The Denver Healer.

The Denver Healer.
The marvellous healing power of
Francis Schlatter, now known as 1.-The
Healer" is almost as remarkable as that
of Christ. To read of Schlatter's cures
seems beyond the pale of credulity.
Thousands of people are flocking to Dem
yer 10 be cured by this man with
miraculous power. Some of our own
citizens have been there. We mentioned
last week the visit of Mrs. A. Gluck to
the Denver healer, and who was cured
Of nervous headache. Chas. G. Lainy
returned from Denver, Tuesday morn
ing. He left Friday night. and on Mon
day fell into liue with the hundreds who
were seeking cure. 1t reads lie Il
romance to listen to the accounts of the
healer's power. but the reports are well
attested, and the cures are the facts in
the case.
Mr.. Laing held number 1903. He
formed with the line at O'clock, a. m,
and reached the healer about 8 p. m.
MIR. Schlatter takes the hand of the person
and presses it, aud utters blessing in
the name of the Divine Father.
MIR. Laing states that the crowd is
orderly and we'll behaved, with good
feeling, willie patiently waiting in the
line. There is no scoffing or ridicule
mentioned by any one, but all seem to be
impressed with the wonderful means I'M
accounted for. The poor and the rich
follow in the same line, and there is a
mingling of poverty ard diamonds and
silks. Mr.. Laing was cured of long
standing complaint of sciatic rheumatism.
Mr.. Schlatter's photograph is in posses
sion of Mr.. Laing and Mr.. Gluck.
A confirmation of the wonderful cures
can be found in the statements of eye
witnesses published in many of the news
papers. and the subject is not treated
with ridicule.
Schlatter can detect a person who goes
to him through curiosity, or who is
materialist or an unbeliever. He tells
them to pass on he can do them no good.
All that he asks is that you have faith.
1t is believed that it is the Divine Father,
through him, who does the healing. 1t
is quite probable that many are relieved
of their ailments who in few days or
weeks come back to their old troubles.
1t is not to be supposed that one can be
treated and relieved and then 20 on vio-
lating the laws Of health and nature with
out paying a penalty therefor. For in
stance, person who was practically
cured of long standing case of la grippe.
10 suppose that this person can hereafter
expose himself to the conditions referred
to. that produced the disease, and not
again have it would be folly.
F. p. Baker, former well-known
newspaper man, was in Denver, and
witnessed the treatment by Schlatter.
He says:
A. line 10 formed on either side of
Schlatter. The one to the right extend
ing for two blocks, two and three deep, is

of handkerchiefs have been blessed by |
him and are being used in many instanc-
es with great success. The healer had
over 1000 letters containing handker- |
chiefs to be blessed, unanswered, when
was there, but Mr.. Fox assured me that
all would be before he left Denver. |
Many will scoff at the idea of handker- |
chief being blessed and after being carri- |
ed thousands of miles then used for |
months and doing good. but of such facts |
