VEGETABLE JUICE
CURE FOR
CONSUMPTION.

of the wonderful cures of con
sumption through the use of
the juice of raw vegetables
and fruits. 1t seems that the
treatment began by the use
OF potatoes, onions, beets,
turnips, cabbages and celery.
Later there were added sweet
potatoes, apples, pineapples,
carrots and parsnips, and still
later rhubarb, summer squash,
tomatoes, spinach, 'radishes,
string beans and groen peas
In the pod.
1t would seem to be absurd
on its face that such treat
ment could be used to effectu-
ally combat consumption, vet
so high an authority as DR..
Russell of the above. named
hospital, who seems to have
made the discovery and de-
veioped the treatment, states
that eleven cases Of well-de-
veloped pulmonary tubercu-
losis have been absolutely
cured while fifty others are
under treatment and progress
ing satisfactorily.
1t is to be hoped that the
long looked for cure of this
dread disease has at last been
found in this treatment, but
the medical profession will,
doubtless, be scepticai, as they
are and should be on all new
treatments until more than
eleven cases have been cured
by a combination of simple
vegetable juices that contain
little, if any, of the nourish-
ment required by the con-
sumptive. AS DR.. Russell
says he has been the principle
advocate of nutrition as op.
posed to medicine in the
treatment of tuberculosis, he
seems to contravert his own
theory in the use of these
vegetable juices that possess
such a small percentage of
nutrition.
Hygiene and nutrition of
the best sort are absolute re-
quisites in the treatment of
consumption. If the laws of
health are carefully observed
and the body is sustained
with nutritious, wholesome,
easily digested food, the raw
ages of the disease may be
arrested, even when the lung
tissue is involved. There is
little question that the best
nutrition in the world in such
cases is the old and much
abused cod liver oil; not in
its raw state but In the form
best adapted for its immediate
absorption into the body, as
found in SCOTS Emulsion of
pure Norwegian cod liver oil
which contains, in addition,
the valuable hypophcsphlres
of lime and soda and glycer-
Inc. We hesitate to say that
It will cure consumption, but
after thirty years experience
with it, the medical profession
knows that it will arrest the
progress of the disease and in
It's earlier stages generally ef-
tect a permanent cure. So
certain are we of this that
we challenge a comparative
clinical test in any hospital or
sanitarium where there are pa
tients afflicted with this mall
ady. If it will not cure more
cases of consumption, if the
same rules are observed, than
the vegetable and fruit Juice
treatment, we wll agree to
supply the institution making
the test with SCOTS Emulsion
free for year. There is no
doubt that SCOTS Emulsion
is the most concentrated form
OF nutrition in existence, and
If consumption can be cured
at all it will do it.
