Story Of the
Eiker-Hoff Cure.

But a short time ago the entire scien-
tific world, especially that portion Of it
devoted to medicine, was startled by the
results reached by physician of Vienna,
Doctor Adolf Hoff, a man who had been
trained in the best universities of Europe.
and who had the ripe experience that
comes Of large practice and of associa-
ton with one of the largest and best
equipped hospitals in the world. For
years he had made a study Of the respir-
atory organs of man, and particularly had
sought to fathom the mysteries Of con-
sumption that he might be able to afford
relief to suffering humanity.
The New York Journal heard of the
wonderful cures effected by Professor
Hoff and resolved to prove the matter for
itself.
That paper sent a consumptive abroad
at it's own expense to test this discovery
and to prove to the world that consump-
ton is durable. The patient was selected
from one hundred other cases at New
Works famous hospital, the Vanderbilt
Clinic. The presence of tubercule baciil
was fully established by eminent bacteri-
ologists. Placed under treatment by
Professor Hoff, the world renowned lung
specialist of Vienna, six guinea pigs were
: inoculated with this patients sputum
All of them developed tuberculosis and
died.
After three months treatment the Jour-
nal patient returned home completely
cured. . a-
Upon his return the New. York Life In
surance Company issued policy on his
life. Later he married and at this time
the New York Journal, in an extended
account of the ceremony, certified to his
cure 49,
Full details Of the cure, together with
the prescription, were published in the
New York Journal, and a history of the
case was embodied in paper read before
the Tuberculosis Congress and the
Medico-Legal Society of New York by DR.
Carleton Simon, the eminent lung special
ist. Among the other distinguished ply

A more extraordinary feature Of tn
Hoff Cure remains to be told. 1t is, tina
in this marvellous discovery Professo
Hoff builded more wisely than he the
knew. 1t has been found that his cure

In carrying out the humane work il
augurated by Professor Hoff, the Elk
Drug company would invite attention
the extreme reasonableness Of price, b
one dollar ($1.00l per month, of the Eike
Hof Cure. In a large number of cases
one-month treatment effects a compile
cure. Never before was a positive Gu

charge, which places it within the rea
