with pneumonia but it did
not bother me a bit."

Another young man says:

"It is now nearly six months since I left the Institute and in that
time I have not stammered a word. What do you think about that? It
surely is fine. But you know that. I was in Chicago last week and
visited friends and saw a doctor friend of mine who did not know that I
had been away, so he just stood there and looked at me, and said, 'You
are talking fine. How did you learn that?'

"I told him and then talked to him for four hours and he said it was
the best thing that had ever happened to me." Another letter, this time
from Honolulu and from a man who attended the Institute a number of
years ago, says:

"Just to let you know that I am still alive and enjoying life as I
never have before. I have forgotten that I ever stammered. Sincere
thanks to you."

This young man is now an engineer in the employ of the United Shipping
Board.

These letters give the answer better than I can--better than any
scientist can because they tell the real truth taken from the
experience of those who have tried and know--

First--That stammering can be cured by the Bogue Unit Method!

Second--That the cure is a permanent cure!

CHAPTER V

A PRICELESS GIFT--AN EVERLASTING INVESTMENT

There is no gift that can take the place of perfect speech. It is
beyond price--and the person who talks after stammering would give all
his possessions to keep from going back again to stammering.

But Freedom-of-Speech is more than a priceless gift--it is a wonderful
investment. Should you ask: "Does it pay to be cured of stammering?"
the answer could be nothing but "Yes"--and there is evidence aplenty to
prove it.

One young man writes:

"I have never enjoyed life as I have since I left the Institute, both
in a business and social way. I am to get a 25% increase in my salary
the first of the month, which is at least partially due to my wonderful
perfection of speech."

Does it pay--? Does a 25 per cent. increase in salary pay? Here is the
case of a young woman who was about to lose her position because of her
imperfection in speech--yet when she returned home after being cured at
the Institute, she wrote:

"I was very much surprised when I went down to the office yesterday to
find that I was going to get my place back again. This evening,
Mr.--told me that I was to get a 33 1/3% raise at the end of next week,
so my stay with you has already begun to pay d
