PURE MALT wHIsKEy
The Only Cure for onsumption.
HIGH MEDICAL .,rr,,a.,rv


In the United States Of America there is prob
ably no disease which is OF such universal inter-
est as consumption. The reason for this special
interest rs the TACT that the numberless causes
which lead TO its development tend TO leave
few households where there has not been at
least one death from IL. The public rs well as
the medical profession, have long ago decided
that medicinal agents having the character of a
food, are the only things that have any yalue i'm
the treatment Of this disease For many wears
it was supposed that beef tea was valuable as a
food; Ill now entirely discarded by physicians,
having no value. Cod-liver OIL from it's indi-
gestible quality, has also been abandoned, the
only result from it being an occasional case
where an unhealthy increase of fat was OBJ
tanned from it. The difficulty with all con-
sumptfves comes largely from the fact that the
stomach of the consumptive is very weak
To overcome this difficulty there is nothing
like Pure Malt Whiskey. There is not an ar
ticle to-day that enters so largely into medI-
cal practice for the treatment of the sick and
debilitated as alcohol in the form OF whiskey,
and there Is not not an intelligent physician in
the country but who prescribes it, or a hos
pital but what requires it on hand constantly
IN its pure state it is acknowledged to be the
beS. stimulant and the only cure for such dis
eases as consumption, hemorrhages, malaria
and dyspepsia, and ii will no doubt cause aston
| ishment when we inform you, backed up
by statistics, that nearly one-SiXth of all
whiskeys sold in this country to-day is dis
pensed through the medium of druggists and
