, but noticeable. My heart 
began to get better and I was able to 
sleep naturally. I continued taking your 
medicine until I found that I was cured. 
I belive I would have been in my grave 
but for you. I will always feel it a privi- 
lege to tell those who are sick of your 
skillful treatment of my case. 
Yours truly, 
MRS. MARY EDMONSON. 
Six Physicians Failed. 
Gainesville, Fla., Oct. 23, 1907. 
Dr. Franklin Miles, Elkhart, Ind. 
Dear Doctor:—I had been afflicted with 
rheumatism for twenty years. It was 
worse at night and I did not have a good 
night’s sleep for three years. I was 
treated by six physicians, but got no re- 
lief. I began your Special Treatment for 
rheumatism March 23, 1905, and con- 
tinued for three months. I can now lie 
down and sleep ten hours at a time. 
Your treatment did all that you claimed 
for it, and much more than I could have 
believed it would do, as my whole system 
was a total wreck. I shall always rec- 
ommend your treatment with pleasure. 
S. J. SIKES. 
Her Case a Wonder. 
Roland, S. Car., April 26, 1905. 
The Grand Dispensary, Elkhart, Ind. 
Gentlemen: My case is a wonder. I 
feel well, sleep well, eat almost anything, 
am never nervous, and work all day long. 
I do not feel like the same person and do 
not know how to fully express my grati- 
tude to you for restoring my health. I 
finu the little book, Golden Rules of 
Health,” a great help to me, and would 
not be without it. I hope my testimony 
will give to others the great happiness I 
am enjoying. Many thanks for your kind- 
ness and all you have done for me, and 
my prayers are that you may long be 
spared in your good work. 
MISS LIZZIE MOORE. 
Afflicted All Her Life. 
1717 Columbus Ave., 
Springfield, Ohio, August 25, 1910. 
Dear Doctor:—You are certainly de- 
serving of a testimonial from me for the 
benefit received from your Special Treat- 
ment. I am now enjoying very good 
health. Previous to hearing of Dr. Miles 
I had been afflicted with heart and stom- 
ach trouble all my life, and also had 
blind and dizzy spells, loss of memory, 
numbness, and severe pains in my eyes 
which so weakened them that I was un- 
able to read. The spells kept getting 
worse until I was compelled to quit work. 
I was unable to sit up most of the time, 
and no medicine seemed to benefit me. 
I treated with one physician ten months 
and felt worse than when I commenced. 
5 One day I happened to hear of the won- 
derful cures others had received from 
taking your medicines and decided to 
give them a trial. After taking the treat- 
ment four months 1 am entirely cured 
and can now do a day’s work as easily as 
any one. I have gained twelve pounds 
and all symptoms of the heart and stom- 
ach trouble have left me. If any one 
doubts the accuracy of this statement, 
and will write me personally, I will be 
only too glad to write all about my case. 
Very sincerely, 
IVAN MASSIE. 
Relieved of Terrible Suffering. 
Tyronville, Pa., Jan. 1, 1907. 
Dr. Franklin Miles, Elkhart, Ind. 
Dear Doctor:—I am cured of rheu- 
matism and do not need to take any 
more medicine. I can recommend your 
medicine to every one who is afflicted 
with rheumatism. After suffering for 
more than a year, it is wonderful how 
soon and how effectively your Special 
Treatment has cured me. I cannot ex- 
press my gratitude for relief from such 
terrible suffering. I am anxious that 
every one who is afflicted with rheuma- 
tism should hear about it. Gratefully, 
MRS. L. B. PRICE. 
Dropsy Has Not Returned. 
Sunbury, Pa., June 2, 1910. 
Dr. Miles:—I have not written you in a 
long time, as 1 was waiting to see if I 
should have any more signs of dropsy. I 
am happy to say that not a symptom of 
dropsy has returned and I seem to be 
entirely cured. My trouble began with a 
weak heart, aching and swelling of the 
limbs which finally extended to the ab- 
domen. 1 became very much bloated and 
frequently had severe cramps. The regu- 
lar physicians told me they could do noth- 
ing for me. My physician never gave me 
up, but he did not benefit me, although 
he treated me for a year. I certainly ap- 
preciate what you have done for me, and 
whenever I hear of a case similar to 
mine, I shall gladly recommend your 
treatment. Thanking you for past favors, 
I remain, Yours very truly, 
MRS. C. R. WYNN. 
