108 MICROBES AND THE MICROBE -KILLER. 



what healthier parts, because the sap is distributed from 

 the root to the extremity of the tree or plant, and, of 

 course, the bacteria are carried with it. To cut the 

 most diseased part from the tree does not cure it. The 

 natural processes going on in plants are the same as 

 those going on in man. To cut the diseased part from 

 the human body does not cure it, because the disease 

 is in the blood which circulates through the system. 

 Hence no surgical instruments should be used for the 

 purpose of curing a disease, for it will still go on and 

 eventually reappear in a more dreadful form in the 

 same or other parts of the body. Anatomical surgery 

 in case of accident, has nothing to do with curing dis- 

 ease. For such purpose we shall always i^eed surgeons 

 who are well posted about the anatomy of the human 

 frame. When such operations are necessary the mi- 

 crobe-killer should always- be used to saturate both the 

 body and wound, to prevent the inflammation and fer- 

 mentation caused by the action of microbes, and a 

 healthy healing will be the result. The success of bud- 

 ding or grafting a tree or plant upon another does not 

 depend upon how the cut is made, how sharp the knife, 

 or how the graft is transferred, but upon how to prevent 

 the process of fermentation from entering the wound. 

 By keeping the air and moisture, that promote fermen- 

 tation, from entering the sap through the cut, the scion 

 or bud will always grow. If, however, the tree to be 

 grafted is already sick, the operation will be a failure in 

 spite of all the care that may be exercised. The very 

 same results are to be observed in surgical operations 

 performed on the human body. The successful healing 

 of a wound does not depend upon the sharpness of the 

 knife or skilfulness of the operator, but entirely upon 

 how to prevent the microbes (which induce fermenta- 

 tion) from entering the blood through the wound. If 

 the person to be operated upon is already sick, if his 

 blood is filled with microbes, the operation will not be 

 successful. By a free use of Eadam's Microbe-Killer in 

 case of accident, no healthy person need fear death.
