who called upon him, saying that it would be worth

it would digest his food.
"A million dollars for healthy stomach John D.
Rockefeller,
Il accept the offer and will forfeit 5000 if
to deliver the cure."-Dr. Mclaughlin.
This looked to me like material for interesting
story, which leo to Dr. McLaughlins offices for
particular details.
THE first greeting from the doctor convinced me
that had met a of convictions and strong ones.
The doctor was enthusiastic sOver what he terms

Drugs will not do that. They never did and they
never WILL and every doctor earth knows it.
What will do it then? Electricity!
IL would pay $4,000 this minute John D.

What my method? The restoration of vitality
nothing To appreciate what going
you win have to understand that it is
orally conceded by medical men that the motive
ergy of human organs-the force which keeps the
heart puIsating. the stomach digesng and the brain
scheming-is Electricity.
a year Professor Loeb recognized as high
authority stated that he had discovered, after ten
years of studious that electricity is the basis
o human vitality
Just glance at this mine, written in 1885,
and read what I say the introduction
Il took the opened book from the doctors hand and
read: Il anticipate still greater results from my
efforts toward demonstrating the truth of lifelong
claim that Electricity is the basis of all animal vital
ity without could live
THAT Indicates that my discovery years
ahead of Professor Loeb continued the doctor, but
1 credit 1 did not discover it all
1t belief twenty years as it is the belief
of every thinking today and 1 have simply
veloped the theory until it is a proven fact.
Il quote Professor Loeb simply to clinch my right
say that if Mr.. Roskefelers stomach is unable to
digest his food it is it has not sufficient
tally. and we have already shown that vitality
means Electricity"
another part his book DR.. Mclaughlin gives
more comprehensive solution Of the heat problem
than that advanced by Professor Loeb Dr.. McLaug1-
lin says:
The that we eat is treated as fuel by the
stomach just is the coal in furnace. The chem
zeal action which is produced upon the food by the
acids and juices of the stomach burns the and
causes carbonic heat This heat is electricity and it
is forced into the and vital organs their
life"
Further Dr. Mclaughlin says: THE electrical
heat generated by the consumption Of our food should
keep healthy every vital organ of the body. Debility
of the vital arises when the is greater
than the repair-when the stomach is not able to
generate sufficient electrical heat to supply the de-
1nands Of nature.
This excessive waste. is due to overtaxation of
the vital forces by hard work mentally grief worry
extra physical exertion, severe fevers, ty-
phoid malaria, which away the vitality and
leave the system debitated."
Now here is where DR.. Mclaughlin passes beyond
the period covered by Professor Loeb and shows how
this electricity which basis lfe may be
replaced in the body when lost by the produc
ing debility.
He says: When the stomach is not able to gen.
crate sufficient of this energy to supply the demands
of the vital organs the natural result is lowering OF
nerve organic and muscular powers general debi-
ity. Then artificial must be used to assist

This is the remedy for Mr.. Rockefeller. To
prove my faith in it I would be willing to put up

How about Mr.. Rockefener's offer of a million
dollars, DOCTOR
THAT is a secondary matter. want it, Of course,
but not for my use don't need it, and a mil

What would you do with the money doctor?'
IF 1 should the prize 1 would gladly consent
to having it go to public charity, which would

And the $4,000 which you offer?"
