How to Tell It, A rundown condition, with loss of welght and osppetite, is responsible for thousands of invalids who believe they have consumption, The agouis- ing fear that they may have con- mption has secretly killed more people than the disease itself. Cough and pain are symptoms com- mon to all Jung affections, including consumption. Night sweats, chills, fever, and even spitting blood occur during the course of many other dis- eases of the heart, liver, stomach and kidneys. Consumption is not the only retaries; John M.

No disease can escape immediate detection. Consumption has met {ts final de- feat in a scientific and unexpected manner, Consumption and other diseases can now be detected in time to effect a positive cure. Dr. Anderson's X-light discovery and inveutions have given to the scientific medical world a new means of seeing directly to the inside of the body, and thus by actual eyesight every part of the internal body is immediately seen and the diseased are located with such scientific now being accomplished which used to be called incurable ecnsumption. The war upoa consamption must be- gin with the diagnosis, Dr. Anderson for the past nineteen years has made o specialty of treat- ing lung troubles, Germicidal and healing oils are vaporized by means of a 8 ozone generator and breathed ints the air tubes and lungs, and by this original sclentific method the germs are destroyed and the dis- ease arrested; the lungs and bron- chial tubes are cleared, the ulcers and sore places are healed.
