In spite of the statements OF a num-

claimed that they have found cure
for consumption, the National Associ-

there is no Information at hand to JUS

for tuberculosis has been discovered
which deserves the confidence Of the
medical profession and the people.
Backing up these statements. the
United States public health service
declares that outside of the three es-

ton, namely. rest, fresh air. and good
food, There is no drug known. how

are to be avoided. Patent cough med
