CADjINOT BE GAOLED FOR THAT. It was small comfort to the man in prison to be told by the visiting lawyer: "But you cannot be gaoled for that." ,-The poor man was gaoled, and knew it. Lawyers . are not the only ones who make funny remarks like that; doctors say just as extraordinary things. For instance, Dr X., on meetine: Mr B. -(one of his old patients), said: "Well, are you ready for the operation yet?" And then, without waiting for a reply, added: " You'll have to go through with it, old man. You cannot bo cured otherwise." It may be asked wherein was the doctor's remark funny? Well, the point of the joke lies in the fact that the doctor's one-time patient, who could not be cured without an operation, was cured—;absolutely cured, —and there had been no carv- ! ing and oufcting.! Mr A. W. Martin, Sole Controller of?the Dr J. A. Sherman'method of curing rupture; Mr A. W. Martin, who has handled during the last 13 or 14 years more rupture cases than anyone else in Australasia; Mr A- W. Martin, who can show hundreds of testimonials to the efficacy of his treatment; and the same Mr A. W. Martin, who, before a_ judge of the. Supreme- Court in Australia, proved by numerous witnesses (doctors amomjr them) that by the Dr J. A. Sherman method of treating rupture he had cured where doctors had failed. It was this Mr A W. Martin who had cured -the particular case nr question, and who now ' invites rapture patients to avail themselves of his expert services at their earliest possible opportunity.
