HOPE TO T.B. SUFFERERS

Cure Possible," Says FACES YOU KNOW ARE HERE

Doctor

NEW HOPE FOR TUBERCULOSIS SUFFERERS IS BROUGHT BY A FAMOUS GERMAN DOCTOR WHO HAS ACHIEVED REMARKABLE RESULTS BY THE USE OF VITAMIN C, THE VITAL ELEMENT OF GREEN VEGETABLES, SUCH AS CABBAGE AND LETTUCE.

After nearly 30 years of experiment, he got a "clue" when it was noticed that tuberculosis sufferers improved in spring as green vegetables and salads entered their diet after the winter months.

The doctor is Dr. Bernhard Scholz, physician at the Burger Hospital, Frankfurt-on-Main.
