If it does neither, as above stated, and has produced many deaths and numerous failures to produce any impression, which can be reasonably attributed to its effect, and its production is a complete mystery, its physiological action unknown, my conscience would not permit me to use it either as a cure or prophylactic. You may ask, why not try these new remedies on their presentation, and not wait for others to develop their virtues? We once had a little experience in our early professional life which, perhaps, has had something to do with making us a little conservative. Some years ago, before the advent of the present innovations, one Dr. Bliss, late of Washington, D. C., wrote a very able article on the treatment of cancer, by the use of the condurango plant, citing cases of positive cure of that most formidable disease, and as it did not have any of the earmarks of the usual "wonderful discoveries," and after the publication of a certain certificate from the then VicePresident of the United States, we were induced to give the remedy a trial. Having two charity patients who we suffering with that disease, we invested one hundred and thirty-five dollars in condurango, and, after careful trial, we found ourselves out of pocket the amount, and no impression on the disease, but the patients both very much worse, as the remedy produced derangements of the stomach, and their lives were shortened, and their sufferings very much increased by the use of the drug; and its production was not mysterious, but an actual substance not connected with theories of a supernatural character, as is antitoxin, tuberculine, and other serums of like nature. Heart Failure. Among other cases of heart trouble, Dr. W. G. Binkley, Washington Borough, Pa., cites that of Mrs. F., aged sixty-two, subject to frequent attacks of heart failure. He prescribed Cactina Pillets. After one week's use, she has been free from any attack up to the present time, a space of four months. (CHEMICALLY PURE.)
