or a drug that will always cure one
disease or two or more diseases.
Even the sldllful and expert physi-
clan or veterinarian is often at sea
and puzzled to get a drug that will
produce positive and definite action
under given circumstances and con-
ditions presented to him clinically.
There are stockmen and farmers
who believe that medicine will take
the place of care and feed. This is
So absurd that it scarcely needs a
knock to kill it. Remember:
l. Drugs at best in the hands of
the expert physician only assist or
Ierimt nature to do the healing and
curing.
2. Misapplied drugs do more harm
than good. They often injure and
sometimes kill men and animals.
3. No medicine is a specific for
two or more diseases. Hence, patent
medicine cure-alls are rank mistakes.
4. Very few drugs are always or
unfsiling specifics. Quinine for ma
laris is one of the specifics that some
times fails.
5. 1t is always safer to let nature
take its course rather than use a>cure-
all or shotgun medicine.
6. Always resort to good nursing,
hygiene, sanitation and all lines of
preventions and the saving and con-
serving of animals will astonish and
convince you of their positive val1e..-

faith grows.
Superstitious, blind false beliefs
have cursed and held down all peoples
throughout the past and will continue
to do destructive work as long as the
people want and look for super-nat-
ural and inexplicable action in drugs
and patent medicines.
The common sense of every man
should teach him that records and
tests show that there are few fixed or
exact and scientifically specific drugs;
that there is not a patent medicine

Kval. Elected Instead of Volstead

preventative A. J. Volstead, who
represented the 7th Minnesota Dis
trict in Congress for eighteen years,
was beaten by a coalition of those
opposed to Prohibition and the Non-
Partisan League.
The Rev. O. J. Kvale, who was
victorious in Mondays primaries, has
been an active worker for Prohibition
for twenty-six years, but the main
idea the vets had in mind was to
defeat Volstead for the psychology

the country. Kvale's majority is
around 1000.
