use of a drop OF alcohol and preserving
them unimpaired in any climate for any
length Of time, cost DR.. Pierce and his
assistant chemists and pharmacists a
tedious course of study and expert
ments. extending over several years.
With the use of chemically pure glycer-
inc. of Just the right strength, and with
laboratory apparatus and appliances
specially invented and designed to carry
on the delicate processes employed, DR..
Pierce finally found that all the medici-
nal principles residing in the several
native medicinal roots could be more
perfectly extracted and better preserved
from fermentation than if alcohol was
employed.
Besides the glycerine, of itself, pos
sesses the property of greatly enhancing
the efficacy of the several medicinal
agents employed, whereas alcohol is
well known to be Objectionable in any
medicine to be employed in chronic or
lingering diseases, where, at best, treat
ment must be continued over a consid.
/ cradle period of time in order to make
the cure complete and permanent
