BAFFLED!
One OF the Most UnaccountabIe and
Dangerous OF Recent Deceits
Discovered and Exposed.

There is some mysterious trouble that
Is attacking nearly every one in the land
with more or less violence. It seems to
steal into the body like thief in the night.
Doctors cannot diagnose it. Scientists are
puzzled by its symptoms. 1t is, indeed. a

PROSTATE nearly all the animals in the
land, this subtle trouble seems to menace
mankind. Many of the victims have pains
about the chest and sides, and sometimes
in the back. They feel dull and sleepy; the
mouth has bad taste, especially in the
morning. A strange, sticky slime collects
about the teeth. The appetite is poor.
There is feeling like a heavy load upon
the stomach; sometimes faint, all-gone
sensation is felt at the pit of the stomach,
which food does not satisfy. The eyes
grow sunken, the hands and feet feel
clammy at one time and burn intensely at
others. After while a cough sets in, at
first dry, but after a few months it is at
tended with greyish-colored expectora-
tion. The afflicted one feels tired all the
while, and sleep does net seem to afford
any rest. He becomes nervous, irritable,
and gloomy, and has evil forebodings.
There is giddiness, peculiar whirling
sensation in the head when rising up sud-
denly. The bowels become costive, and
then. again, outfiux intensely; the skin
is dry and hot at times; the blood grows
thick and stagnant; the whites of the eyes
become tinged with yellow; the urine is
scanty and high colored, depositing sed-
iment after standing. There is frequently
| a splitting up of the food sometimes with
sour taste, and sometimes with sweet
ish taste; this is often attended with pal
pitation of the heart. The vision becomes
impaired, with spots before the eyes; there
Is a feeling of prostration and great weak
ness. Most of these symptoms are In turn
present. 1t is thought that nearly one
third of our population have this disorder
in some of it's varied forms, while medical
men have almost wholly mistaken its ma
ture. Some have treated it for one CON-
| plant: some for another, but nearly all
have failed to reach the seat of the disor
der. Indeed, many physicians are afflicted
with it themselves. The experience of DR..

Doctors and scientists often exhaust
/ their skill and the patient dies. They try
everything that has been used by, or is
known to the profession, and then fail.
Even if they save the life it is often after
great and prolonged agony. Where all this
can be avoided by precaution and care,
how insane thing it is to endure such
preparation within reach, to neglect its
use is simply inexcusable.
