readers who desire to keep pace with the
march of modern discoveries and events:
"A general demand for reformation is one
of the most distinctive characteristics of the
nineteenth century. The common people, as
well as the more enlightened and refined, cry
out with no uncertain voice to be emancipa-
ted fir IN the slavery of conservatism and SUI
perstition which has held the masses in gross
ignorance during large portion of the
worlds history, and in the time of the Dark
Ages came near obliterating the last glim-
mer of truth. Dogmatc assertions and
blind empiricism are losing caste among
all classes of all countries. People
are beginning to think for them
selves and to regard authority much less
than argument. Men and women are no
longer willing that few individuals should
dictate to them what must be their senti-
ments and opinions. They claim the right to
solve for themselves the great questions of
the day, and demand that the general good
OF humanity shall be respected. As the re-
suit of this general awakening we see, on
every hand, unmstakable evidences of refor-
matory action. People who, a few years
ago, endured suffering the most intense in
the name of duty, now realize the utter fool
lshness of such a course. Men who were
under the bondage of bigoted advisers allowed
their health to depart; suffered their
constitutions to become undermined
and finally died as martyrs to false system
of treatment. There are millions of people
filling untimey graves who might have lived
to green old age had their original troubles
been taken in time or properly treated There
are thousands of people to-day thoughtlessly
enduring the first symptoms of some serious
malady and without the slightest realization
of the danger that is before them. They
have occasional headaches; a lack of appetite
one day and a ravenous one the next, or
an unaC countable feeling of WEAKNESS,
sometimes accompanied by nausea, and
attribute all these troubles to the old
idea of slight cold or malaria. 1t is high
time that people awoke to a knowledge of the
seriousness of these matters and emancipated
themselves from the professional bigotry
which controls them. When this is done and
when all classes of physicians become liberia
enough to exclude all dogmas, save that it is
their duty to cure disease as quickly, and as
safely as possible; to maintain no other posi-
ton than that of truth honestly ascer aimed,
and to indorse and recommend any remedy
that has been found useful, no matter what
its origin, there will be no more quarreling
among the DOCTORS while there will be great
rejoicing throughout the world

granular tube casts, which confirmed the
