Cancer can be cured at home by the Electro Magnette Absorbent method. All pains and odor annihilated inside of 24 hours, and a perfect cure in a short time.

This method is not new but has been in use since the beginning of time. The Ancients applied mineral earth and the Indians now use it to absorb all poisons. A few years ago our Hospitals and Physicians used dry clay for this purpose. Why did they abandon it? Perhaps they thought the knife better, but this is not so.

We have used this method successfully for more than 30 years, with hundreds of permanent cures. For the past two years I have worked day and night to perfect a home cure, and now it is completed and thoroughly tested. This will be furnished with full instructions very reasonably.

Maine’s new law mandating the restraint with safety harnesses of children riding in automobiles took effect Sept 23, but for the next six months, police will give only warnings to motorists who don’t comply.

“You have an orientation period to get people used to the law before you start whacking them with penalties,” explained Androscoggin County District Attorney Janet T. Mills.

She said people also must be given time to make the investment in safety seats, which sometimes can be expensive. Maine is the seventh state in the nation to pass legislation that recognizes the state’s responsibility for promoting child passenger protection.
