THE CAUSE OF DISEASE BY L. L. PARRY And Facts Gathered by The Investigating and Publication Committee for Suffering Humanity Price, $3.00 MANSFIELD, OHIO L. L. PARRY 1919 Copyright, 1919 By L. L. PARRY Mrs. L. L. Parry Mr. L. L. Parry PREFACE About six years ago, or in September, 1912, there came to Pittsburgh, Pa., a man from Mansfield, Ohio, with a great knowledge which he had obtained either through inspiration or study, and with a medicine he had prepared from vegetable' compound, which had cured him of blindness, cancer of the liver, and what is called heart trouble. This man's fame, and the great knowledge he had acquired, reached the great steel center long before he had arrived, many persons having seen wonderful cures he had produced in and around his home city in the State of Ohio, where he had restored to health hundreds who had what were pronounced incurable diseases. On the invitation of many hard-working men, employed in the great steel mills in Pittsburgh and surrounding towns, Mr. Leonard L. Parry was finally induced to open an office in Pittsburgh to accommodate these men. Mr. Parry opened a small establishment on Penn Avenue, near Eleventh Street, where he began to treat people pronounced incurable and continued from time to time until December 5, 1917, when he was finally put into prison. Mr. Parry had been arrested before this on the same grounds, but always continued to treat the sick, on a suspended sentence, after a short time. Thousands of people prayed and begged for his medi- cine and appealed to the authorities of Allegheny County and the State to be allowed to continue their treatment, as they could find no other relief. About the first of May, 1916, when Mr. Parry was forbidden to give his treatment to the thousands seeking it, arrangements by his patients were made and a large mass meeting was held at 1125" Penn Avenue. The purpose of this meeting was to defend Mr. Parry and appeal for justice for the wonderful good work he had accomplished for the sick and suffering. This meeting resulted in the organization of the Investigation and Pub- lication Committee for Suffering Humanity to investigate the facts, pub- lish the truth, appeal for justice, and show to the world the great cures, results, and facts obtained by the people who had taken Mr. Parry's treatment. The laws of the Commonwealth now existing on the statute books in the State of Pennsylvania further prohibit Mr. Parry from treating thou- sands of people who seek his medicine. The work of this committee has been independent, self-sustaining, not affiliated with any organization. More than 18,000 cases have been in- vestigated, 7,000 homes visited, 10,000 testimonials and thousands of affidavits secured; thousands of cancers were found to have been removed from people, together with their roots; the blind had been made to see, the lame to walk; glasses had been discarded, as well as crutches and wheel chairs. V VI PREFACE Patients range from babies to men and women more than sixty years old, living in many different States and even European countries. Investi- gations show that Mr. Parry never asked for one penny for his services or treatment at his Penn Avenue establishment in Pittsburgh, and did not discriminate against any man, woman, or child, regardless of birth, creed, color, or religious belief. The patients included men and women in all classes of life and pro- fessions, from the college professor to the laborer-ministers, preachers, priests, lawyers, doctors, business men and women in all walks of life. Thousands of people cured, their friends and former patients have ap- pealed to this committee to publish its investigations, and after careful consideration it has been decided to do so, that the truth with facts be published to the world, that suffering humanity may read what good work this man has accomplished. With a firm stand for justice to all and malice toward none this com- mittee prepares this book, which is true, for publication, and can furnish the facts therein stated, and believes the knowledge contained in this book will make more happiness and better men and women of those who read and study its contents.

Parry was born November 7, 1856, in a log house located about two miles southeast of Lucas, Richland County, Ohio, on a farm of 160 acres known as the Chew farm, his parents being Welsh and Holland Dutch. When he was one year old Mr. Parry's parents moved to West Union, Marshall County, Iowa, but they returned about a year later and settled on the Schrack farm, located near Newville, Richland County, Ohio. When he was five years old his parents 'returned to Lucas, Ohio, and settled there. Mr. Parry entered the Lucas, Ohio, public school at the age of six, and remained there until he was thirteen years old, being an overgrown boy, strong, rugged, and healthy, and known for his happy dis- position and cheerful manner, to all. He attended the Lutheran church. At the age of thirteen Mr. Parry went to work for the Fort Wayne Railroad, building and repairing fences, and later working on the Lucas section, doing all kinds of jobs, until he reached the age of twenty years. Mr. Parry married Miss Melvina Jones, of Lucas, Ohio, on October 17th, 1876. Shortly afterward Mr. and Mrs. Parry moved to Great Bend, Kan- sas, where Mr. Parry took up a Government claim, and lived on this claim for nearly three years. At this time Mrs. Parry's health failed, then Mr. Parry moved to Abeline, Dickinson County, Kansas, where he entered the contracting business, building stone foundations and cellars for numerous kinds of buildings. About 1881 Mr. Parry moved to Kansas City, Mo., and continued following the stone contracting business. In the fall of 1882 Mr. Parry moved to Mansfield, Ohio, and resided on South Diamond Street. In 1884 Mr. Parry built a home at 213 East Second Street and moved into this home on May 1st, where he has resided ever since. Mr. and Mrs. Parry have two children, Hugh, born in 1879, and Mrs. Ethel Motter, born in 1886, both living in the vicinity of Mansfield, Ohio. Mr. Parry followed the stone contracting business for two years, or until 1886, and then entered the house raising, moving, and contracting and building business, which he followed until 1907, when he entered the cement business, manufacturing cement blocks, and patented a cement vault, which business was very extensive through several States. About 1909 Mr. Parry's health began to fail, and his condition became serious. He then sold out almost all of his interests, and entered the coal business in 1912, which business was carried on for several months, when 1 2 his eyesight failed; then he discontinued all active work and sold out his coal business. For over a year Mr. Parry had received a knowledge through inspira- tion and prepared his vegetable compound. During the fall of 1912 he lost his sight, was broken down in health and in great pain continually from liver trouble. After taking his vegetable compound for two weeks his eyesight became somewhat improved, and after taking the medicine for four months he gained in health and strength and passed through the bowels large pieces of cancer, as well as vomiting large pieces. After the cancer had left the liver the heart trouble was cured, and it has never bothered him since January 8, 1913. The eyesight gradually improved, and after taking his medicine for two months he discarded his glasses altogether. At the age of 62 Mr. Parry's health is excellent, he weighing 225, with very good eyesight, and being strong and active. Mr. Parry opened a small office in November, 1912, and started treat- ing people in his home town with his vegetable compound. The results and cures obtained were soon discovered by hundreds of people who had known Mr. Parry for many years. His fame flew like wild fire, spreading all over Richland County and the State of Ohio, soon spreading to Penn- sylvania and several other States; and by December, 1917, Mr. Parry had treated and cured thousands of people from many parts of the civilized world. In the latter part of 1912 Mr. Parry was called to Mount Pleasant, Westmoreland County, Pa., to the home of Mr. Robert Riley, who had suffered with cancer of the abdomen for five years, being given up by twenty-one of the best specialists in Pennsylvania. The day previous to Mr. Parry's arrival at Mr. Riley's home three specialists told Mrs. Riley her husband would not live thirty-six hours. Mr. Parry administered his medicine soon after seeing Mr. Riley; nineteen hours later Mr. Riley had passed enough cancer through his system to fill a gondola hat. This great and marvelous result and the gradual improvement of Mr. Riley, who in two weeks after taking Mr. Parry's medicine was working in his garden, spread all over Westmoreland and surrounding counties. Soon after this, Mr. Parry was compelled to open up an office of two rooms located at 1141 Penn Avenue, Pittsburgh, Pa., to accommodate the many people seeking his treatment. Mr. Parry also opened an office at East Pittsburgh to accommodate the many hundreds of working men in the Turtle Creek valley, spending one day a week there, and one day a week at Washington, Pa., where he treated 450 people a day. In January, 1913, Mr. Parry was treating 33 people a day in Pitts- burgh. The number increased from time to time until May 15, when he treated 450 people a day. By this time hundreds of people had been cured of cancers, and brought these to Mr. Parry's office with their own signatures written on labels on the bottles containing them. Other won- derful cures were being effected, including numerous kinds of ills and bodily diseases, and many whose eyesight had been bad, and even several blind patients gradually improved and saw slightly. On May 15, 1913, Mr. Parry was arrested by the authorities of Alle- gheny County, and was unable to continue treating the many hundreds seeking his medicine for three weeks. During the early part of June Mr. Parry opened an office at 1117 Penn THE CAUSE OF DISEASE Mr. Parry's Home and Family 1. L. L. Parry; 2. Mrs. L. L. Parry; 3. Mr. Hugh Parry; 4.

THE CAUSE OF DISEASE 3 Avenue, in the Arnfeld Building, and he continued treating people there until September, when he moved across Penn Avenue to larger quarters in the old St. James Hotel building, his patients having increased from 450 to 650 a day up to March, 1914; when he moved to 1125 Penn Avenue, where larger quarters were obtained. The increase gradually grew from March, 1914, to December 5, 1917, when Mr. Parry was treating on an average 1,150 people daily. From the latter part of 1912 to December, 1917, Mr. Parry had treated about 40,000 people, having given to his patients some 900,000 glasses of his vegetable compound, which resulted in thousands of people, men, women, and children, being cured of blindness, epilepsy, cancer, goitre, insanity, tuberculosis of different parts, including bone, Bright's disease, diabetes, deafness, aphasia, asthma, colitis, infantile paralysis, varicose veins, hemorrhoids, eczema, adenoids, enlarged tonsils, catarrh, various stomach, liver, and intestinal troubles, and hundreds of minor troubles of the body, appendicitis, also leprosy, gleet, and all manner of pulmonary diseases, numerous blood diseases, gall stones, rupture, tumors of various kinds, birthmarks, idiotic children born deformed, crippled, white swelling, nerv- ousness, insomnia, cancer worms, various worms that infest the human body, blood clots from the brain, pneumonia, numerous diseases of the eye, ear, nose and throat, curvature of the spine, hunchback, deformed feet and limbs, frost bite, snake poisons, hydrophobia, weakness, numerous kinds of female troubles and diseases. Barren women have born children; all manners of complications of diseases have been cured. All of which have been accomplished without the use of the knife or operations, having saved thousands of dollars to the cities, counties, and States where the many thousands of Mr. Perry's patients resided, that otherwise would have be- come a burden and cared for by charity. This wonderful work has been stopped by the State of Pennsylvania simply because Mr. Leonard L. Parry was not licensed to practice medi- cine in the State of Pennsylvania by the Bureau of Medical Education and Licensure of the Commonwealth of the Keystone State. Mr. Parry, better known as "Dad Parry, the Healer," is of a cheerful disposition, lovable and sympathetic, generous, honest, and a great stu- dent of the Bible, being firm, steadfast, and sincere in the great work of preaching the Gospel of God and healing the sick, which he has done for the last seven years, thousands of men, women, and children have been cured and thousands of people have received benefits in health and others financially from Mr. Parry and are now back in their homes and fol- lowing their daily occupations in life, that never contributed one cent toward this great work of Mr. Parry's in following the Golden Rule. Mr. Parry has made a great sacrifice in giving to suffering humanity his advice, knowledge of disease, his vegetable compound, and assistance; he has been humiliated, harassed, abused, suffered and imprisoned, for fol- lowing the dictates of his conscience to assist mankind. Mr. L. L. Parry has proved without a doubt his marvelous results by evidence and facts obtained from his patients and sworn to as required by the laws and the various officials and representatives throughout the United States and other countries, when taking an oath to the truth and their conditions. Which indisputable evidence is hereby presented to the people as a whole, by this committee. 4 THE CAUSE OF DISEASE THE CAUSE OF DISEASE AS EXPOUNDED BY L. L. PARRY In the first creation, God created man and woman in the image of himself, they being pure and without disease and with pure blood; then God gave them the vegetation of the earth and fruit-bearing trees for their food, which was for their meat. Thus the human race should be vegetarians. For thousands of years people lived on this food, and lived according to the laws laid down by God, and they were living happy and lived in Eden. This was the first creation; they were created on the sixth day in the image of God. Thus it came to pass that the people of the first creation began to mul- tiply, and had fair daughters and sons. Of this people of the first crea- tion, living in that time on the face of the earth, chose these fair daugh- ters as their wives and did multiply. Contrary to the laws of God, some were not content with one woman as a wife and helpmate; thus sin had entered the first human race as man in lust of the flesh did commingle with these women during their period of purification, thus contaminating the blood of both man and woman in the first creation. And then these men, who were and had been the sons of God, prior to commingling with women of that period of time, because of their purifica- tion period, became sons of the earth in sin. Having mixed the blood they both were not then of the same creation; as sons and daughters of God in the first creation. This fall from Godly men and women of the first creation was the first sin, and the real cause of disease was contaminating the blood. Genesis 6:3: And the Lord said, "My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh; yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years." This great sin much displeased God: "There were giants on the earth in those days and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown." Genesis 6:5-7: And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. And the Lord said: "I will destroy man that I have created from the face of the earth, both man, and beast, and the creeping tiling, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them." Thus God's wrath was upon the people. And after this great sin these people of the first creation were no longer in the Garden of Eden; they were earthly subjects and sinful people. They were the fallen Angels. Therefore, sin being rampant on the face of the earth, God being much displeased, he created Adam, not of the same material of the first crea- tion, which had become diseased and sinful, but from the clay of the earth, and breathed the breath of life into his nostrils, which is the spirit from God, and put the good and pure blood into his (Adam's) veins, which is the soul. Thus Adam became the first man of the second creation and was made Mr. Parry and Employees 1. A. L. Klaus, Bookkeeper; 2. John Joyce, Doorkeeper; 3. George Hullinger, Assistant to Mr. Parry; 4.