Given Up as Hopeless. 
Greenfield, Ohio. Sept. 6, 1906. 
The Grand Dispensary, Elkhart, Ind. 
Gentlemen:—I am very grateful to you 
for the benefit derived from a three 
months’ course of your Special Treat- 
ment. At the time I commenced your 
treatment, in February, 1906, I had been 
very ill for over a year and was in a 
very serious condition. Physicians said 
my trouble was a general breakdown, 
following lagrippe. A urinary analysis 
showed the presence of albumen and 
there were other indications that the 
kidneys were becoming seriously affected. 
I lost flesh rapidly until I was a mere 
skeleton, my weight, which was 165 
pounds, being reduced to 90 pounds. The 
ablest physicians were employed, but I 
steadily grew worse and was told that I 
*muld not get well, Mv case was given up 
as hopeless. I commenced to get better 
at once under your treatment and my 
friends were astonished at the rapid im- 
provement in my condition. I regained- 
my strength and a great deal of my flesh. 
I eat hearty and am able to do my work. 
I most earnestly recommend Dr. Miles’ 
Special Treatment to the afflicted, feeling 
confident that they will not be disap- 
pointed. I remain yours very gratefully, 
MRS. SCOTT POWELL. 
Seven Physicians Failed. 
Hinton, W. Va., Nov: 13, 1906. 
Dear Doctor:—I am very glad to state 
that after suffering from epilepsy for sev- 
eral years, which seven physicians had 
failed to benefit in the least, I am now in 
the best of health, having been cured by 
a five weeks’ course of your Special 
Treatment. I honestly believe that my 
cure is permanent. I am now working 
every day, which is more than I have 
done for three vears. If your treatment 
will heln others as it has me, I want 
them to know what it has accomplished 
in my case. I thank you with all my 
heart for what you have done for me and 
I will always cheerfully recommend your 
treatment. CHARLES DEAYER. 
Not So Well for Eight Years. 
Wyocena. Wis., April 19, 1910. 
Dr, Franklin Miles:—I certainly feel 
very grateful to you for my improved 
health. I have not been so well for eight 
years as I am at the present time. I feel 
that your Special Treatment is all that 
you recommend it to be. The heart 
trouble with symptoms of shortness of 
breath, palpitation, difficult breathing, 
smothering spells, pains in the left side, 
etc., have all disappeared. My food di- 
gests well and in every respect I am 
greatly improved in health. I had occa- 
sionally taken treatment of two physi- 
cians, tut was never permanently bene- 
fited until I took your Special Treatment. 
Should I ever feel any symptoms of my 
old trouble again. I will certainly call 
upon you for another treatment. Yours 
respectfully, MRS OSCAR KELLOGG. 
Not an Ache Nor a Pain. 
Leonidas, Mich., July 21, 1910. 
Dr. Franklin Miles:—When I commenced 
taking your medicine last fall I had no 
faith in it, as I had tried so many other 
physicians. But I had been ill for sixteen 
years with liver and stomach trouble and 
thought I would try once more, and find 
I have a great deal to be grateful for. 
Before taking your treatment I used to 
have such bad spells of pain in my stom- 
ach and left side that it was necessary to 
use anaesthetics. I never got anything 
to ease the pain until I took your spe- 
cially prepared treatment. Now I feel so 
well that I think I shall not need any 
more medicine. How good it seems to be 
able to work once more and not have an 
ache nor a pain! For years I have not 
been able to ride out. Now it does not 
hurt me at all. I can hardly realize I am 
so well and cannot thank you enough for 
what you have done for me. Yours very 
truly, MRS. MARY OLNEY.' 
6 Would Have Been Dead and Forgotten. 
Dodge City, Kansas, Nov. 26, 1909. 
Dr. Franklin Miles:—I do not hesitate 
to say I would have been dead and for- 
gotten long ago had it not been for your 
medicine. My heart had bothered me for 
twenty years. It seemed to break down 
all at once and I could not sleep on my 
leit side, my limbs would go to sleep and 
I would i.ave to get up and walk around. 
