Lime Starvation
Causes Tuberculosis

The Medical Record (Ncw York; Ot
December II, 1000, contains nm article
ON "Jhe Treatment of Pulmonary Tu-
berculosis, Hssed ON the Assumption
That the Dictetic Cause of the Disease
Is Lime Starvation" by ID. John r
Russcl, who says: "rhe condition
which Ii recognized as preceding the
active development of tuberculosis in
the adult may he considered as due
TO lime starvation. Among
Inorganic sUbstnnccs lime salts ap-
penr to he OF special physiological i'm
pOrtance but IL the salts arc
not in organic combination IT is diff
hcuIt to suppose that the cells can
appropriate til en- for food"
Years of widespread use confirm US
in the belief that the success of Eek
mans Alternative in cases of pulmon-
airy tuberculosis consumption and
chronic throat and bronchial troubles
is due in large measure to its content
Of lime SO combined with other in
gradients as TO be easily appropriated
by the cells.
Doubtless this has had much to do
with the results obtained in many
cases OF these affections. which appear
to have yielded to Eckman's Alternative.
AS It contains no opiates, narcotics or
habit-forming drugs. 1t is safe to try.
Your druggist will order 1t for you or
you can send direct.
