EYE TROUBLES AND THEIR CURE

Some decades ago very eminent orthodox oculist in America, the late Dr. Bates, did what Hahnemann did one hundred and fifty years ago for Homoeopathy.

HUMOUR AMONG THE DOCTORS

The tendency of the world has always been to jibe at the medico for his failures or his apparent failures, and this is not always in a kindly manner.

ZINC IN SUPPRESSION OF DISEASE IN CHILDREN

Belonging to reasonable and rich parents, but inheriting deep miasmatic tendencies from both, she acted to me like a child emotionally imprisoned, suppressed in her real nature.

The result is a truly wonderful transformation and her parents are most grateful.

Sandbags had been placed at my feet to prevent me from slipping on the wet tilt floor. I do not know exactly how much one weighed, but it little like twenty pounds, more or less. I grabbed a bag, placed it upon her abdomen to replace the lost weight, and held it there with a tight binder. Resuscitation was given quickly, and slowly she back from where I thought she was going.

HAIR NOTIONS AND BALD FACTS

Twelve men shaved the left side of their chests daily. In each case, when the hair had grown out again, microscopic comparison showed that shaving had no noticeable effect. The illusion of the stubble, when hair sprouts again after shaving, is caused by the changed ratio of the hairs diameter to its length. It allowed to grow, the steel bristles on a morning chin eventually become a silky beard.
