DOES EXPERIENCE Conxr ,

1t does, in every line of business, and
especially in compounding medicines.
This is illustrated in the great superiority
of Hoods Sarsaparilla over other prepar-
ations, as shown by the remarkable
cures it has accomplished.
The head of the firm of c. |. Hood &
Co. is thoroughly competent and ex-
perienced pharmacist, having devoted
his whole life to the study and &C tual
preparation of medicines, He is also a
member of the Massachusetts, and Amer
lean Pharmaceutical Association, and
continues actively devoted to supervis-
ing the preparation of and managing the
business connected with, Hoods Sarsa,
parilla.
Hence the superiority and peculiar
merit of Hoods Sarsaparilla is built up.
on the most substantial foundation. In
its preparation there is represented all
the knowledge which modern research in
medical science has developed, combined
with long experience, brain-work and
experiment. 1t is only necessary to give
this medicine a fair trial to realize its
great curative value.

precipitated by it, though not, indeed, il
pure condition, but still combined witt
the other eXtractive matter. Ii is like
wise insOluble in alcohol. The colorinl
matter may also be removed, rendering
1t possible 10 obtain from the extract q
colorless, dry substance containing the
effective principle in a much more con.
centrated form than the original glycer.
inc solutions. For application in prac.
tlce this publication of the glyCerine ex
tract offers no advantage, because the
substances so eliminated are unessential
for the human organism. The process
of publication would make the cost of
the remedy unnecessarily high.
Regarding the constitution of the more
effective substances, only surmises may
for the present be expressed. ItappearS
to me to be derivitive from albuminous
bodies having a close affinity to them.
1t does not belong to the group of So
called tOx albumens, because it bears
high temperatures and in the dialyser
goes easily and quickly through the
membrane. The proportion of the sub
stance in the extract, to all appearance,
is very small. 1t is estimated at frac-
tons of one per cent, which, if correct,
we should have to do with a matter
whose effect upon organisms attacked
with tuberculosis goes far beyond what
is known to us as the strongest drugs.
Regarding the manner in which the
specific action of the remedy on tubercu-
losous tissue is to be represented, various
hypothesis may naturally be put for
ward. Without wishing to affirm that
my view affords the best explanation.
| represent the process myself in the fol.
lowing manner; The tubercle bacilli,
produced when growing in living tissues
the same as in artificial CIVILIZATIONS, con-
tain certain substances which variously
and notably unfavorably influence living
elements in their vicinity. Among these
is a substance which in certain degree
of concentration kills or alters living
protoplasm that it passes into condi
ton that Weigert describes as coagula-
tion necrosis. In tissues thus become
necrotic the bacillus finds such unfavora.
