Influenza and Diphtneria Cure.

Mb Richard Maksh writes : — Influenza will be cured to a certainty in less than a minute by inhaling the fumes of burning sulphur ; the rock sulphur, pounded, is the best, but any will do. Put a few live embers on a tin or shovel, and sprinkle the brimstone on it ; a small teaspoonful is sufficient. This is sudden death to the bacillus. It will be somewhat disagreeable to delicate people, but the stinging sensation in the air passages is only momentary, and anyone should put up with that for the benefit derived. You will keep the doctor's fee in your pocket, and the influenza has departed. Diphtheria will be served the same way, and 1 fully believe that the early stages of consumption would give in to a repetition of this wonderful remedy. ' My own lungs were much affected years ago, and by persevering with this marvellous specific I became right again, and now my lungs are stronger than they were twenty years ago. I want no fee for the him I have given— l do not-even expect thanks ; but I should appreciate the favour, if I have told you the truth, if any would send a line to the Observer stating the effect of the remedy which I have mentioned.
