proudly, and ne animated that to cure
| a Mercersburg big head is an accom-
| plishment to be proud Of.
The great success that he met with at
| Mercersburg extended his fame TO Cham
| bersburg. to which place he came last
| Monday in response TO several calls.
| The first case ne tackled here was bad
| case of chronic rheumatism. Mrs John
| Lochbaum, who lives in a little cottage
| at the corner Of Phila delphia and Vine
| streets, has been a helpless victim OF
| rheumatism for three yeras, in fact,
| ever since IL was thought she was cured
| by Mrs. Woodwork, the trance medi-
um. When young Keyser tackled Mrs.
| Lochbaum's case she was suffering
| great pain and had been unable TO
sleep on her right side for three years.
| Keyser pressed her hands in his, then
| gently pressed her ribs and other affect
| ed parts and, she says, sensation like
an electric thrill passed through her
| body. her pain left her and she turned
on her left side and slumbered for over
| half an hour. When she awoke she
felt greatly rested, and although she
still has TO use crutches she says she
feels much better, and especially when
the sun Is out and the air Is dry and
warm. She attributes her marked I'M

PEOPLE HE HAD TOUCHED.
In short time Keyser was run down
| with applicants DESTROYS of being touch
ed, and he now makes engagements
| with his patients, whom he treats either
at their homes or in some place where
crowd cannot collect. Unlike other
! healers, he does not give public exhibit
tons. Among those he has impressed
with his power TO cure is Frank Rollins.
a brother of the well known baseball
catcher, Pat Rollins. Frank Rollins
| has been doubled up with rheumatism
| for three months. Last Monday Keyser
| touched him on the ribs and hips, and
Rollins, IL is claimed by those who wit
| messed the exhibition. limbered up ct
! once, Strengthened out his limbs and ex-
claimed: "Welll I'll be dummed, I feel
| bully. The next day Rollins was bal
ancing chairs and dancing jibs. He
says he feels first rate now, except when
| the weather is damp, then he thinks he
would enjoy Keyser's magic touch.
MADE OTHER CURES.
Mrs. Robert Coleman, colored, the
wife of the sexton of the Central Pres
| byterian church, has suffered with a
rheumatic knee since last August. She
| says she had no use of her leg without
cane; that she had unsuccessfully
| used iodine, blisters and various lotions
and that her physician had told her
that the muscle OF her leg was worn out
Healer Keyser just touched her knee
and pulled her leg, and she says she got
| up and walked. She says she can now
bear her whole weight on her rheumatic
| leg.
Benjamin Parrot, an aged colored
| neighbor of Mrs Coleman, says he SUI
| fered from a complication of troubles
| beginning with a sunstroke and ending
with grip, from which he claims he was
partially paralyzed in his arms and
right leg. Keyser touched him for
few minutes. and the old man says he
can now walk without a cane, and Is
anxiously waiting for Keyser TO touch
him up again TO get him in trim to run
foot races with his grandchildren.
There Is another colored woman here
who had asthma, c2tarrh, nervousness,
rheumatism and crooked leg. Keyser
treated her and the patient says she
feels bettr, but Kyser says it won't
trouble her so much now, as he has
fabricated her joints" with his occult
power.
Jacob Ault got mixed up with Cum
berland Valley railroad train about five
years ago, and has since dragged him
self through life on a pair of crutches.
He had rheumatism before he was
wrecked on the railroad, and his life
has since then been one OF continual
suffering. Keyser pulled his legs and
arm, rubbed his neck and head, and
AuIt said that he felt much better and
slept that night with more comfort than
he had enjoyed for years. He now
hniks that IL Keyser Will rub his spine
maybe he can shed his crutcheS. To all
appearances. however, he is as much Of
q wreck as he was when Keyser touch
ed him.
NEWCURE FOR a DISEASE.
A man named S. Haller had salt
rheum, which compelled him to use a
crutch. Keyser touched his leg on
Monday, and on "Wednesday Haller had
thrown away his crutch and was push
ing a baby coach around town. 1t is
claimed that Mrs. Frank Rollins was
getting diphtheria, at least Keyser
claims that she was. Keyser touched
her on the head, and he claims that he
chased the diphtheria clean out OF her
system.
THE CHILD FELT BETTER.
William Scheers brought his e-year- |
old daughter. Eva to Keyser. The child |
was afflicted with St. Anthony's dante, |
so her father said. KeySer grasped her |
wrists, held them for while, asked the |
child what she felt. She replied that
she felt a funny sensation as though |
her foot was asleep all over her body"
"Do you feel better?" asked Keyser. |
Yes, sir" replied the child. You feel
rested, don't your asked keyser.
Yes, SIR" she said. Then turning to
the aiwe-inspired father Keyser said in
q brisk, busineSs-like way; That's
about all can do for this little girl al
present think I've backed her trouble
a little, and in time l can entirely cure
her of st." AS the father left with ms
child, the healer cheerfully accepted an
invitation TO smoke a cigar. As he
puffed away at 81 he looked more Ike
baseball player than g. healer.
