The poor victim, almost frightened to death at the prospect of
exposure, usually compromises and pays all the money he can raise,
taking the three months' "treatment" which he is assured has been
specially prepared for his case.
It is not an uncommon thing for Dr. S. to get several thousand dollars
out of one patient. Men have been known to mortgage their farms to
get out of the clutches of these cormorants. They never let go until
the last dollar has been extracted from the poor patient. After his
experience with Dr. S. he wants no more. He thinks that they are all
alike and carefully avoids them in the future.
Dr. S. himself is not in Chicago. He is said to live in Philadelphia.
He operates offices in this city and several other places. Three men
comprise the office staff--one man who "takes" the case, another a
physician, usually a dummy engaged at a salary of fifteen to twenty
dollars a week, and a druggist.
The main guy of every medical quack office is the "case taker." He is
always a "confidence man" skilled in the business. He plays upon the
fears and credulity of his victims. He pictures the most dreadful
fate awaiting the unfortunate patient. If a case of private disease,
he knows that the patient will rot on his feet and become a charnel
house of infection.
If a "Lost Manhood" case, he pictures the horrors of impotency, a
trusting girl deceived, a divorce, together with the scandals that
precede and follow.

B---- MEDICAL INSTITUTE.
Chicago, Ill.
The above advertisement appears right along in the Chicago dailies. If
Dr. S---- is the "Prince of swindlers" the B---- Medical Institute is
a good second.
It is owned and run by a Bohemian, who changed his name from an
almost unpronounceable one to that of Hansen. He employs cheap
doctors--mostly dope fiends--men who could not get employment
elsewhere. His pay is about fifteen dollars per week. This man also
runs a "dental" Institute where equally cheap dentists are employed.
Both institutes rob the unsuspecting.
Hansen was sued by a former patient and nearly four hundred dollars
recovered, quite recently. The man was absolutely free from any
disease, but was frightened into paying that amount to get rid of an
imaginary one.
He is a common, cheap, medical swindler.
These are Positive Facts.
