ate the personal enquiries which
have been made at our Office as to
the validy of the article, but they
have been so numerous that further
investigation of the subject was
deemed an editorial necessity.
With this end in view represen-

HeniOn at his residence, when the
following interview occurred:
"That article Of yours doctor, has
created quite whirlwind. Are the
statements about the terrible condi.
ton you were in, and the way you
were rescued such as you can sus'

additional ones. Few people ever

too few physicians do either"

years, and it is high time il ceased.
We doctors have been clipping off
the twigs when we should strike at

diseases even more than II cough
the coming of consunIp-
ton. We do not treat the cough,
but try to help the lungs. We
not waste our time trying to
relieve the headache, stomach, pains
about the body or other symptoms,
but go directly to the kidneys, the
source of most of these ailments"
This, then, is what you meant
when you said more than one-half

"PrecIsely. Thousands of social
