In Tuberculosis Fresh air and over-feeding, combined with rest in the earlier stage of treatment, are now recognized as the only means of successfully combating the disease. Lacto-Globulin is the only concentrated nourishment which fulfils the requirements of the Profession A pure and non-sterilized albumen, retaining the natural enzymes of fresh milk. A transformation of casein into globulin by a physiological process, and not by chemical synthesis. Rich in soluble phosphates, maintaining the alkalinity of the blood and increasing leucocytosis. The proteid of new milk in its most readily assimilable form. A natural food retained by the most delicate stomach, and decreasing all gastric and intestinal irritation. Lacto-Globulin is so easily digested and so rapidly assimilated that it forms an absolutely ideal food for frequent administration between meals and before retiring. It will increase the natural appetite and the power of digestion through its affinity for and attraction of the gastric enzymes, and gives the maximum nutriment at the least taxation of the digestive organs. At any stage Of Pulmonary Tuberculosis, the most satisfactory remedy is ANGIER’S PETROLEUM EMULSION, because — (1) It fortifies nutrition to a sufficient degree to antagonize the progress of the disease. (2) It palliates the symptoms; cough is less troublesome; fever, night-sweats and exhaustion less pronounced. (3) It pacifies the irritable stomach always, and makes it receptive of food and medicines. Authorities recommend Angier's Petroleum Emulsion as an indispensable aid in treating both incipient and advanced forms of phthisis. Samples sent only upon request.

A., March 11th), considers at length the three principal causes of obstruction of the retinal arteries, viz., arterial disease, embolism and spasm. He thinks that primary thrombosis is rare, though thrombosis is frequently a complication of the above conditions. The most important arterial disease is arteriosclerosis, and he points out the earliest dangersignals of this condition. They are a slight increase of arterial reflex, slight irregularities in the size of the arteries, slight congestion of the disc, and feathery outline. Where the artery crosses above a vein the latter may be compressed. A little feathery exudate is often seen beside the arteries which should not be mistaken for the opaque nerve fibres often observed. With thickening of the central artery venus pulsation may sometimes be observed ophthalmoscopically; one or all of these conditions may be present. In more advanced cases the light reflex is increased, the arteries become beaded, retinal lesions appear and, finally, we have the full picture of albuminuric retinitis. The early stages of arterial degeneration require the careful inspection of the upright image for their detection.

There is nothing that produces such immediate cessation from its pain, burning and intolerable itching. Resinol Soap possesses the healing qualities of the Ointment, and is invaluable for cleansing affected parts. I tried your Resinol Ointment on myself. I had suffered from pruritus ani, or marginal eczema, for 25 years, and had tried many remedies without any relief, until Resinol proved soothing and stopped the itching instantly. J. T. HICKMAN, M.D., Mt. Jackson Va. Resinol Ointment is the first local application I have found that has given lasting and gratifying results in the treatment of pruritus vulvæ. DR. GRACE WINTERSTEEN, Harrisburg, Pa. I have used Resinol Ointment ever since it cured me of a severe case of pruritus of 15 years' standing. L. A. CLARK, M.D., Cambridge, N.Y. I have been prescribing Resinol Ointment for quite a while with very happy results, and find it excellent in all forms of skin diseases, also in many troubles of the vagina and rectum. Especially is it appreciated by physician and patient in pruritus. W. E. REYNOLDS, M.D., Hopkinsville, Ky. RESINOL CHEMICAL CO. Great Britain Branch- BALTIMORE, Md. Australasian Agents- |
