These assistants are the most expert
it is possible to secure, lakf- Dr. Baird,
they are thorough diagimM imans, for
this one point Dr Baird insists upon
In fact, as he has pointed mH Hine and
again in his interesting health talks, he
is a crank on diagnosis. His assistants,
100, arc experts in chemical and labora
tory work and with the microscope
’l'here arc many who think a doctor
can tell'whai is wrong by feeling the
pulse, looking a’ the tongue and look

But. al the same time, be i i;tT,SS
IN<; To KNOW the Humble so as tn
be able to eliminate the I’Ai'SH, thor
ough examinations are necessary.
Ami to make Hmrough examinations,
ii is necessary In ha ve‘complete equip
ment such as l.»r l.aird has installed
in his new suite of ofti< < s \ specialist
in the*'-.' <iays must he an expert fiiag
nosiician and lo be ibis he must be a
mis rs seopist and a bacteriologist.
All this is m « essar\ to do good work,
and good wuk Dr. Baird has always
insisted upon. Il was lie who declared
several times -4 hat what the profession
needs today is not new sure-cures and
specifics, bin a more careful ami intel
ligent use of , the remedies already
known *to be of use in certain diseases
ami more care and attention-to the <le
tails of each case. Ry following
this poliCx . Dr Baird has been success
ful. In fact, ho has made a grealt i suc
cess as a specialist than any other in
the* South
The value of such a well ifiuipped
suite of tiffieps has been shown many
times recently in Dr Ibiirds cxicn
sive practice Dozens or patients have
consulted him who have thought them
selves suffering from Gout, Rheuma
tism. Kidney Trouble and the like,
when thorough examinations have
shown the trouble to he something else.
When they were scientifically treated
for the RIuAIj t’At’SE, and this has
been removed, their pains have van
ished. H was simply in knowing how to
lind iho CAl'Si' and then knowing hovr
1<» remove Hip cause.
other physicians whn had treated
them had treated them for the wrong
trouble or had been confused by symp
toms. The removal of symptoms alone
instead of removing the CAI’SE of flip
symptoms will not bring permanent re
lief And permanent relief is what a’l
sufferers want.
As every one who has boon reading
Di. Baird's interesting and instructive
health talks knows, he has been prac
ticing ami studying along original lines
for more than a third of a century.
I hat is why he knows (’hronie Dis
•;< <os. Diseases of Men, Nervous Dis
orders and Diseases of Women. A life
time of study and experience has made
him compolcnt and his remarkable snc-
' s indicates that he has produced re
su Us.
Recently ho has had considerable to
say about Neo-Salvarsan. the groat
Blood Poison treatment which super
seded ••HOf;,-' and will be glad to talk
