This new, flrst-class Institution for the Hygenic
Treatment of Inyalids-without Medicines-has now
been in successful operation for fifteen months,
with patients from seventeen States and Territories.
In the HYGIRNIO TREATMENT of the sick, we repu-
diate the entire system of drugPiying as not only
utterly fallacious but terribly destructive to health
happiness and life. Medicines, such as are daily ad
minlstered to sick persons II given TO those in Wig
orous heath, would inevitably make them I'll. Rea-
son, Nature, and true Science must and do condemn
such " Healing ~ Art "
we RELY solely upon natural MEANS which include
an appropriate combination of Wholesome Foou,
Pure Air, Various forms of Tepid, Hot and Cold
Baths 10 Pure, Soft Water, Swedish Movements for
the strengthening Of feeble muscles, the relief Of
cOngested organs, and equalization of the clrcula
tion Magnetism, Sun Baths. Abundant Sleep and
Rest Outdoor Exercise, Proper Clothing, Recrea-
