only pure sulphur bought ina drug
store. Every morning take two
or more teaspoonfuls of sulphur.
Wash the sulphur down with a
glass or two of water. Get
some iron sulphate from a drug
store. Dissolve every morning
a very small pinch Of iron sui
phate in a glass of water and
drink it.
Iron sulphate is an astringent
and counteracts the excessive
laxative effects of the sulphur.
1t is the sulphur that cures the
disease. not the iron sulphate;
any other astringent may be
used instead of iron sulphate, as
for example lime warter, but
iron sulphate is the best.
How | came to think Of sui
phur as a cure for consumption
was in this way: | had tried in
jecting certain powders into my
lungs, such as lin e, borax, ETC.,
by means of atomizers and had
become worse and worse, and
then the idea came to me that if
| could get at the germs in some
other way, as for example by
means of some gas liberated
from the blood in the lungs, that
is, by means of some gas eX-
hailed from the lungs, said gas
being poisonous to tuberculosis
germs, that | could kill the
germs in this way. And then |
thought now perhaps if sulphur
is swallowed internally every
day it will chemically combine
with water in the intestines and
form hydrogen sulphide gas.
Part of this hydrogen sulphide
gas will be exhaled through the
lungs, come in contact with the
tuberculosis germs and kill them.
It is well known that the bowels, !
the kidneys, the skin and the
lungs compose the excretory sys-
tenn of the body. Hence it
would be natural to suppose that
some Of this hydrogen sulphide
gas would be eXcreted through
the lungs. And such | have

from six to eight months.

be increased or decreased &C
