MUNYON’S BLOOD CURE.
Munyon’s Homœopathic Home Remedy Company has an office in London, but the label on the bottle bears the words “Manufactured in U.S. of America.” On the outer package it was stated:
It eradicates all Impurities from the Blood, and cures Scrofulitic Eruptions, Rash on the Scalp, Scald Head, Itching and Burning, and any form of Unhealthy, Blotchy, Pimply, or Scaly Skin;
and similar claims were put forward on the label and in a circular enclosed with the bottle.
The bottle cost 1s. and contained about 200 pellets or pilules, of the average weight of ½ grain. They consisted of sugar; careful search was made for small quantities of medicament, but no other ingredient could be detected. Quantitative determination of the sugar showed just 100 per cent.
The estimated cost of the pilules is one-thirtieth of a penny.