Then God saw it was not well for Adam to be alone, and he created a woman out of Adam's rib, which made Eve, the third creation without sin. The first creation was in the image of God; the second was made from the earth; Eve, the third creation, was not born, but was made from a rib. Therefore Adam and Eve, being our first earthly parents, were pure and without sin. Our parents, who were mortals, being made and created from the earth, did not live in the Garden of Eden, as only the sons and daughters of God could live in Eden. God made Adam and created Eve to repeople the earth, thus to prove His creation, as the first creation had fallen from the heavenly condition to that of the earthly condition. Therefore, Adam and Eve, who are generally supposed to have lived in Eden, did not, as Eden is a heavenly condition, and God, when He made Adam and created Eve, put before them the right and wrong, the good and bad, the garden, which is woman, and the tree of life, because woman brings life into the world. Eve was beguiled by the devil, who was a man of the first creation, a fallen Angel, through lust of the flesh committed sin, and contaminated Eve's blood, and Eve conceived and brought forth a child of the devil, the serpent, Cain's father, who was one of the sons of the first creation. Eve being beguiled by the devil during her purification, when concep- tion took place, then she had the knowledge of the Gods, which was the devil's promise. Eve, to hide her guilt, went to Adam, and did offer him the fruit from the tree, and he too did eat during her purification. The birth of our parents' first child, Cain, was not of the Lord, but of the devil. This was to take place, to prove God's creation. God did not tell our parents to replenish the earth, but He did tell the sons and daughters of God of the first creation to create and multiply. This, therefore, was and is the cause of disease. It continued so from the time of the fall of Eve, and up to the time of Noah, when sin became so great that God cleaned all the wickedness from the earth by the flood; the eight souls that were left were the purest blooded people of that time; they peopled the earth again with a better class of people, and that con- tinued until the time of Christ. But at the time of Christ the people of the different nations were of such a mixture, and the blood was so bad, that they, instead of listening to the truth that Christ told them, crucified him because he was the only pure blooded person living, and the only one who understood the true laws of God. After the crucifixion of Christ the holy wars broke out and lasted thirty years. At that time two-thirds of the people of the earth were extermi- nated, the best-blooded people were left. Then the mixture of nations caused the increase in the bad blood in the people which put them in the same condition as they were at the time of Christ. War in Europe is now raging, and famine is over the whole earth, thus pestilence exists in the land, and it is hard to find many persons with natural red cheeks, with health and pure minds in the whole earth to-day. 6 THE CAUSE OF DISEASE CONSIDERING THE POPULATION AT WAR Many of our young people of to-day are the color of wax; our middle- aged people have dark rings around their eyes; our old people are the color of clay. Their blood has turned to water, their bodies are diseased, and so are their minds. The bad blood that settles in the body, that makes disease, also settles on the mind in the same degree that it is in the body. Never in the history of the world were there as many glasses worn by the people as there are to-day. Never were there as many blind people, and so many children born blind, and so many children born deformed as there are at the present time. The cause of disease is this: The mother gives the child its body; that body is in the same health when it comes into the world as that of its mother's. A mother having any disease at the birth of her offspring, the child will also be diseased to a certain extent. The body of the child is built with blood. The mother cannot give her child better blood than she has herself. WHERE DISEASE STARTS IN THE BODY The Liver.-The liver is the filter of the human system. The hlood that is taken from the food as eaten is thrown into the heart, which dis- tributes this blood through the body, through its pumping condition; then it passes through the liver, which filters the blood. The corruption is thrown through the proper ducts and carried to the gall bladder; from the gall bladder there are four gall ducts, two passing down the back by the kidneys, emptying into the bladder, one going to the intestine that goes out from the stomach, the other passing direct into the stomach; the duct that passes into the intestines at the outlet of the stomach is the one that God intended to be used. At the fall of Eve God put the curse upon the world, and closed up the duct that runs into the intestines, which duct lies on the right side of the human system, just back of the lung on the right side, which from the time of Eve to to-day has mystified the human race as to why this duct, or pipe as it is generally called, has been closed in the human system. The gall duct that runs direct into the stomach throws the gall, or the bitterness that has been separated from the blood, into the stomach. When this is in the stomach the gastric juices will not flow to digest the food. It is very strong, so strong that it will take the hide from one's hand. When the gastric juice does not flow, the food that is taken will sour, which causes sickness of the stomach, and a dizziness in the brain, from the fact that the nerve from the stomach reaches the brain. The effect is vomiting sour and bitter gall from the stomach; the gall is so strong that it burns the stomach and causes millions of stomach cancers. The impurities of the blood thrown from the liver, or the human screen, are thrown into the gall bladder, thus forming what is better known as gall stones, a greenish substance that is the consistency of putty. At times these gall stones will pass from the gall bladder, and down into the gall duct that runs into the bladder, causing great pain as they pass THE CAUSE OF DISEASE 7 through the gall duct, which is only about the size of a goose quill; some of these which pass through this gall duct are as large as a good-sized bean. This causes what is commonly known as pleurisy, on the left side, but if passing down on the right side it is generally called appendicitis. If these stones lodge in these gall ducts, it gives the patient a great deal of pain, until the flesh becomes used to it; then there is no more pain, until another gall stone, passing through the duct, lodges against the one that has already lodged there. It is known that these gall stones will lodge in the ducts, until they become like one solid mass, four inches long, three-fourths of an inch thick, and over an inch wide. When this happens a patient has no power in that side, the side be- coming very weak and losing the proper use of the limb on that side, and causes a great deal of nervousness. This is the cause of appendicitis. The appendix is on the end of the colon bowel, which is a complicated bowel, that needs lubricating to perform its work. The appendix is filled with a yellowish substance, which is oil that has been distilled in the body. At times the oil is thrown from the appendix into the bowel, to give its proper lubricating so that it can perform its function. If there is no oil in the appendix, the bowels will not work properly, and it requires a physic to flush the bowels. A person who has had the appendix removed by operation will have to take from one to three cathartics a day to keep the body in a natural condition. The average life of a person who has had the appendix removed is ten years. God at the creation never intended that any person should have his appendix removed. The appendix is the lubricator to the bowels. It is as essential to the human body as any other particular organ to one's anatomy. WHAT ARE FUNCTIONS OF THE APPENDIX WHAT IS THE CAUSE OF CONSUMPTION, KNOWN AS THE WHITE PLAGUE? This great ravaging disease, which is nothing more than tuberculosis of the lungs, is caused by an enlarged liver. If the liver cannot throw off the impurities from the blood, the waste matter remains in the liver and causes the liver to enlarge and get hard. And it presses against the lungs, which are very soft and fluffy, causing the lungs to become irritated, which produces a cough; as the cough becomes stronger, the lungs be- come sore, and in time this causes considerable soreness and corruption. The longer this stands, the cough becomes more severe, and more sore- ness is the result, producing in time a poisonous matter, which eats through the tubes of the lungs, after which there is absolutely no remedy or help to one suffering from such a disease. This prevents the air from passing in a natural way to the bottom of the lung, as all corruption from the lungs must be thrown out of them by air power. Science and investi- gation prove that after the death of one who suffered from consumption or tuberculosis the liver will have enlarged to such an extent that it takes 8 THE CAUSE OF DISEASE the place of both the liver and the lungs. Thus the liver will be of a yellowish color and hard, which in a healthy condition is brown and soft. WHAT CAUSES PNEUMONIA Pneumonia is caused by a weak condition of the blood, and it settles in the lungs, and is usually brought on or contracted by exposure or catching cold in the change of the weather. This great disease, which has caused death to millions, can be cured if taken in time, by using proper methods. Isaiah 10:23; Isaiah 28:22: Consumption-The act of consuming by use, waste, dissipation, and so forth, decay, destruction-or better known as Cancer. There are fifty-two different kinds of cancers that exist in the human body. This condition exists in all humans bodies, in their blood. A bruise, injury, or weakness in one's body is liable to cause cancer in that part of the human system, as the bad blood settles at that particular point, and must be cleansed from one's system to regain the former health. In time, as this condition continues, the roots reach for more bad blood, and will spread throughout the entire system, the roots perforating the bowels, which causes death. As these roots eat through the vital organ, no remedy is known or can be found that will retain life thereafter. It is absolutely impossible to remove cancer roots from human bodies by an operation or by the use of a knife. Cancers taken in their early stages, before the roots have penetrated the vital organs, can be cured both root and branch, without the use of a knife, going to a hospital or undergoing an operation; cancers can be permanently cured and will never return, if the proper methods provided by Almighty God are used in their proper manner. WHAT CAUSES CANCERS LIVER CANCER CAUSES THE FOLLOWING THIRTEEN RAVISHING DISEASES 1. Tuberculosis. 2. Cancer of the bowels. 3. Bright's disease. 4. Stomach troubles. 5. Inflammation of the bowels. 6. Eczema. 7. Vari- cose veins. 8. Sugar diabetes. 9. Goitre. 10. Heart trouble. II. Numerous bowel troubles. 12. Numerous skin diseases. 13. All tumors. At times persons become feverish and the face very much flushed. These become subject to quick chills, and at times are very sick, little knowing the cause of their sickness; they are very irritable, at times very weak, the back is very sore, the person having but very little ambition; at times a mucous matter will pass through the bowels, being of a yellowish color, at other times being a dark brown, after which the person will become more active and have more ambition, and feel much better for a short time. SYMPTOMS OF LIVER CANCER Catarrh is caused by impure blood settling on the brain above the right or left eye, which is nothing more than cancer. CATARRH, AND WHAT CAUSES IT THE CAUSE OF DISEASE 9 THE FOLLOWING DISEASES ARE CAUSED BY CATARRH 1. Blindness. 2. Insanity. 3. Paralysis. 4. Spinal meningitis. 5. Adenoids of the nose. 6. Enlarged tonsils. 7. Throat troubles. 8. Bron- chitis. 9. Deafness. 10. Nervousness. 11. Sleeplessness. 12. Epilepsy. 13. Idiocy. 14. Curvature of the spine. 15. Diphtheria. 16. Scarlet fever. 17. Hunchback. 18. Deformity. 19. Stomach trouble. 20. Bowel trouble. 21. Piles. 22. Drunkenness. 23. Immorality. 24. Dis- honesty. 25. Murder. 26. Weak eyes. 27. Baldness. WHAT THE BRAIN IS The brain is the controlling element of the entire body, consisting of about 3,000,000 brain cells; each cell controls certain things in the human body. If the roots from catarrh press a brain cell it affects that brain cell, and causes the person to become insane on the subject which that brain cell controls. For instance, when a certain brain cell controlling a part of a person's body is affected by pressure of the roots from catarrh, the part of the body that is controlled by that certain brain cell will become paralyzed. SHOULD SICK PEOPLE BE PUT UPON A FOOD DIET? Genesis 1:29: Absolutely NO. The sick need food to give them strength. They should be given the kind of food they desire, so that the blood which builds, the body may receive the nourishment required to build that certain part of the body which demands it, as the blood creates the desire for the certain thing that is lacking and which is essential to keep up the body. WHAT FOOD THE HUMAN SYSTEM REQUIRES The brain requires, certain foods, nuts, and oils to perform its functions. The lungs require gelatine matter, such as the jelly in pigs' feet, oysters, or other gelatine matter. The liver requires bitter, such as lettuce, dan- delion, or anything of a vegetable growth that contains bitterness. The flesh calls for sweets, such as sugars, molasses, candies, syrups, etc. The stomach calls for sour, such as pickles, fruits, berries, oranges, apples, and plums. WHAT SHALL TAKE PLACE IN THE LAST DAYS Isaiah 29:18; Isaiah, 32:4; Isaiah, 35:5, 6; Joel 3:21; Daniel 11:35; Daniel 12:4; Daniel 12:10; Peter 2:21, 22, 23; Peter 4:1. Are the people living in the days of sin, disease, and prophecies being fulfilled? Do you believe we are? Esdras 12:13. Six hundred and twenty-three years before the birth of Christ, or two thousand five hundred and forty-one years ago, Esdras through vision and inspiration prophesied and wrote: A great kingdom will rise with mighty power, and feared by all nations of the earth. 10 THE CAUSE OF DISEASE Do we realize we are living in a land of sin and disease, whereby, through knowledge and inspiration, these very words of Esdras have been proved to the people, that the sick and suffering may find relief and fol- low the footsteps of the Nazarene? Esdras 12:14. Does mankind stop to realize that the whole world to-day is in a preparatory state for the second coming of Christ? Wars, pestilence, and famine exist in these days in all lands. Esdras 13:31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38. At the time of the first coming of Christ the world was simply a hothouse of sin; the sin was not purged from the earth until after the crucifixion of Christ, during the holy wars, which lasted thirty years. At the second coming of Christ the sin will be purged from the earth before He comes; when He comes He will find His chosen people with pure blood and without sin. Does mankind in general, with reasoning powers realize, according to prophecies, sacred literature, history, nature, and natural conditions, that the world in these great times is facing these truths? Nahum 2: 2, 3, 4. Does the contamination of blood, or blood clot on the brain, make men think and believe that they are greater than God, that they are fit and powerful enough to rule the whole world, and ignore the teachings of Christ to love thy neighbor as thyself ? IMMORALITY IS THE GREATEST SIN OF ALL The first and greatest sin in the world was the fall of Eve. It was the first planting of the first seed of sin, being the root of all evil. From the fact that her blood was contaminated by the blood of the devil, the tree grew slowly at first, and the small branches were the small sins, and the tree has spread until it covers the whole earth. It is the cause of murder, licentiousness, theft, lying, false swearing, deceit, and the filling of our public institutions, hospitals and sanitariums, with insane, blind, epileptics, murderers, liars, thieves, thugs, drunkards and deformed people. HOW TO LIVE CLEAN LIVES, BE HAPPY AND CONTENTED The greatest wisdom ever given to mankind to live by, and die by, was in rules that have never been equaled or written by any other man or set of men. They were written by Moses the prophet on Mount Sinai, three thousand four hundred and eight years ago, being the greatest wisdom and knowledge ever given to mortal man. Exodus 20:3-18. CAN THE UNHEALTHY LIVE CLEAN LIVES? St. Luke 9:2. Jesus so instructed His disciples that God is no respecter of persons. Our Creator loves all souls following the footsteps and teach- ings of Christ. THE CAUSE OF DISEASE 11 WHO HAS THE RIGHT TO HEAL THE SICK? Scriptural references.-And the leaves of the trees shall heal the na- tions. Is this the gift of God to one class of people, or is it for the general use of all the people? Even animals, who are not as intelligent as the human race, have a knowledge when sick that certain vegetation will cure them, and they seek and find it. While mortal beings seem to ignore the wisdom and knowledge of Almighty God as set before them, in sacred literature and natural conditions throughout the world. Isaiah told Hezekiah seven hundred and thirteen years before the birth of Christ to lay a lump of figs as a plaster on the boil and he should recover. Isaiah 38:21. If this were true then, why not to-day? Timothy, who was sick, sought the advice of Paul, who advised him to take a little wine for his stomach's sake. Is this not also true to-day? Even the good Samaritan poured wine and oil in the wounds of a traveler to Jericho who had been waylaid, robbed and left for dead; the traveler regained his health. Why is oil poured on a burn to soothe pain? Daniel 11:35: And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them white, even to the time of the end; because it is yet for a time appointed. Is this not gospel truth to-day? Many people through lack of good blood and not receiving the proper seeds and herbs and vegetations to cleanse their blood, are filling untimely graves. WHAT HAS CAUSED THE BLIND TO SEE AND UNCLEAN TO BE MADE WHOLE? For seven years people have received treatment or a medicine made as a vegetable compound, containing thirteen different ingredients, as the Bible speaks of, that grow abundantly all over the earth. People should read and inquire from persons whose names are mentioned in this pub- lication. God's wisdom for health and cleanliness is supreme. More peo- ple die from what is known as the thirteen ravishing diseases than any other, which start in the liver. Yet God's word tells us how to be healthy and names these thirteen vegetations abundantly. 2 Timothy 3:1: This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. Are we not in perilous times? is not the human race in more disease than was ever known in history? Does any man do wrong by healing the sick? Matthew 4:23; 6:3, 5, 11, 14, 15, 16.

Parry, through his treatment for their ills, is hereby published and submitted to the people of the world, as gathered by the Investigation and Publication Committee for Suffering Humanity. is parry's medicine pure? The United States Government, through the Department of Agricul- ture, by Secretary Houston, on June 21, 1913, issued a certificate to Mr. L. L. Parry, residing at 213 East Second Street, Mansfield, Ohio, that his vegetable compound complied with the pure food law of the Federal Government, and the compound received a serial number 51780, and was registered and entered as such on the books of that department. Mr. Parry, in an interview for publication by a committee, was asked the following questions: Mr. Parry, doctors claim that cancer is incurable. What is your opinion ? A.-My opinion is that all cancers can be cured if taken in time. THE CAUSE OF DISEASE 13 Q.-About how many cancers have you removed, from people's bodies with your treatment? A.-More than twelve thousand. Q.-What kind of cancers have you cured? A.-We have cured all kinds of cancers that people were afflicted with as they came to us. Q.-Can inward cancers of the body be cured? A.-Yes, if taken in time and treated properly. Q.-Why do people suffer so terribly with cancer? A.-Cancer grows like a tree. The roots reach through the body, to get the bad blood; that is what a cancer is composed of. Each root has to make its way through the flesh, and as each individual root forces its way through the flesh, it causes soreness in the flesh which is very painful to the patient. Q.-Are there many different kinds of cancers? A.-There are fifty-two different kinds of cancers that grow in the human body. Q.-Does cancer develop fast? A.-In some cases they develop very fast. Q.-Have you ever known a cancer to exist and remain dormant? A.-I have known cancers to exist in a lump form, and not develop into an eating or active sore cancer for thirty years. Q.-Does cancer exist in children to any extent? A.-Yes, I have treated hundreds of children that had cancer, from the age of seven weeks and upward. Q.-What do you think is the cause of cancer in babies and children? A.-The child inherits the blood from its mother. Q.-Why does cancer develop on the external parts of the human body? A.-It comes from the bruise of the flesh; the bruise puts the flesh in such a condition that the bad blood can settle at that particular spot. Q.-Is there any certain food which is eaten, that would cause cancer? A.-Most decidedly No. Q.-Is cancer a germ disease? A.-Absolutely No. Q.-Is there any danger of infection by one nursing a cancer patient? A.-There is no danger. As cancer develops from the blood from the patient's own body. Q.-Can cancer be cured by an operation? A.-Can a watch be fixed by taking out a wheel? Q.-Can the blind be restored to sight? A.-Yes, in certain cases. Where no operation has been performed. Q.-Persons losing their sight, naturally, can they be cured? A.-In nearly every case. Q.-Can rheumatism be cured? A.-Yes, but much sooner in the young. Q.-Can the insane be cured, and restored to their reason? A.-Without any shadow of a doubt. Q.-Is paralysis curable? A.-Yes. Q.-Is there any difference between infantile paralysis and paralysis in an adult? 14 THE CAUSE OF DISEASE A.-They are all the same. Q.-Can children born deformed be treated to grow normal? A.-Yes, in a majority of cases. HAS MR. PARRY DONE ANYTHING WRONG IN THE EYES OF GOD? Are the above questions by the Committee, and Mr. Parry's answers to them substantiated by absolute facts, from people treated by Mr. Parry? After carefully reading the affidavits, the question is left to the reader to form his own judgment, after writing to the patients cured or assisted when they could find no other relief than through the Parry treatment.

