Who needs a regular doctor when you can make an appointment to see Dr. Squirrel?

When the world's on "your nerves"
And your head's in a whirl
Just go to the woods
And consult "Dr. Squirrel."

His treatment's effective
His charges are light
You'll soon be convinced
That the world is all right.

Handwritten on the back of this postcard "Bloomsburg, Nov. 23, Wednesday morning. This card I thought would suit you, or probably a rabbit instead. I am all O.K., as Eugene says. I am going to send Bruce a Thanksgiving carol today."

Addressed to: Mr. Verus Ritter, R.D. #1, Opp, Penna.

Postmarked: Bloomsburg, Pa., Nov. 23, 1910, 12:30 p.m.
