The Conclusion of the Matter.—Seventeen years of steady and faithful trial upon sixty thousand different people has given ample opportunity to establish for Compound Oxygen these several positions as true. It is the vital part of the atmosphere made very potent, being made magnetic during the process of manufacture.
Compound Oxygen has three distinct modes of action upon the human organism: 1. Its mechanical action, in that it increases very much the respiratory function over that of ordinary breathing. This increased action is felt all over the body at once, because the lungs are just as universally present in the whole body by their rhythmical vibration as the heart is by the ramification of its blood-vessels. 2. Its chemical action, in that the solvent character of the atmosphere is greatly increased by the magnetic property of the Compound Oxygen; hence the blood is more efficiently purified by the more rapid solution and ejection of carbon—the worn-out tissues of the body ever present; hence it dissolves and eliminates from the system many deleterious substances, which otherwise are very difficult of ejection. In this way it relieves the body of its poisonous foreign tenants, malaria, quinine, mercury, uric acid, excess of bile, and is the deadly enemy of the now dreaded bacilli. 3. Its vital action. This latter is vastly more important than the two former, and without it the Compound Oxygen would not work any such results as we have produced. Pure oxygen possesses the first two properties, but not this third one.
This vital action is directly upon the brain, spinal marrow, and the ganglia of the sympathetic system of nerves. These great nervous centres seize upon this wonderful compound, appropriate it, and thereby become larger, more robust, and more active.
As these centres generate all the vitality there is in the whole man (and normal vitality is health), is it strange that nearly all the maladies (these depend upon deficient, disordered vitality)—so multitudinous in their manifestations—should be made to give way before the steady march of our newly-generated vital forces? And, when the victory is won, the peace of sound health should be permanent.

"It is now six weeks since I commenced the use of your Compound Oxygen Treatment, and with the exception of the slight attack I wrote you about in my last letter, I have had no asthma. I am feeling quite well, sleep well, appetite somewhat improved, can get up hill now without puffing, and I have lost one little companion who has not forsaken me before for ten years. I know he, she, or it is gone, because I don't hear the whistling with which I was constantly reminded of its presence. You just ought to know how an asthmatic enjoys (from Compound Oxygen) on retiring at night that there are eight (yes, as many as he may wish to indulge in) hours of sweet unbroken and refreshing sleep in store for him; yes, a thing so unusual. How strange it does appear! I am doing as well
