Did it ever occur to you that the reason medical doctors have so little success in curing Tuberculosis is be- cause they really do not practice medi- cine?
 To say that specific exists for the cure of Consumption is perhaps too strong a statement, but in Eckman's Alterative we have a medicine that has to years of usefulness and in perma- nently, curing large number of Con- sumptives.
 Telling every sufferer to gorge him self with eggs and milk is apparently the limit of modern treatment. Ger tainly a person afflicted with a vast ing disease should be well fed with wholesome. nourishing food: but fre- a digestive breakdown and then no food nourishes. As for milk a very good food for. many; but producer of biliousness for some.
 Any diet that keeps Consumptive we'll nouriehed is the right one, but what is going to cure the patient? Eek mans Alterative has cured and is cur ing many case of Consumption. Let those speak who know. Here is a specimen:

Cotton has always been one of the principal resources of the South. In former days. only the Cotton lint was valued and preserved. The seed was thrown away as worthless. In recen years. however, the skin and genius of experts have developed this waste product until now thu Cotton Seed oil adds millions of dollars eacl year to the wealth of the South.
 Foremost in perfecting methods of refinini and utilizing the oil have been The N. K. Fair bank Company. They first, appreciated thu need of . cooking fat mora clean and whole some than that made from the fat of the hog In the manufacture of Cottolene they hay changed Cotton Seed On into cooking fat . wholesome as olive oil, yet so pure and neutrs that many housewives use 1t in place of butte in making fine cake.
