sonal experience he had with Osteop-
athy: II cannot say enough OF Mr..
Picker and O~steopathy. From an ex-
Derience in my own family L CONSIDER
Osteopathy little short of marvellous.
One of my family had quite a serious
i~nternal. trouble and has been a suf-
ferer for years. l had spent hundreds
Of dollars in treatment under the best
advice, with no relief. l was induced
by friends to try Mr.. Picker and was
truly astonished and more than pleased
to find after a short course OF treat
ment that a perfect cure resulted.

The boy was IS years of age, and whlle
out skating fell and hurt his spine. a
curvature of the spine was the result;
This curvature was very marked ana
It did not require a physicians eye 70

vice and was told that the boy must go
to either New York or Boston, TO some
very celebrated specialists in spine dis
eases, He would have to be gone four
or five years and be put in a plaster
cast or in a sort of leather ana steer
harness. I had almost made arrange
fients to follow this advice when some
one told me of Mr.. Picker and Os-
teopathy. 1 had little faith in any sucn
treatment and was astonished to meet
such a quiet gentleman as Mr.. PICKER.
He did not urge me to leave my son,
but said he could cure the case. Ai.ef
considering the matter, l at last con-
scented, knowing that nothing much
further could hurt the boy. After a
weeks treatment my boy SAID the
pains were much less, and IN nine
months he was as well as you n 1

rs Mr.. John c. Oswald, when inter-
