Opium and its alkaloids are invaluable drugs, but have disadvantages. Papine serves a similar purpose, without the disadvantages. IODIA is an alterative in the true sense of the word. BROMIDIA has a host of users throughout the civilized world, many of whom stand high in professional renown. In prescribing these preparations always specify "Battle's," and see that the prescription goes to an honorable and reputable druggist who will not stultify or degrade his good name and reputation by substitution.

The restlessness and nervousness attendant in acute diseases can usually
be controlled by a few half teaspoonful doses. It is well worthy of a place
in the armamentarium of every physician.

SANMETTO IN BRIGHT'S DISEASE.-Charles F. Reiff, M. D., of Fremont, O., writing, says: "I prescribed Sanmetto in a case of advanced Bright's Disease. The patient became more comfortable, and since then has used several bottles of Sanmetto. In my opinion Sanmetto is the most efficient remedy for diseases of the genito-urinary organs, and I shall continue to prescribe the remedy."

Hernia in Children

[subsumed][subsumed][subsumed][merged small][merged small][graphic][merged small][merged small]

Is usually easy to cure, but the treatment sometimes perplexes the physician. First, the hernia must be completely and continuously retained; second, the child must be made comfortable.

Let us show you how these two important demands are met in

Seeley's

Hard-Rubber

Trusses

Many think that "Hard" rubber is
not suitable for infants. We admit that
it don't "sound" right, when we think
of a delicate child, but let us send you
our argument on that point. It is based
upon 35 years' experience in curing
hundreds of children without discomfort
with our hard-rubber truss. After read-
ing our book, we would like to have you
examine our trusses at your druggist's
or instrument dealer's.

[blocks in formation]

I have used two bottles of Wine of American Ash in my practice, and the results have been so good that I want more at once.

I treated a lady this summer with tampons, iron tonics, liq sedans, etc. for womb trouble with benefit, but I concluded to try Wine of American Ash, as my wife said it is the only medicine which ever did her any good. I gave her two four ounce bottles, of the number received from you, and the other day her husband asked for more, stating that the Wine of American Ash had done her more good than the whole summer's treatment.

in commenting on the report of Prof. Horsford, of theScientific Commission of the United States to the Vienna Exposition, upon Vienna Bread makes the following statement:

[graphic]

"The significance of the nutritive salts in food is sufficiently well known to physiologists; it is known that without their co-operation the other constituents of food are incapable of affording nourishment. By simple soaking of fresh or boiled meat in water, which extracts the nutritive salts, it would become incapable of serving in the preservation of life. The nutritive salts of wheat are identical with the nutritive salts of meat, and one understands that what is true for meat is also true for bread, and that the nutritive value of flour is less in the same proportion as it contains less of the nutritive salts than the grain. The nutritive salts of meat and wheat are phosphates, and consist of compounds of phosphoric acid with potassa, lime, magnesia and iron; the simple relations of the quantity of these substances contained in wheat and in flour,as shown by chemical analysis, will be sufficient to make obvious the difference in nutritive value of the two. These phosphates are indispensable to the nutrition of all higher organizations. They enter into and constitute a part of, not only the bones, but every muscle, every nerve tissue; and in each secretory organ there seems to be a special accumu lation, to be employed in the elaboration of the products which are secreted."

The Fine Flour of the Entire Wheat as ground by the Franklin Mills retains all the Phosphates, Mineral Salts and Gluten of the entire wheat berry: as a consequence every pound of this flour represents a pound of food value. Easy of digestion, perfect in assimilation, it thoroughly nourishes every part of the body.
