DIET CURES CONSUMPTION.
Get Fat, Build Up, and the Dreaded
Disease will Disappear.

Disease will Disappear.
No less medical authority than DR..
Osler says: "The cure of tuberculosis
is question of nutrition; make pa
tient grow fat and the local disease
may be left to take care of itself. 7,
Many others who have occupied the
highest position in the medical profes-
sion have said the same; but none have
pointed out successful way of ac-
complishing it.
The most certain method ever adopt
ed for the cure of the "Great White
Plague" is through the diet used as per
directions given below which can be
taken at home and comes within reach
of the poor as well as the rich.
The modus operandi As to force the
body to take on fat, desideratum long
felt by the medical profession but new
er before attained to. Isl
During the last fifteen years / have
prescribed this diet in hundreds of in
stances and where directions have been
followed strictly it has raised the
weight and increased the strength, and
vitality of the patient rapidly up to a
normal condition, thus enabling nature
to assert her sovereign right to be the
dominating force in the body and the
germs causing consumption have been
overcome and the cure accomplished.
Some have gained pound day and
would gradually take on less until they
would not increase in weight more.
The all important thing is to drink
large quantities of milk strippings (the
very last of the milking, which is all
cream when proper COW is selected.)
This seems SO simple and easy that
many have refused to follow direc-
tions and demand medicinesl to cure
them, but there has not yet been dis
covered any medicine that is specific
for consumption.
To get best results a healthy COW
should be selected, one that does not
cough and one that gives very rich
milk. A Jersey COW is preferable.
The milk should always be tested, to
be sure that there is a large percent
age of cream in it.
The last quart should be milked into
a separate dish which rests in larger
vessel containing warm water just
sufficient to prevent the strippings
from cooling below blood heat. The
COW should be thoroughly cleaned to
prevent any dirt getting into the milk,
SO the patient can blow back the froth
and drink at once without straining, as
this cools it too much.
Begin by drinking nearly pint in
the morning and the same at night,
and increase the quantity gradually so
that in 10 or Is days full quart will
be taken twice a day. 1t should be
taken Immediately after milking, be-
fore it has had time to cool any. All
should be taken that can be without
too much discomfort, and then rest 2
or 8 minutes and drink more and rest
again, and so on until full quart has
been taken as soon as it can be con-
In about fifteen minutes
the patient should eat at the table such
articles of food as are known tc agree
with the stomach. At noon eat as
usual.
When the strippings are not allowed
to cool below heat and taken immedi-
ately after it is MIXED full quart
will be transfused into the circulation
in remarkably short time.
| never have seen,a case but could
take the strippings without any dis
comfort worth mentioning when above
directions were followed strictly, al
though some have declared they could
not before trying it; but when they de-
lsyed taking for half an hour and the
milk had cooled ten degrees l have
seen half pint make them very sick.
The great secret of success with 1t is
i1 taking it Immediately after milking
and not allowing it to cool below blood
heat, taking a full quart morning and
evening, that is very rich..
