Professor Rudolph Virchow wss seriously IL
several months ago. An admirer Of his tbs

occasion 10 present him with some bottles q

certain that be had received much beneat from

to his benefactor. acknowledging the matle'

ing as il did from the most distinguished teach
er Of psthologic science in Europe, was pub
lished and widely read. The North German
Medical Association, like similar bodies IN
America, has It's cranks on ethics. They en-
deayored 20 call the professor TO account for

between ethics and man. aud manhood was

AT about the same time the editor OF this
Journal wrote letter 70 gentleman IN West
ern New York regarding the merits Of a remedy
known Warmers Safe Cure. The circgm-
stances in the case were as follows: We bad ire
quently been asked by patients II we knew any
thing about this remedy. and were obliged 10

inquiries about the remedy. aud were surprised

results obtained.
After several months fair trial we did not
hesitate 70 indorse the remedy, believing a. we

ton In this particular. We recommend rem
edy that has benefited thousands OF persons;
we have seen its good effects on our own pa

we are not afraid to say TO the public and the
profession Just what we know OF Il.
Medical journals OF all schools Of medicine
are filed with advertisements and editorial
pufTs OF proprietary medicines. many OF which
are worthless The editors know nothing OF
their composition or preparation but have an
eve to the money they get for their advertise

things. Ho~. therefore, a certificate based on
experiences such as ours, and without compen-
sation should have greater turpitude, Is
problem beyond our capacity. Why one should

who care more tor the rotten corpse OF the old
code than for common fairness and common
sense.
Those who are eager 20 find fault will do so.

The above able article from the pen OF DR..
+. A. Gum, editor OF the Nedteqi Tribune,
strongly corroborates the statements already
made by the doctor in the public prints regard
ing the unusual merits OF the greatest modern
medicine. This preparation, after twelve years
Of unqualified success, has finally received the
commendation and Endorsement Of the leading
members OF the medical profession, both in this
country and in Europe. DR.. Gum, in his re-
Gently published interview, gave his unan-
swerable reasons for indorsing this great rem
edy, and it goes without saying that the most
distinguished teacher OF pathology in the world
to-day would be the last to recommend a pro-
prietary article without having the utmost faith
in its curative power.
