AUTo-HEMIC TREATMENT.

If one can judge of the popular in
terest taken in measure that is cal
culated to improve the health of peo-
pie by the number of individuals in
curing about that treatment, it would
be fair to conclude that the system
of cure named Auto Hemic Treat
ment, has appealed to the people of
this community in an unusual man
ner. The reasonableness of this treat
ment strikes responsive chord and
appeals to the reasoning powers as
few methods do. 1t is simply carry
ing out the method of Nature in the
cure of disease, aiding the natural
forces in the accomplishment of case
that is too great for them unaided.
When the body is invaded by disease
it is fact that all know that the vi
tai forces at once set to work to try
to eradicate the disease process. There
are organs in the body whose task it

AN ACT OF KINDNESS.

The cynic smiles his cold, hard
smile when one speaks of "the milk
Of human Kindness" but there is one
who knows that kindness still ami
mates the breast of his fellows. Last
night at the hour when most of us
were preparing to yield our tired
bodies to the soothing arms of Nor
pheus, it was the i'll fortune of the
writer to drive into one of the worst
mudholes that our beautiful city af-
fords, and by no coaxing or compul-
sion could his car be induced to bulge
from its loblolly bed. Just as he was
about to give up and abandon his car
for the night and trudge homeward,
there appeared three fellows who, re-
yardless of the deep mud and water,
,,aded out to the middle of the street
and with shovel, tackle and pulley,
and good old-fashioned elbow grease,
proceeded to put the helpless car on
terra firma. When this stage of the
game was reached, the writer went
hunting for his check book, feeling
that such help deserved liberal COM
pensation. What was his feeling when
to his question, "What is the bill 2"
the reply came quick as thought,
Nothing at all, Neighbor" You are
saying, "Who were these fellows 2"
Were to name them they would feel
that my gratitude which l tried so
hard to express was camouflage and
therefore l can only call them EEL
lows" But in that word, Fellows"
is bound up all of the kindly feelings
and qualities that go to make up
NAN, a real white MAN. No, will
not publish their names, for l want
them for my friends while l live to
call such fellows my friends, and yet
want to add my testimony in sup
port of the claim that "The milk of
human kindness" is the sweetest thing
on earth. DIR. E. E. LUSK.

the immediate families and a few

Mr.. and Mrs. Wolfe will make their

hearty congratulations and wish them
long and happy welded life.

is to manufacture, or produce, sub
stances for fighting any disease pro-
cess that may attack the system.
Those substances have been named by
medical science "Anti- Bodies" anti
meaning against,-and all that any
system of treatment can do to aid
Nature in the war against disease is
to reinforce these Anti Bodies and
render them more potent in their
fight against the invading germs. In
this all physicians are agreed. 1t fol-
lows, then, that the method of treat
ment that will most effectively aid
Nature In Her Own Way will be the
most effective method. For long
time medical scientists believed that
this could be most effectively accom-
pEshed by the use of preparations
that were made from cultures of
germs taken from the diseased per-
son together with the toxines, of pois-
ems, of these same germs from which
serums were made containing the
dead germs and their poisons. In these
efforts one essential fact was lost
sight of, namely, that in all of those
germ cultures the serum from the
blood of the patient from whom the
culture was taken was included in the
sample used. In this serum were to
be found millions of Anti-Bodies
which had been sent to the disease
attacked organs for the purpose OF
fighting the invading organisms thaH;
were the cause of the disease There
fore, when the serum was prepared
these Anti-Bodies were incubated, re.
vitalized, and injected into the pa.
tient who was to be treated, often
another individual than the one from
whom the culture was taken. Which
was it that did the work of curing the
patient-the dead germs or the re-
vitalized Anti-Bodies? Naturally,
you will admit, it was the latter.
Admitting this fact, you will natur-
ally ask "Why, then, not prepare a
serum containing the Anti-Bodies
without the germs and their pois-
ons?" This is exactly what is done
in Auto-Hemic Treatments. To pre-
pare this serum, few drops of the
blood Of the patient to be treated is
drawn from vein, this blood is then
subjected to light and heat, both of
which are essential in incubation, and
incubated for certain length of time,
reyitalized and potentized, and SER
UNI is prepared without the addition
OF any drug of germ, and this serum
is re-injected into the blood stream
of the individual from whom the blood
is drawn. The only active ingredient
in the Auto-Hemic serum is the sub
stance which medical scientists have
named Anti Bodies, and fresh sup
ply of serum is made for such pa
tient and made from his own Anti
Bodies. Thus it will be seen at once
that in Auto emic Treatments the
identical method employed by Nature
is utilized and in this way is most
truly accomplished the desire of medi-
cal science to assist Nature in the
cure of disease.

The Commercial Club has been

are considerably elated that the deal
has finally been brought to head.
When this concentration plant is in
operation, farmers can haul their
hogs here and get virtually the same
price as they could by hauling them
to Omaha. This should make Mis-

Western Iowa.