Matthew 9:8: "But when the multitudes saw it, they marveled, and Glorified God, which had given such power unto men." People will say: "Surely Mr. Parry cannot be classed as was the Nazarene." No, no, indeed. The last two words speak for themselves: "Unto men." Almighty God rules the heaven and earth. If God in His infinite wisdom and mercy gave Christ and other men power on earth or knowledge whereby they were to preach His gospel and heal the sick thousands of years ago, what is to prevent Him from inspiring men of the present time to do likewise? Great men, mighty and wise, live on the earth to-day, just the same as did men of learning in Greece and Persia centuries ago. God is no re- specter of persons; He loves all souls and mortal beings who live accord- ing to the laws of God, and do His will. If Mr. Parry has not been inspired from unseen sources to heal the sick and restore the blind, where does he get this great knowledge, which is indisputable? The same results have not been produced by any men or set of men, society or organization, during many generations. Edison is a great inventor; Morse was laughed at when he invented the telegraph; Ford was looked upon as a foolish boy years ago. To-day these and thousands of other men, through inspiration or knowledge acquired from some source, are a great blessing to mankind. Take, for instance, the great "Jenney coupler" used on all railroads to- day; what a great inspiration and benefit came to the man who invented .and patented the iron hook that made this possible, and saved thousands of lives, arms and hands from being crushed, and brought cheer into many homes. God inspires men in some manner to invent and make articles for the betterment of mankind when certain articles are needed for the progress, happiness, and convenience of the human race on this earth. The cities were becoming overcrowded with people; man invented the electric car that human beings could live in the suburbs and have quick transportation to and from the congested centers and live in sunshine and pure air; it relieved the great burden from the horse. The automobile was invented and has been a great blessing to humanity, as the railroads and electric lines could not furnish the necessary trans- portation to the thousands who travel far and near and live in remote places where no railroad or electric transportation is available. Civilization has outgrown the old methods. The people to-day are better educated than their ancestors have been for thousands of years, and no man can advance in education, science, or art without God's help in some manner. Tennyson, the great poet, wrote: "The man who can make a better article than his neighbor, write a better book, do something better than another, although he live in a forest the people will beat a path to his door." How about Mr. Parry with over 40,000 people seeking him, and singling him out as a doctor to cure them among hundreds of thousands THE CAUSE OF DISEASE 17 of men of education, learning, and letters who have failed to restore these people to health? Can a man lead the life of a Christian, and be a free citizen of this great country of liberty and freedom, the United States, wherein he was born and raised and looked upon as a blessing to suffering humanity, a good citizen, a home builder, a father, a husband, a true son and a suc- cessful business man, who has worked day and night for seven years to cure the sick and suffering, as he saw his duty toward his brother? During this time Mr. Parry has spent $47,000 in costs, fees, and other charges to courts and lawyers simply to prove what he has done-cure the sick in the State of Pennsylvania. Yet the Constitution of the United States plainly reads in Amendments to the Constitution Article one, as follows: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech; or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assem- ble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." SUFFERING HUMANITY APPEALS FOB JUSTICE AND RELIEF On May 8, 1916, several hundred of Mr. Parry's patients who were posi- tive a great injustice was being done, not only to them, but to Mr. Parry as well, as this man was curing them of ills of their bodies as no other man could do to give them relief, appointed a committee consisting of Mr. William Kroegher, aged 82, a highly respected citizen of Pittsburgh, a great inventor and a man known all over the United States for his won- derful inventions, together with Rev. W. C. Stockton of Pittsburgh, and W. F. Craig, Jr., all residents, property owners, and citizens of Pitts- burgh and Allegheny County, taxpayers selected to secure a permit from the city of Pittsburgh. They called upon Mr. Hubbard, Director of Public Safety, and after explaining their mission to hold a mass meeting as hundreds of citizens duly and lawfully had a great grievance and desired peacefully to assemble and petition the government for a redress of griev- ances. They were promised the permit, and these men signed an applica- tion for i,t, and were told to return three hours later, when the permit would be granted by the Department of Public Safety. Upon returning these men were unable either to secure the permit or even to find out any reason why it was not granted after going to several departments. On the advice of two prominent jurists of the city these men were instructed to hold the meeting anyway, which was done, when the authori- ties realized that thousands of people were not to be set aside by in- fluence or politicians when on a peaceful mission, police protection was furnished, and 1,000 men and women with uplifted hands before God, as their judge, did affirm Mr. Parry had cured many of them and benefited hundreds who were unable to find any other relief. Great indignation was aroused, as hundreds of men and women who had furnished Mr. Parry with personal gifts, as an appreciation of his kindness and help to them, and thousands of diseases of numerous kinds which had been removed from their bodies were set up as evidence of the wonderful results of his medicine, placed in sanitary bottles and labeled, 18 THE CAUSE OF DISEASE were removed without a warrant by officers from Mr. Parry's establish- ment in their presence. Article IV of the Constitution of the United States as amended reads: "The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized." Should the people suffer, when humanity in distress asks for justice when a law unjustly works to their detriment? THE SICK AND SUFFERING IGNORED A law on the statute book of Pennsylvania, approved by Governor Tener on July 25, 1913, as number 743, authorizes the Commonwealth of Penn- sylvania, through the Bureau of Medical Education and Licensure, to grant a special license to a person with a special knowledge of medicine, whereby it can be proved it would be a blessing to humanity. All require- ments of this law were complied with and a request was presented in writing to the Bureau of Medical Education and Licensure by a com- mittee of three men on May 24, 1916, consisting of Mr. W. W. Weigemann, an undertaker of Avella, Washington County; Mr. Edward Beiber, an engineer of Pittsburgh; and Mr. W. F. Craig, Jr., a journalist of Wilkins- burg, Allegheny County, who, representing thousands of men, women, and children, citizens of Pennsylvania, were sent to Harrisburg with a peti- tion signed by 1,800 people, and an abundance of facts, that Mr. Parry was their benefactor, and asked for a hearing for Mr. Parry to secure a special license that he might continue treating these citizens of Pennsyl- vania. This application was presented to the department. However, all the pleadings of these citizens of Pennsylvania were ignored. Thus the people have to suffer on account of a law, classed by some of the best lawyers and judges in Allegheny County as unreasonable, unjust, and some of the wording as ridiculous. For instance, if a mother in this State gives her child Brown's mixture for a cold, she is breaking the law, and is subject to a fine and* imprison- ment. The committee was granted a hearing of one hour and fifteen minutes by Mr. James C. Deininger, executive clerk of the Governor, who informed the committee he represented the Governor and would submit the applica- tion for a special license, with the petition and facts, to the Hon. Mar- tin G. Brumbaugh just as soon as the Governor returned, he being then absent from Harrisburg, and would have the matter thoroughly looked into, investigated, and advise the committee within a short time. The committee officially never heard from the department, the Governor, or Mr. Deininger. Thus the people had to suffer, because Mr. Parry was not a licensed doctor, and did not have a diploma, although he was curing the people and was a blessing to suffering humanity. Following is a copy of the letter presented to the Bureau of Medical Education and Licensure at Harrisburg by the committee. THE CAUSE OF DISEASE 19 "Copy." Pittsburgh, Pa., May 24, 1916. To the Pennsylvania : BUREAU OF MEDICAL EDUCATION : Harrisburg. AND LICENSURE, Gentlemen:- We hereby make application, and ask for a SPECIAL LICENSE for Mr. Leonard L. Parry, a resident of Ohio, age 59, residing at 213 East Second St., Mansfield, Ohio, to give his medicine, as is registered with a serial number 51780, which was issued June 21st, 1913, by the United States Government, under the Department of Agriculture, the same being signed by Secretary D. F. Houston, to the people asking for this medi- cine at 1125 Penn Ave., Pittsburgh, Pa., where Mr. Leonard L. Parry has administered to suffering humanity for nearly four years. We firmly believe, and have been advised that the Bureau, according to Law 743, approved by Governor Ten er July 25 th, 1913, has the authority to grant a special license, in a special case such as this, whereby it is proven by facts and evidence, to a person qualified, worthy, and deserving, further, who has been, and is, relieving suffering humanity. In seeking for this special license, we assert all medicine given to the people asking for it, is handed to them in a glass, from the hands of Mr. Leonard L. Parry personally. This medicine, for which we ask a special license, for Mr. Leonard L. Parry to administer to the sick, contains roots, herbs, nuts, seeds, and oils all of which are pure and non-poisonous, is for the purification of the blood, and is given gratis, no fee whatsoever is charged. Evidence and facts herewith submitted prove thousands of people all over this commonwealth have been absolutely cured, others greatly bene- fited in health, while many to-day who have taken this medicine for some time, and their systems now making vast changes, will die if not per- mitted to continue receiving this medicine until they are cured. We further desire to say, in reference to asking for this special Medical license for Mr. Leonard L. Parry, to give his medicine to the people asking for it, that Mr. Parry is saving this State, Allegheny County, and the city of Pittsburgh many thousands of dollars every year, as many of the people receiving this medicine would otherwise become objects of charity. Yours for suffering Humanity, W. F. Craig, Jr., 902 Ramsey Ave., Wilkinsburg, Pa. Edward Beiber, 1302 Kelton Ave., Pittsburgh, Pa. W. W. Wiegemann, Avella, Pa. Committee. Note: Evidence consisted of 63 sheets, signatures 1,800 names, 56 affi- davits, numerous pictures and 5,000 letters of testimonial. "Latter not accepted," as only sworn testimony be considered, was informed by Mr„ Deininger, Chief Clerk to Governor M. G. Brumbaugh. WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THE WORD "DOCTOR"? In Webster's dictionary one will find these words: "A teacher, one skilled in a profession, or branch of knowledge, a learned man. By medicine, life may be prolonged, yet death will seize the doctor too." Is Mr. Parry a teacher of God's Gospel? 20 THE CAUSE OF DISEASE Has he proved he is skilled in the profession of medicine? "Or branch of knowledge." "His vegetable compound." "By curing Cancer, and restoring the blind." Is he a learned man? Is Mr. Parry a lawbreaker in the sight of God? Mr. Parry holds a certificate to manufacture a pure medicine by the United States Govern- ment, which is a blessing to suffering humanity, and this committee stands ready to prove it. Why then does not selfish interest stand aside ? Three years ago, in August, 1916, Mr. and Mrs. Parry bought a farm consisting of 250 acres of fine farm land, located seven miles east of Mans- field, Ohio, on the Southwestern Electric Railway Co. line, running from Mansfield to Cleveland, known as the old Mathews farm, upon which Mr. and Mrs. Parry made many improvements, erecting two modern houses on the land, with a firm purpose and intention of establishing a home for industrial and worthy women of Pennsylvania and Ohio who would be given a home, until they became well and strong. Several large buildings consisting of barns, poultry houses, workshops, pig pens, and other modern buildings were built, ample room and quar- ters were provided for at least fifty women, fruit trees were planted, over 70 acres of land cleared, modern machinery installed, and quarters were erected, large dining and sewing rooms, porches, and rest rooms set aside. Miles of modern fence was erected, wells were dug and piped to furnish running pure water and all modern conveniences were arranged for the comfort of the women. Mr. Parry being forbidden by the laws of Pennsylvania to continue treating women of Pennsylvania and having spent nearly 50,000 to prove his knowledge and philanthropic purpose, has for a time upset plans for this industrial home for women. To-day the above mentioned ground is being used to raise fruit, vege- tables, grain, poultry, and food for our country. The beautiful lawns as laid out and fields are covered with timothy hay and other farm crops. Mr. Parry's son has charge of the farm and the other buildings are being used by the different farm hands. What a shame such good intentions have all been upset, and these worthy women unable to make their way in this world, when through generosity this man's great offer was not thoroughly investigated and accepted. Therefore humanity suffers to-day, all because Mr. Parry was following the Golden Rule, and healing the sick. L. L. PARRY'S PHILANTHROPIC PURPOSE AN OPEN LETTER TO SUFFERING HUMANITY The Investigation and Publication Committee for Suffering Humanity, which was organized on May 8, 1916, at a mass meeting held in Pitts- burgh, to investigate and publish the truth regarding Mr. Leonard L. Parry's work among the sick and suffering, has completed its investiga- tions, and hereby submits its findings to the public, with justice to all and malice to none. We actually find wonderful results from this man's treatment, and the use of his medicine, and invite a thorough investigation by any person, organization, or society; above all, by the United States Government. THE CAUSE OF DISEASE 21 We are willing at any time to furnish hundreds of affidavits, testi- monials, letters and personal testimony of people who have been cured of blindness, cancer, and numerous other diseases, including tuberculosis, spinal meningitis, and insanity. Space will not permit the publication of all of the affidavits, but we herewith submit a few, that suffering humanity may know what great work this man has done, in curing and relieving the sick and distressed. The original affidavits and all investigations are in the hands of the committee and can be seen at any time. We desire to thank all who have assisted in the gathering of these truths, that facts could be published, showing to the world what marvelous cures Mr. Leonard L. Parry, of Mansfield, Ohio, has to his credit as a God fearing man. W. F. Craig, Jr., Chairman. Pittsburgh, Pa., Aug. 13, 1917. Before me, the subscriber, a Notary Public, in and for the said County and State, personally appeared George B. Kline, M. D., of 1125 Penn Avenue, Pittsburgh, Pa., who, being duly sworn according to law, doth depose and say, that I am a regular graduate of the College of Physicians and Surgeons, Baltimore, Md., class of 1887, and am registered in Penn- sylvania. I have had charge of 1125 Penn Avenue, Pittsburgh, Pa., since June 19, 1916. Since this date I have had over 7,500 patients for whom I have prescribed what is called the Parry medicines, and these people have come without advertisement, other than what the patients said and did. I have refused to treat none on account of funds. The variety of cases treated is as wide as the diseases met in this cli- mate, of a chronic nature. The cures include blindness, epilepsy, cancer, goitre, insanity, tuber- culosis of different parts, including bone, Bright's, diabetes, deafness, aphasia, asthma, colitis, infantile paralysis, varicose veins, hemorrhoids, eczema, adenoids, enlarged tonsils, catarrh, various stomach, liver, and in- testinal troubles, and hundreds of minor troubles, and this too after per- haps 75 per cent have tried and found no relief elsewhere, yet in spite of this, relief and cures are had in about 90 per cent of the patients. True, there have been a few deaths where the patients did not come soon enough or the treatment had been interrupted, but even the friends of such with scarcely an exception have said the medicines had prolonged life and greatly lessened the suffering. To realize in a measure what the Parry medicines have done and are doing it is necessary to see and talk with a few of the thousands of pa- tients, and to know that the vast majority of them had been invalids with- out hope from any other treatment, condemned to death or a lingering illness with its aches and pains. Only then one begins to have a faint conception of what has been done and is being done. When the truth is known, it can be seen that almost innumerable breadwinners and mothers have been restored to their families, and crip- pled children with life ahead have been cured that society has been saved hundreds of lives and thousands of dollars. To deny the continued use of the Parry medicines, and the patients 22 THE CAUSE OF DISEASE Mr. Parry's encouragement, is to condemn thousands to a life without hope and hundreds to an untimely grave. Who would take such a re- sponsibility, when it can be avoided? We ask investigation. Geo. B. Kline, 340 Amber St. E., E. Pittsburgh, Pa.

The undersigned was afflicted with cystitis and phyarea for about 15 years. I sought the assistance of doctors while in Philadelphia six years ago, I also doctored here in Pittsburgh and in Verona without apparent relief. Aftei- taking Mr. Parry's medicine for about nine months I have already experienced great relief. It is my intention to continue with his medicine until a perfect cure is obtained. The reason that it is a slow cure may be due to my advanced age of 61 years. A. M. Dahl. P. 0. Box 425, Verona, Pa. Sworn and subscribed to this 16th day of August, 1917. R. L.

I was operated on about one year before that time. I got a bit of steel in my right eye, I lost that eye, after suffering fourteen months the left eye was operated on. I was very near blind. This steel in my right eye, it seems, poisoned my whole system. I was operated on for appendicitis and stomach trouble; my stomach was pumped out two or three times. After the doctor told me there was nothing in my stomach to digest food, I said "Doctor, it is a bad lookout THE CAUSE OF DISEASE 23 for me." He said yes. Before Mr. Parry treated me, I could hardly use any kind of nourishment, but now: Oh my, I can eat anything. I can digest any kind of food, after six months' treatment. Mr. Parry took pity on me, and gave me medicine. I went to work, and I am working evei- since. I want to inform you that Mr. Parry is my best friend. I told Mr. Parry how poor I was, with six small children. For three years I did not earn one dollar. His answer was: "Come, come trust in God, and His dear Son." God bless Mr. Parry!

I also attended Dr. Nickel of Belle-Vernon for a long time. None of them did me the least good. Rather I got worse as time went on. They all in turn told me I had gall stones and strongly advised an operation as the only cure. In four months I lost forty pounds in weight; besides, the pain I suffered was awful and I did look very bad indeed. I was then told about Mr. Parry being so clever. I went to see him and in two weeks' time after taking his medicine I passed hundreds of gall stones, the soft green kind, and in the ten months I have now attended him I have passed cancer in a dissolved state. I am now like a new woman and can enjoy living and it is with deepest grati- tude to Mr. Parry I write this, as I would have been dead sure long before this if I had not been so fortunate as to hear of him and get his medi- cine.

I am by occupation a railroader-continued exposure to severe weather ended in chronic asthma in 1903. Since then I have indeed beep a burden to myself and family. Every physician called to relieve my spasms said I was the worst case they ever saw, and their only remedy was the hypo- dermic, morphine, atropine, nitro-glycerine, etc., the physicians were Drs. Billick, Murphy, Woods, Brisbine, and Graves, all of Monongahela City, Pa. Their treatment invariably the same, viz. hypodermic. I started treatment with L. L. Parry on Sept. 11, 1915, was barely able to walk, and had done no work for three or four months, and to my mind never would again, as Dr. Murphy had told my wife, "It would only be a mat- ter of time as my heart was getting bad.-" After five weeks' treatment my breathing became easy and normal, in seven weeks' time I started to work (railroading) at yard work exposed to all kinds of weather, and have called in a physician only once, and then I had a heavy cold, with very little asthma. I am working steady and place all credit to L. L. Parry's wonderful medicine. F. E. Herd, Address Box 128 Sworn to and subscribed before me this 16th day of August, 1917. Paul C.

My daughter Margaret became paralyzed; she started to take Mr. Parry's medicine about two years ago; two weeks after taking the first treatment she was able to go to work, this, too, after the doctors stated that she would not be able to walk; she is now getting along fine and is able to work every day; she is practically cured.

Por Mr. Parry does not set any price, but does his good work for humanity for whatever they are willing to donate. 30 THE CAUSE OF DISEASE Now, I, as a native of Pittsburgh, Pa., and a voter of this State, plead and ask in behalf of Mr. Parry and humanity that the Honorable Martin G.

The principal trouble was my bladder, from which I suffered excruci- ating pain. It was made known to me that I had but a short time to live; that being the case, I concluded to take a chance with Mr. Parry; I took the chance, and I thank God for that chance. I first took Mr. Parry's medicine about two years ago; after taking the third treatment I com- menced to improve, and continued to improve most marvelously until the arrest of Mr. Parry, which prevented me from getting the medicine. A noticeable change came over me, I was going back in my health, and I was fearful of getting back to my former state of suffering. In June, 1916, I was again able to get the Parry medicine. After again taking the medi- cine I continued to be benefited. My condition now is so much improved that I have little pain compared to what I have suffered. Considering the fact that I have repeatedly been given up by doctors, my being on this earth to-day is due to Mr. Parry and his medicines. F. F. Washburn.

Dr. Graves of Monongahela pronounced it blood poison. Well, he treated me for some time, but I did not improve. My husband, who was taking treatment with Mr. Parry for asthma, induced me to go with him. Mr. Parry said I had cancer of the stomach. After taking three treatments I commenced passing cancer worms through the bowels by the hundreds, also passed large part of cancer and am still passing cancer worms. My general health has wonderfully improved and 34 THE CAUSE OF DISEASE my face has cleared of all eruptions, and all credit is due L. L. Parry's medicine, as I have taken no other treatment. Mrs. F.

Pittsburgh, Pa., July 19, 1917. I, Antonio Hayek, 2320 Colorado St., N. S. Pittsburgh, have been ailing with severe nervousness and blood poison. Have been well until two years ago, when I got blood poisoned and nervous. I was so sick that I could not stand or walk or do anything, just lay in bed. I was just stiff. My daughter heard through other people about Mr. Parry, and took me to Mr. Parry. He said I was awful weak and old, that I could not stand coming to him, but my daughter just begged him to give me treatment. He only treated me five times and I was a different woman altogether, and now I am in good health ever since. If I should know of anybody suffering with any ailments I will always recommend Mr. Parry. Mr. Parry is a good man. Hope he will live long and do as much good for others as he did for me. Antonio Hayek, 2320 Colorado St. On this 16th day of August appeared before me the above named Antonio Hayek and swore that this statement was true and correct.

She would go to bed feeling all right, and by midnight she would be so bad that she did not know whether she was on top of the bed or under the bed, everything was flying around that fast. Then she went, and doctored with Dr. Seifris and after doctoring with him while she asked him what was the matter, why he could not help her. He said that she had a lazy liver. Then she went to Mr. Parry and he said she had cancer on the liver. She has not had a spell for three years. She thinks if it had not been for Mr. Parry she would have been undei' the sod. I had typhoid fever thirteen years ago last October, and it settled in both of my limbs, and the left limb has given me trouble ever since, by swelling, and about five or six years ago a sore broke out on it. I doc- tored with Dr. McCord for seven months, putting on a salve. It seemed to heal up all right, but it still swelled. I wore a gum stocking from August to April, when I commenced to doctor with an osteopath for it. I doctored with him until October, and still no better, then the sore broke out again, which shows it was not healed up right. I also felt so miserable with such a sleepiness. I saw a doctor in one of Mars's drug stores, and he said I needed exercise. Now I am at home and help with the work in the house, and I thought that ought to be exercise enough. They would tell me it was my liver, and Dr. McCord doctored me for my kidneys and constipation, and still that did not seem to be the cause. Then I went to Dr. Crawford, and when I told him he laughed and said, "I wish I could sleep that way." Now I did not like that; it is no joke. I also doctored for it with the osteopath and I think I told Dr. Seifris about it, but when I had tried so many doctors and got no help I did not have any faith that he could do me any good, but he doctored me for my limb. Mr. Parry told me that it was catarrh of the head that caused such sleepiness. He said that my liver was not right either. My head-sleepiness and limbs are altogether better. I was so bad with the sleepiness that I feel, if I had not got help from Mr. Parry, that I could not by this time do anything but just sleep. THE CAUSE OF DISEASE 37 I certainly cannot thank Mr. Parry enough for what he has done for me, and I do not forget to remember him in my prayers and pray and hope that his trouble will soon all be over. I have been ailing for fourteen years next October- with a bad limb from typhoid fever, and longer than that with sleepiness caused by catarrh in my head and I had a leaking valve of the heart and it is so good now that I do not know I have a heart. I doctored with several doctors and found no relief until I came to Mr. Parry and took his medicine. Mother has been painfully afflicted with rheumatism and biliousness. She has been married thirty-five years, and she was afflicted with rheu- matism before she was married, and badly afflicted since she has been married. She went on crutches, and since doctoring with Mr. Parry she is free of it, and has not had any bilious spells for three years this fall, and would take one or two a week before doctoring with Mr. Parry.

It is my duty to Mr. Parry and suffering humanity to acknowledge the benefit I received after taking his medicine. About three years ago, I be- came troubled with my nerves and my general health was run down. I had tried several doctors but without any relief.

I suffered a great deal from stomach trouble, and at times it felt as though there was a big boil in it; that's how sore it was. So at last my physician' over at St. Francis Hospital said that I would have to undergo an operation, which did me more harm than it did me good. One day I was visiting one of my friends in Munhall. He told me to go down and try "Daddy" Parry's medicine. I did as he told me, and since I have been doctoring with him I feel greatly improved, and all of that soreness has left my stomach; also the swelling has gone down wonder- fully. Mrs. E. J.

I have been doctoring with my throat since I was 14 years old, taking treatments two and three times every month, which helped some. Every winter I was sick with my throat. This last winter my throat did not bother me. I doctored with Dr. Anderson of Pittsburgh, a specialist for some time, for my throat before going to Mr. Parry's.

R. M. Daubenspeck, Notary Public. My commission expires Jan. 5, 1919. Woodlawn, Pa., Aug. 11, 1917. I received great benefits by taking Mr. Parry's medicine. In the year of 1913 up to Nov. 15, 1914, I was subject to severe attacks of acute indigestion. I became so weak, for the simple reason that every- thing I ate brought on severe headaches and stomach trouble, that I could not attend school. The last attack I had, my father asked our family doctor if the attacks were dangerous, and he said they would not kill me while I was young, but he put me on a diet, and pronounced my case incurable. One of our neighbors by the name of Mrs. 'White ad- vised my father to give Mr. Parry's medicine a trial and he complied with her request. So I went down with Mrs. White on Nov. 15, 1914, and had my first dose with Mr. Parry, and I went regularly once a week until the first week in March, when Mr. Parry told me to come every other week. The result is that I have not had one attack of acute indigestion since I took the first dose of Mr. Parry's medicines. During the first year I took his medicine I was sick for two or three days until I got rid of a clot of blood which Mr. Parry claimed was on my head. I eat three good meals a day and am feeling fine, and I do testify that this is the truth, and I hope and trust that Mr. Parry will be granted that license that others may receive the same benefit that I have.

I commenced taking Mr. Parry's medicine February, 1916, and after taking the medicine I began to improve at once, and at the present time I seldom have an ache or pain. Have gained in weight and feel simply splendid. I cannot praise Mr. Parry's wonderful medicine half enough and my constant prayer is THE CAUSE OF DISEASE 45 that nothing will prevent Mr. Parry from being permitted to continue giving his medicine to the many sufferers who come to him to receive it.

