o read. He made a beautiful
convalescence and a perfect recovery. He is now with his wife and
children at home, transacting his business as a normal and sane man.
Since 90 per cent of insanity cases and 75 per cent of divorce cases are
due to diseased glands, I may be pardoned for holding out hope to a
vast, hopeless class, numbered at over 3,000,000 Americans.
+Sterility Is Banished.+ As a rule the women who come to me for
treatment prefer to bear male children. In such cases it is essential
that they should receive the interstitial glands of the male goat. We
have in hospital at the moment, however, a childless married woman of
twenty-eight, who wishes devoutly for a female child. We found her
sterile of a natural gland and inserted the gland of a female goat. Her
transformation has been remarkable, and I am confident her first child
will be a girl.
You naturally ask about the future, which can only be premised. Women
who have received male goat-glands will continue to bear male children,
if any; those that receive the female goat glands will continue to bear
girl babies. The future carries a promise of much information to be
gleaned along this line. I cannot say what would happen if the husband
were to receive male goat glands and the wife female goat glands. Their
progeny might or might not be mixed. We will try it on any sterile
couple that desires, knowing positively that normal children of one or
both sexes will result.
Where substitution of glands of any character is essential, they should
be taken from the goat operated upon immediately before the human
implanting, and be inserted at once. Glands should not be taken from the
ape or other animal for human use. The goat is immune to tuberculosis,
He is a clean animal, full of health and vitality. Apes are very subject
to tuberculosis. One can never tell whether an ape is diseaseless or
not. It is generally unlawful to substitute our human glands, and, even
though they could be readily obtained, they are apt to be infected with
some disease.
The essential element of foods is the vitamin, a nitrogenous substance
of indeterminate nature. Without it we would starve, though eating
plenty of proteins, carbo-hydrates, fats, salts and water. Nothing will
sustain life if the vitamins are absent from the diet. Goat's milk
contains these important substances in greater abundance than any other
animal food.
