EVEN IN THIRD STAGE
From the New York Herald.

And now comes a man from Cuba VINO
says he can cure consumption, even In the
third stage. with Bermuda onions. Pro-
lessor Golinsk is his name. Strange to say
he was born in Railway, N. j., where
managers used to try plays on the Jersey
dog. But for twenty-five years the pro
lessor has practieed on the consumptiVe
patients of the West Indies and SCUM
America.
II am fully satisfied said the professor.
after long experience, that consumption
is neither contagious infectious nor
inherited disease. Children born OF con-
sumptive parents inherit only predls-
position to consumption but not the ols-
ease itself which is developed in many
such children after birth.

..Tba Rermuda. onion, by reason of its
culture and ingredients, contains mar

taste and a specific for the dread dis

prepared bed chiefly of the meal OF the
castor bean ground up The onion growing
In this soil becomes medicated ana
great blood tonic, restoring the weakest
stomach. building up the nerves through
out the human system.
..This is the process. After one eats the
onion the gases arising during steep are
inhaled into the air sacs OF the lungs oe
stroying the consumptive microbes. IN no

Another outrage is the use of creosote.

proves that creosote, as usuaiiy pre-
scribed. destroys the beneficial mucous
coating of the lungs and stomach, leaving
tha organs in such a condition tnat When

the severe pains take away the patent ;
appetite. Consequently the organs anu

robbed and left raw and unnourished.

used by consumptives. The organs are
in a low state. especially the liver and
the stomach. and digestion becomes more
difficult when cod liver oil is adminis-
tered The thing most needed by the con-
snmptive is ability to digest food and
nourish the wasting organs of the body
cod liver oil clogs and prevents certain
gases from passing out of the system.
| consequently the gases remain, lifting
the hearts wall and causing terrible
denression SO common to consumptiVes
and inyalids using cod liver oil. Easy d.
eestion is absolutely necessary to the con-
sumptive: therefore, | repeat, that the
open-air treatment, the creosote and the
cod liver oil additions should be aban-
doned and the patient treated nationally
and scientifically

consume lung tissue. but not sufficiently
to produce death. The direct cause OF
