Nowadays it takes considerable to
astonish the world. So many wonder
full things have been discovered in
the past century that it has seemed
almost impossible that anything
more could be found to add to the
comfort or benefit of man.
Probably no branch of science has
made such wonderful strides as have
been made in the practice of 1nedi-
cine, Diseases that number of
4 years ago were considered fatal, are
are now known to be durable. Even
consumption is no longer looked
upon with the dread that it former
~ inspired.
It is right on this line Of wasting
diseases that we now have news Of
a wonderful discovery-one that is
bound to revolutinize the science Of
medicine and startle the world.

have drifted into incurable diseases
who might have been sayod had it
been possible to administer this
potent medicine. Enough people
! have been able to assimilate cod
liver oil to prove to the medical
profession and the world at large,
it's intrinsic value. Such patients as
were blessed with unusually strong
stomachs derived benefit from cod
liver oil. Why then. could not q
form of it be devised, to be admins.

organs had been weakened by dis

& chemists have been aiming at for