My heart would beat so hard that it 
shook my body and I had pains all 
through my chest. So I began to think 
my time was near. I doctored with my 
home doctor, but got no relief, and I gave 
up all hopes of getting well. One day I 
was reading the Kansas City Journal and 
happened to notice your advertisement, 
so I thought I would give your medicine 
a trial and see what it would do. Now I 
can say that I am cured and feel like a 
new man. I can’t say too much in re- 
gard to your medicine. 
Yours respectfully, FRED M. TRENT. 
Saved Her Life. 
R. R. No. 3, Box No. 36. 
West Buxton, Maine, Feb. 19, 1901. 
Dear Doctor:—When I commenced tak- 
ing your treatment I had suffered for 
some years with lung complaint, smother- 
ing soells, pain in the side and chest, in- 
digestion, nervous prostration, poor cir- 
culation, and restlessness at night. From 
the first your medicine helped me won- 
derfully, and I cannot praise your Special 
Treatment too highly. This was four 
years ago and I have had no return of 
the symptoms. I always feel grateful to 
you and thank God for giving me so 
skillful a physician. 
MRS. MARY BRADEN. 
Later she wrote: “It seems that your 
medicine saved my life,” while six years 
after taking the treatment she added: 
"From personal knowledge I can say that 
any words of praise are tame to express 
the value of your Special Treatment.” 
Cured of Heart Disease and Asthma After 
Eight Different Physicians Failed 
to Give Relief. 
Jasper, Missouri, Dec. 24, 1911. 
Dr. Franklin Miles:—I can say that I 
believe I have been permanently cured by 
your Special Treatment. I am enjoying 
good health and think you should have 
all the praise for accomplishing so much. 
No other doctor ever seemed to under- 
stand my ease. After taking your med- 
icine a few weeks I found myself free 
from the symptoms of heart trouble and 
asthma which had troubled me for seven 
years. I had great shortness of breath, 
throboing in head and stomach, weak and 
hungry spells, distress in the chest, sink- 
ing and dying sensations, smothering 
spells and wheezing, as a result of 
asthma. I had consulted eight different 
doctors during the years of my suffering 
wiinout receiving any help, but am now 
well as a result of your treatment. I 
thank you and gladly give you this testi- 
monial. Yours very truly, 
MRS. WM. H. CRABTREE. 
Cured of Heart Disease at 87. 
Santa Barbara, Calif., July 20, 1912. 
Dear Sir:—I take great pleasure in tes- 
tifying to the wonderful results 1 re- 
ceived from your Special Treatment. I 
had been ailing about four years from 
heart disease complicated with rheuma- 
tism and bladder trouble. Had great 
shortness of breath, could not walk a 
block without great difficulty in breath- 
ing, had severe pains in my heart, left 
side and arm, with feeling of weakness, 
distress and oppression in chest. At the 
same time was afflicted with rheumaism, 
nervousness and bladder trouble, the lat- 
ter caused by my age, 87 years. Two reg- 
ular physicians pronounced my trouble a 
bad case of heart disease, which had 
come on gradually during four years. 
Their treatment did not help me. I took 
yours for seven weeks after which I 
have felt rejuvenated, which I did not 
expect at my age. My heart gives me no 
trouble whatever and the complications 
have disappeared. Very respectfully. 
JOHN S. TYLER. 
Gallons of Water Removed—Tapping Was 
All Doctors Could Do. 
Marlin. Texas, Oct. 10, 1911. 
Dr. Franklin Miles:—I think I am en- 
tirely well of the dropsy for which I 
took your Special Treatment three 
months. I have not taken any medicine 
since last June and not a symptom of 
dropsy has returned. My case was one of 
liver dropsy, which caused bloating of 
the abdomen and from which I was in 
constant misery. The last time I was 
tapped the doctor took two and one-half 
gallons of water from me. I had been 
sick for about six months, but tapping 
was all the doctors could do for me. 1 
have recommended your medicine to sev- 
eral people who are in need of treat- 
ment. Thanking you for your kind at- 
tention, Yours truly. 
DANIEL O. HUGHES. 
Rheumatism Twenty-Five Years—Eight 
Physicians Failed. 
Washington, C. H., Ohio, July 5, 1911. 
Dr. Miles:—Yours of 3rd inst., received. 
I am glad to say that my health is better 
now than in thirty years. It has been 
about five months since I took a short 
course of your Special Treatment and I 
cannot say anything too strong about 
what your special medicine has done for 
me. I have been gradually improving 
each day, and am ready to attest and 
verify all your statements as to what 
could be expected from your medicine. 
