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.

It is a fact that

Angier's Petroleum Emulsion

is indicated and is effective in all forms of Summer Diarrhoea of both adults and infants. Because

1. Petroleum itself is sterile-germs cannot grow in it. 2. It is sedative, soothing and inflammation-allaying to the entire intestinal tract.

3. Intestinal antiseptics and astringents are useful, when given alone, only in the upper part of the intestines. Suspend them in Angier's Petroleum Emulsion and they are carried to the lower part of the ileum and colon — just where the trouble is located and just where they are needed.

IMMUNITY.-CHAPTER XVI.

In this chapter The Journal A.M.A., May 27th and June 3rd, describes Metchnikoff's theories of phagocytosis, its triple activities, nutritional resorptive and protective, his conceptions of macrophages and microphages, of cytase, and of the parts taken by these in vital and degenerative processes. His phagocytic theory of immunity is summarized by The Journal in the following statements: "1. Natural antibacterial immunity depends on and is co-extensive with phagocytosis and subsequent digestion of the microbes. The intraleucocytic destruction of the microorganisms is accomplished by the

cytase, possibly aided by intraleucocytic fixators. Normal serum is devoid of both fixators and cytase. 2. Acquired antibacterial immunity depends on the establishment of a heightened phagocytic power as the result of immunization or infection. In disease like anthrax, in which fixators are not increased, this new power is an acquired property of the leucocytes, and is independent of any influence on the part of the serum. In disease like cholera, the new fixators which are formed may render the micro-organisms more susceptible to phagocytosis, but this is probably secondary to increased function on

Resinol for Pruritus

RESINOL

is the specific for all forms of pruritus. 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.
