of Health.
DIR. OIL. treats all diseases to
which the human body is liable, but
pays especial attention to those old
Chronic cases that other Ply sicians
give up as hopeless, and to those de-
fects and blemishes that mar The
beauty of SO many-CRoss-E YHs.

quire the most delicate and difficult
surgical operations and the most
skillful scientific medical treatment
for their cure.
Very few physicians understand
the laws of health-know how to
preserve their own health or that Of
their families. How, then, shall
they manage to preserve that Of
their patients I? In fact they make
no pretensions of doing it. : They
only deal with drugs, and pay won-
derfully little attention to Hygiene,
and the result is what might be an
ticipated. Drugs alone cure but
very few diseases, and the number
Of old chronic ones that is, so to say,
left over, is a disgrace to the healing
art. See how many cases there arc
for instance of Sick Headache in
every community. Medicine alone
will not cure it, and hence it is so
rarely cured, but often, as it is said,
outgrown. Now the fact is there is
no disease more easily cured when
we put the patient on proper diet
and hygienic rules. The same may
be said of great variety of dis
eases, as DYSPEPSIA, WArERBRAsH,
HEARTBURN, GAsrRAlGIA, BILIOUS
NESS in its many phases, CArARRH,
BRONCHITIS, CONSUMPTION, WEAK
BACK and LoINs, FEMALE DISEASES,
and many others, all easily cured
by attention to appropriate hygienie
rules but that are commonly al
lowed to continue for years or for
life to the infinite suffering of the
unhappy patients, and all because
physicians commonly study only the
action of drugs according to one
system of medicine or another, End
pay literally no attention tc the
great healing powers of nature.
DIR. OIL. treats of the above NAL
aides many thousand yearly, he has
scarcely had failure to contend with
or to note in five years. Of this he
is prepared to show q circumstan-
sisl proof, in the vast number of let
tsrs in his possession that speak a
the cure Of such diseases. How
many others can show such record !
Medicines wisely administered are
of course a help, (but at the best
they are only help to nature in
performing the cure. As such DR..
OIL. uses them, bat for twenty
years now he has been teaching pub
licly and privately, in both the Old
World and the New, the Laws Of
Health, and he is every day becom-
ing more and more convinced that
they are the great instrumentalities
in the cure of all diseases, and still
more that where they are properly
observed there will be little or NO
disease to cure. c He fills, for every
patient he treats, a paper of direct.
ions as to the observance of these
laws, which if carefully needed viii

out all his directions for these ant
for taking the medicines trusts
nothing to memory. In the healthy
memory is treacherous enough, bu
how much more so in the sick ? Tn
physician who trusts to it, either ha
little faith in his skill and cares lit
tie as to the accuracy with whicl
his directions are needed, or else h
will be often annoyed and disap
pointed at the way in which hi
medicines are taken and his sugges
tons observed. DIR. OIL. take

toms, former treatment, length {
time continued, its effects, ETC., an
of every medicine he prescribes, $
that he can see what the progress {
the case is under the influence of til
remedies. On the paper of direc'
ions he gives his Post office address
SO that the patient can at any TIM
by correspondence, continue or r.
new the treatment as long as

sary is to mention the book and pae

He claims the credit of having orig

medicine successfully without it {

practice and the same old routine ,