Went to see him and had to carry my girl to his office, as any of my neighbors can tell, a hopeless case, as doctors would say, with hip joint disease, and they said a cripple for life. We took her in a wheel chair to the machine, then from the machine to the office, as we had eight miles to go. When we went to Parry four months she began to step on her leg. When we went six months she could walk without crutches, then she went on a cane for a few weeks and then threw it away. Her leg now is as large as her well one, and when I started to go to Parry it was four inches shorter. It is a little short yet, but it don't bother her any, and all credit to Parry; she is still going to Parry every three weeks yet, and I think he has only given her about 80 doses of medicine in that time. Well if people only could have seen her when I started with Parry and see her now you could not believe she was the same girl. Neighbors only say, Tilda, Tilda, is it possible that Parry cured you? No hill is too high for her now. Nothing can be too much for Parry. Mrs. H. Merser. Sworn to and subscribed before me this 18th day of August, 1917. George R. Cain, Notary Public.

His leg was weak and much smaller than the other one and his foot was all twisted out of place and the family physician said there was nothing more to be done for him, so I took him to Mr. Parry at the age of 5% years.

My commission expires first Monday in January, 1918 New Castle, Pa. I, Mrs. Ella Hey, have taken Mr. Parry's medicine since Dec. 5, 1916, and find I have been greatly benefited beyond all my expectation. Being a cripple from the age of 13 years from an attack of acute scrofula but suf- fering no pain, I made my own living while single (18) ; have done my own work until three years ago. I was almost totally disabled from rheu- matism. During that time the Shenango Valley Hospital, also Mt. Clem- ens Hospital, had me in their care. The latter gave me relief for a while. My knees were so sore I could scarcely walk, but I got around a little. At the beginning of cold weather last fall I was taken completely down again. A friend told me about Mr. Parry, so as soon as able to make the trip, on December 5, went there. I was in a worse condition than I knew, being dropsical, my weight being 245 pounds.

My wife has been sick for years and unable to work for months, can now eat, sleep, and work as well as any ordinary woman. My youngster, being unable to sleep at nights or keep any food on her stomach, had chronic bowel trouble, and had no use of limbs; is now in fine health, Mr. Parry's treatment having corrected all these troubles. She can eat and sleep like a top, and she is far from being the skeleton she was when first taken to Mr. Parry. Can furnish any desired proof of this youngster's condition, other than what is here, as we also buried a boy who died from the same trouble, after trying every medical man we had heard of. I myself took the treatment for six months and was cured of bowel and stomach trouble, also was able to do away with my glasses, and it is now fourteen months since I personally have taken Mr. Parry's treatment and I am in fine health.

THE CAUSE OF DISEASE 49 Pittsburgh, Ally. Co., Pa., Aug. 14, 1917. I was ailing with a constant pain at the top of my head for about seven years, and never got any relief, until I took Mr. L. L. Parry's medicine. I was told by Dr. Bowman, of the Wiest Penn Hospital, that there was no cure for me without an operation and I was afraid to undergo one. About six months later I paid Dr. Miller, of Smithfield Street, Pittsburgh, fifty dollars for treatment and two dollars a week for seven months, and got no cure. I was advised by the family doctor to go to the hospital, as I would have to be operated on to get cured. I was treated by Dr. Tucker of Sixth street, Pittsburgh, and got no relief. But it was a Godsend to me the day I began to take Mr. L. L. Parry's medicine, for I am feeling well now, and have never had a pain or ache since, and I did not have to go to the hospital. As I am the mother of eight children, I had to take the treatment at Mr. Parry's office, so that I could be at home to take care of my family. I conclude by saying his medicine is worth its weight in gold to the sick and afflicted. Mrs. John Roche, 332 Thirty-eighth St., Pittsburgh, Pa.

Finally I was advised to try Mr. Parry at 1125 Penn Ave., Pittsburgh, and I am glad to say that his medicine worked wonders for me.

Woodlawn, Pa., Aug. 15, 1917. I wish to testify to the benefit I have received by taking Mr. L. L. Parry's medicine. Before I started to take Mr. Parry's medicine, which was on the 13th of September, 1916, I was always under the care of a doctor, and at times I had to telephone for the doctor. And with rare exceptions, it was the grip, and the attacks were severe and so often, a year ago. I decided to give Mr. L. L. Parry a trial. I was always under the impression I was suffering from indigestion and constipation. The first day I ap- peared before Mr. L. L. Parry these were his words: "It will take a long time to cure you, but if you will stick I will pull you through." In about four weeks afterward I asked Mr. Parry what he thought my trouble was, and I do say to my great surprise he said, "Cancer on the liver." May the truth prevail. I instantly became a doubting Thomas. I could not believe that I had cancer on the liver, and I do say that on my way home that day I made up my mind not to take any more of Mr. Parry's medicine. When I reached home I happened to remember my daughter's condition, Mary Newby, who had been taking Mr. Parry's medicine for three years and she was cured. For fear I was making a mistake, I thought it best to give Mr. Parry another trial. I continued and the only change I noticed was I did not feel so tired and restless. Last April Mr. Parry told me that I was going to be a sick man, and he told me what was going to happen to me, and I do say that when I reached home that day I was a sick man; that was on a Tuesday, and the next day I felt better, but Wednesday night I was a great deal worse and Thursday I got rid of the cancer. I took it down to Mr. Parry on the following Monday and I showed it to him. Mr. Parry told me that it was the cancer. The next week I got rid of some more cancer, this continued every week, as. I would pass parts of cancer. Since July 28 to date, August 15, 1917, I have got rid of more than usual, which makes me feel weak at times. But in general I feel much stronger, appetite Walter Newby THE CAUSE OF DISEASE 51 better, sleep well, and I am satisfied that Mr. Parry's medicine will clean my system entirely of the cancer. This I do swear is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. I am ready and willing to testify before any court of justice that this statement of mine is the truth. Trusting that these few lines will help before the Governor of Pennsylvania, and that Mr. L. L. Parry will get a special license for the sake of suffering humanity. May God bless you.

I had periodical spells of gas in my stomach and bowels and suffered great misery at times and had to be careful what I ate, but now I seem to have taken a new lease of life and do not worry about my stomach. I also had trouble with my ears and was told that I would always have to give them atten- tion, especially in the spring and fall, but the trouble has not returned. Relatives and friends say I look a lot better since Parry's medicine has been working on me. I know that I can feel the difference anyhow.

I, being a patient of Mr. Parry, am glad to have the chance to explain what Mr. Parry has done for us. When I came to Mr. Parry three years ago I could hardly live. I had doctored a good bit, but, being not able to get any help, I gave up. I was treated for consumption at that time they called it. I at last did think, when the doctors could not do me any good and I came to Mr. Parry, that was a Godsend, for since Mr. Parry removed tumor cancer and liver cancer and quite a lot of rubbish from my body I feel fine and strong. If it had not been for Mr. Parry's medi- cine I would be in my grave. Oh, he has saved me so much pain I can hardly realize I am the same person. My husband says he owes Mr. Parry more than he could make good, for what he did for his family, and not only what he has done for us. Oh, if God only helps us a while! He never went back on us or Mr. Parry. My back was terrible; now not a pain. I could not lie on my left side or on my back at night. Why, I suffered at all times. No one could explain. Mr. Parry is a Godsend. None of the doctors' knives nor doctors' medicine could save my life. My doctor said I could not live over night. He set my time, poor fellow. I had confidence enough, but he did not know, he meant it all right. He was so good and kind; he could not stop my cough; why, I never could get one night's sleep, but Mr. Parry stopped it. I have my cancer and tumor. Six doctors examined these articles, for they could not do that without the knife and Dr. Mill said, "Be con- tented; if Parry's medicine did that it will cure you too. It cleans your blood." Why our doctor had so much confidence he told my husband he is wonderful, go and get your blood cleaned, for it is slow, and he could doctor for the price you could stand. He was looking after my husband; he is all right; he has been our doctor for a long time. Why, he treated three others of our family who were incurable. Now my little Helen Mar- shal, six years old. My doctor treated her for running ears; he said now it has gotten away from us. He was doctoring and she kept getting worse. She had turned to tuberculosis of the inner ear. She got so she would take spells. He said now operate on her head. I said, can you not try 54 THE CAUSE OF DISEASE and get it worked out in some way? I could not stand to see her little head opened back of her ear. She had the grip and that seemed to be where it settled; so we asked, Is there no way to treat her? He said no, so he said he would not say he could cure her, but maybe it might, but when he got done he said, I can't do anything more only operate. So I took the little bones-it was about all there was-to Mr. Parry. People's hearts ached for her; everybody thought she was like a doll. Mr. Parry saved her life, I am sure. Why, she took fivd doses, as near as I can re- member. Not over five, I think, and like a core of a boil came out of her little ear. Then the other. Then you ought to have seen the change on her after she began getting better. Neighbors came and said, Why, Mrs. Marshal, is that really little Helen? You ought to see her. She is just awful smart but she is cured. Now remember she was about 3 years old. I have given her the Parry medicine, and I want her to have it right along for she will grow strong and nice, so I feel that we must still have his medicine to keep us well. I never need a doctor since we began taking medicine of Mr. Parry; that is all we need. Now for my Mildred Marshal, another patient, kidney bladder and other trouble. Our doctor treated her; she got a little help but no cure. He said, now you will have to do the best you can by her. She has weak organs. He treated her from 3 years till about 3 years ago. If I could get her medi- cine I feel sure Mr. Parry will cure her, for she was incurable for she just got worse. Help in one way, worse in another. I have got so much help of Mr. Parry's medicine I can't praise it enough, and if I cannot get the medicine I do not know what we are going to do, for my Mildred needs it so bad it would be a shame and I feel God would punish any one to be so cruel to make another way; she is growing strong and her kidneys are much better, but she needs it yet. I must take our boy in soon and if he can't get the medicine, that is if anything should happen to Mr. Parry that he can't get the medicine, I don't know what to do. I just know that God sent Mr. Parry to save us so we could take care of our children. Now I can do all my work; before I began I could not. Oh, I don't know how much to thank Mr. Parry.

I have been taking the Parry treatment since the 17th of last October, and since that time I have taken him two bottles of cancer of the bowels, and I am passing it right along. I don't think it will be neces- sary for me to state that he is doing me good, for you can see for your- self. I am much improved since I started treatment with Mr. Parry. I took medicine given me by doctors here and it didn't prove to be of any relief. I think Mr. Parry is doing a great and blessed thing for the care of suffering humanity. I have been ailing for at least four years, and before I started with Mr. Parry I didn't know what to do. Doctors said they didn't know what was the trouble, only that I had stomach trouble.

To-day, at the end of eight months, there is a wonderful improvement in the condition of my eyes. Knowing of the wonderful cures that Mr. Parry has already made, and the good he is now doing myself and others, I sincerely trust that he will be granted the special license which he desires.

Before coming to Mr. Parry for treatment my health had been failing me for some time, and was advised to consult a Dr. L. H. Alexander, whose office is in the Jenkins Arcade, Pifth Floor, Pittsburgh, Pa. He pro- nounced me as suffering from tuberculosis and advised me to go to a sanitarium. When there seven (7) weeks, some of the time confined to bed, I began getting worse, and I then came home feeling much worse than when I went away. When I got home we got a Dr. Thompson of Homestead and began treatment, but I got no results, so we got another, Dr. Jones, of Home- stead. When he began treatment, in a few days he said I could not get better, as my bowels had become tubercular and nothing could be done for me. He advised us to get another doctor, as he could do nothing for me. He said I might live three weeks more or die any day. We got another, Dr. Campbell of Homestead. He began treatment but got no results. Medicine would not stay on my stomach. So I asked one day if he thought what Dr. Jones had said about my condition was true, and he said he hoped it was not at first, but he was beginning to be afraid it was true. We had a consultation of two doctors one day, and they said I had inward trouble and needed an operation, but I was too weak to go through one, so the subject stopped there. I began to get very weak and I thought nothing could be done for me. I had heard of Mr. Parry, so we went down to see what he would say, so I began to take treatment on August 24, 1915, and began to improve shortly after. Just think! a woman given up to die, and in eleven (11) months after starting Mr. Parry's treatment I had born to me a nice strong healthy baby girl. I have been able to do my own housework, attending to my family of five (5) children. I praise God for the day I went to Mr. Parry for treatment and I trust God will bless him with long life and he be able to continue to treat suffering humanity, of which I was one. Mrs. Nellie Ednie.

In July, 1916, I got a very bad cough. I had three doctors treating me and I got so weak under their treatment I could hardly walk. One told me I had lung trouble, the other two said my whole system was poisoned, but they couldn't find the cause. I got so thin and weak I could hardly walk. My family and neighbors all thought I would surely die. I could not bend my right knee or use my right hand. I could not eat nor sleep. I was just miserable. At last my husband took me to Parry. I didn't have any faith in him, but I went to please my husband. I asked Parry if he could cure me. He said he could. I went for about three months. I passed some bad looking stuff. I took it to Parry; he told me it was cancer of the stomach and liver. I commenced to eat and sleep, then it wasn't long till I could do my own work. My friends would hardly think it could be possible that Parry did so much for me. For the sake of the suffering people I pray that L. L. Parry is permitted to still give the medicine. He is a good man and why not let him alone? The doctors that treated me were Dr. Arnold from Tarentum, and Dr. Snyder and Dr. McConnell, of New Kensington. Lillian Johnston.

I had for some years been a sufferer with what a number of physicians pronounced tuberculosis, and was advised by them that I was incurable, also that I might prolong my life by moving into a more suitable cli- mate and taking treatment at a sanatorium particularly adapted to this disease. I did this at considerable expense without receiving any relief. Normally, my weight is about 180 pounds; at the time I went to Dr. Parry, I weighed in the neighborhood of 135 pounds. He advised me that my system was infected with catarrh and that by giving me a course of treatments he could possibly cure me permanently. After taking his treatments for approximately four years I have gained in weight until I now average about 190 pounds, and feel confident that if I continue with him a permanent cure will be effected. My friends, during the early stages of my sickness, had on various occasions given up hopes that I would live more than a few months. Through the wonderful treatments of Dr. Parry, as stated above, I have practically regained my health. The above is a true statement of my condition and the great relief received from Dr. Parry's medicine. Mrs. Ames Bloom, Main St. Subscribed and sworn before me this 11th day of August, 1917. John H. Veil, Justice of the Peace. Aspinwall, Pittsburgh, Pa., July 26, 1917. On January 5, 1916, my Wife, Mrs. Ida M. Riley, was afflicted with a stroke which almost completely paralyzed her left arm and leg. After experimenting with the physics, opiates, and stimulants prescribed by various members of the medical fraternity for a period of about nine months with apparently no results as far as the removal of the blood clots was concerned and very little otherwise, we were advised to give Parry a trial. With many misgivings and very little hope, about October 15, 1916, Mrs. Riley was persuaded to begin the treatment. At this time she could walk but very little and required the attention of another per- son to support her, had to be almost lifted on and off street cars and was otherwise a total nervous wreck. The treatment given by Mr. Parry consisted of about one-half of a glass of his medicine once each week. After the third week's. treatment action of the medicine upon the blood was first observed, and from that time forward slow but regular im- provement of the patient continued and the blood clots have all appar- ently passed away. The patient can now walk alone, can raise her left hand as high as her head, and is able to assist with the housework; she requires very little assistance to board the cars and has almost confidence enough in herself to try to make the trip to Mr. Parry's office alone. Not only do I give Mr. Parry's medicine credit for the wonderful results which he obtains, but the personal magnetism of the man is almost beyond belief. I have seen him bring a young girl out of a violent convulsion in less than one minute, by simply passing his fingers across her forehead and saying 64 THE CAUSE OF DISEASE a few comforting words to her. I have seen a man who had been totally blind for fifteen years who claimed to have had his sight restored by five doses. I saw a man enter Dr. Parry's office and show him a hole in his neck from which a large cancer had just dried up and fallen off, as a re- sult of these treatments. Mr. Parry has never created a dope fiend, a lunatic, or an incurable by his treatments. The many sanitariums and asylums stand as silent witnesses that the drug system as practiced by the average M. D. is a failure and the many inmates are proof of the mis- takes that they have made in their experiments in searching for a cure. Geo. S.

I have confidence that if I could continue his treatments he would be able to cure me permanently. I further feel that a great injustice has been done to Mr. Parry.

I consulted many doctors and specialists, receiving no benefit from any of them. Mr. Parry told me when I started with him he would remove it; this he has done.

I have also thrown my glasses away, as my eyesight is restored, and I can praise Daddy "Parry" for it. Mrs. Maggie Hairl, Lock No. 3, Pa.

THE CAUSE OF DISEASE 73 843, Stuben St., Pittsburgh, Pa., July 27, 1917. As a patient of Mr. L. L. Parry's I want people to know the good his medicine has done for me. I have doctored for almost five years before I went to Mr. Parry. The doctors said I had tuberculosis of the glands. On Nov. 28, 1911, Dr. C. L. Bradford of the South Side Hospital operated on my arms. In the following April Dr. Knorr of the West End made the second incision, and from one doctor to another they kept slashing until there is nothing left of my arm. Then I went to Dr. J. A. Lindsay, and he put a plaster cast on for six or eight weeks. When taken off my arm was out of joint. He then wanted to take an X-ray picture and see if the bone was affected, and if it was too bad he would have to take my arm off to save my life. But I am still here with both arms by taking Mr. Parry's medicine, and find it is helping me better than all the doctors. My arms are free from sores, and I can do all my work. I only wish I could show my arms that justice be granted Mr. Parry, for I am only one of the thousands of poor cripples, blind and sick, that take Mr. Parry's medicine. Mrs. Rose Hanson.

THE CAUSE OF DISEASE 75 Willock, Allegheny Co., Pa., July 26, 1917. I have been troubled for many years with internal and external piles, which caused me great suffering and also caused hemorrhoid, and I found no relief until I commenced taking Mr. L. L. Parry's medicine, which certainly has done me a world of good; and I was also suffering with catarrh of the head and throat and also was suffering with stomach and bowel trouble. In fact I was a total wreck until I commenced using Mr. L. L. Parry's medicine. I cannot express my thanks to Mr. Parry for the good he has done for me. Mrs. Agnes Miller.

I almost gave up in despair, when I was persuaded to go see Mr. Parry; after taking his treatment I passed two inward cancers, and am glad to say that after passing the last one, ninety days ago, I feel fine and am again able to do my housework. This seems wonderful to me. A year ago I could see nothing but an open grave waiting for me, 76 THE CAUSE OF DISEASE every day it looked nearer.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: The undersigned has been acquainted with Miss Bettie Sherbon for a number of years past. I knew her prior to taking treatment and medi- cine of Mr. L. L. Parry of 1125 Penn Av., Pittsburgh, Pa., when she was sick and sore and especially unable to sleep either night or day. Since taking treatment and medicine of Mr. L. L. Parry, of 1125 Penn Av., Pittsburgh, Pa., she has completely changed in appearance and for the better in every way in health, and is now able to obtain sound and refreshing sleep, which is of itself a Godsend, to say nothing of the other wonderful benefits she has received. Knowing Miss Sherbon, both before and after taking treatment and medicine of Mr. L. L. Parry, as I did, it is in my opinion, nothing short of a miracle what Mr. Parry's treatment and medicine achieved in her particular malady, and he should by all means be permitted to assist suffering humanity to vigor and health. Wm. H. Burgess. THE CAUSE OF DISEASE 77 Tarentum, Pa., Aug. 18, 1917. Have suffered for the past eighteen months with stomach and nervous troubles, and, being unable to obtain relief from medicines given me by doctors, I was advised by a friend to consult Mr. Parry. I have been taking Mr. Parry's medicine once a week since April 17, 1917, and find that it has made wonderful improvement in my condition. I can highly recommend it to all sufferers. I feel confident Mr. Parry's medicine is improving my condition.

