Unscrambled claims on medical devices and pills
A fragmentary paragraph cites The Orat Me detector attributed to Bam HU in the Cincinnati Enquirer claiming it was made from a man’s rib, while promoting Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets as the original Hledle liver pills said to regulate liver and bowels. The text is garbled with mis-spellings and uncertain attribution.
