1t cures by absorption rather than drug

peradventure, the cheapest the pleasantest,
most convenient, the surest and most sat
isfactory curative, permanent and thorough
system regulator in the world; and is ap-
plicable to the infant, youth and adult of
both sexes Experience has led to an
honest belief that there is no disease that
can be kept in subjection, or that can be
modified, by the use of medicine but what
can be acted upon in a far more satisfac-
tory manner by the Holman Remedies

Baths, known as absorption salt, used as
auxiiiaries 1t is also believed that there
is NO disease that medicine will cure, but
what can be cured more promptly and eff
fectually by this treatment. Certain it is
that times without number, diseases, uni
versally acknowledged to be beyond the
reach of medicine, have melted away under
the action alone of these remedies. And
the work was done so quickly, with SO little
inconvenience to the patient, that in many
cases the pain was gone almost ere he or
she was aware. More than quarter Of
million witnesses bear testimony to these
statements. These are no idle words or
