TRUE HEALING; OR, SECRETS Ex-

A true teacher should always be honest
We do not use the term secrets exposed
in order to excite wonder, nor to hold the
reader; We simply intend to rebuke the
practice of some of the Mental Healers
and teachers, who, either ignorantly or art
fully mislead the inquirer. We intend fur,
Their, to give you, reader, the correct rules
for mental healing, or Mind-cureis There
are some who will complain Of US for i'm,
parting freely to humanity, that in which
they wish to speculate. They appear to
use it for avarics. They hold out the idea
that the rules Of mental cure are secrets,
40 sacred that they must not allow them
selves drawn into any conversation upon
the subject. The Healsrs who act thus,
are either ignorant or dishonest. They
can impart no correct idea of this system,
which plainly shows that their knowledge
of the subject is inadequate. Else they
would inveigle the poor soul into the pay,
ment of sums ranging from $50 to $500
for about twelve lessons, or t~wenty-four
hours time, in order to ill their own peck
ets with the scanty earnings Of the poor.
This ia an extortion and fraud. It is wrong
to hold out q false idea to those whose
hearts God has inclined to this simple,
beautiful truth. Designed, as 1t is, Tor en-
liphtenment, and for q blessing to the
race, heaven cannot prosper this Patent
Medicine-Spirit of covetousness.
A fair and moderate charge for time,
and for instructions in this system is per
fectly proper. We neither mislead the In
ouirer, nor demand nDjustly. We have
lust ended another course OF twelve les
sons. Our charges to those who were able
to nav. were $l2 for the course, but 10
more than one.half of the class, we made
no charge whatever. The rich blessings
which rest upon Us all, 90 far towards re-
ward.
We would now state the theory Of the
Mind-cure had we not promised, in our last
article to come to it's practical workings il
this, Many differ regarding the theory,
and we will reserve this part Of thu subject
for q future time.
There is no class of disease from which
the Mental Physician need shrink. He can
heal any case that can be cured by any
other practice, and can generally cure the
very patients whom the doctors have given
up.
There is no get rule requiring the Heal.

mechanical by adopting samenesa Some
have maintained that the Healer must SIT
with his side to the patient. Others clGim
that the Hesler's back should be toward
the patient, but the back being the repul'
Give side of the body, it would seem out
place to sit thus. Those who heal most
successfully. will act materially, and will
not violate any good rule of society.
Regarding the time that should be given
to a rea'ment, there is no invsriable rot9

quite as easily rs hny other This fact
proves that it is neither the patients faith
nor the prayer, that causes the cure. 1t
the Healer has advanced TO the ttue an.

ton, it is well, as he may not only perform
the cure, but might impart truth by which
the patient conld learn to benefit others.
1t is not right to assume that you can
explain this system because you may have
heard Q lesson, or held a conversation
about it. You must be truly taught Of the
Spirit, and be in the understanding or true
being, and be able TO discern to q fair ex-
tent the changing order of advancement,
and the fact that we are in q transitional
period, and that Gods present methods are
adapted to the new, and to the present ua-
foldment Of the race.
No doctor OF any systeu. should eVsr
mention to the patient, nor to the Sttend-
ants the name Of any disease that he be-
lieves the patient 10 have, nor that the
patient believes himself to have. The wise
and honest Physician who desires to cure
will not talk about the disease to any mem
Der OF the family. Any doctor with ten
grains of common sense, knows that fear
! not only increases disease. but 10 often the
cause Of it. Doctors have often caused
the almost instant death OF delicate women
BY telling them that they have cancer,
cholera, etc. II they had neither Of these

Doctors, please do not give drugs. nor
foster your patients belief in them. Go in
love and honesty, and if you are in Truth,
and the knowl edge of Life, you will silent
ly rebuke the disease, and will allsY the
tear of all. In order to expel the disease,
call it by nam mentally and bid it depart.
From the immediate improvement Of the
patient, you will discover that it is the fear
and belief that you are treatspg. Be faith.
full to this process and you will cure. This
is one of the secrets.
A little observation ought to teach these
simple lessons in the science o! mind.
Doctor, teacher, or healer, you surely
know that you can and do infuse your
own mental condition into the thoughts of
another. If one with whom you are o n.
versing becomes aroused to anger, or to
blows, you may rest assured that he is
simply acting your W mental state. You
threw your OWL anger upon, or rather into
him, and its natural rebound upon you, in
word or blow, is your wi action. IT,
through some Misunderstanding, he sp-
proaches you in anger which you do moi
resent, but, in true mental poise you re-
main quiet and without blame, then his
positive force is spent upon your negative
condition. You need not speak q word,
but will control him BY your mental bear
ing alone. This is a true tar. II, how
