Appendicitis Is Beef Trust dis.

1t comes from the breakfast delica.
cies made out Of Gamer cows and
trichina pork.
The Trust sausage IL one Of the won.
ders Of creation.
1t Is made out Of the cheapest meat
and the trimming Of Gamers, lumpy-
jaw cattle and dead swine.
After being thoroughly mixed with
a horrible connection known to the
trade as potato flour, this chopped,
stamped, crushed and chemically treat.
cd meat IL stuffed into the frequently
diseased CUTS Of dead animals aud IL
sold to the public as sausage.
Despite the chemlcals compounded
with the "mea" to make 1t smell
natural both the compound itself,
as well as the easing" us the gut Is
now called, IRE frequently the abode
Of micr0.Organisms.
1t Is these heterogeneous that
cause appendicitis.
Aammation Of the vermiform appendix,
which lies In the lower right hand cor
ner Of the abdomen.
The vermiform appendix is sack
attached to the intestine.
1t Is into this resting place that the
microbes crawl ind cause trouble.
The real trlchina microbc, which Is
very abundant In pork, and for which
no search IL made by the Beef Trust,
eats through all the human intestines,
and, playing no favorites, Is always
fatal.
But the bad meat microbe, which
causes appendicitis, has not strength
enough to bore through the intestines.
1t merely crawls into the first and
only stopping place In the bowels-the
vermiform appendix-and there 1t
works away until 1t starts inhamma.

When the FIRST physicians began to
realize the geological importance Of
the appendix In intestinal infiamma.
ton, II was thought that seeds or 9th
or offending material became lodged
therein. but many operations soon
proved tho contrary, for Outlines no
foreign bodies were found In 1t, and
other abdominal operations often show
ed collections In tho appendix that had
caused no trouble.
Most Of the best physicians and the
ablcst surgeons are now convinced that
appendicitis Is caused by bad meat.
The disease, singularly enough, was
never heard Of until Beef Trust meth
DDS began to prevail In this country,
and now 1t Is to DO found wherever
Beef Trust products have a SALE.
According to the United States cen

mentioned In the United States census

the Beef Trust!

Now tho city inspection has beer
stopped aud that 1t was always thu
habit to use tho carcases Of cancerOu'
or lumpy jawed cattle after the can
GERS were cut out, the public Ii prob
ably getting q fuller dose Of lumpy
jawed cattle for food than ever. o.
the very day that the city discontinued
Its Inspection aud condemnation, tin
Commissioner OF Health OF Chicago Is
sued the following remarkable instruc
tions In his bulletin Of December 30
1905:
'srhe Commissioner has issued tin
following instructions to the chief In
spector ut the Union Stock Yards:
"'While actinomycosis IL usual!
confined to the head. and may BIO sail
In one sense to be q localized disease
and while some inspectors condemn
only the part involved, l believe 1t i
safest aud most practicable to condemn
the entire carcass wherever the actl
nOmycOtic abscess opens Into til
mouth, pharynX, larynx or any part o
the digestive or respiratory tract; o
when the lymphatic glands are invol'
ed; or where there are actinomycoti
tumors In the lungs or when the Il
siOns have become generalized, sine
generalization In actinOmycosis appear
to run a very atypic course, maxim
the detection Of all fOci inside tn

tire carcass Is to be condemned.
"In cases where the actinomyc0ti
LESSONS are positively localized, the II

remains Of the carcass used.

The spirits of thousands of poo

These thousands were killed by til
