At one Of the London public hos
pitals n special point is made Of giving
alcohol 20 the patients as rarely ana
sparely as possible; and each time
that one OF the physicians does so ne
submits a special entry OF the reasons
that actuated him. In the thlrty-two
years Of the existence of the hospital
alcohol has only been given seventy
one times. The cases received are
exactly like those received by oil the
other hospitals. For 1904 they mum
bered 1887 in patients only. The
death-rate among these was I.3 per
cent. For the same year the average
death rate among the other London
public hospitals was e.l per cent.
Therefore the uss Of alcohol In sick
ness IL not 10 be regarded as a neces-
city. Although most physicians pre-
scribe alcohol in solution with drugs
for their patients--there was one ply
sican OF national reputation who did
not believe in using alcohol. Many
years ago when DR.. r. v. Pierce de-
cided 20 put up his valuable "Prescrip-
ton" for the diseases of women In
vready To use form he used as
solvent and pFeservative chemically
pure glycerine of proper strength,
which is a better solvent and preserva-
tive of the active medicinal principles
residing i'm most Of our indigenous or
native plants than is alcohol. DIR.
Pierce found that tho Rlycerine, be-
sides being entirely harmless, possesses
intrinsic medicinal properties, OF great
value.
No woman who is suffering from
inflammation, from the pains and
drains Incident TO womanhood can
afford 10 be without DR.. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription. An honest medi-
cine which has the largest number oil
