AQUA NDVA VITA
NEWEST FRAUD
CANCER 'CURE'
Salt and Water, Mostly
Latter, Sold to Credulous
at $5 a Bottle.
ONE INGREDIENT
IS SECRET OF AGE
'Known Only to Almighty'
Is Vender's Blasphemous
Assertion to Reporter.
Permit us, ladies arid gentlemen, to
introduce to you this morning Ferdi?
nand .Muckley, A. N. V. Mu??kley. who
hails frM Keston, Fenn., where he waa
fined $150 and costs last April ?>v J'tdire
Stewart for practising medicine with?
out a license, has now ? New York
address at 111
Muckley can be found there almoat
daily exploiting hi? Aqua Nova Vita,
at $5 a bottle H run be rum. .; u tared
for a little more than citiht cents a
gallon, or less thnn two cents a bottle
for the "cure" of cancer, tubercu?
losis and almost every other internai
and external disease known 'o medical
science.
It waa at the request of J. Barker
Carter, one of Muckley's frienda, that
The Tribune be^an an investigation of
thie liquid, which is little more than
foul smelling water and common table
aalt. Barker and Muckley told the
representatives of The Tribune that it
would not be wise to put off publica?
tion of the story of Aqua Nova Vita
for a year?as was Huggctui bl
some other paper might ?jet tha
(Muckley's own little phrase). Murk
ley ?aid this Thursday. S?> he can
now see that his fear of another paper
getting the scoop was unfounded.
It was at th.- Oafloe atf Or. W. f-'choon
over, also the ofTi? e of Aqua Nova Vita,
that Muckley announced he had a
water specially blessed by the Al?
mighty.
"In Aqua Nova Vita," said Muckley,
"is something greater than radium."
"What is it, so we can tell the chem?
ist who will make the analysis?" The
Tribune representative asked Muckley.
Puts Blame on Providente.
"Ah," ex-laimed Muckley, assuming
the pose of a Shavian superman, "it is
something the Great Chemist Himself
put In there. Il is something that no
chemist can find. There are things
in Nature thut baille the greatest < hem
ists. The Almighty put something into
that water which w;il remain hidden
forever from chemists on this earth."
"It is something psjchic?" asked the
reporter.
"Ves," said Muckley.
"How would you describe it?"
? te is no word."
"Then 44 hat phrase?"
"There is no phrase."
And then Muckley indulged in more
talk about Providence, and Dr. Schoon
over pulled out a bottle of Aqua Nova
Vita and gave an ounce of it to the
writer ?nd his companion.
It smelled like sewage and tasted
worse. And then, to top it off, Muck?
ley told a story that was in keeping
with the A.;ua Nova Vita. Muckley
laughed at the story.
A little while before this nterview
Muckley, I'r. i-'choonover and The Trib?
une representatives spent fifteen min?
utes at the bedside of a poor woman
tn a tenement house, whose left breast
had been eaten away by cancer and
whose skin on her upper Isjfl
showed the burns of electric treatment
she had received at hospitals through?
out the city. The Aqua Nova Vita had
reduced her blood pressure, and con?
sequently the swelling of her left arm.
That Aqua V ; III some cases will
do, and so vtl] any other water as
highl.. charged with common table salt
as Aqua Nova Vita is, if taken long
enough.

As to the merit of the claims of
Nora Vita's sponsors, Dr. Bain
bridge said :
"They are absurd."
Also, for the same doctor, and other?
who may be using clinical bottles of

Df Benjamin F. Tilton. one of the
, most eminent suige?.' ty:
"Aqua Nova Vita or anything else
that will put off operation in a case
of cancer is nothing short of murder?
ous "
Dr. Schoonover, onetime vice-presi?
dent of the Aqua Nova Vita Comnt.nv,
sait! he treated fix cancer sufferers
and that five of them died of tho
disense.
"Rut it was because the doctors
mide them stop using Aqua Nova Vita,
wonld Bare cured them. The
sixth patient is cured, and married,
and ha]
Memory Was Bad.
Dr. Schoonover, however, when
pressed could not remember the name
of the one person who took Aqua Nova
Vita and ?ras cured. Nor could ho
pay where she is living now, except
thnt it was somewhere in New Jersey.
Nor could he remember where (he
lived when he treated her.
Hut, ?ays Ferdinand Muckley:
"Ir cured many people in Easton,
Tonn. It is good for and will cure
ever** disease mentioned on the label.",
Here are some of the diseases men
! on the label that Aqua Nova
Vita will cure according to Muckley):
Blood and ?.-land disease?; cancer,
internal and e*rternal? scrofula, ca?
tarrh, hay fever, hardening of the ar?
teries, tuberculosis i first and second

