not bur wish to trifle with lbs lives or health of the
afflicted, but frankly to lay before them the opinions

selves. We sincerely pledge ourselves to make no
wild assertions or false statements of its efficacy, not
will we hold out any hope to suffering humanity
which facts will not warrant.
Many proefs archers given, and we solicit an In
