Attacks Upon Patent Medicines Made
by Men Of Mercenary Mind.

Attacks Upon Patent Medicines Made
by Men Of Mercenary Mind.
No other business of legitimate
character has ever been obliged to
stand such unwarranted and vicious
attacks as have been made on the
patent medicine" business by men
OF supposed and professed intelli-
gence and honesty, who have In most
cases, been actuated only by desire
to further their own selfish ends. The
patent medicine" business is one
that had its inception in the dire
necessity OF the people, and one that
has grown to its present magnitude
by reason of the virtue of the prepare
lions 1t has put out At the present
time the patent medicine" business
represents the investment OF many
millions Of dollars and the employ
ment OF many thousands OF men.
The business Of the patent medi-
cine" manufacturers is to provide a
system OF medication. for home use,
that lacks nothing in efficacy when
compared with doctors remedies, for
simple and familiar ailments. aad
which Is, at the same time, within the
financial reach OF all.
In the practice of medicine physi-
clans originated or assimilated many
specific remedies. Sometimes the
knowledge Of specifics was obtained
from an old grandmother, who had
practiced the healing art with roots,
herbs and banks. Some OF them have
been devised by the ingenuity OF
physicians, but many OF them have
been handed down from generation to
generation. Those are the simple
remedies in everyday use and in con.
slant demand.
These remedies were so constantly
used that their efficacy became gen.
orally known-they became the stand.
ards of the medical world, the medi.
cal staples, so to speak. Physicians
who used them and who knew their
result producing ability saw the de.
mand for them and devised means
for their wholesale manufacture in
laboratories great enough to make
economy and exactness possible.
When the first physician started to
manufacture more OF a certain rem.
edy than he needed for immediate
use the patent medicine" business
was born, and with It's birth there
came into existence the system OF
family medication that is now so gen.
orally in vogue.
