Proprietary Medicine
Frauds Should Be Exposed

There have been plenty of them, no
doubt, and they have been vigorously con-
demned-so vigorously that every sort of
medicine the formula of which is private
ly owned is condemned and pronounced
"unethica1' by the Medical Profession
Eckman's Alternative deserves attention,
not because it is a proprietary but be-
cause it really has cured many cases of
Tuberculosis. If it is a fraud it needs
exposing badly, because a number of
cured Consumptives will need to find
some other reason for being well.
Henry Clay said he would rather be
right than be President. Is it not better
for Ecknrans Alternative to make cures
than to be ethical.
