An old Davenport medical advert touts Dr Walsh as the world’s greatest specialist in chronic nervous and private diseases.

Wayside Dentistry and Odd Medical Advertisements

An odd clipping describes a teamster’s dramatic tooth extraction with a hatchet and nail as recounted by attorney W. W. McNair, followed by a sensational claim about Electric Bitters curing gall stones, then short pitches for Mystic Cure for Rheumatism and Rocky Mountain Tea, and finally Dr. Wood’s Norway Pine Syrup and Cascarets promoting health tonics and laxatives amid dated newspaper ad style.

County Temple Transfer and Party Anxiety Mentioned

Swine and property transfers appear in a list noting Thomas W. Catterall to Harry Brockman and parcels on certain lots. A man named AJ Snell, living in Sanmer, WM, NY, feared stomach pains would spoil a party and touted a quack remedy that allegedly eased his distress. The piece reads like a garbled advert and notice of land dealings mixed with a testimonial.
