and deadly OF all diseases is proven by
the fact that the deaths each year from
this awful scourge are greater than
from all other contagious diseases COM
bined.
At the first sign or indication of trou-
BILE the sufferer should Immediately seek
the best medical advice he can find, in
stead of wasting precious time with
stomach nostrums. which never cured a
single case of genuine consumption, but
which weaken the patients constitution
at the very time when he most needs
all his bodily functions in their best
working order.
The only sure way ever discovered to
eradicate the consumption poison is by
the Inhalation OF the healing, oily vapors
OF the Koch "Tuberculine," medicated
with germicidal and curative oils These
wonderful Vapors penetrate to the very
seat of the disease. killing the germs
and permanently curing consumption,
asthma, and all lung diseases. Hun
drcds of people all over the land have
been cured by the Koch treatment, and
are today living monuments of its sue
cess.

Lung Cure is at 1926 New York Avenue.
