The Story of a Great London Surgeon's Experiments to Cure Constipation and Auto-Intoxication.

Through the wards of a great London hospital pass, annually, thousands of people. 7'lie magazines havo reported how a famous surgeon attending this hospital examined thousands of cases, and his judgment was that tho great majority of men and women suffer from florae internal weakness— .often the unsuspected cau=e of serious illness. Operating for Melancholia. Tho magazine reports state how a woman came to the Hospital in question in a deplorable state of health, apparently dying. She was thin, could take no food, and was covered with open sores. Tho noted surgeon operated and found that part of her colon (sometimes known as the ox-bow) was in a bad way. ko ho cut it clean array and joined up tho ends. Within twenty-four hours the patient ceased to be melancholic. In a short whilo tho natural processes began again and she improved rapidly. Meanwhile her sores, which had not been treated at sll. healed up. her spirits rose, and by .-itid by.fche departed, happy and well. llcr case, and others of tho same order which followed, became famous. Finding an Effective Internal Lubricant. Realising that the whole of suffering humanity could not be operated on, the surgeon set out to find some agent that would take the poisonous waste pro ucts out of the intestines without interfering with the natural functions of the body. He found that agent in a purified mineral oii, specially refined for internal use. Experiments proved that this purified oil would do what no other oil in the realm of Naturo would do—that it would act as a lubricant and remove waste products without acting as a purgative and weakening the natural digestive fluids. As a result of this .simple yet great discovery, it is now a coainion thing to treat people of all nqes.in this natural way for constipation and its allied ills. How Purified Mineral Oil Acts. But why is a purified mineral oil different from other oils? may be asked. Olive oil, for instance, is an excellent lubricant; but if only a small dose bo given, it is absorbed long before it reaches the lower bowel, where it is most needed; and if a large dose be 'given, the liver is overworked in trying to digest it. Pnrincd mineral oil—such as "Red C. Paraffin" —is a lubricant that the system canuot assimilate. It is all but tasteless and odourless, a slight suggestion of petroleum being its only distinguishing characteristic. It is not, however,. in tho slightest degree (
