practiced by A. 7. Noe, M. d.,
Kirksville. Mo. This science is
an outgrowth of Osteopathy.
Osteopathy in itself has made
some wonderful cures, yet alone
has failed in many things
Osteopathy was first practiced
by Wharton p. Hood, of London,
in the year of 1870, about % years
ago. The cures he made were
wonderful. / have his work telling
its full, history and modus operan-
di.
A few years ago A. T Still OF
Kirksville, claimed that he came in
possession of this science through
a medium. Mrs Alfred, of Kinks
vile, was his medium. She would
90 into trance and talk like an
Indian. But now | am told by
some of his friends that he denies
all this. However he must have
gotten hold of something of Whar-
ton p. Hoods works on the sub
iect, since he has made some of
these cures. l lost no time in in
vestigating and found this work
from England and have been putting
it to the test. To reach nervous dis
eases | have added Neuropathy,
which makes the cure more uniform,
reaching and curing those, Os-
teopa thy alone can't reach; in all
more successful DR.. Still tries to
make the impression on some that
1 never studied Osteopathy. Every
medical school in the land teaches
it. Osteopathy means science
pertaining to bones, Osteo mean
ing bone. The greatest trouble
with the NJ. DIS is, they rely
more on medicine than to manipu-
lation. Osteopathy has its place;
electricity has its place; neuropathy
has it's place; everything has its
place. But it is he who knows
man in all his parts that can best
adjust all things that are needed
to make the abnormal man, nor
NAL. You take a man that has
one part of all the parts that con-
stitute man and sends it out to
the world that he can cure all dis
eases, is fraud. Man is too com
plicated to get fixed up in any Isuch
way. Like the carpenter who pre-
tends to build a house with a
hatchet. He would find it very
difficult to plane a board or mortice
sill or saw a board with his little
hatchet. When it came to drive a
nail he would be there, but that
would be all. Like the o steopath
could set Il bone but could not
wake up a sleeping nerve and put
it to work as the Neuro Osteopath-
iSt does.
Composition of man is all i'm
portant to know. Setting b ne
does not always alter the compost
ton. There is where medicines
comes in. There are diseases that
medicine can cure, and that is in
its composition. There are some
diseases electricity cures. Man is
made up of bones, muscles, liga-
ments, nerves, blood vessels, or
gans, glands, corpuscles. cells and
# the vegetable, animal and min,
al kingdom. and it is fact some
nes that are slipped derange the

when the composition of man be

he eats. or contract d like measles
or scarlet fever. In man there are
many parts and every part has its
function. To understand all these
parts in relation to each other is 6
life work for any man.
