The marvellous success OF the remedy In

1t very clear that his remedy and treatme ont
has nothing in common with such alleged dis

which no has within few months placed be-
fore the public. was not the result OF a dciber-
ate plan to discover cure for Consumption.

For threofyears DR.. Copeland AMI his as
sociates worked with this treatment. in PROV
ing and perfecting 1t. and applying it to thou
sands OF patients. watching and noting care
fully its results. For three years they work ell
and waited. without mentioning word to tho
public In their printed statements of what this
treatment would do. Not until about two
months ago did they announce 1t to the pee ple.
and oven then 1t was not given out as q cure
for Consumption in its last stages. but it was
given out as a positive cure for Consumption in
the stage Of bronchial Cdtdrrh. and as means
OF relief in every case OF Bronchial or lung
trouble. This is in brief the history OF the dis
covery.
The success OF this remedy will be attested
in these columns by printed statements from
well-known men and women. who testify as to
its results. SO far as it has been tried this
may be said. that there has not been presented a
single case of bronchial trouble. or Consumption
helped immediately. and that IN n,anv cases ,rhe,e
cure ras considered impossible. ii has effected
,cromp'ete and permanent cure.
The only charge That has been brought
against the remedy Is that contained in let