I went to the hos- pital and went through an operation and still I did not get any relief. I doctored with the same doctor that operated on me for two years and still I took bad spells and thought I was going to die, and then through my husband I found Mr. L. L. Parry and he told me what to do, and I did just what he told me and I got relief. My trouble was some kind of female trouble, I never did just know what kind, and my bowels wouldn't move, and after I saw Mr. Parry, thank God, I am improving every day. My last doctor was Dr. P. V.

Y., July 31, 1917. For nine (9) years I have known of and suffered with various troubles, the principal one being what eight (8) specialists and experienced phy- sicians (the best in my city, Buffalo) called a fibrous growth in the walls of the uterus, causing a general enlargement of that organ, which trouble extended to other female organs. My whole body was inactive, so much so that it did not eliminate any waste matter as it should, causing what the various physicians called encrusted nerves, and nerve exhaustion, con- gested liver-some said gall stone-and various boils on abdomen, said to result from puss tubes, etc.; all of which troubles could be only partly relieved by a serious operation, the outcome of which they were doubtful of, as my blood was so full of poison. No cut or bruise would heal, but large pieces of proud flesh would grow in same. Hearing of Mr. Parry's marvelous success in the treatment of stubborn and so-called incurable maladies, I received permission to become a pa- tient, and went to Pittsburgh March 5, 1917, to begin treatment. I had five doses in succession, one week apart. Since that time I have gone from my home in Buffalo to Pittsburgh every two (2) weeks to receive medicine, and can truthfully say I am wonderfully improved. No more boils have appeared. A large lump the size of an egg on the right shoulder has gone away. My nerves are in a greatly improved condition. No more pain in liver. No more of the very severe headaches I was subject to. I am going to continue to go to Mr. Parry for his wonderful medicine until the tumor in the uterus is either all absorbed or the main lump passes. I sincerely trust that Mr. Parry will be allowed to continue to bless humanity with his consecrated life and efforts. Mrs. J. B. MacKerrow.

Carrick, Pa., Aug. 19, 1917. I had four children; the oldest was born December 9, 1912. The fourth one was born December 7, 1915. After the fourth child was born I suffered with such terrible pains in my sides that my family doctor said it was caused from weakness and having my children so close. I menstruated Feb. 15, 1915, and on March 15, and still had the same pains as in bed. I would call them after pains. Remember I had them almost steady. I went to Dad Parry March 21, 1915, took the medicine and on March 25, 1915, menstruated again; there were all kinds of clots came from me. I haven't had any pains since. With every one of the children I had swollen veins; with the fourth child I could not walk nor even stand; the doctor could not give me anything to relieve me; said I should try and stay off my feet. An aunt asked Parry if he could help me, but I was soon to take sick with the fourth child and he said it was too late to start taking medicine. With every child the veins would be more and larger. I had been taking the medicine one year and had to stop to give birth to twin boys on the 24th of May, 1917, but started when the twins were seven weeks old. I never had a vein nor felt better while I carried them. My little girl, the third child, was ruptured when she was four weeks old. My doctor ordered a truss. I paid $2 for it and thought she suffered with it and she only wore it a few times. She was sixteen months old all but a few days when I took her to "Dad" Perry. I did not have much faith in him, in fact I only knew him, but thought I would try and see what he could do. That was March 21, 1915; it was through taking her that I took the medicine. She took the medicine three times when her rupture was up, but I left her to take it a few months. She'll be three years on November 25, and I have never seen the rupture down since she took the third dose. One of the twins is ruptured since he was two weeks old. I started him to Parry's when he was seven weeks old; he is 10 weeks old now, but just took the medicine twice, and I am sure Dad will cure him.

My sister, Miss Amanda, has been sick for seven years with various troubles, catarrh, chronic chest, and lung trouble; has been in bed months at a time. Last November she started taking Mr. Parry's medicine, which was the best thing for her; now she is able to do all the housework and feels much better. Thanks to God and Mr. Parry for this great change, as it was so hard for her to be spending money on doctors who were considered the best, and they did her so little good. People who knew her condition are amazed at the change and hope that the Great God will shower great blessings on this wonderful man, Mr. L. L. Parry, who is doing so much for suffering humanity and the poor that are not able to pay to get the same treatment as those that pay, as I am told. My brother has started taking the medicine for stomach, kidney, and liver trouble. For many years he has doctored with many doctors, but Mr. L. L. Parry is doing him good. I myself have started taking the medi- cine for the last five years; have had nervous catarrh and chest trouble; in fact am all broke up at different times; had to be out of work six months at a time. Doctored with I feel like saying every doctor, as I had so many with little results. I am able to say there is a change in my condition and truly think in a short time I will be a changed person.

I got a prescription for glasses eight years ago on the advice of Dr. Sullivan of Lincoln Ave., but they did not relieve me very much, outside of the strain on my eyes. About two years ago I doctored for bronchitis, after which it seems I got some relief. When I first had these headaches I carried them from twenty to twenty- four days a month. In the last two years they were not so severe. Last January I went to Mr. Parry's and began his treatment. In a few weeks I commenced to see a difference. I felt better and as time went on I improved. The haggard look in my face left and other minor ail- ments left.

Edgewood, Pa., July 23, 1917. Early in the spring of 1915 I commenced to have trouble with my stomach and was under the care of Dr. W. W. Hones and other doctors for over one year without obtaining any relief whatever or getting any definite diagnosis of what was the cause of my trouble: during all of this time I was suffering the most acute pain and lost all appetite for food of any kind and became emaciated and so weak that I could not work at all. In June, 1916, I consulted Drs. Johnson and Greer, X-ray practitioners, of Pittsburgh. After a thorough examination and taking of nine different pictures, they told me I had an ulcer in my stomach and that was all that was ailing me. I then went to Dr. 0. C. Gaub, of Pitts- burgh, and he advised me to go to the hospital and have the ulcer re- moved. On the 5th of July, 1916, I went to the Columbia Hospital and on the next day Dr. Gaub opened my abdomen to make an examination of the stomach; upon doing so he found a cancerous growth in the stomach of such size and in such a condition that to have removed it would have been certain death to me. He closed the wound and after it healed I went home; the doctors all said I could live only a short time at best. Having heard of Mr. L. L. Parry of 1125 Penn Ave., Pittsburgh, from persons who had taken his medicine and had been cured of it, on Sept. 7, 1916, I went to see him and began taking his treatment; after taking two doses of it, I commenced to get relief from the acute pain. I have continued taking treatment up to the present time with the result that I have gained considerable strength and have been able to do some work ever since. In the month of May, 1917, I called at Dr. 0. C. Gaub's office, the surgeon who operated on me in the hospital; he examined me and de- cisively stated that the growth in my stomach was not more than one- half as large as when he performed the operation. I know that I have been greatly benefited and surely believe that if I can continue to take Mr. Parry's treatment I will fully recover from this disease. Hoping that Mr. Parry may be allowed to continue the good work he is doing for humanity, I remain, Charles P. Hill. Sworn to and subscribed before me this 23d day of July, A. D. 1917. John C.

Pittsburgh, Allegheny Co., Pa., Aug. 8, 1917. Mr. Parry's medicine is doing us a wonderful lot of good. My little girl had whooping-cough when she was a year and a half old and a Dr. THE CAUSE OF DISEASE 115 Thomas McMurray from Wilkinsburg, Pa., at that time had given her medicine to check the cough; instead of all the phlegm and mucous being coughed up or vomited, which most all children do, when having whoop- ing-cough, hers worked down into the stomach, and we have been doctoring for her stomach since that. After eating her meals she would complain of pains in her stomach and abdomen, and all her food would pass through her bowels undigested, yet I followed the doctor's directions carefully and gave her medicine regularly. We got no cure nor relief for her, until we started her at Mr. Parry's in January, and now she eats most anything we do, and does not complain any more. She certainly has improved wonderfully. I have had rheumatism, indigestion, and a terrible cough ever since I was thirteen years old. I coughed summer and winter, and day and night. Sometimes I had to stay in bed for weeks, when the cough had a good hold of me. Every year I grew gradually worse. All the doctors I went to said my lungs were affected, and the year before I was married my mother tried to take out an insurance policy at the Metropolitan Insur- ance Company, and they turned me down, saying I had consumption. I also tried all kinds of other medicines, besides taking medicines from doctors, but all I got was a little relief and no cure. Since I have been taking Mr. Parry's medicine my cough has stopped entirely, after taking it three months, which I am most thankful for. I have been taking his medicine since November 23, and do not get rheumatism any more, and have very little indigestion, which I expect to get rid of after a couple more treatments. After seeing how much good he has done for me and my daughter and others, that I have talked to at his office, I have started in several other patients, who are getting such wonderful results, as we have been getting, that they are recommending him to others also. Parry's medicine is a Godsend to this world. He helps the crippled, cures the sick, and restores sight to the blind, and many other diseases. He should be given most consideration. Mrs. Anna Humel.

For a number of years I have been doctoring with different doctors and they all said I had rheumatism; I got so bad and my hands crippled up so badly that I could not put on a pair of gloves, and could not cut bread for my children; I lay days at a time not able to move; I would have to call in the neighbors to cut bread for my children. With all my doctoring I got worse, till I was recommended to go to Mr. L. L. Parry of 1125 Penn Ave., and the first dose of medicine relieved me, and I have improved so much that I can do my own work and my hands are nearly back to their normal shape. I can't praise Mr. Parry's medicine too highly, for if I had been taking the doctor's treatment I would have been in my grave. After I had seen the benefits I derived from his medicine, I took my little girl Margaret, eight years old, who was ordered home from school to be operated on for adenoids; she was so bad that I was afraid to go to sleep at nights for fear that she would choke to death, and her eyes were closed every morning when she got up. Her adenoids and tonsils are fine; she sleeps finely and I did not have her operated on. The rest of my family also take the medicine; it would take all day for me to tell of the good he has done them. They are all good and healthy now.

Beginning with severe screaming spells, brought on by no apparent cause, he became extremely irritable; he stopped talking except to make the most necessary requests and would shake his head and play with his fingers whenever left to himself. He was operated on for diseased tonsils and was temporarily better, but was relapsing into former condi- tion.

For the inward trouble I was operated upon by Dr. Lang- fort at the St. John's Hospital six years ago, but obtained no relief. For some time after the operation I took treatments from my family phy- sician, Dr. B. B. Smith (now deceased). He advised another operation and I laid plans to go to the Presbyterian Hospital to be operated upon by Dr. Williams. Upon hearing of Mr. Parry's many cures I decided to try him and sent word to Drs. Smith and Williams to the effect that I would not go under the operation at that time. Dr. Smith said I was running a big risk, but I am now feeling better than at any time during 126 THE CAUSE OF DISEASE the past eight years. I have taken my daughter to many physicians for treatment. Hrs. B. B. Smith, S. G. Wertz, Zig, A. Wray Berkley, R. B. Ferree and others would not even treat her. Dr. Diller refused to treat her and advised that I send her to Polk Institution, charging $15 for this advice. Some physicians claimed that she was subject to epilepsy, for which there was no cure. She took osteopathic treatments for two years. We also had an X-ray picture taken at the hospital and were advised that no help could be given. Since starting with Mr. Parry she is grow- ing and developing and the spells are fewer and her health generally im- proved. I think if she takes Mr. Parry's medicine a little longer she will be cured. On account of the good Mr. Parry has done for me, and has done and is doing my daughter, I think he should be licensed to admin- ister to all who need his aid.

About a year ago I went to see a prominent physician in F. H. in re- gard to my health. And he attended me and gave me medicine for about seven months, but practically did me no good. On Nov. 1, 1916, I went to see Mr. Parry relative to my case. Have been going to see him every week since I started and am still going. When I started to take his medi- cine I was on the verge of a nervous breakdown. My sight was very bad, it being necessary for me to wear glasses. My mind was affected. In fact, I was in an awful condition. Now I am a new woman, am almost com- pletely cured and can go without glasses, which I was not able to do be- fore taking Mr. Parry's medicine. I certainly cannot say enough for what he has done for me. Amelia Harmening. Sworn to and subscribed before me this 9th day of August, 1917. Bertha J. Jones, Notary Public.

The doctors told me I had to die, no one could cure me. I was so low they had to hold me up on my feet when I would walk. I could not walk alone. I heard of Mr. L. L. Parry. I went to see him and I took his treatment eight weeks. I could then do my own work, what I did not do for seven years. I wore glasses thirteen years. I don't need them any more after tak- ing Mr. Parry's treatment. I now weigh 150 pounds and do all my own work. I had many a doctor, but they all gave me up, and I think it is God's blessing to have a man like Mr. Parry that can heal the people and make them well again. Mr. L. L. Parry cured me and I am a stronger woman to-day than I ever was in my life since I got Mr. L. L. Parry's medicine. If it had not been for Mr. Parry I would have been dead and buried long ago, and I thank God for Mr. Parry and the help which I have received from him. I had kidney and bladder trouble very bad and I had a goitre in my neck and cancer in my stomach. I could hardly see and I was very nervous. I was a total wreck and Mr. Parry has cured me of these things. These are the diseases the medical doctors said I had before I went to Mr. Parry. Not alone myself. My little boy was struck with lightning and no one could cure him and I took him to Mr. Parry and he is fine now. He was so bad he could not hear us when we would talk to him. He is all right now. My baby son had an attack of paralysis, his legs were black and blue and he could not use them and I took him to Mr. Parry and after three treatments he could move his legs and he is a fine boy now. He can walk now and talk and is doing finely. Mrs. H. A. Streyle, 3012 Owen Ave., Mt. Olive Branch. Before me came Mrs. H. A. Streyle, of Brentwood Borough, Pa., and swears the above to be true and correct this 20th day of August, 1917. Joseph A. Werner, Notary Public. Commission expires Feb. 21, 1919.

I, Mrs. Rebecca Lucas, do certify that I have been blind for twelve years and have had different specialists, but found no relief, they saying I would never see; and as a last resort I came to Mr. Parry, and after taking about thirty-six treatments I am now able to see to read and write and do my own work. Thanks to Mr. Leonard Parry. Mrs. Rebecca Lucas, 323 W.

I have been doctoring for thirty-five years for gall stones, kidney trouble, and different ailments. After being operated on I was no better; in fact, in the thirty-five years of severe suffering I found no relief until three years ago when my son informed me of Mr. Parry. I visited his place of business on Penn Ave., and after taking the first glass of medicine I found great relief. Have gained in weight and feel better in every way, and will never be able to thank Mr. Parry enough for what good he has done for me. Mrs. M. Lenigan.

I was troubled with rheumatism for two years, had doctored with Dr. L. LeVan, Dr. Atkinson, and others, but of no use. Was almost paralyzed. Did not work for almost two years until I heard of Mr. Parry. Went down, but could not get in on account of the crowd that was taking treat- ment, so I waited a week and went back again and finally got in there and took my first medicine. After taking about three doses I saw im- provement, so I kept it up; now it is going on the second year and I am almost cured. My eyesight was bad, now it is improved. I can't say enough for him, for had it not been for him I would be in my grave long ago and there are many others I recommended there when doctors told them there was no hope for them. They found relief after taking the med- icine. I can't say enough for Mr. Parry, and I do hope that he can con- tinue giving his medicine, for the people really need him as the flowers need water.

I was hardly able to perform my daily work. , Rheumatism and kidney trouble, lumbago and bron- chitis had the best of me. I suffered something terrible. Tried doctor after doctor, spending lots of good money, and getting no relief. My mother-in-law drew my attention to Mr. Parry's medicine. She was greatly benefited by it. Four years ago she suffered a stroke of paralysis which left her in a condition that she could not move from one chair to another without help. Some friend told her of Mr. Parry and after taking his medicine for six months she was able to perform her house- hold duties and is doing so to this day. Her name is Mrs. May Kullman. I took her advice and went to see Mr. Parry. I have been taking his medicine since March 1, and must say that I have no rheumatism or lum- bago. Have not had a pain over the kidneys since and the bronchitis is not bothering me either. My wife also has been taking the medicine for stomach trouble, and it has made a new woman of her. My daughter also is taking the medicine for stomach trouble and is doing fine. My small son Lanis always was puny and sickly, and since he started to go to Mr. Parry's and take his medicine he is starting to grow and looks the picture of health. In fact, I cannot say too much for Mr. Parry's medicine, and if I had all the money which I spent on other doctors without getting any benefit, I would make Mr. Parry a present of it.

Personally appeared before me John Kapestinski, who, being duly sworn according to law, doth depose and say that for about five years prior to November, 1915, I had been ailing, especially the years of 1914 and 1915. I was a very sick man, could not work, was about all in. I had been taking treatment from various doctors, but of no avail; I was asked to try Mr. Parry's treatment. Commenced in November, 1915, was so weak I could hardly get to his office. I took my first treatment then, have been going every week since until three months ago when I began to go every two we£ks. The catarrh has left me and I can eat well, my liver is normal, I sleep well, can do a good day's work. I was operated on in the hospital in 1913 for appendicitis, did not improve until I went to Mr. Parry's for treatment; his treatment has done wonders for me, also many of my neighbors, some of whom have been cured of cancer of the worst type. I am a mine worker, and am glad to say I am able to do a day's work again. John Kapestinski. Sworn and subscribed before me this 12th day of August, 1917. W. W. Wiegemann, Notary Public.

Personally appeared before me Lemon Antill, who, being duly sworn according to law, doth depose and say: I am a farmer, and was afflicted with kidney trouble for more than three years and could get no relief, got no encouragement from the various physicians, as they pro- nounced my case hopeless. I heard of and saw some wonderful cures derived from Mr. Parry's treatment. I called on him and began his treatment in August, 1916, and am proud to say that I am cured of that dreadful disease that has caused so many to go to an early grave. The cures I have seen with my own eyes of different diseases, caused by Mr. Parry's treatment, are marvelous. Such a man as he should never die, as he is a blessing to suffering humanity.

Personally appeared before me Mrs. Sofia Ertle of Avella, Pa., who, being duly sworn according to law, doth depose and say: Since 1908 I had been in very poor health; took treatment from several doctors; they did not seem to diagnose my trouble correctly, as I kept growing worse until I could not do my housework for nearly two years. My feet and body would swell badly at times. Finally my case was named dropsy. A neighbor lady who was a patient of Mr. Parry's coaxed me to go with her to see Mr. Parry. He said he could cure me if I would stick to his treatment. I promised him I would, as he was the only person that gave me any hope. The treatment did make me feel very sick at times, but the ninth treatment caused me to pass a large cancer from the bowel. In a few weeks I improved so rapidly that I was able to do my own housework, and at present I feel so much improved that I con- sider myself a well person. I can cheerfully recommend any person suffering with cancer to give Mr. Parry's treatment a fair trial and a cure is sure. Mrs. Sofia Ertle.

I was in a street car wreck which caused me to lose my sight about six weeks later, on May 9, 1914. I doctored in this city until the doctor could do no more for me and then I went to several specialists in Pitts- burgh, Pa., and Youngstown, 0., and they said they could not make any change in my case. In the meantime I heard of Mr. Parry, who is now 144 THE CAUSE OF DISEASE located at 1125 Penn Ave., Pittsburgh, Pa., and I started to take his treatment on Monday, January 4, 1915, and my sight was increasing well, and I was beginning to see when on May 4, 1916, he was arrested and stopped from giving his treatment, and it caused me to miss seven weeks' treatment up to June 19, 1916, which caused my sight to drop back to where it was before starting the treatment, and now my sight is increasing well again.

