GENERAL GRANT.

GENERAL GRANT.
L. the Old Hero Dying Because Of Medical
intolerance. 'T o. 70
The American Homopathist has arti-
Gle on the treatment of General Grant by
the Allopaths, in which it SAYS:
/ General Washington was murdered
by his medical attendants; but at least
they were heroically-to heroically en-
deavoringto extinguish the disease. Their
brutality was of the active sort, and in
4 purpose commendable, though disastrous
in result. General Garfield was maltreat-
ed for months under an error of diagnosis,
. and at last escaped beyond the reach OF
his eminent torturers. Here, also, there
was much medical heroism and activity
displayed, albeit misdirected. Other il
lustrious patients have suffered from
eminence in the profession; but General
Grant seems reserved as shining ex-
ample of cold blooded expectancy. To
him the little group of eminence have
nothing to offer but q diagnosis. For
him they propose no relief but in the
grave. Ignoring the only source of
therapeutic salvation, they gather round
his bedside to observe his unaided
struggle. The fiat has gone forth that
nothing can be done; and nothing will
be permitted to be done. Those who
question such decision are quacks and
cranks; but who ought not to be proud
such q designation from such source?
Scholarly, refined, cultured. earnest gen.
tlemen, as they are of what avail
are all these good qualities in
the presence of such thera-
peutic bankruptcy? On the contrary,
| while so-called scientific medicine is to
the fore, well may the daily papers an
nounce in startling headlines, "A bad
day for General Grant-Seven doctors in
consultation"
Yes the hero of Appomattox is dying!
He who knew no fear in war, knows
no fear in suffering. His quiet fortitude
wins universal admiration.
President Lincoln, in visiting a hospit-
al during the late war, noticed a poor
Confederate boy, MORALLY wounded.
With his native tenderness he put his
arms around his neck in sympathy. The
sight melted the hospital to tears.
The heart of the American people in
like manner bleeds for Grant, the silent
sufferer. 1t would have him get well,
by any effective means. .,....-.
His physicians say he can not recover.
They fill him with anodynes but despite
their favorable bulletins he is daily
growing worse.
A specialist who has won reputation
in the treatment of cancer visits his bed
side. The opposition he encounters
from the attending physicians brings
painfully to mind the story of the dog in
the manger. -s
And General Grant perhaps, must die
because of this intolerance! Is it posi-
bic that there is no hope of cure outside
of the medical profession? a
Preposterous!
For years medical men insisted that
certain fevers were incurable, but c|inc0-
ma proved the contrary. For centuries
they have protested that certain venal
disorders were incurable, and yet spec
ial preparation has cured and
permanently cured the very worst cases.
Why may it not be possible in like
manner to cure case of cancer? B. F.
Larrabee, of Boston, was doomed to
death by many eminent Boston physi-
clans. J. B. Henion, NJ. D.. of Roches-
ter, N. Y, was given up by the best doc
tors of all schools. Elder J. S. Prescott,
of Cleveland, Ohio, was gravely inform
ed by them that he could not live, and
yet these men and thousands like them
have been cured and cured permanently,
of serious kidney disorders, by a remedy
not officially known to the code.
What has been done may be done
again.
General Arson S.ager died of Bright's
disease in Chicago last week. Joe"
Goss, the Boston pugilist, died of it.
Hundreds of thousands of people perish
of it every year, while in their doctors
hands. The cause of death may be
called blood poisoning, paralysis, heart
disease, commissions, apoplexy, pneu-
monia, or some other common ailment,
but the real difficulty is in the kidneys
Physicians know it, but they conceal the
fact from their patients, realizing their
inability to cure by any authorized"
means. The remedy that cured LARA
bee and Henion and Prescott ii. e., War
ner's safe cure) is a special, independent
discovery. Its record entities it to recog-
milton, and it gets it from intelligent
people. Its manufacturers have an un-
sullied reputation and are entitled to as
great consideration as any school of
physicians.
Prot. X. A. Gum, M. D., Dean of the
United States Medical College of New
York City, rises above professional pref
udice and on it's personally proved mer-
its alone gives it several pages of the
warmest commentator in his published
works-the only instance on record of
high professional endorsement of such a
preparation.
The unprejudiced people do not want
General Grant to die. If there is in all
nature or anywhere in the world q rem
edy or man able to cure his cancer, give
them chance. sa.
Will they do it?
No.
z WhyS
Is it not too often the case that many
excellent physicians who are greatly de-
voted to the code, would prefer that their
patients should die rather than that they
should recover health by the use of any
remedy not recognized under their code.
