ANOTHER CONSUMPTION CURE.

Discovered by DIR. Shirley. of Detroit-Its
Nature and Effect.
CHICAGO, Dec. 25.-The consumption cure
invented BY DIR. Shirley. OF Detroit, is at
tracting much attention among eastern
physicians. DR.. ingalls,. of this city, has
inoculated several patients with it the past
two days. In an interview he said no inn
mediate effects are noticed in this treat
ment, but DR.. Shirley has dismissed several
of his Detroit patients apparently cured
after four months. The remedy consists
of hypodermic injection of chloride of
gold and soda, or solution of csdine.
These drugs have long been used for con-
sumption but never in this way. The cure
is blood cure and of course takes some
weeks to have any effect. Tho remedy is
injected much as Koch lymph is, but its ma
ture and effect are very different. Il is an
Alternative and does not, like lymph, attack
and destroy diseased tissues. It's effect is
to change the nutrition of tissue and not
destroy it. 1t is, therefore, much milder
than the lymph, and its use is attended
with no languor.

was short of funds and was unable to
make loan. In this financial crisis
he went to the royal treasury and