At request of a good neighbor who was a patient of L. L. Parry's of Pittsburgh, Pa. (this patient having re- ceived wonderful results in the Parry treatment), to not give up but try the last resort, Mr. Parry's treatment, which she and I are glad she did, as after taking twenty-two treatments, first ten treatments, one each week, the other twelve treatments one every two weeks, she was so well that she felt as well as ever she did. Does her own housework, and did not miss a day in the garden this season when it needed attention.

My doctor did not seem to give me relief. On Oct. 24, 1913, he sent me to a hospital for THE CAUSE OF DISEASE 145 examination; there they operated for appendicitis. I did not recover after the operation as I should have. Was not able to go to work for a long time, and when I did I was played out in four hours; I had to quit and go home. I heard of Mr. Parry, went to him on the 2d day of Au- gust, 1916, and am glad to say that it was only a few trips until I began to feel better. In four months I was able to do a full day's work, eat well, sleep well, and can stand to work forty hours better than I could that many minutes. I consider myself sound and well, but will take treatment whenever I am in the city. This man gave me relief where I was in pain; the others only relieved my pocketbook of its contents. I certainly can recommend Mr. Parry's treatment to all suffering hu- manity. John Nalepo. Sworn to and subscribed before me this 9th day of August, 1917. W. W. Wiegemann, Notary Public.

Had a bad case of spinal trouble, very crooked spine, a growth on my left side which caused much pain, but since taking treatment of Mr. Parry; my spine has straightened and discharged pus from side; at present in normal condition. After nine months' treat- ment began making my own living and am improving right along. Words are empty at best and cannot state how grateful I am to God and Mr. Parry for my present condition. Being unable to work, I went to Mr. Parry without funds. I informed him I could not pay for treatment until able to work; his answer was I do not want your money, but we want you to get well.

Two years ago I became troubled with liver, kidney, and bladder trouble, which grew steadily worse until I was a total wreck. Suffering so badly at times I could not sit nor lie down on account of pain. I could eat very little, as any food with the least acid nearly set me frantic with pains in my kidney and bladder. I also developed what seemed to be a severe cold, settling in my throat and chest. I doctored with three different physicians, and used all and every kind of medicines that were THE CAUSE OF DISEASE 161 recommended to me or that I had ever heard of, but kept getting worse right along. I was so run down I was not able to do any housework for a family of two and would be in bed for days at a time. The doctors said I had to have an operation and that I also had tuberculosis. I be- came so disheartened I gave up all hopes of ever getting well. My hus- band, having heard a great deal of "Dad" Parry's wonderful medicine, per- suaded me to go to Pittsburgh last September and consult him, and I thank God to-day, for "Dad" Parry's wonderful medicine has again started me on the road to recovery. I can eat and sleep well. Feel well again. My kidney and bladder trouble is entirely gone, my throat and chest are gradually improving, and I hope and trust that God will spare "Dad" Parry many more years to administer his wonderful medicine to sick and suf- fering humanity.

We doctored with our family physician, Dr. Carson of Homer City, but it did him no good; then we took him to Buffalo, N. Y., to Dr. Pierce's Institution, with the intention of leaving him there for treatment, but they said he was on the verge of insanity and they could not keep him there, but would treat him at his home or put him in some institution for insane, but they gave him medicine for three months, but he got worse and we were advised to try the doctors in Danville Hospital for Insane. So we took him there for seven months. I went to see him and I saw he was a great deal worse than he was when we put him there and we brought him home. Then we heard of Mr. L. L. Parry of Pittsburgh. He began taking his treatment the 3d of last August, 1916, and is still taking his medicine, and is greatly improved both in body and in mind. Before he went to Mr. Parry he looked like a skeleton, so thin in flesh, very little blood, and his nerves in a terrible state, could not sleep, ate very little, and now he sleeps and eats well. Gained in flesh and blood and strength; can work in the garden and other light work. His mind is much better. The neighbors are astonished to see him so much better and we intend to continue his medicine till he is cured. Mr. Parry has done a great deal of good for suffering humanity, and I hope he may be permitted to continue his good work. Mrs. J. C. Craven.

I had been sick for at least ten years and after two operations I was still in a dreadful condition and thought it would be necessary to go through another one, when I heard of Mr. Parry's medicine, and have taken it for almost two years, and it has surely given me relief.

Commission expires Feb. 21, 1919. New Castle, Pa., July 23, 1917. I write in behalf of my wife and son. They have taken two treat- ments of Mr. Parry's medicine and it has shown great results. I have taken my wife to five different doctors in New Castle, and not one of them helped her at all. Two operations never helped. Then I suggested Mr. Parry. Although she has only taken two treatments I am sure she is a different woman. I think a special license is just what Mr. Parry de- serves.

THE CAUSE OF DISEASE N. S. Pittsburgh, Pa., Aug. 6, 1917. I have been suffering for over twenty years with my head and never could find any doctor who could help me without giving me morphine or some other dope. My head would ache so terribly that I was unable to stay up, but had to go to bed all day and very often for two days. I tried many medicines, but without avail. But thanks to Mr. Parry I am cured of the headaches, also several other troubles I had. I want to say that Mr. Parry is a Godsend to all humanity and I trust that our Governor, the Hon. Martin G. Brumbaugh, will for the sake of humanity grant Mr. Parry a special license to continue his good work without interference.

I have been doctoring for years for my hearing and back with special- ists and other doctors, but had not received any satisfaction. I went to Mr. Parry. He said that it was a clot of blood in my head that caused my hearing to be bad. I am feeling better and expect to have my hearing soon. I cannot praise Mr. Parry enough for the good he has done for all of our family. Miss Katie Buck. Sworn and subscribed before me this 22d day of August, 1917. E. C. Curry, Notary Public.

The doctors here said it was his nerves. All he wanted to do was to sleep and when he was not sleeping he wanted to go away. We had to watch him all the time. After receiving no satisfaction we took him to Mr. Parry, who said he had clotted blood on the brain. He took only ten doses when he seemed like a different person. He is still taking the medicine, but will soon be better. I think if it had not been for Mr. Parry he would have been in the insane asylum. God bless "Daddy" Parry for what he has done for him.

I have been suffering for many years with my head and stomach and I took several kinds of tonics, but relief was only for a short time. I came to Mr. Parry and he said that my trouble was in my head, stom- ach, liver, and kidneys. I have taken the medicine one year and ten months and expect by the end of two years to be entirely .cured.

I took several bottles of patent medicine, doctored with my home doctors and different specialists, but did not receive very much relief. Over two years ago I started to doctor with Mr. Parry, and received relief immediately. I am improving every day and hope to be better soon.

I have been complaining and doctoring almost all my life. I complained of my head and stomach all the time. I doctored with specialist doctors Brown of Greensburg, Pa., and Dr. Allshoe of Pittsburgh, Pa., but did not receive any relief. I then went to specialist Dr. Schaffer of Pittsburgh, who told me I had enlarged glands in my neck; but his treatment did not cure me. In despair I went to Mr. Leonard L. Parry, who told me I had cancer of the liver and catarrh of the head. After taking the medicine one year the cancer left me and I seldom complain of my head. I thank Mr. Parry for what he has done for me. Andrew Buck. Sworn and subscribed to this 21st day of August, 1917. E. C. Curry, Notary Public. Commission expires Jan. 16, 1921.

It has not only cured me but will truthfully say Mr. Parry has saved my life, as I know if I had not taken Mr. Parry's medicine I would have been dead a year ago. I doctored with four other doctors and they all said I would have to undergo an operation, but thanks to Mr. Parry and his medicine it was unnecessary.

I was a physical wreck when I started with Mr. Parry three years ago. I had a stroke of paralysis, which the doctor said was a clot on the brain. I suffered so much with my head at times I thought I would lose my reason; now there is none of that. The medical doctors told me not to spend my money, for they knew no cure for me, but I kept on for over nine years, getting worse all the time. A friend told me about Mr. Parry. I have been thankful ever since he told me. He is a Godsend to humanity. I believe firmly if Mr. Parry is given a license to go on, which he is entitled to, and not put out of business, I will be a well man. When I started with Mr. Parry I did not have any feeling in my right side. Now when I step on a little pebble as big as a grain of wheat I feel it. My leg was stiff; the joints would not work; now they all work. I feel like a new man. God bless Mr. Parry. Just to think that doctors will persecute Mr. Parry for doing for me that which they could not do. Joseph H. Matthews, 130 Chess St. Sworn and subscribed to before me this 21st day of August, 1917.

Parry of Pittsburgh and began taking his medicine three years ago, and I can gladly say that I am improving wonderfully, and I do believe he can cure me if I can only get his medicine. I have worked more and felt better at my work since I have been taking Mr. Parry's medicine than I have any time since I have been doctoring. D. A. McCliney.

That her feet were deformed, also that she had severe head- aches, for which physicians prescribed eye glasses without doing the slightest good, and that no benefits whatever were derived from phy- sicians consulted in an effort to secure at least some relief which would enable her to walk without braces. About three years ago she began taking Mr. L. L. Parry's medicine, as a result of which she no longer has headaches and no longer finds it necessary to use glasses. Also that gradual improvement was noticed in her limbs until at the present time she is able to walk without the assistance of braces. The feet, for- merly badly deformed, are now almost normal.

I also had liver and bladder trouble, for which his medi- cine has greatly benefited me, and I believe that if I could be permitted to continue his treatment I would be entirely cured. Mrs. S. F.

I wish to say that my daughter, Margaret, took one dose of L. L. Parry's medicine and the next day passed a worm at least eight inches long. After many diagnoses by various doctors, I myself have taken his medicine and to date have passed possibly fifty gall stones. At no time had any doctor even intimated that I had gall stones. Mrs. F.

About the year 1900 my eyes started to give me trouble, and in 1902 it was necessary for me to go to a specialist to get fitted for glasses; from then on I had to wear glasses. In 1909 I was compelled to get stronger glasses, and have worn glasses constantly up to two months ago. I started to take the Parry treatment about four years ago, and the result of that treatment was the restoration of my sight, so that now I am not required to use glasses at any time. I also was in a badly run down condition at the time I started to take the Parry medicine. I was afflicted with kidney trouble for a long time, but since taking the treat- 182 THE CAUSE OF DISEASE ment have been restored to health, and am now in splendid condition, for which I thank Mr. Parry.

I have suffered with kidney trouble ever since I was nine years of age; as I grew in years, so did the disease grow. I was in perfect agony. Had no appetite. Could not sleep, and was totally unfit for work. I was annoyed most exceedingly on account of frequent urinations. I had gone to. two medical practitioners, and my case was pronounced Bright's disease of the kidneys. There did not seem to be any hope for me. I then heard of Mr. Parry. I went to him and took his medicine and in five months from the time of taking his first treatment my appe- tite returned. I could sleep, and work all day. I attribute my present health to Mr. Parry, whose medicine is responsible for my present good condition, and I thank God that I was directed to go to him. George W.

I, Morris J. Smith, have been a sick and helpless man for the past twelve years with hardening of the arteries, indigestion, and stomach THE CAUSE OF DISEASE 183 trouble. I have doctored with the best doctors and specialists in Pitts- burgh and Avalon, some twenty-five different ones, without any relief. The last professional treatment I received was from Dr. A. H. Elliott of Avalon, who administered Dr. Mulfors's serum treatment as a last resort. I received no benefit from this treatment whatever. During the past twelve years I have spent a fortune, seeking some relief from doc- tors, physicians and surgeons, without any result whatever. My legs were all swollen and useless. I have been unable to walk or take care of myself, my hands were all twisted and distorted and pus formed under the flesh and nails. I could not use my hands even to feed myself or put on my clothing. Doctors told me there was absolutely no cure known by science that would do me any good, and gave me up to die. I was helpless and discouraged, after so many years of untold misery and pain and suffering. On June first three years ago I was recom- mended to see Mr. L. L. Parry in Pittsburgh. At that time I was help- less and given up to die. I started taking Mr. Parry's medicine and at that time my legs and hands were useless, and my neck was stiff; soon after taking the first dose of Mr. Parry's medicine my pains were not so severe. They gradually disappeared and I continued to improve. From time to time my limbs grew stronger. My hands returned to their former usefulness and my stomach trouble is one hundred (100) per cent bet- ter. To-day I can use my hands and my feet, and am a seventy-five (75) per cent cured man. I owe all the credit to Mr. Parry's medicine. Further I firmly and honestly believe in a short time Mr. Parry's medicine will make me an absolutely cured man from bodily ills. I can- not say or write anything too strong in defense of Mr. Parry's medicine. Money, treatment, and care by nurses or doctors the best obtainable have failed in my case, while Parry's medicine has almost cured me. This is true every word. To stop Mr. Parry from administering his medicine to the sick and suffering would be a calamity. To all of which I swear. Morris J.

It has surely been a Godsend and I intend to keep taking his medicine as long as possible, or until I know I am entirely well. Before taking his medicine I could hardly get around. My work was a burden to me, but now I do my own work and surely would feel safe in telling any one who is sick to go to Mr. Parry and try his wonderful medicine. I have met many people at his office who have taken and been cured by his fine medicine. We surely thank him with all our hearts, and may God bless him and his good work forever.

I was at the Allegheny General Hospital one month, but after being 194 THE CAUSE OF DISEASE out two weeks I had to be taken back again and lay there six more months until my sister took me out in the middle of April, 1914, without improvement. The doctors at the hospital told my sister that my liver and kidneys were in a very bad condition. My sister took me to Nor- way and I started to improve as soon as I left New York. I came back to America in the fall of 1914, but still was in the weak condition during the winter. I went to Norway 1st of May, 1915. In November the same year a doctor in Christiania, Norway, whom I previously had consulted, sent me to the state hospital, treating me for dropsy. My heart became badly affected, which was also the case while in the Allegheny General Hospital, and I was there until the 7th of June, 1916. My sister having in the summer heard of Mr. Parry, wrote me about him and I came back to Pittsburgh in October and started with Mr. Parry's medicine the 9th of October.

I was afflicted for about twelve years with all the ailments a woman could have and live. I took doctors' medicines until I was disgusted with life. A specialist told me the sooner I would have an operation the better. That my ovaries would have to be removed, also my appendix and gall stones. I knew my pale anemic body never could stand the operation and came home and gave up to die. A friend heard of Mr. Parry and coaxed me to try him awhile, which I did, and thank God he has sent such a man to suffering humanity. I am as sound in my inward organs as ever I was and I passed about a quart of gall stones. My general health is fine. I can do as big a day's work as any one and weigh 165 pounds, and I am a picture of perfect health. I have two girls that take the treatment. Nellie, aged 15, had tubercular lumps in her neck, and since taking Mr. Parry's treatment they are all gone and she is in perfect health. Mae, aged 10 years, had stomach trouble all her life and vomited half her time. She has taken the treatment about six months and never vomits any more and can eat anything anybody else can. She also had bronchitis all her life, but now it has all disappeared and she has a clear voice and sings solos at everything going on in our com- munity. I cannot praise Mr. Parry enough and my sincere prayer is that God will release him from prison as he did Peter and Paul and give him back to the poor suffering blind, crippled, and all manner of diseased humanity, who are depending on him for their life. Will be glad to tell the old sweet story of Mr. Parry's treatment at any time I am called. Mrs. Alice Hixon, Box 143. Sworn and subscribed before me Aug. 24, 1917. W. F. Richardson, Notary Public.

In November of 1913 I was in a bad shape; the doctors at the Mercy Hospital examined me and Dr. Buchannan refused to take my case after con- sultation with five other doctors. He said he could not locate my trouble. The following week I was taken to the S. S. Hospital and operated on by Dr. Mechlin and Dr. Bryant. After three weeks out of the hospital I was taken back again by the same two doctors. They said they could find my trouble this time, and I was feeling so bad I took an- other chance, without any success. They gave me up as incurable. Dr. Watson and Dr. Todd then took me in hand at the Presbyterian Hospital, N. S. After they got through with me I was given up as incurable. Then Dr. Buck and Dr. McCratty put me in the Homeopathic Hospital, operated on me, and I was given up to die. At last a friend came to me and said, I will take you to my doctor. I said, "There is no use." He insisted, so I went to Mr. Parry a living skeleton and as yellow as a Chinaman. Mr. Parry said to me, I can cure you, but it will take a year before you start to improve. At that time my intestine was leaking, my bladder was leaking, and my whole body was poisoned. After four unsuccessful abdominal operations these learned doctors said that nothing could save me. In less than six months after taking Mr. Parry's medicine my blad- der had healed up and has never leaked since and I have gained seventy pounds in weight and got back to my color of a white man. I feel better physically now than ever before and am still improving. I thank God and Mr. Parry for my life and health to-day, as Mr. Parry's medicine is the only thing that saved me. During the four years' treatment of my case Mr. Parry never asked me for a dollar; the doctors had their hand out all the time for money. I give this testimony with a free will. It is the whole truth and any one wishing an interview can see me at my place of business, 640 Penn Ave., Pittsburgh, Pa.

I called on a number of doctors, who all stated that my case was incurable and practically gave me up. I was advised by friends to go to Mr. Parry and take his medicine, which I did, and since then have periods of about half an hour at times which enable me to see quite a number of objects.

Before starting treatment with Mr. Parry my eye was hurt with a stone; when that happened I was six years old; it became as large as an orange. I went to a great many different doctors, and they said the only thing they could do was to remove my eye. This I would not con- sent to. When I was twenty-one years old I went to Mr. Parry, and he is the man that saved my eye. I went to the Allegheny General Hospital, and the special eye doctor there told me in order to save the good eye he would have to remove the bad one. I said I would rather die than have the eye taken out. Parry saved my eye. Now I have two good ones. I certainly thank God for what he has done for me. Josephine Macaluso.

I have been taking treatment under Mr. Leonard L. Parry for about one and a half years, with most beneficial results. Have been in ill health for years, being under the care of doctors almost constantly since early childhood. Had also spent a large amount of money and much time on osteopathic, chiropractic, electric and other treatments; was in a sani- tarium for about ten months, and escaped an operation only because in too bad physical condition to undergo one. Was unable to work regu- larly, in every case losing ground and becoming more weak and miserable until I would be compelled to give up my work and become a burden to myself and family. Finally I went to Mr. Parry because I literally knew of nothing else to do. Since commencing the treatment have had constant improvement in health, being greatly relieved of severe abdominal trouble and other physical disabilities, as well as obtaining wonderful relief from intolerable mental depression and despondency. Have worked constantly since the beginning of the treatment, and for the first time in my life am in a better condition than when I started to work. Have been more able to work, and able to do better work, being more alert mentally and hav- ing great increase in physical endurance. Mr. Parry is doing for me what no other doctor had been able to do. Other members of my family, and THE CAUSE OF DISEASE 211 friends, have been greatly benefited by his treatments. We feel that Mr. Parry is doing a great work for a large number of otherwise hopeless people, and believe that in the interest of justice and humanity he should be protected in his work. Mary P.

I was requested by friends to try Mr. Parry's treatment. I did, and am very glad of it. I praise Mr. Parry's treatments to every person who is sick and needs treatment. I have not worked for four months, with that dread- ful disease. But I will soon be able to be on duty again. I have not taken any other medicine but Mr. Parry's.

Youngstown, 0., Aug. 20, 1917. I took treatments from Leonard L. Parry for about four months, my case being paralysis, and know that I was benefited by the treatments. I was compelled to discontinue the treatments at the end of that time, through the pressure of financial affairs, which would not permit further continuous travel between Youngstown and Pittsburgh. As soon as con- ditions permit, I expect to take up the treatments again. While taking the treatments, I talked with many of his patients who had been greatly benefited through the treatments. I think it a godsend that these treat- ments can be obtained through Mr. Parry; and I believe that he should be permitted to continue doing good for humanity. Charles H. Melvin.

