FORTY BILLION GERMS.
A Wonderful Theory that Concerns the
Welfare, Happiness, and Life of Every

"A Wonderful Theory that Concerns the
Welfare, Happiness, and Life Of Every
one.
In his quiet and cosy library at the close Of
busy day sat gentleman and his wife, he
absorbed In new book and she in the news
paper. Quickly CHANGING toward her hus-
band, she asked at a certain point i'm the
article.
'''John, what Is the germ theory"
''The germ theory-well-yes; just look in
the encyclopedia under Germ that will ex-
plain IL SO much better than / can"
Accordingly his wife opened the book Mt
the word named and read: Germ Theory OF
Disease-A theory advanced 10y the ablest and
best investigators and scientists of the times.
IL supposes the surface of the earth, the air
and the water TO be inhabited to a greater or
less extent with peculiar growth of the low
est form of fungi-commonly termed bac-
terra, whose power of reproduction, under
favorable conditions, is so fAcat that single
germ will increase TO 15,000,000 I'm twenty
four hours time, and unchecked in Its in
crease would grow To mass OF 500 tons in
three days time, if space aud food he fur
nishcd. There is no condition under which IL
can be said 10 be absent, unless IL be from fire
or air filtered through cotton-batting in nu-
merous layers. A single drop of water con-
tanning germ, put into water boiled, fit
tered and thus freed from bacteria, will grow
murky in day or two from the development
of new germs. When II is considered that IL
requires about 10000, 000, 900 TO weigh one
grain, some remote idea can be had
of the capacity of germ rcproduc-
ton. Prof. John Tyndall, in late
work, deliberately treats of the influence
of germs in the propagation OF disease and
charges upon this cause the inception and de-
velopment of very many of the ailments most
IN N m pnctpnr. eminent
French savant, has carried his original and
beautiful experiments so far. and from them
dcduccd such practical results as very greatly
to diminish the number of cases OF anthrax
among sheep and chicken cholera among
fowls-proving his theory that these are es-
sentially and actually germ diseases. These
germs are carried into the system through
the lungs the stomach, and possibly the skin,
but through the lungs chiefly. Once i'll the
system, they begin to develop, poisoning the
blood, invading the nerve centers. disturbing
the functional activity of the great organs of
the body and inducing general impairment
of the vital processes. They are the cause of
fevers, rheumatism, Bright's disease of the
kidneys, pneumonia, blood-poisoning, liver
disease, diphthCria and many other ailments.
Lately Prof. Koch, n famous German physi-
clan, has proved that consumption Of the
lungs is due TO this cause.-The presence of
peculiar germ.
When the circulation is bounding, the
nerves elastic and the system all aglow with
life and energy, the germs seem 10 develop
poorly, If at all. But with weakened nerves,
poor digestion or mal-assimilation of food or
n lowering of vitality from any cause, Il
change ensues, and i'm this impoverished and
weakened fluid the germ finds genial home
and develops until symptoms of disease are
distinctly manifested. This is seen i'm the every
day experiences of all. The healthy man re-
sstg the influences around him and does not
take cold, while those whose systems have
become weak from any cause readily contract
colds. This is on the same principle as the
germ theory. The germs attack any weak
ened spot in the body, and fixing themselves
upon il, begin their propagation. IL is plain
therefore that it is only by fortifying the
weak portions of the body that the germs of
disease can be resisted and driven from the
system. But this has proved almost an i'm
possibility heretofore and il has been the study
of physicians for years how best TO accom-
plish il. within the past few years,
however, preparation has been at
tracing great attention, not only
throughout the entire land, but among the
medical profession and scientists generally,
which is based upon this theory, and it may
safely be said, no remedy has ever been
found which can SO successfully place the
system in condition TO resist the germs OF
disease as Warmers Safe Cure. This article
is unquestonably the best and most efficient
that has ever been discovered for this pur-
pose, and
John say, John. does the encyclopedia
advertise Warmers Safe CureY''
IL should not wonder, dear, it's n
grand remedy. and that pamphlet we re-
ceived the other day stated that DR.. Gum, of
the United States Medical College Endorsed it,.
At all events the wonderful cures il is ac-
complishinG cntitle it TO he honorably noted
among the great discoveries of the present
century"
However the facts above stated may bc, the
truth remains, that the germ theory of dis
ease is the correct one and that the great
remedy mentioned is the only one which has
ever been found that can put the system in IA
condition to Kill these germs before they OBJ
tain II hold upon the body and undermine the
life.
