Consumption cannot he cured-that when once it
becomes seated in the human system, nothing can
eradicate or stay its progress but shat will continue
the work of destruction until its victim sinks into
the grave
However true this may be in theory, am disposed
to doubt it in fact; indeed, my experience and
desire to benefit Others compels to pronounce the
assertion untrue. You will probably recollect, sir,
that in the beginning OF 1910 to you, stating
that had the consumption and that it fast hur-
rying to the grave. l did not then, nor do now
doubt, every symptom was too painfully visible My
Physicians considered me incurable, but the advice
which asked OF you was given, and am happy to
that by using few bottles of your incompatible
medicine the EXPECTORANT, | was restored,
and never in my life have enjoyed better or more
health than since that time. If you
should see me now, you would not imagine by my
appearance that had ever been sick, much less that