THE CAUSE OF DISEASE 213 Irwin, Westmoreland Co., Pa., July 17, 1917. I have been going to Mr. Parry's office for over four years. And from what I have seen in that time there is not another person in the world that deserves more credit for helping and curing suffer- ing humanity than Mr. Parry does. It is wonder- ful what he accomplishes. My case is slow rheuma- tism and no blood. When I commenced treatment four years ago, if I cut myself the cut would pain, but not a drop of blood would come out of the cut. If I squeezed the cut, a little bit of yellow water would come out, streaked with dark matter from the cut. Mr. Parry would tell me, "You are getting more blood," and I surely am, for not more than three weeks ago I cut my finger, but did not pay much attention to it, until I saw blood on the floor; when I discovered it, it was dropping from my finger. That, however, was the first blood I saw drop from my body for years. Now I am positive Mr. Parry is helping me, and will cure me in time. My trouble started about twenty-five years ago, as near as I can tell. In that time, I have had many different doctors. Was in the hospital, sanitarium, and at Mount Clemens, Mich., for treatment. Sometimes I got relief but nothing more. When I came to Mr. Parry I was not able to do my own housework. I only took a few treatments, when I was able to do my own work, and have been doing it ever since. Thanks to Mr. Parry for what he has done for me. Mrs. J. A. Bussard.

I have received treatment of Mr. L. L. Parry, and am no more an in- valid. I wore glasses for eleven years. I was treated by specialists and opticians far and near, and none of these helped me, until I went to Mr. Parry. I am speaking of many ailments from birth. I have been treated by many doctors, but they did not give me any relief, or even know what was wrong with me. I am a young woman twenty-one years of age. I have passed cancer, and a large number of gall stones, and an abscess removed without any knives or anesthetics. I also had a goitre removed, birthmarks have almost disappeared, of which I had three. For a year I was unable to straighten my right limb at night. I had to sleep with my knee up to my chin, and after receiving Mr. Parry's treatment I can now straighten out my limb, and do not walk crippled any more, and have thrown my glasses away. This treatment has done me a world of good. Miss Davina Price. 214 THE CAUSE OF DISEASE Sworn and subscribed before me this 25th day of August, 1917. Harry W. Scott, Justice of the Peace.

My trouble was a festering about my face and head and shoulders, which was very troublesome and discouraging. I tried a number of different cures, but did not receive any benefit, until I started to take Mr. Parry's medicine, and I have a different feeling in health now than I ever had before; further, I also believe if I am permitted to continue taking Mr. Parry's medicine, that I will be cured.

If it had not, we would not have taken him to Mr. Parry for fifteen months. He went for adenoids and tonsil trouble; he is- afraid of operations. I do not believe in using a knife if it can be avoided. Dallas' nose would bleed terribly. At times long strings would be discharged from his nostrils. It made his nostrils sore for a time, but he could breathe much better. Last February he was very sick with pneumonia and missed ten weeks of school. I don't see why Mr. Parry is not let alone, when he is curing so many people that doctors claimed were incurable. I have seen Mr. Parry cure many people. His cures are wonderful. Mrs. D.

The last doctor treating me said I would have to go to a hospital and undergo an operation or die. That was four years ago. I heard of Mr. Parry, and how glad I am that I went to him. I hope this good Christian man will continue giving his medicine, and not be interfered with. I have great faith in Mr. Parry's treatment and desire to still continue with his treatment. Mr. Parry has made hundreds well, and will restore hundreds more to health if only permitted to do so. Mr. Parry has cured one of my daughters of eczema, which our doctor said there was no cure for. But now she is entirely cured. Another daughter of mine who has blood poison has taken seven treatments from Mr. Parry and is almost well. I have been sick twenty-one years and do not expect to be cured in a day or a week, and like other mothers and people I want to live, and through Mr. Parry's medicine my health is a great deal better than it has been for years. My prayer to God day and night is that Mr. Parry will be allowed to continue healing the sick and curing the thousands, that we can all get his medicine and become well.

Twenty years ago I underwent a minor operation and at that time had a throbbing pain in region of right kidney, which I was told would lessen after I had gained my strength, but it continued to get worse and so painful at times I thought I would drop; that has improved and I slept all night, which was impossible before, having to get up at least five or six times during the night. Ten years ago my back under right shoulder began to trouble me. I had it examined, but the doctor could not see anything wrong. This came and went until two years ago it became so bad I could not pare enough fruit to fill a quart jar without lying down to rest. At the same time my nose became itchy, and while I was ad- vised to use a local treatment, it only allayed the trouble, which became so painful that I feared cancer. I also had trouble with my bladder, and while I had my urine examined could not find anything wrong although I felt there was something there that was not right. Through a friend I was enabled to see Mr. Parry, and after stating that I had taken care of my mother, who had passed out with cancer of liver and stomach, I have been benefited from the first dose. After the fifth dose a growth which I feel is cancerous passed from my bladder, which is becoming smaller all the time. My nose I feel will soon be well, as all pain has left. About six years ago I was overcome by the heat. The following summer and ever since that I was very careful not to go out in extremely hot weather, but this summer, thanks to Mr. Parry's medi- cine, I have been able to work out in the garden, of which I have about one acre that I have planted, weeded, and cared for myself. That is what Mr. Parry's medicine has done for me. I have been out in all kinds of weather, have one and a half hours' walk to cars, and have not missed one week. Another thing I had taken cold some fifteen years ago, which left me with bronchial trouble. I had to have Brown's mixture tablet or some other cough lozenge day and night. Since I have taken Mr. Parry's medicine I have not had to use any. My cough left me like magic. I only wish more could be reached and helped as I have been and I feel I will be entirely cured if I can continue without interruption. Which I hope and pray not only for myself but the thousands of others afflicted. I have tried to make everything plain, which I find it hard to do, as there is so much to be told. It seems hardly possible to be brief. I hope my attempt will help to bring about the pardon of Mr. Parry. Mrs. Emma Clemens, R. F. D. No. 1.

In January, 1916, at the close of the menopause, I began to have aggravated condition of the uterus, which was soon followed by a discharge so poisonous in its nature that I became almost a nervous wreck. I was scarcely able to do anything or go anywhere. Early in September, 1916, I began taking Mr. L. L. Parry's medicine. My general health is very much improved. Since January, 1917, I have had no dis- charge nor any of its attending conditions. I hope to be allowed to continue this wonderful treatment until I am entirely cured. Mrs. Geo. B.

Parry's patients, which I am very glad that I am, for Mr. Parry has done a great deal of good for me for the short time I have been going to him to receive his medicine. I have been very sick for the last six years and I have tried all kinds of doctors and I could not begin to tell how many I had, for I have tried so many differ- ent ones, and I was also in the Homeopathic Hospital for six weeks. I went through an operation and nothing did me any good. They also took X-ray pictures of my insides and could not find out the trouble with me. I was so bad that I then had given up all hopes. I saw that I could not be cured. One day a friend of mine came to me and said that she was going to Mr. Parry. She told me to go and try his medicine, so I went and tried his medicine, by which I was very much surprised, and I cannot to this day understand it, for I was sick for six years and went through all that I did and nothing did me any good until I took the first dose of Mr. Parry's medicine, of which I will say that the first dose helped me. I had relief after I had taken it. I kept on going to Mr. Parry, for he has helped me so much. I cannot thank him enough for it. I have been going to Mr. Parry for nine and a half months and I have gained twelve pounds. I am now doing all my own work. I am very much better.

THE CAUSE OF DISEASE Swissvale, Pa., Aug. 8, 1917. Have been a druggist for the past twenty years and member of the Braddock Drug Association for fifteen years. Throughout this time have suffered at intervals from subacute attacks of rheumatism. Two years ago it went to my heart, causing valvular and muscular heart trouble, and I then became unable to work. One Dr. Grave gave me two weeks to live, another a few months, but said I would never be able to work again. Last October I heard of Mr. Parry and after taking the third dose of his medicine, which is taken weekly, I worked two days and from then on I worked at intervals until March. Since then I have worked six to eight hours a day every day, Sunday included, not missing one day. My own family physician advises me to continue the treatments, as he knows of nothing that could or would produce that decided change for the bet- ter which he finds in me. I personally know of at least ten people of good standing who have had similar experiences. For myself, I fear six months when I would be unable to obtain this medicine by reason of his being confined in the penitentiary and consider the verdict very unjust to him and his patients. H. L.

Mr. Parry should be allowed to treat the suffering public that doctors have turned down as incurable. I know of several patients who have been entirely cured by his medicine. On account of the court trouble we were compelled to wait until it was settled, and we hope that Mr. Parry will be able to continue his treatments to all of us who are suffering patients.

With all my troubles and. sicknesses I could not find of all the doctors of Pittsburgh one doctor that could cure me. With almost four years of suffering I hardly ate anything through the day. I did not feel like eat- ing. I have been getting worse and worse every day and could not do anything in the house. I had to hire a woman to do everything in the house for me. I have had stomach, liver, nerve and blood trouble. My blood started to get like water; it was not pure. Since I have been taking Mr. Parry's treatment I have been in fine condition and good health. I have gained in every way. God bless Mr. Parry for the treat- ment he gave me. I wish he could live all the time, so he could cure 226 THE CAUSE OF DISEASE every one in the world. I could assure you as a witness I saw people blind taking Mr. Parry's treatment for some time and they were cured. Now they don't go around the streets with canes. You may say blind people can't be cured, but Mr. Parry's treatments are curing them and already cured them. I have a son that has suffered with consumption and every winter for some months he would suffer in bed. Since I have taken him to Mr. Parry he is in good condition, feeling better than he was. He is not sick in bed any more. I hope Mr. Parry will succeed in every way and God bless Mr. Parry forever. Mrs. P. Pagano. Sworn to and subscribed before me Aug. 29, 1917. Wm. A. Means, Aiderman.

Would take spells that I had to walk. Would have to keep out in the air. It seemed as if I would smother if I stayed in- doors. Would take the spells night or day. Would have to walk until I wore myself out, before I could sleep. These spells would last for hours. My eyesight got so bad I thought I was going blind. I could not read, and could not get any glasses to suit me at all. I could not distinguish people until they were close to me. I went to two physicians here in Negley, one at East Palestine, Lisbon, and East Liverpool, but the only relief I got was while the drugs lasted that they gave me. After taking several treatments from Mr. Parry my nerves got all right. I can read with glasses as well as usual. I am in my seventy- third year, and consider myself a well man. Thanks to Mr. Parry, for the other doctors just gave me temporary relief. I recommended John Gaston of Clarkson, Ohio, who was very ill with stomach trouble, to Mr. Parry. After taking treatment from Mr. Parry Mr. Gaston is a well man to-day.

I want to let people know what good Mr. L. L. Parry has done my girl. She was paralyzed for seven years in her right leg from the hip down, and now she can walk, and has the use of her limb. We had her to Dr. Inks of Crafton, who said it was no use. We also took her to our family doctor, Dr. Golden, who is a very good doctor, who also said there is no use, he could do nothing for her. We also took her to Dr. Black. None of these could help her. I myself through Mr. Parry's medicine had a cancer removed. Parry's medicine is good.

I am a poor deaf widow, without a home. Why are they making so much trouble for Mr. Parry, when he does so much good for humanity? I have been ailing between twenty-six and twenty-seven years, with that dreadful neuralgia, which I had to have a doctor for almost every ten days. I even went out West for two years. Doctors out there said there was no one in this world that could cure me; another said he would not have my sickness for a fortune. Since I have taken Mr. Parry's medicine I have gotten rid of that dreadful neuralgia, which made me deaf. I still believe if I continue on I will get to hear some better. I am fifty years old, and I cannot expect to get cured as quick as a young person. It is slow, but a sure cure; it. all depends upon how long you have been ailing, and your age. Why always bother a man that does so much good to the poor? He never asked for pay; his only wish is to help humanity, and you can give as you like. Caith Hunger, 194 Anthony St., Mt.

I have had catarrh of the head and throat for fifteen years. I took treatment from Dr. Mullen. I got only temporary relief. I cannot recall how long I took treatment from him, but quit after spending twenty-five dollars. I have tried other patent medicines, but found little relief from them, so I quit spending money for something that was useless. Often I was scarcely able to work, but since taking Mr. Parry's medicine, thank God, I am able to work again, and do so without a thought of how I am going to finish my work. Work to me now is a pleasure, instead of a burden. I do not go every week for Mr. Parry's medicine; it is sometimes two or three weeks before I go to take treatment. I can assure you it has not cost me $25 either. Often I had a little over car-fare to spend. Doctors won't treat 236 THE CAUSE OF DISEASE you unless you have the price to pay them, and pay for medicine as well. It is a charitable act for Mr. Parry, and no jury should convict him. Mr. Parry does not send for us, we go to him for his medicine of our own free will. Why then should they even think of trying Mr. Parry for curing humanity, what the best of doctors cannot do, for they often make mistakes. Mary Cushman.

My daughter went to him first; she told me to go along, but I thought I was too old to get relief. I have been doctoring for fifteen years and never got any relief until I went to Mr. Parry. Now I work all day, and also work every day, and my work is very hard. I could not work all day before going to Mr. Parry.

When I first went to Mr. Parry I was sick from head to foot. I got no relief until I met him. I can now work every day and feel fine. I would do anything for him, for Mr. Parry has certainly been a good friend to me.' I doctored for years with Dr. Painter of Irwin, Pa., and other doctors also. They could not tell me what my troubles were. And it is a wonder that I 238 THE CAUSE OF DISEASE am living yet. But Mr. Parry helped me wonderfully and I am still here. My little girl six years old was very sick when I took her to Mr. Parry. Before that doctors who were treating her said she would grow out of it, but she did not. But now after taking Mr. Parry's medicine she is all right. I have been taking treatment for one year, and now feel all right. I hope Mr. Parry lives many years longer to cure others who suffer.

I was totally blind for fourteen years; my eyes were treated by numerous physicians, but I received no results. My case seemed hopeless. After taking treatment from Mr. Leonard L. Parry, of 1125 Penn Ave., Pittsburgh, Pa., for four weeks my sight began to come slowly, but now I have a perfect vision. I never worked a day in my life before taking Mr. Parry's medicine, but since taking his medicine I have been working in a kitchen for Mr. Clarence Clark, at 626 Smithfield St., Pittsburgh, Pa., in a restaurant, for the past six months. I trust that this affidavit will fall into the hands of some one in authority, who will stop to think what it would mean to be in total darkness, and then be able to see God's sunlight. If Mr. Parry, with God's help, never did any more than to take me, just one patient, out of darkness into light, would he deserve to sit in darkness for giving me my sight?

Commonwealth of Pennsylvania,' County of Allegheny, •SS: Before me, the subscriber, a notary public, in and for said county and State, personally appeared A. L. Klaus of No. 10 W. Stockton Avenue, Pittsburgh, Pa., who, being duly sworn according to law, doth depose and say: I am a citizen of the State of Pennsylvania, was born in the city of Allegheny, and during my whole life have lived in Allegheny County, have had a vast experience in business for about forty years, in various lines, manufacturing, mercantile, banking and brokerage business, and lastly as expert accountant. I was employed by J. Willock Brown of 617 Berger Building, Attorney at Law and Manager for Mr. L. L. Parry, early in June, 1915. My duties were to first systematize a card index file, and then to keep a record of all applicants who applied for Mr. Parry's medicines; the duties connected therewith were to get the names of the applicants, their age and ailments, by whom last treated, operations if any, and the name of the hospital and doctors performing the operation, and explain to the applicants the system in vogue, namely, that no charge was made for Mr. Parry's medicine, but they could contribute whatever amount they saw fit, that it was entirely a donation proposition, I was advised and assured by Mr. Broton that this method was strictly within the la/w; notwithstanding these assurances a 240 THE CAUSE OF DISEASE raid was made on the premises in April, 1916. The officer who had the raid in charge had, so far as my knowledge went, no warrant to enter the premises, and no warrant to make any arrests; however, arrests were made, and subsequently charges made against Mr. Parry for practicing medicine without a license, and Mr. Parry and all of the employees for conspiracy, the charge of conspiracy being promptly ignored by the grand jury. In the raid of the premises 1125 Penn Avenue, Pittsburgh, Pa., the offi- cers in charge took by force seven or eight baskets full of bottles containing specimens of cancers, gall stones, etc., which were removed from the bodies of the many sick taking Mr. Parry's medicine, and which are a silent proof of the most wonderful results obtained, and testifies to the capacity of Mr. Parry to heal the sick; they also took his Bible used in his daily religious services, also among the many things taken were upward of 10,000 record cards, each card representing an applicant, and which is further proof of the many sufferers seeking relief of Mr. Parry. Left as I was without any records of the many people taking Mr. Parry's treatment, it became necessary to get the names of the former patrons, or as many as possible; that duty devolved on me. I secured upward of 2,000 names. I was anxious to know what benefit these people were receiving; as I took their names, I asked them all in person as to whether or not they had received any relief from Mr. Parry's medicine; the replies were by fully 90 per cent of the number asked that they had been benefited, some few stating that they had not noticed any improvement, but, when I asked them the question as to how long they were taking the medicine, invariably the answer would be, just a few times, hardly long enough to note any change. During the lapse of time from the date of Mr. Parry's arrest until June 19, 1916, there was a perfect clamor by the many patrons for Mr. Parry's medicines, many sympathetic appeals were made, claims of fear being shown by those benefited that they would again go back to their former condition of suffering, would lose all they had gained; a more depressed people I have never seen; they became cheerless and melancholy and were in a pitiable condition; the reverse of this state of feeling happened when they realized that they again could get the Parry medicines, the great faith in Mr. Parry and his medicine changed these morbid people to one of extreme happiness and cheerfulness, showing a feeling of confidence that they would get entirely well. On June 19, 1916, the Parry medicines were again dispensed by Dr. George B. Kline to the sick at No. 1125 Penn Avenue, Pittsburgh, Pa., Dr. Kline being a regularly graduated physician and registered in Allegheny County, State of Pennsylvania. Soon it became known, and the multitude of former patrons of Mr. Parry came rushing to get what is known as the Parry treatment. I was again retained as record clerk, under the direction of Dr. Kline, my duties differing somewhat from heretofore; all applicants first apply to me, the same as before; I then take the name, the address and age on an application card, then direct the applicant to Dr. Kline. The number of application cards written since June 19, 1916, now aggre- gates at this date, Sept. 6, 1917, seven thousand nine hundred forty-seven (7,947), which is the number of patients treated since June 19, 1916; of this number many have been cured, and at the present time there are THE CAUSE OF DISEASE 241 being treated on an average of twenty-eight hundred (2,800) in three days and a half (3%), which constitutes the week. All classes of people are accepted and treated, no matter what their nationalities or creed may be, the rich and poor alike'; no one is rejected because of the lack of funds; they receive the same courtesy as those who donate; no discrimination is made. Inasmuch as all people applying for the Parry treatment must first come to me, I am in a position to note their condition, and listen to the volun- tary statements they make, which prompted them to come for the Parry medicine. Many stated that they have doctored so long with various phys- icians without relief and were finally informed that nothing more could be done for them, that they had but a short time to live; many also stated that their doctors advised an operation, which they absolutely refused to listen to; that in either case it was a question of death, and therefore preferred to take a chance with Mr. Parry. Many who have taken that chance still live, and are on the road to recovery. Since my time of employment in connection with Mr. Parry, I have observed many suffering people afflicted with all kinds of diseases. I have noticed that the blind were made to see, the lame to walk, the deaf to hear, wrecked nerves restored, skin diseases cured, cancers and gall stones have been removed, many suffering with stomach and kidney trouble have been cured, insanity cured, the tottering and weak made strong, and vari- ous other diseases cured. Mr. Parry is a magnanimous man, a big man and a man with a big heart; he is highly respected by men, women, and children alike, esteemed, cherished, and adored by all of the patients in the past, and all patients of the present time. He is a philanthropist, exceptionally good to the poor, and a cheerful giver. A religious man, in fact a religionist, a man of education, not a college graduate, but a man of more than ordinary intelli- gence, well versed in medicines, perhaps more than many of our physicians; he does not live in affluence, but leads just a plain, quiet, simple life. From what I have seen and know of the afflicted thousands, and of the many who got relief from and through Mr. Parry, and the many who are eager to continue the Parry treatment, and the many lamentations by them, as to what will become of them, if by any act they would be com- pelled to discontinue the Parry treatment. In behalf of these suffering people and in my own behalf, I most earnestly appeal for clemency for Mr. Parry, and pray that this great man may be given legal power to continue to heal the sick. A. L.

