THE NEW SIGHT DAWNING.
The Quacks Ahead, so Admit the
Leading Doctors OFTOpeka.


Academy of Medicine and Surgery at
which the leading physicians of Topeka
were gathered, a remarkab BILE paper on
''Physic Healing was read by DR..
Eastman, late superintendent OF the
Insane Asylum. This paper elected
much comment on the part of our lead
ing medical men, some of which is
startling in its nature. From these ad-
missions it is evident the regulars
are getting their eyes open to the fact
that their profession is so full of ig-
nOrance and prejudice that it can make
no real progress; that medical men in
the professional channels are but little
ahead of where they were so years ago
For years the regulars have been
trying to outlaw men and women who.
without a purchased sheepskin, have
been trying to restore the sick and al
fiicted to health by means of the Ply
sic art" magnetic healing, etc. They
have held It to be a crime for man.
outside the profession, to cure another
of some disease, and the meaneSt thing
they could say of such a man was to
call him "Quack'' and Vehemently
call upon the people to pass a law which
would consign him to a felOn's cell
These regulars" supplemented these
piteOuS appeals for the slaughter OF the
"<QuackS' with Sneers and ScOfHngS for
the poor victims of quackery who were
restored from many years of sickness
which baffied the skill of the best
physicians to perfect health
But at this meeting these "Quacks''
admittedly ahead.
In commenting upon this most re-
markable paper, which is itself full of
admissions in behalf of ''Quacks,' Dr.
]. c, McCIintock said:
1.-The question is discussed and re b.
discussed at society meetings and abs6-
lutely no progress is made. You admit
the same things today that were ad-
n1itted so years ago, no more or no less
You don't admit today that Aunt Lu-
cinda or any other of these sOcalled
healers can accomplish what they pre-
tend to accomplish, and you didn't ad-
init it so years ago. You are hopeless
ly dOundering because you know little
about this matter. The quacks get re-
suits in their treatments that you can't
get, but you will not Investigate it be
cause you are prejudiced against it.
Some day some scientific organization
will investigate this matter, and tell
you how these things are done you
Will never do it yourselves, because you
are handicapped by your knowledge.
Aunt Lucinda" it must be remenl-
bered, is an illiterate old cOlOred WOm-
an who cures people of diseases which
have baff1ed the skill of the regulars
for years. She effects her cures through
magnetic healing.
It must be presumed that Dr. Nc
ClintOck has investigated the cures OF
the "Quacks" ard it is to be regarded
that he did not impart the needful
knowledge to his brother associates.
DR.. Alkire said: I am one who be

disease.
Dr.. Magee said: I'm a majority of
cases you tell patient just what
symptoms to expect after the admins
tratiOn of medicine and you Will get
just such symptoms. 1 have seen pa
tients relieved of intense pain by Il hy-

Such admissions as those of DR.. Ma

and leave it a complete jargon-worse
