Bright's Disease.
The largest sum ever paid for a pre-
scription, changed hands in San Fran-
cisco, August 30, 1901. The transfer in-
volved in coin and stock $112,500.00 and
was paid by a party of business men for
a specific for Bright's Disease and Dia-
betes, hitherto incurable diseases.
They commenced the serious investi-
gation of the specific Nov. 15,1900. They
interviewed scores of the cured and tried
it out on its merits by putting over 3
dozen cases on the treatment and watch-
ing them. They also got physicians to
name chronic, in~urable cases, and ad-
ministered it with the physicians for
judges. Up to August 25, 87 per cent. of
the test cases were either well or pro-
gressing favorably.
There being but 13 per cent of failures
the parties were satisfied and closed the
transaction. The proceedings of the in-
vestigating committee and the chemical
reports of the test cases were published
and will be mailed free on application.
