A New View Of Consumption And Its Cure Claims
Dr Clark of Watertown New York presents a view that consumption arises from acids in the blood linked to liver and kidney weakness. He argues acids accumulate when these organs misfunction and attack weak lungs, proposing Warner's Safe Cure as a remedy after other methods fail. The piece cites multiple testimonials and notes Warner’s cure is endorsed by health officials and insurers.
