Doctors Condemned Out of Their
Own Mouths.

Sir Ashley Cooper, physician to Queen
Victoria, has declared, 'The science of
medicine is founded upon conjecture and
improved by murder" What a shock
ing statement from a man so eminent as
to have the royal family in his profess
sional care!
$50 gross is our ignorance of the
physiological character of disease that
it would be better to do nothing. PROF.
Magendie, France.
Sir James Johnson, formerly editor of
the Medical Chirurgical Review, Lon
don, says, II declare, as my conscien-
tious conviction, founded upon long
observation and experiment, that if
there were not single physician, sur
geon, chemist, druggist or drug on the
face of the earth, there would be less
sickness and mortality than now pre-
vail"
DR.. James Mason Good, the noted
author, says, '"The science of medicine is
barbarous jargon, and the effects of
our medicines in the highest degree un-
satisfactory, except that they haze de-
stroyed more kVes than aOGr, famine
and pestilemce combimed" How does
this sound to the people who have
mania for swallowing medicines?
'"The popular medical system has
neither philosophy nor common sense to
recommend it to confidence" - DR..
Evans, F. r. c., London.
physicians have hurried thousands
to their graves who would have recov-
cred if left to nature. PROF. Clark,
New York.
DR.. F. L. Oswald says: "Many sick
nesses are caused by poisons foisted up
on the system under the name of tonics,
beverages, or remedial drugs; the only
cure is to shun the poisons."
"It is my firm belief that the prevail
ing mode of practice is productive of
vastly more evil than good, and were it
absolutely abolished mankind would be
the gainer."- DIR. Cogswell,
Boston.

have been given to the ecclesiastical de-

many people who have made investments

full opportunity for some man or woman in
Zion, to whom God has given means, to
come forward and redeem this building,
and take it out Of the Zion Estate and

The garbage subject is again up for
discussion. The question as to what is
the best method of disposing of this
refuse has become the source of much
trouble in many cities all over the coun-
try. The matter has been solved in
some cities by the construction of suit
able incinerators, or reduction plants.
When this cannot be done, the old
method of carting it out of the city will
have to be followed

more especially of the garbage can it.
self. When this is properly taken care
of, you will find very few flies. Again
I repeat: Have a garbage can, or box,
and keep cover on it. Place all gar
bage in this can, and sprinkle the con-
tents twice a week with common kero-
sene. After the garbage man empties
your can, pour a little kerosene in, be-
fore any more garbage is placed in it.
Have another box or can for rubbish
such as empty cans, broken dishes, and
crockery, metal hoops, wire, etc. Keep
everything in these two boxes in your
alley, so that the man can easily empty
them.
If you keep a horse or COW, the manure
heap must be removed once week, and
the pile sprayed twice week, while it
