ANEMIC CHILDREN.
And Newly Discovered Way to
Cure Them.

A prompt and effective cure for anemia
has just been discovered by Dr. Albert
Muggia, a progressive German physician.
He takes the yolk OF a fresh laid hens
egg. mixes it with a little salt, and filters
the mixture. Then he injects it with a
hypOdermic syringe His experiments
have been conducted upon very weak. ane-
mic children that found difficulty in as
Stimulating food. After a short course of
treatment his patients gained in weight
perceptibly, and improved in health from
day to day. The principle upon which this
scientist works is that the body assimilates
whatever is injected under the skin with
far greater ease and promptness than If it
be taken into the stomach. It is notable
that in most cases of extreme anemia the
digestive apparatus refuses to work prop
erly and the iron or food swallowed is not
assimilated. When introduced in the new
way, directly into the blood, it cannot fail
to build up the system promptly. The i'm
portance of this method is in proportion
to the widespread prevalence of anemia
among children and women of our day who
do not get sufficient exercise or fresh air
to keep the frame in healthful condition.
The idea of feeding beneath the skin. hy-
podermically, is so simple and effective
that the only wonder is that 1t has not
been thought OF before

A WORD OF CAUTION.

The old saying that man, who is
naked can't give away his shirt, . is only
another way OF saying that you can't
give What You haven't got. The man
cant give free medical advice, or any
other Kind OF medical advice who hasn't
got medical education and a certificate
to the tact, in the form of diploma.
And IN this particular a woman has no
more privilege than a man. She can't
give medical advice without medical edu-
cation and medical knowledge.
The offer of free medical advice made
by DR.. Pierce, chief consulting physician
to the lnvallds' Hotel and Surgical In
stitute, Buffalo, N. Y. has been initiated
by so many, who without any medical
quallhcatlons claim to give medical
advice ? that word of caution is neces-
sary.
Don't write for medical advice to any
one, man or woman, who is not ply
siclan. II they are physicians they will
take the title of physicians or doctors SO
that you may recognize them. If they
don't claim that title it is because they
dare not, for fear Of the law.
DO not forget that there is just as
much difference i'll doctors as in artists.
Every llttle town has its artist who draws
and paints. But these artists gener-
ally paint copies Of the works of great
artists like Millet There was only one
Millet.
There is only one Inva1ids' Hotel and
Surgical Institute, such as DR.. Pierce
presides over Thousands of women
come or write to Dr. Pierce who have
found no help at the hands of doctors of
lesser skill and narrower experience.
Any sick or ailing woman, suffering
from the distressing forms of disease
peculiar to women, is invited to con-
suit DR.. Pierce, by letter, free. Such con-
situations are absolutely private. Each
letter is treated as a sacred confidence,
and each answer is sent in a plain en-
velope, bearing no printing upon it.
In this way offensive questions and
repulsive examinations may be avoided.
