Story of the
Eiker-H0ff Cure.

But a short time ago the entire scien-
tifc world, especially that portion Of it
devoted to medicine, was startled by the
results reached by a 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 a 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 consumptive abroad
Mt 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
1ork's famous hospital, the Vanderbilt
Clinic. The presence of tubercule bacilli
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. >.-
Upon his return the New. York Life In
surance Company issued a 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.
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
sicians who have figured in this remark
able case Of cure, and which were named
In DR.. simons paper, are: Drs. Daniel
Cook, J. Mount Bleyer, Henry P. LOOMS,
b. F. Cline and Henry T. Brooks. of New
York City and DR.. Sylvester Willard and
Sir Henry Broadbent of London.
The Eiker-Hoff Cure is the outgrowth
of this remarkable case. What it has &C
complished is shown in part in the accom-
those that are handed out with the free
trial bottles.
A more extraordinary feature of the
Hoff Cure remains to be told. 1t is, that
In this marvellous discovery Professor
Hoff builded more wisely than he the1
knew. 1t has been found that his cure
while directed primarily against Con
sumption, is just as efficacious and mucl
more prompt in it's action in cases o
Asthma, Catarrh and Bronchitis. TIL
Eiker-Hoff Cure has demonstrated tina
his prescription is a positive cure TO
these diseases, which are but the advanc
guard of Consumption, requiring but
few weeks at the most for their success
full eradication. It has cured RADICAL
great numbers of people afflicted Wit
these maladies, besides those sufferin
from coughs, colds, and other disorder
Of the breathing organs Of the huma
body.
In carrying out the humane work in
augurated by Professor Hoff, the Eike
Drug company would invite attention t
the extreme reasonableness of price, bu
one dollar ($100) per month, of the Eike1
Hoff Cure. In a large number of cases
one-month treatment effects a complet
cure. Never before was a positive cur
offered to the public for so small
charge, which places it within the reac
Of all classes of people.
However, the immediate purpose of tn
announcement is not to sell the Eikel
Hoff Cure, but to persuade readers to ca
ut the address given and procure samp
bottles in order to demonstrate for then
selves the virtues Of this remarkab
