TTTE ORTCCSX STATESMAN: WSl XH AY, FKltRl'ARV. 2. 1910 LIFTINGJTHE LID. tr. Leo Ricen. M, D., Portland, Oregon, gays; "There is a consider able number of operative cases, ap parently clean to begin 'with, and bundled wtlh faultless technic by iktpo't -n-grons, which terminate wit "! infection because the pa" - jcol (mouth) cavtiy was r , r v and the patient was al--' i- ?u on the operating table :? - -i-ftKi mouth. And let me - 'tat, unless we deal with an I " en.y case. It i our imperative - to free the mouths of our pa- of pus before we allow them in.ergo a serious operation. The von who is so anxious to operate ' h'i sends his patient to the ' "?ery without a careful examlna- n of the patient's mouth is. in j opinion, guilty of criminal negli- I,:'nce.. N. W. Dental Journal. In other words, this noted medical ru'hority says: There are many of 'hs due to Infection from diseased r'-'iths, being carried in the blood "ie wounds made by the surgeon's 1 lie. Did you ever hear of a pa tient's mouth being freed of disease before he is allowed to go on the op--atlng table? In this connection I T'nuld suggest an investigation of -; awful mouth conditions of scores " peorle who have undergone ser ! : operations. , t In addition to protecting the pa-tl--t against a fatal Infection, it r- ht to be evident to any docfor i':at his patient would have a much letter chance to recover from a ' -irglcal operation If a large part of ' i resisting powers were not needed t' fight a bad mouth Infection at the rruie time. The majority of major surgical op erations are abdominal. According ito our. greatest medical authorities, the conditions that are used as an excuse for these operations are main ly 'due to mouth infection.' If the mouth Infection was corrected first many of these patients would re cover their health with out the hos itltil nnerallon. Sa the only danger of following Dr. Rlcen's suggestion would be that of losing the fee for one or more operations. What have you gained. Mr. Doctor, by removing an ulcer of the stomach canted by mouth Infection, if the mouth Infection Is not also removed? Perhaps 1200. What has your pa tient gained? Is it not perfectly rea sonable to expect this same mouth infection, to cause another nicer or diseased condition In other parts of the body? Ia it any wonder that one operation Is so frequently followed by another, when the cause of the first is not removed? Did you ever stop to think that surgical operations have increased in. number In proportion to the In crease in the number of dead teeth Jeft in people's mouths and number of crowns and bridges attached to teetji? In other words, the dentists of the country are building the In cubators tor, the d.lseaes that- are keeping the surgeons, busy 'while it is being contended thai more hos pitals: would solve the problem of human ills. Give the people all the simple, truths concerning disease, then only our r present hospitals will be adequate. Fortunately; many cf our people are getting light and having the mouth freed of diseases In time to regain health " without surcery. I have a number of patients who have teeir freed from such troubles- as (rheumatism, intestinal disorders, general ill health,' etc.. by curing dlse.'ised gums and extracting infect ed tth. It is a pleasure to refer anrorse to these people. I operate without pain by the latest PcienMflc mot-hods; tbus giving-you better den tistry ' tlian otherwise possible, and making it a pleasure for you to have Lie do your work. ' !- C.

IF: BACK HURTS ' BEGIN ON SALTS Flush Tour Kidneys Occasionally .11 Yu Eat Meat j f - . Regularly. No man or woman, who eats meat J-egularly ran. make a mistake by flushing; the kidneys - occasionally. nays a well-known authority." Meat forms uric acid which clogs the kid ner pores so they sluggishly filter or strain only part of the waste and poisons from the blood, then you get aick. Nearly all rheumatism, head aches, liver trouble, nervousness, constipation, dizziness, sleeplessness, bladder disorders come from slug gish kidneys. The moment you feel a dull ache In the kidneys or your back hurts, or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or attended by a sensation of scaldlnt?. get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any reliable pharmacy and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few dayi and your kidneys mill then act fine. This famous salts la made from the acid of grapes and lemon Juice, combined with lithla and has been used for generations to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to activ ity, also to neutralize the acids in urine so It no longer cause irritation, thus ending bladder disorders. Jad Salts Is Inexpensive and can not injure; makes a delightful ef fervescent Jithia-water drink which all regular meat eaters should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean ami the blood pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney complica tions, , : - .