Bat enough of Aqua Nova Vita's
claims. Here is a statement that brands
it for what it is, culled from the label:
"lievull.- AhrayB Sure."
"The color, taste ami odor may vary,
but the results are always sure."
And adds Muckley:
"And the analyses always vary. No
two analyses of the Aqua Nova V i
agree. That, however, only goes to show
h..-A more amazing arc our positive i -
suits cures."
"Hut how about tho five pstien's
who died?" he W'as asked.
"That was because the doctors, who
ahrayi hate anything new and good,

CITY EMPLOYMENT
BUREAU SEEKS AID

Helping Jobless.
PLANS TO BREAK
MEADS LAID ASIDE
Bruere Says Those Seeking
Places No Longer Regarded as
Hoboes?Women to Help.
Funda from private sources are to
be solicited to makt? the Public Em?
ployment Burcsj of immediate benefit
to the unemployed. City Chamberlain
Brtiert? announced the necessity of
such action yesterday at Temple
I.'manu-El, where he addressed a com?
mittee of women organized to aaaiat
unemployed Jewish ?iris.
"I want you to help me get some
money that I can't get out of the city
trea?ury," said Mr. Bruere, "to ad?
vertise our municipal employment
agency."
A charter provision prohibits the
use of city funds for such purpose.
Although most hopeful as to the situa?
tion in New York, the City Chamber?
lain believes thut it is high time that
effort was concentrated ..n the indus?
trial problem. The widespread inter
aat in the question is one benefit of
the European war, he believes.
"I am not one," he said, "who be?
lieves that this is a year of extraor?
dinary distress. As compared to last
year, I think that the situation is
showing signs of improvement. That
point of view, at any rate, will do
much to spread confidence. In one re?
spect at least we are better off than
laal year. Twelve months ago the un?
employed were regarded as hoboes and
plena were laid to break their heads."
The Mayor's committee, of which
Ju?lpe Gnry is the head, is to go into
the problem thoroughly, Mr. Bruere
said. It is to study the tangle from
the standpoint of the employer as well
as from that of the employe.
In addition to a sub-committee on
relief, there will be a "committee on
facts." For this committee an expert
?ill tabulate industrial statistics, go
ii ir into th? industries themselve?. ta
? fncts. A few firms are at work
:. on the question in an intclli
? inner, having a sort of clear?
ing houaa where all recommendI
for di? charge are ??ifted to tind out
why the employe doesn't fit, and if
there is any place in the establish?
ment where he will fit.
At the meeting in Temple Fmanu-El
a n announced that Mrs. Paniel
Guggenheim had given $1,000 for the
?.vork. Mr?. Jacob H. Schiff $1,01 -
Mr?. Morria Laafa ?CJ?o. Mrs. Loeb has
offered, also, the use of a loft where
girls may be employe?! It is the plan
committee to employ girls at a
minimum wage of $3 a week, the
working day being short enough to i
allow ample timo in the morning to
search for other employment. The
output of the shop will probably be
applied to relief work, being sent to
such organizations as are distributing
agencies.
Among the members of the commit?
tee are Mrs. linear Straus, Mrs. Jacob
Schiff, Mrs. Arthur Lehman, Mrs. Dan?
iel Gnggenheim, Mrn. B. J. Grecnhut
Mm. Lea Bamberger, Miss Rose Sum
merfelii and Mrs. Alexander Kohut.
Walter L Sears, superintendent of
the Public Employment Bureau, Bald
yisttnlay that while his bureau was
awampad1 with those seeking plac
present, he thought the future looked
fairly bright.
"The condition of the labor market
from the viewpoint of this bureau,"
laid Mr. Seara, "is problematical to
the 9JSS9 applicants who registered for
employment. Although the bureau has
? - as?an in operation long enough to
make comparisons, there is a feeling
that i- daily becoming more prevalent,
that we are on the eve of a period of
commercial and industrial activity."
Although more than BOO women :
registered on Mr. Sears's books are
till without work, he could place from
? i 5,000 women in domestic ser
? frota tl to 10 a week. Mo??
of the m im?n who apply to him ara
atenographera or ?lo other office work.
In the twenty-three day? tha 'tireau !

! fron IM employers for
employes 'Ml men and 303 women.
Those applying for work number 9,
500; of these ?,380 are men and UN
