New
Treatment
For
Diabetes
Devised
By
Local
Doctors;
Is
Proving
Very
Successful
TORONTO,
July
6:
(CP)
The
Canadian
Medical
Association
Journal
announces
the
discovery
by
Dr.
R.
G.
Large,
Prince
Rupert
physician,
and
Dr.
H.
N.
Brogklesby,
scientist
of
the
Prince
Rupert
Fisheries
Experimental
Station,
of
a
new
medical
treatment
for
the
malady
of
diabetes.
It
is
stated
to
have
already
had
remarkable
results
in
experimental
application.
f
The
new
medicine
is
given
by
mouth
instead
of
hypodermically
and
eliminates
some
of
the
objectionable
features
of
insulin.
Its
foundation
is
the
root
of
the
devil's
club,
a
Pacific
Coast
weed
which
has
always
been
regarded
as
a
nuisance.
The
object
is
to
reduce
the
sugar
content
of
the
blood.
Dr.
Large
learned
the
secret
in
treating
Japanese
on
the
Skeena
River
whom
he
found
had
been
successful,
through
using
the
herb,
in
allaying
the
ravages
of
diabetes.
With
the
co-operation
of
Dr.
Brocklesby,
the
new
drug
was
developed.