I have suffered for many years with nervous troubles and had never been able to stand any work or strain, without becoming exhausted. I could not digest my food properly and suffered with severe headaches and sour stomach nearly all the time. In January of this year I consulted a nerve specialist and after a thor- ough diagnosis was told that there was absolutely no help for me, except to rest constantly and not exert myself in any way. Was to spend twenty hours out of twenty-four in bed, and follow the diet prepared for me. They said I would never be any better, and could never expect to do things like other people, such as to attend to my household duties, or go to amusements. About two weeks after this visit to the specialist, I heard of Mr. Parry and his cures. I decided to take the medicine, but had no hope that it would do any good. After taking four or five doses I felt so much better that I could go around all day and eat whatever I wanted without feeling the least bit distressed. In less than two months I was able to do all my housework, the washing and ironing included, without any help, and in the evening I can go out to visit or to amusements, with- out feeling any more fatigue than any one doing the same amount of work would. I have been taking the medicine about six months and am far better than I ever hoped to be, or was ever informed by the M.D.'s that I could be. I am only too glad to state the above facts for publication, if it will help to make it easier for Mr. Parry to carry on his wonderful work. My case is by no means the worst I have seen respond to the medicine, for I have seen some people helped and cured that you could only believe it when you actually saw it accomplished under your own eyes. Humanity is being greatly benefited by Mr. Parry, and it would be a great misfortune and indeed would be wrong to prevent him from doing the wonderful work he is doing. He is practically giving life back to thousands of people whose cases have been given up as hopeless by physicians and specialists. May God grant that he will be able to continue his good work for my own family's benefit as well as thousands of others. Mrs. H. P. Reilly, 7238 Mt. Vernon St., Pittsburgh, Pa.

That she has been sick for about six years and during that time has had several physicians to exam- ine her, each one pronouncing her trouble as "sugar diabetes," and saying there was no cure for the disease, and nothing they could do to help her; that for about eight months she suffered intensely with an itch which the doctors claimed was the sugar in the blood which had been carried out through her system, and when the medicine prescribed for a relief from this itch failed to afford any relief, and she became nearly distracted, the doctor said the only thing would be to administer an opiate when the itch was severe, and after using other salves and ointments which failed to give her relief, she realized that the only help would be opiates. She was becoming so weak that she could scarcely walk across the street without a cane to help her, but at this time she heard of L. L. Parry, and although almost too weak to make the trip, went to Pittsburgh with her daughter 244 THE CAUSE OF DISEASE and took Mr. Parry's medicine, which medicine she is taking at the pres- ent time once a week.

In some instances we have found a complete cure, and others are on the way to recovery, but have not been taking medicine long enough to have the desired effects. My wife had lost the use of her left hand through a fall and broke her wrist. Doctor set the same, but she never could use it until she took Mr. Parry's medicine. Now she can use it the same as if nothing had happened to it. I, J. P.

It is now about three years since I have been afflicted with stomach and lung trouble. I had consulted a number of doctors and they prescribed for me, but none has given me any relief. I became discouraged and con- cluded that I would try Mr. Parry's treatment. I have done so, and the result is, I am cured, the cough that I have had, caused from my lungs, has disappeared, and I have no more stomach trouble, this is what Mr. Parry's medicine has done for me. I have a little son, now five years old, who was in a most deplorable condition; he could not walk, was blind, and covered with a mass of sores from his head to his feet, and was speechless. The doctors told me that he could live only a short time. I persuaded Mr. Parry to treat him, and the result is that to-day little Felix can walk, can see, can talk, and his skin is perfectly clean, not a blemish can be seen. My little daughter Mary, aged seven years, has had stomach trouble. I took her to doctors and spent quite a sum of money for treatment, but to no avail. I then took her to Mr. Parry, on April 23, 1917, and since taking Mr. Parry's medicine her stomach trouble is entirely cured.

I wish to truthfully state that I had been an invalid for three years, all of that time under my family physician's care and treatment, also had been examined by two of the city's best specialists, and all pronounced me incurable. In January, 1915, I was given from two days to two weeks to live. I was told by these physicians that an operation would be useless. THE CAUSE OF DISEASE 249 as my ailments were complicated; besides, my condition was such that it would be a question as to whether I would live or not. I was taken to Mr. Parry's office on the fifth of January, 1915, by friends, and on that day received my first treatment.

I went to Dr. Mossgrove, a specialist, and he operated upon my nose; as this brought no results, he insisted I should have another operation. Instead I went to Dr. Maxon. I received no results from him. I had this trouble or illness for four years. I went to Mr. Parry; the very first dose of his medicine helped me. I have had five doses, and am about rid of my sneez- ing, and am improving in general health very rapidly. Mrs. Philip Geary, 803 Market St., Steubenville, O.

I was almost discouraged with life until a friend induced me to try Mr. Parry. I took my first dose of Mr. Parry's medicine August 16, 1916, and I have not had a rheumatic pain since, and have been able to work steadier than I have for years.

I went to several doctors and got no relief. I then went to a specialist, but on account of my occupation as a locomotive engineer and being exposed to all kinds of weather, he could not promise to cure me.

It gives me the greatest pleasure to have an opportunity to publish what Mr. Parry's medicine has done for me. I have been suffering for years from that loathsome disease known as catarrh. Have taken all kinds of treatments, both liquid, powder, and vapor, also numerous salves, but with the same result. Gradually my case became worse. I could find nothing that would even relieve me. Several medical men said there was a growth in the head that must be removed. A very disagreeable odor came from my nose and throat; the mucus was constantly coming from my nose and throat so badly that I needed four handkerchiefs daily to take care of it. My hands and feet perspired exces- sively, and when I removed my shoes the house would be saturated with perspiration. My eyesight began to fail so that I had to wear glasses in January of this year. My hearing also began to fail. The wax would not remain in the ears, and I always had a dull feeling and ringing sound in my head. Life indeed was a burden. I could not sleep at night until I had lain in bed several hours, and when I awoke I felt tired and nervous. Contrast this with my present condition. After taking Mr. Parry's medicine since April 2, 1917, my hearing and eyesight are becoming stronger; the mucus has nearly all disappeared from the nose and throat, and the head noise has disappeared also, likewise the strong odor. The hands and feet do not perspire so readily. It is seldom that I do not sleep at night and awake feeling better than ever I can remember feeling before. Mr. Parry's medicine has certainly been my salvation. J. A. Corbett, 1625 Antrim St., N. S. Pittsburgh, Pa. 254 THE CAUSE OF DISEASE Sworn and subscribed before me this 10th day of September, 1917.

Turtle Creek, Allegheny Co., Pa., Sept. 12, 1917. Words cannot express my gratitude and appreciation for what Mr. Leonard L. Parry's medicine has done for me. I have suffered for twelve years with stomach trouble, terrible head- aches and nervousness. At times life was a burden. I was unable to look after my home or do my work. It was impossible for me to eat certain kinds of foods. I spent a great deal of money seeking relief from many good doctors, and took treatment from the following doctors, without obtaining any relief whatever: Drs. Meals of Braddock, Smith of Turtle Creek, and Baer of Braddock, all of whom did all they could to give me some relief but of no avail. As a total stranger I entered Mr. Parry's establishment on Monday, June 12, 1916, at 4:30 P. M. Was given a dose of medicine, and was not even asked for one cent. I became sick and was escorted to a clean bed and was attended by nurses, who were kind, considerate, and very cour- teous, and showed me every possible attention from 5 P. M. until IIP. M., during which time I vomited up a great deal of matter from deep in the stomach, and also three pieces of cancer that had roots on them similar to young grass roots. THE CAUSE OF DISEASE 259 After taking the first dose of Mr. Parry's medicine I gradually began to improve in health and strength. I am still taking his medicine and have improved 95 per cent., and feel better than I have for many years. My stomach trouble has disappeared almost entirely. I do not have those severe headaches any more, and my nervous condition has wonder- fully improved. My health in general since taking Mr. Parry's medicine has made such great improvements in my physical condition that my friends often speak of the wonderful change in my health and appearance. I am the mother of four children, and to-day I do all my own work and am able to look after my family at all times, and life to-day is a blessing instead of a burden to me. I owe all of my change in health to Mr. Parry's medicine, and thank God for such a man. For now I can eat anything and enjoy my meals at all times. My daily prayer is that Almighty God will protect and sustain Mr. Parry in his wonderful work in healing the sick, as I have met many who like myself could find no relief until they had taken this good man's treat- ment. And many have been absolutely cured whom I have met. I hope the authorities of this State, as well as any men or set of men either organized or otherwise, before taking any further action or inter- fering with Mr. Parry from healing the sick, will thoroughly investigate what great good he is doing for suffering humanity and the State, as well as. curing hundreds of mothers who have homes and children to look after, who could find no other relief. Personally, I desire to thank Mr. Parry and his nurses for what they have done for me. These people are devoting their time not for money alone, but following the Golden Rule, and may God bless Mr. Parry's establishment and his help, and protect these good people from all inter- ference, and further, those that are prosecuting Mr. Parry may use some common sense, and remember hundreds of mothers have been restored to health, home, and happiness, when all others have failed, until they took Mr. Parry's treatment.

From October, 1915, I have been ill, and my family and consulting physicians failed to properly diagnose my case, and I gradually got worse until January, 1917. For more than eighteen months I was unable to do my own housework, and was advised by my doctors to go to a hospital for an operation, as they claimed that would be the only relief for me. Instead of following the doctors' advice, I took the advice of many persons whom I knew that were taking Mr. Parry's medicine, and I took the same. After taking Mr. Parry's medicine I started to do my housework in March, 1917, and have done so ever since, and to-day am feeling like a new woman, and I trust that more of the suffering people can be able to get Mr. Parry's treatment.

Very re- cently, before my coming to him, I had my tonsils and appendix removed, both of which operations I feel could have been avoided had I known of Mr. Parry at the time they were removed. When I became his patient I was suffering from a severe case of catarrh of the head and stomach and a bad set of nerves. I have improved wonderfully along these lines and have confidence in a complete cure. My earnest desire is that "Dad" may be successful in securing a license that will enable him to pursue, in peace and safety, his course of healing the masses. F. R. Westlake.

Avella, Washington Co., Pa., Sept. 13, 1917. I have been afflicted with catarrh, as diagnosed by the physicians, for more than forty years. After spending much money with them and trying other remedies, which were recommended by others, I received no benefit therefrom, and was told by my last physician that I would have to quit working, and be very careful of excitement of any kind, as I had valvular heart trouble, and any excitement would be fatal. I also had a brother who was given up by the physicians to die in ten days from liver trouble. My brother, hearing of Mr. Parry's wonderful cures, went to him and started treatment and in sixteen treatments he passed four inward cancers from the liver, stomach, and bowels. Seeing the wonderful results my brother was receiving, I also started taking treatment from Mr. Parry. Now, after sixteen months' treatment I am an entirely new man. I feel better than I did at the age of 25 years, and to-day can do as much work as I ever did. And further, I recommend Mr. L. L. Parry's treat- ment to all suffering humanity. J. C. McCreary.

The last doctor I had, two years ago, told me it was no use to take my money, as he could do me no good. I heard of Mr. Parry and I went to him and took his medicine, and he has done me a lot of good.

I had cancer of the stomach and bowels and womb, and dropsy. I was swollen enormously, my leg burst, and I could not walk without a cane. I have tried specialists in several States, but was unable to find any relief whatever. Since taking Mr. Parry's medicine I have passed cancers, the swelling is all gone and now I can walk well. Stand on my feet and wash all day. Prior to taking Mr. Parry's treatment, I could not eat, but am now able to eat well. Before taking Mr. Parry's medicine I had not eaten a pickle or potato for thirty-five years. Can eat them now, and anything else I want. Tillie Walker.

L. Parry for three years, and am improving more and more every day. I suffered with my stomach, also headaches, and my lower limb was numb and at times would ache. I suffered thus ten years. I used to get severe headaches every other day. Now I have had the headache about six times in the last three years, dur- ing the time I took treatment from Mr. Parry. 264 THE CAUSE OF DISEASE No doctor could do me as much good as Mr. Parry has done through his treatment. Prior to taking the Parry treatment, I took treatment from Dr. Swope, a specialist, for three months, and he did not do me a bit of good. Many thanks to Mr. Parry. My sister also takes Mr. Parry's treatment, and has done so for the past three years. Her trouble is liver trouble; she used to be real yellow, and suffered much with dizziness, and no circulation through the body, and at times she thought she would get paralyzed, as she would become numb. The numbness has all disappeared now, and the dizziness is entirely gone. She doctored with many different doctors for the past six- teen years, but found no relief, and was continually getting worse until she met Mr. Parry and took his treatment. Then she began to get relief. After the first treatment from Mr. Parry she was able to do her house- work and is doing so to-day,. and feeling fine. Her little daughter, nine years old, had infantile paralysis when three and a half years old. Doctors were unable to help her any. So we took her to Mr. Parry, and he has helped her wonderfully. She was hardly able to stand and dragged her limbs, and she had no color in her face. Now she can walk as well as any other child and can even jump the rope. She has taken Mr. Parry's treatment for three years and is getting along fine. Mrs. Annie Casper, Mary Casper, 124 Stewart St., St. Clair Boro., Mt. Oliver Sta., Pa.

Eighteen months prior to May 10, 1913, I suffered with a nervous break- down. I treated with one of the best physicians I could get, all of no avail. My blood became badly diseased; my physician said I could not be cured. I did not like to leave my boy. I heard of Mr. Parry, and called upon him on the above date, and took his medicine. While my case was serious, and I could hear people say that I could not live, as my condition was terrible, I thank God and Mr. Parry for my wonderful recovery; while it was slow, I am happy to say I can now do my house- work with pleasure, and other work besides, being very proud of it. I certainly cannot say too much for Mr. Parry's treatment. I have seen and talked with hundreds of people, with numerous kinds of ailments, that have been cured by Mr. Parry's treatment. I trust Mr. Parry will be able to continue helping suffering humanity in healing the sick. Long live Mr. Parry is my wish and prayer. Katharine Sheidy, Tarentum, Pa.

I took Mr. Parry's medicine, and got relief the first week I took it; have been improving ever since. I am 54 years old and I am sure I have no regrets to make that I took his treatment. I only wish there were more men in the world to help the poor sick and suffering as Mr. Parry has done.

Upon a further examination my case was pronounced as dangerous and that I was too far gone to be operated upon, and I was returned home to die, as the doctors said I would only live about two months. Hearing of Mr. Parry, I went to him on July 9, 1917, for treatment. Now I am doing my own work and can ride for miles in a car over rough roads and am feeling fine, and also looking fine.

I hereby make a statement, and also will testify in court if necessary. Having a daughter ailing for a period of two years or more under a physician's care and obtaining no results, I decided to take her to Mr. Parry. In the first interview he claimed that she could be cured, saying that the trouble was her stomach and gall stones. She continued making visits for eight months, at which time she passed about twenty-five gall stones, varying in size, and continued improving after a few trips after this passage. I have known other patients to obtain same results. I would be very sorry to learn that Mr. Parry would be compelled to discontinue helping these poor unfortunate people, whom the physician cannot give relief, let alone cure.

I became afflicted about seven years ago so badly that I scarcely was able to move. I called on two doctors, was advised to go to a hospital. I first went to one and then another. I got no relief from any one of the doctors, and absolutely no relief from either hospital. After coming from the hospitals, I was compelled to wear an iron and leather brace, and managed to get around a little by the use of crutches. I was getting ready to go to the Home of Incurables; it was at this time I heard of Mr. Parry. I went to him and took his medicine; after the twelfth treatment, I discarded the braces and crutches, and after the sixteenth treatment I went to work, now three years ago, and have worked every day since, not losing a single day. My general health has improved eighty per cent since taking Mr. Parry's treatment. I certainly owe my present good condition to Mr. Parry, and I thank God that I learned of him and his medicine, and I trust that no inter- vention may arise that will be detrimental to him and the many sufferers that seek relief of him.

I went under an operation for liver trouble and gall stones, and was pronounced incurable by Dr. McCallan at the Homeopathic Hospital. I also doctored with Dr. Welsh at Leechburg, but he gave me no relief, only seemed to make me worse. These doctors told my husband they never saw anybody in such a bad shape as I was. Dr. McCallan wanted to perform another operation, but he said it would be useless, as I could not live more than two or three months. I then began taking Mr. Parry's treat- ment and cannot thank him enough for what he has done for me. I feel like a new woman.

I used an atomizer four times a week before going to Mr. Parry, but now I have not used one for nearly three years. I was also bothered with female troubles and am now cured.

This is the first year in six years that I have been enabled to go along with my work without going to Kane, Pa. Whatever the influences are against Mr. Parry, I think they should be thoroughly investigated and all bias set to one side. I have no particular interest in Mr. Parry, except that I know of hun- dreds of cases which have come under my personal supervision, more especially with my own employees, and I can only testify in their behalf, the same as I can in this particular case.

I got so bad I could not eat a thing but dried bread and skimmed milk. When I heard of Mr. Parry's wonderful cures a Mrs. Garver brought me to him and after the very first dose of medicine I ate ham and eggs, and it never hurt me at all. After the third dose I got rid of what the doctors said were the abscesses on my stomach and from that time on have never had a pain. I also had catarrh, which is practically cured. I have gained in flesh since I started taking Mr. Parry's medicine, and I can say quite a lot more for his medicine than I can write, but it would take too long.

Martin, R.F.D. No. 4, Burgettstown, Pa. Sworn and subscribed before me this 8th day of October, 1917. W. H. Baumann, Notary Public. My commission expires Jan. 22, 1921. Pittsburgh, Pa., Oct. 10, 1917. I have doctored for nine years with various physicians and got no relief. I had liver trouble, severe headaches and was bilious. It is now about three years since I started to take the Parry medicine, and after the first dose I began to get well. Now I have no liver trouble, no more head- aches, and no more bilious attacks. At the present time I feel fine, never felt better in my life. Mrs. Mary Trousky, 2832 Mary St., Pittsburgh, Pa. Sworn and subscribed before me this 10th day of October, 1917. W. H. Baumann, Notary Public. My commission expires Jan. 22, 1921. Pittsburgh, Pa., July 27, 1917. I have been taking Mr. Parry's medicine for some time, and have been greatly benefited by it. When I started to Mr. Parry I was a nervous wreck. I doctored with Dr. Caldwalder of Wexford before going to Mr. 278 Parry. Now not only myself, but others, need his medicine as well as I. These statements I swear to. Miss Clarissa Marshall, 25 Campbell Alley, N. S. Pittsburgh, Pa. Sworn and subscribed before me this 23d day of August, 1917. C. B. Milligan, Notary Public.
