One Hundred Deaths . Day from Lung
Troubles.

Ono Hundred Deaths = Day from Lung
Troubles.
New YONG, April 10.-The sunshine of the
past few days is producing more cheerful
aspect Of things. Previous to this week
physicians on all sides were predicting the
return Of that dreaded influenza la grippe.
DIR. John Seagle, the recorder OF vital statis-
Tics, reported 100 deaths per day from lung
trouble alone.
The eyes OF all the medical profession were
turned upon the eases of the twelve test pa
tients who are undergoing Dr. Amick's chem
conditions imposed by the New York Re
eord<r, in Offering a reward of $1,000 for
cure for the disease, which carries of almost
half Of humanity and OF which so many cele-
brated persons have died this winter,
But the Recorder is loud in its self-con-
graduation over the fact that not one of the
twelve have succumbed to or have even been
retarded in their recovery by the horrible
weather; It declares that the days OF miracles
upon earth have returned and It cannot
longer doubt that Its generous offer las borne
marvellous fruit and an absolute cure for
consumption has been found through Its ef
forts.
This is creating a great deal Of talk; DR.
Amick ia Cincinnati physician, and was In
Nited by the Recorder to come TO New YORK
TO select patients on whom to make these test
treatments, but such confidence did he show
lU his remedies that, TO the surprise of every
body, he returned TO Cincinnati at once, lcav-
lag the patients 10 take the medicines and
cure themselves, allowing them, of course, to
consult him by letter.
Congratulations over the results are pour
ing in from all parts Of the country from
physicians and consumpiives alike, some even
going so far as TO say that the government
should take up the matter.
The nnety-hf.h bulletin concerning the
twelve New York test patients selected by
the Recorder's physicians and including
eonsumptives In all stages Of the disease Is ss
follows: Bulletin % (gencraD-I note in
every one of the test patients that their cough
has either been lessened or has quite disap-
peared since beginning the treatment; that
expcctoration is easier and much decreased;
that they breathe with much greater ease;
that all have good appetites and all sleep
well. Every such symptom OF improvement
indicates ultimate recovery. And all this In
spite OF the severest weather known In years,
when those Interested In the investigation
might naturally expect TO see the test patients
pulled down. 1t Is not to be wondered at
that all express themselves not only encour-
aged but extremely happy In having obtained
a new lease of life W. II. Lemrow, NJ. d.

In the face of these tests and the unlm-
pcachablc testimony from thousands Of re-
putable physicians all over the land, no man
can deny that DIR. Amlck has discovered
something which accomplshcs most wonder
full results.
The Recorder still continues TO state that
every facility will be afforded physicians and
sufferers everywhere TO salty themselves

found and that this test be made free OF
any expense 10 them; every physician ex-
pressing his desire 10 test the treatment and
