106 MICROBES AND THE MICROBE-KILLER. 



these facts, a proper test made with all the alleged blood 

 purifiers proves that they are valueless. The only blood 

 purifier yet discovered that fulfils all the requirements 

 of an antiseptic is Radam's Microbe-Killer, which is 

 harmless to the patient. This claim has been substan- 

 tiated in court and by the overwhelming testimony of 

 people cured of all forms of disease by its use. It is all 

 nonsense to prescribe iron and nerve food for the blood 

 filled with microbes. Such a course shows ignorance of 

 Nature and disease. They will have the same effect upon 

 the sick that guano has upon a crop that is full of weeds. 

 Get the microbes, which are the cause of all forms of 

 disease, out of the blood, and your daily food will furnish 

 all the elements necessary to make pure blood, flesh, and 

 color. There are thousands of men selling or prescribing 

 medicine who know absolutely nothing about what 

 disease is or what causes it ; if they did, the remedy 

 would suggest itself. 



Although a person sees the results of fermentation 

 running from his nose, an abscess, a wound or sore, and 

 expectoration, still it does not occur to him to ask for the 

 cause of it ; but he tries to get the symptoms cured in a 

 medical, scientific way that he cannot understand, till he 

 can bear up no longer or till his medical adviser admits 

 he can do no more. At the last moment, then, he 

 comes for Radam's Microbe-Killer, thinking that this 

 remedy will work miracles, and if the miracle does not 

 come immediately he blames the microbe-killer. The 

 patient has himself to blame for not killing the microbes 

 in time, just as the gardener has to bear the responsibil- 

 ity and loss for not killing the weeds that smothered his 

 crop. 



How small microbes are can be best illustrated thus : 

 A microbe is many times smaller than a blood corpuscle. 

 A single drop of blood contains about 200,000 discs or 

 corpuscles. Consequently a drop of blood taken from 

 a sick person may easily contain 1,000,000 microbes. 

 When a drop of blood is spread over a cover glass, it will 

 form a circle three-fourths of an inch in diameter. The
