Marveis of the Microscope.
A local scientist OF some little repute
recently made some experiments with
the Sweetland remedies, especially the
medicine thai has accomplished such
wonderful results in cases OF cancer and
kindred blood diseases. The effort was
to discover what effect il would have
upon microscopic forms of animal and
vegetable life. For the first expert
ment a bit of yeast or sponge" just
before it was moulded out for baking,
was placed On the plate of the micro
scope and softened by a drop of warm
water. 1t was in a luXuriant stage OF
vegetation and the conditions were Just
right for the full and rapid development
of the yeast plant. 1t is u very beau
tiful experiment, well worth trying. The
microscope, magnifying l25 diameters,
magnifies motion as we'll form, and the
growth of vegetation in yeast, almost
rapid enough to be seen with the naked
eye, develops astonishing activity under
the microscope. The little fibers and
tendrils shoot out in every direction,
branch and rebranch, often so rapidly
the eye cal scarcely follow them, until
within a few moments a little forest, as
beautiful and delicate as q fairy realm,
of interlacing boughs, f%rills, tendrils
and delicate lacework grows up beneath
your eye. When the little forest was ut
its most luXuriant stage OF vegetation
the eSpcrimenter touched the mass with
adrop of the Sweetland medicine. A blast
from the Internal regions could not have
wrought greater havoc. Instantly the
tibers shrunk back and curled up and
the beautiful forest, which a moment
before was %quivering with eXuberant
and ex%travagant life, faded away into a
dull, gray mass of absolutely dead mat
ter.
The only available low form OF animal
life OF fungus to be easily obtained was
furnished by the common house fly. On
almost every fly, toward the end OF the
summer. are bright little red specks.
clustering around the roots of his wings
and on his back where he cannot reach
them. They are parasites whose object
in life seems to be to make The exist
ence of the fly unpleasant and to eventu-
ally kill it. In a mass they can be read
lily seen by the naked eye, but the indi-
viduals can only be detected by the
sharpest eyesight. One of these para
sites was placed under the glass. The
, spectacle afforded is also worth the eX-
pertinent. Magniiied 100 times the
parasite becomes u dreadful looking
monster, blood-red in color and trans
lucent. He has no means of locomotion,
but is provided with minute suckers,
| like q cuttle-fish which enable him to
hold on and suck the blood from his
prey. In form the monster bears an as
tonlshing resemblance to a cancer, as it
appears fully developed and eating away
the life of a human being. Its shape,
color and general character are so
nearly like the rose OF spider canoe
that at first thought one would
declare that the relation between
them could not be any less than positive
and direct. Medical science may yet
discover that there is something more
thar a similarity of appearance be-
tween them, and that this almost invis-
ible mite, that is frequently dropping
into our food and drink. is the real and
original germ of cancer. When the
microscopic had examined the monster
until the sight OF him produced a SILVER
he put a drop of the Sweetland cancer
fluid upon him. Instantly something
happened. For the smallest fraction of
a second there was painful activity, q
violent shlvering of the red, transpar-
ent gelatinous mass, then it commenced
TO draw up and shrink away. Its rich
color faded to an opaque brown, and in
less than a second the monster, reduced
to less than half his former size, was
withered and dead.
A fluid that has such an effect upon
vegetable and animal fungi and bac-
terial life, and is yet so harmless that a
quart of it can be drank without danger
to the patient, is certainly n potent and
marvellous agency for combating disease.