My trouble was nervous exhaustion and 
muscular rheumatism. Had been afflict- 
ed with the latter twenty-five years and 
treated by eight physicians without suc- 
cess. Very respectfully yours, 
G. W. BYBEE. 
October 4, 1912, Mr. Bybee writes: “I 
am glad to say to you I am in better 
health than I have enjoyed in twenty 
years.” 
7 What The Newspapers Say 
The Grand Dispensary Has a National Reputation 
The Grand Dispensary has been repeatedly visited by representa- 
tives of most of the well-known newspapers, religious periodicals and 
magazines, who, after careful investigation, have spoken in glowing 
terms of what they saw. We give below a few of their comments. 
“A trustworthy institution.”—Hawkeye, Burlington, Iowa. 
‘‘One of the most scientific and reliable Institutions in the country.”—• 
Up -to-Date, Indianapolis. 
“The Giand Dispensary has exceptional advantages, ability and ex- 
perience.”—Quincy, (III.) Farmers' Call. 
“Dr. Miles has achieved a world-wide reputation in the success of his 
treatment, which he has given the best years of his life to develop.”— 
Chicago Live Stock Journal. 
‘‘The Grand Dispensary is a reliable factor in the successful treatment 
of many diseases by mail.”—Des Moines News. 
“Dr. Miles’ method of treating patients by mail is as efficient as when 
patients are under personal observation. He has cured many where others 
failed.”—Cincinnati Weekly Inquirer. 
“His fame as a successful physician rests upon a foundation made se- 
cure by a long record of positive cures.”—American Illustrated Methodist 
Magazine, St. Louis, Mo. 
“The perfection of medical science, as illustrated by the methods of 
this institution, is amazing.”—State Register, Des Moines, Iowa. 
“Dr. Miles’ practice has been conducted on eminently scientific prin- 
ciples and the statistics regarding remedies, methods, diseases, etc., which 
the Doctor and assistants have kept, are said to be unsurpassed in the 
United States.”—Chicago Journal. 
“To Dr. Miles belongs the honor of discovering a successful method of 
treating patients by mail. His record of cures is not excelled by any other 
half dozen physicians in the United States.”—Chicago Inter-Ocean. 
“The Grand Dispensary has patients in all parts of the United States and 
is one of the most reliable institutions in the country.”—Milwaukee Sentinel. 
“We believe that Were this new system, as perfected by Dr. Miles, 
generally adopted, it would enable physicians to treat their patients much 
more successfully and would certainly increase their knowledge of the na- 
ture and peculiarities of their patients.”—Chicago Daily Record. 
“No institution is doing more to systematize and develop the co-operat- 
ive study of medicine and treatment of disease than The Grand Dispensary. 
Dr. Miles’ system, which has been so successful, is not complicated, but is 
surprisingly effective, and we recommend it to such of our readers as desire 
careful, scientific treatment. They seientifically treat patients by mail, 
remedies being prescribed after each case has been exhaustively examined.” 
—The Lookout, Cincinnati. 
“A notable achievement has been made by the Grand Dispensary by 
which advanced medical science is successfully applied for the benefit of 
the sick. Dr. Franklin Miles, the Physician-in-Chief. is a trained investi- 
gator. "The results of hundreds of cases, passing along under his notice, 
have enabled him to apply his knowledge by mail to the cure of many peo- 
ple he has never seen. In a b,-ief notice, such as this, it is impossible to 
give details, but the growth of The Grand Dispensary during more than 
thirty years of good work has evolved a plan which is reliable, scientific, 
reasonable and economical for the successful treatment of many diseases by 
mail. This combination of knowledge surpasses the individual work of a 
specialist or general practitioner, and serves to make charges reasonable.”— 
Lutheran Observer, Philadelphia, Pa. 
“When an able and experienced physician offers to give away $10,000 
worth of a New Personal Treatment for diseases of the heart, nerves, 
stomach, or dropsy, it is conclusive evidence that he has great faith in it. 
And when hundreds of prominent men and women freely testify to his 
unusual skill and the superiority of his improved system of treatment, his 
liberality is certainly worthy of serious consideration.”—Christian Standard, 
Cincinnati.
