STATISTICS or LIFE AND DEATH.
FIGURES DO NOT LIE.

FIGURES DO NOT LIE.
We have faith in statistics. They give
the death-blow to all false droctrine and en-
piricism in science, and blow sky-high the
liue spun theories of impractical men. Med
ical statistics are of special importance They
teach us to estimate at their just valne the
curative poicus Of drugs, which are the ster-
cotypes Of the profession" And what is their
value Figures, which do not lie, show what
in all dangerous complaints the Irregular
many as it sares. But. then, the doctors tell
us that those who die are iucurable. II this
b. SO how is 1t that so many victims Of the
most viruent internal aud external di-orders,
whom the profession had given mp. have re-
covered through persevering nseof Hollo-
ways Pills and Holloway's Ointment? There
+ can be no doubt about the fact, we opine, and
we want some body to account for it. To
our plain mind. il appears that if chronic
dyspepsia cannot he cured by the doctors,
and is cured with tncrring certainty by
Hclloway's pills, that the latter remedy is
worth the whole medicinal stock Of tine faculty
al means OF Relieving that complaint. So
again. if "giyel up case Of scrcfula or
crysipelns becomes rapidly conyalescent un-
der the action of The Ointment, we cans
not escape the the, conclusion that it is the
true specific for external disorders, and that
the "regnlar pharmacopeia" contains nothing
that will compare with it as meas Of snbdu-
ing that class Of maladies. 1910
This ia good logic we believe. Hany
cavil at it we will admit their demurrers
when they can show us better basis Tor
argument than facts. State Gazette.
