FORTY L GERMS.
Wonderful Theory That Concerns
The Welfare, Happiness and Life
of Everyone.

In his quiet and cosy library at the
&close of q busy day sat a gentleman and
his wife, he absorbed in a new book and
he in the newspaper. Quickly CLAN cling
howard her husband, she asked, at a GER
q ain point in the article. ..
John, what is the germ theory"
'The germ theory-well-yes; just
ook in the encyclopedia under Germ
Mhat will explain it so mucl better than
d cam
Accordingly his wife opened the book
bit the word named and read: Germ
Theory of Disease theory advanced
NV the ablest ard best inves ~tigators and
j scientists of the times. Il supposes the
j urface Of the earth, the air and water

lent with a peculiar growth Of the low
est form of fungi-commonly termed
bacteria, whose power OF reproduction,
81 nder favorable conditions, is SO great
That q single germ will increase to fl
feen million in t~weRty-four hours time,

1hree lays time, if space snd food be
furnished. There is no conditi IN under
Which it can be said to be absent, unless
III be from fire or air filtered through
lotion batting in numerous layers. A
ingle drop OF water containing a germ,
but into water boiled, filtered and thus
eed from bacteria, will grow murky ia
" day or two from the development OF
8ew germs. When it is considered that
requires about forty billion to weigh
ne grain, some remote idea can be had
f the capacity Of germ reproduction.
Professor John Tyndall, in a late work,
II deliberately treats of the influence of
serms in the propagation of disease and
4 harges upon this cause, the inception
bnd development of very many of the
ailments injurious to man. Professor
}Pasteur, an eminent French savant, has
carried his original and beautiful exper-
Riments so far, and from them deduced
such practical results as very greatly to
diminish the number ofcases of anthrax
among sheep and chicken cholera among
Hfowls,-IToving his theory that these are
essentially and actually germ diseases.
fThese germs are carried into the system
Through the lungs, the stomach and
i ,ossibly the skin, but through the lungs
chiefly. Once in the system, they begin
10 develop, poisoning the blood, inva-
ing the nerve centeIs, distributing the
ii functional activity cfthe great organs of
&he body and inducing a general impair
bent Of the vital processes. They are
he u o fevers, rheumatism, Brights
disease ofthe kidneys. pneumonia, blood
&%oisoning. liver disease, diphtheria and
&any other ailments. Lately Professor
&och, a famous German physician, has
Foved that consumption of the lungs is
ne TO this cause.-The presence Of a Pc
liar germ.
When the circulation is bounding, the
Nerves elastic and the system all aglow
9TH life and energy, the germs seem to
3eyelop poorly if at all. But with weak
med nerves, poor digestion or malas-
initiation of food or a lowering of vitali-
from any cause, a change ensues, and
this impoverished and weakened flu
the germ finds a genial home and de-
81 elops until symptoms Of disease are dis
s. nctly manifested. This is seen in the
very.day experience of all. The healthy
ban resists the influences around him
nd does nottake cold, while those whose
s. yStems have become weak from any
ause readily contract colds. This is on
he same principle as the germ theory.
The germs attack any weakened spot in
nc body, and fixing themselves upon it
Il egin their propagation. 1t is plain,
herefore, that it is only by certifying
be weaker portions OF the body thatthe
erms OF disease can be resisted and
riven from the system. But this
as proved almost an impossi-
ility heretofore, and it has
zen the study of physicians for years
low best to accomplish it. Within the
ast few years, however, a preparation
as been attracting great attention, not
ply throughout the entire land, but
tnong the medical profession and scien-
It's generally, which is based upon this
heory, and it may be safely said, no
emedy has ever been found which can
successfully place the system a con-
ton to resist the germs of disease as
arner's Safe Cure. This article is UNI
hestionably the best and most efficient
at eve has been discovered for this
hrpose, and
John, say Johnl does the e~ncyclope-
o advertise Warmers Safe Cure?"
II should not wonder, dear, it's o
and remedy, and that phamplet we
kceived the other day stated that DIR.
Funn, OF the United States Medical Col
&c endorsed it. At all events the won
brful cares it is accomplishing entities

However the facts above stated may
the truth remains, that the germ the

at the great remedy mentioned is the
lly n which has ever been found that

ese.. germs before they obtain a hold
ION the body, and undermine the life.
