Advises Lime
For Tuberculosis

According to the journal OF the
American Medical Association (JuIy
~, 1912, Pnge :BOs), DR.. G. r. Olsen,
Of Minneapolis, holds that a "dcnci.
ency OF calcium" tIimeD Is responsible
for the physical conditions which lead
to tubercuIosis. "and the therapy hs
advocates rests OF this basis"
One of the reasons for the wide-
spread success of Eckman's Alternative
in the treatment Of tuberculosis and
chronic throat and bronchial troubles is
it's ability to supply this deficiency.
1t contains lime salt in such form
and so combined with other remedial
agents as to be easily assimilated by
the average person. There are on
record many cases in which II seems
to have effected complete and last
ing betterment.
However. we make no exaggerated
claims for Fckmans Alternative. We
prefer that 1t be tried on the same
basis one tries any other prescription,
and we believe it will help. for 1T HAS
HELPED in many cases.
1t contains no opiates. narcotics or
ha bit-forming drugs. Therefore. 1t is
safe to take. If your druggist Is out
