PUBLISHER'S ANNOUNCEMENT-Owing to the advance in the
price of paper, and the increased cost of all the labor that goes to make
up a magazine, the Overland Monthly finds itself forced to announce
an increase in price. Beginning with the September number the Mag-
azine will be sold at fifteen cents a copy or one dollar and a half a year.
The magazine will undergo a change in policy, its field will be broad-
ened and the contents improved in all directions. Whatever profit is
made by the increase in price will be immediately returned to the
reader in a better magazine. The Overland Monthly was one of the
first of all the Magazines to drop from twenty-five cents to ten cents.
This change was dictated by a fall in the price of paper and cost of
labor. With the rise in the cost of labor and material the Overland
Monthly claims the privilege of meeting the conditions by a correspond-
ing rise in the price of the magazine. OVERLAND MONTHLY CO.

Every indication of Varicocele vanishes and in its stead comes the pleasure of perfect health Many ailments are reflex, originating from other diseases. For instance, innumerable blood and nervous diseases result from poisonous taints in the system. Varicocele and Hydrocele, if neglected will undermine physical strength, depress the mental faculties, derange the nervous system, and ultimately produce complicated re sults. In treating diseases of men I always cure the effect as well as the cause. I desire that every person afflicted with these or allied diseases write me so I can explain my method of cure, which is safe and permanent. My consultation will cost you nothing, and my charges for a perfect cure will be reasonable and not more than you will be willing to pay for the bene fits conferred.
