Dr. Sinning offered to cure cancers, tumors, piles, deformities, etc. by scientific principles, medicine, and surgery. The pamphlet mentions that Dr. Sinning had practiced medicine in Pittsburgh and Cincinnati, before coming to Titusville "four years ago." [An obituary in the Titusville Herald for his widow Sarah Sinning, who died in 1928, states that the couple came to Titusville in 1890, helping to date this pamphlet]. According to Atwater, Vol. III (supplement), p.580, Dr. Sinning was an 1885 graduate of the American Eclectic Medical College in Cincinnati.
