WHY DOCTORS DO NOT LIKE TO TAKE THEIR
OWN MEDICINE.
DON'T BLAME THEM.

Prominent physicians of all ages have called Matera
Medica murder. They admit that their medicines have
destroyed lives than war, pestilence and famine
combined.
Prof Gillian, of the New York College of Physicians
and Surgeons, says: "a mild mercurial and
mildly cutting mans throat synonymous terms"
John Mason Goods, NJ D., Frs says; "The effect
of medicines the human system are in the highest
degree uncertain, except indeed that they have des
troyed lives than war, pestilence and famine
bined."
Sir John Forbes, NJ. D., +. r. s., says "Somc
patients get well with the aid of medicine more without
it, and still more in spite of it,"
James Johnson, NJ. d., +. r. s., says 81 declare as
my conscientious conviction, founded long expert.
and reflection that if there not a single physi
clan, surgeon man-midwiie, chemist apothecary, drug
gist drug the face Of the earth there would be
less sickness and less mortality than prevail
Alonzo Clark Professor in the New York College of
Physicians and Surgeons says In their zeal to do good
physicians have done much harm; they have hurried to
the grave many who would have recovered if left to
nature. All curative agents poisons, and as
consequence every dose dminishes the patients vital
ity"
Martin Payne, Professor in the New York Univef-
sy Medical College, says: Drug medicines do but cure
one disease by producing another"
The celebrated Oliver Wendell Holmes, NJ. d.. says
Except opium, wine, ether and chloroiorm firmly be-
eve that if the whole Materia Medica, as now used,
could be sunk to the bottom of the sea- it would be all
the better for mankind and all the worse for the fishes"
The eminent Lebert, speaking of typhus fever said:
"Drugs, SUCH unnecessary, give them chiefly to
satisfy the patients and their friends"
Sir Ashley Cooper, NJ. d., and the physician to the
Queen of England, says; "The science of medicine is
founded on conjecture and improved by murder"
DR.. Billings 81 visited the different schools of
medicine, and the students of each hinted if they did
not assert that the other sect killed their patients"
So much for what the doctors think of their own
medicine.

RUDYARD KlPLING'S LIFE SAVED BE OXYGEN
After All Other Medical Resources Were Exhausted.
Quite recently the whole English-speaking world

ters of tho pen, Rudyard Kipling, anxiously watching
his magnificent struggle for life against that terrible dis
ease Pneumonia, The newspapers published the min
utes details of the progress of the disease which
tnued its onward march toward what appeared the
inevitable triumph of death. The telegraph and cable
lines from every part Of the nhabitable globe bur-
dened with messages of sympathy Both England and
America were filed with a of impending calamity.
Even the Emperor of Germany wed with people Of less
prominence to wire expression of his profound sorrow
the catastrophe which about to overtake the

which could have occurred to give worldwide repua-
ton to Oxygen effective remedy for the Of

Perfected "OXYGENOR KING"
A Few Pointed Facts About OxygenOr Cleaned from
the Writings OF the Great Edmund Shaftesbury.

Oxygen is all activity its mission in the world is
to change it tears down only to rebuild.
Oxygen is the only builder in the human body; it
is mans greatest friend it destroys the bad part of the
living tissue and rebuilds the good.
The blood in the body carries carbon for the pur-
pose of exciting the oxygen The air cells of the lungs
supply oxygen, and the supply of oxygen in
creased it acts in the body exactly as pair of bellows
blowing air upon the fire. The greater the supply OF
oxygen the more intensely do we exist.
There is always carbon in the body than oxy-
gen. and this is the fruitful for disease the carbon
ferments and humors simply because not enough
oxygen present to burn the carbon, and TIL BURN.
ING is LIFE. We burn when we exercise and this
burning is liie-here is absolutely other way of
isting. We cannot live without burning and WE
CANNOT BURN WITHOUT OXYGEN.
Tho application is easy.
The Perfected OxygenOr King

abundance Of natures own oxygen.
There can be failure you use it, it will give
you new life.
