| overburdened Mrs. Ingalls,.
81 am awfully interested, Edward, in
what you have told me, and if the cures
performed by DR.. Flower are permanent,
| it would seem that he Yields charmed
| scepter, the touch of which brings
health
| Don't have any worry about the per-
manency of his cures. l know patients
cured by DR.. Flower years ago who are as
healthy today as in youth. I will give
you an illustration up here at Norway.
Mrs. j. L. Horn, wife of the leather king
of the upper country, was cured by DR..
Flower seven or eight years ago of a most
malignant fibroid or cancerous tumor,
after two or three operations, and after
being abandoned by the physicians as
hopelessly incurable, but the finest speci-
men of health since you ever saw. A
Miss Smith, of the same town, was cured
| by DR.. Flower six or seven years ago of
tumor and dropsy, after being given up
| by the doctors as incurable. The growth
was so great that by some it was claimed
it would outweigh the patient. Every
body in Norway talks of DR.. Flower, and
| if a man in that town has dangerous
disease, he is sure to write or 60 to the
Doctor as the birds are to migrate south
ward at the approaching blast of win
ter
At this point the train backed into the
depot The two men shook hands, and
Mr.. Walters boarded the train for Bos-
ton. Our reporter, who had listened to
this conversation, took the same train
and a seat next the one occupied by the
New Jersey bound passenger. A travel
ler's acquaintance sprang up between
them, and with permission he accom-
panied Mr.. Walters to DR.. Flowers of
flee, $50 Columbus Ave-, Boston. To
his great disappointment he was told
that DR.. Flower was in the Southwest.
However, Mr.. Walters obtained DR..
Flowers address, and Immediately sent
him telegram giving a brief description
of his sisters case. He received
an answer from DR.. Flower the
next day in which the doctor
| said he would take the case.
Immediately Mr.. Walters writes, ''my
sister began to improve, and on Friday,
the LIST of July, was well enough to 60 to
Philadelphia to consult DR.. Flower, who,
as he was passing through that city,
stepped one day." He further states
that his sister is nearly well, and improv
ing very fast.
| Our reporter called on DIR. Flower the
other day, who had just returned from a
long professional trip through the South
and Mexico. Look at this mornings
mall. he said. and mail it was.
Hundreds of letters and letters from
every State, as well as from numerous
countries abroad. He was very busy, but
kindly gave few minutes of time.
II want to know, doctor, from your
own lips, if it is true that you can tell
the sick their disease without being
told?''
Certainly was the reply, II have
made thousands and thousands of exami
nations and l never asked a patient to
tell me his disease; and, so far as know,
/ never made mistake. By thus acutely
finding out my patients trouble, am
| not likely to make mistakes in my treat
ment.p
'sWould you mind telling me what your
| specialties are?"
| ssCancer, tumor, consumption, paraly-
sis, stomach and nerve troubles. We
treat chronic diseases altogether"
s'Do you consider these diseases cur
able?'
ssJust as durable as fever. think l
can safely say we lose but one in ninety,
and we have them in all stages, from the
incipient stage to the verge of the
grave
How do you manage your practice
when you are away from home?''
1.-THE medical part of my practice is
under the management and care of my
brother, DR.. A. H. Flower. He is very
skilled and able in this department and
has had the care of it for many years.
We have two departments in our prac-
tice the medicinal and mental, I, with
my special mental healers, take the en-
tire charge Of the mental department.
I attend to the examination of the pa
tients and exercise great care over every
thing. I believe less and less in medi-
cine the longer practice. Very many OF
our patients never have any medicine,
while others have medicinal treatment
as we'll as mental treatment.
ssThere is no limit to the power of
mind in the treatment of disease. When
all else fails, this power comes to the
rescue of the dying The medicinal de-
partment is of the highest Nothing in
our remedies like the ordinary drugs.
They are safe, quick in their action, and
lasting in their effects, and they reach in
a marvellous way the patient, whether he
be the fur-clad Laplander or a half-clad
Honduras native, as you will see from
