0STE0PATHY


The science of osteopathy discovered
by DR.. A. r. Still of Krksville. Mo. DR..
Still reasoned that a natural flow of blood
is health; and disease is the effect of local or
general disturbance of the blood: that to
excite nerves causes muscles to contract and
compress venous flow of blood to the heart,
and the bones could be used as levers to
relieve pressure on nerves, veins and ar
teries.
A slight strain or a sudden jOlting may
easily cause a displacement of bone, muscle,
tendon or organ, and consequent pressure
on the nerves, thus breaking the nerve wave
between the brain and the part injured
and we then may have as a result any of
the numerous ailments caused from lack
of nerve supply to parts. Seldom is there
Il permanent cure until the machinery Is
rghted. Hence we treat headache (all
kinds), weak eyes, catarrh, hay fever, en-
larged tonsils, goiter, asthma, bronchitis
deafness, Irregularities of the heart, neu-
ralgia or rheumatism (of any part), spinal
curvature (all kinds), dislocation of joints
all kind of stomach, liver, kidney, bowel
and spleen troubles, bladder and urethral
troubles, uterine, female irregularities, as
painful, suppressed or excessive menstrual
ton, leucoThoea, milk leg. etc.

Referee MRyne Passes Judgment on
Grantz K G1Oe.

Referee MRyne Passes Judg ment OH
Grantz 4 GlOe.
W. s. Mayne, referee In bankruptcy for
this district, has handed down his decision
| In the matter of the bankruptcy of the firm
OF Grantz & Gloe OF Walnut. This Is the
case in which the question has arisen wheth-
er the federal court has exclusive jurisdiction
OF the assets of bankrupts or merely con-
current jurisdiction with the state courts.
Prior to the firm being declared bankrupt
on proceedings brought by several creditors
part OF the assets had been attached in the
district court and were in the hands of a
receiver appointed by that court. Under the
bankruptcy proceedings in the federal court,
w. E. Haverstock of this city was ap-
pointed trustee, but the receiver under the
district court refused to turn over to him
the property In his hands of the bankrupt
firm. Referee Mayne in his ruling holds that
the receiver must turn over to the trustee
the property in question. The order reads
in part follows:
1t Is found that the property taken under
the said writ Of attachment belongs to the
SAID bankrupt estate and that the suit in
which 1t was taken was Instituted within
four months Of the institution of the pro-
ceedings herein. 1t is therefore ordered and
the said German bank of Walnut aud j. f.
isohua recelNeb', are ulTeCte0 hereby 10 turn
over to the trustee herein CIV. r. Haver-
stock all the property taken and held by
them under the decree and order of the
said state court Also all moneys coming
into his hands from the sale of property so
taken and sold by order of court or agree
ment of parties therein. That said receiver
have taxed UP in said state court his ex-
penses and compensation as such receiver,
not including attorneys fees and file tran
script thereof in this court. where it will
be treated and allowed as a preferred claim.
1t is further ordered that the Manning
Mercantile company turn over to the trus-
tee herein the amount held by it sough.
be held by the trustee subject to the order
priority thereto present and prosecute their
claims thereto herein.
1t is further ordered that the trustee
herein enter his appearance in the state
court at Avoca and defend in the replevin
suit instituted by Deere Wells & Co,
wherein certain wagons shipped to and held
suit in the state court was instituted by
the German bank of Walnut.
1t is not expected that Referee Mayne' S
ruling will be accepted as final, as the ques-
tion is one of much importance and an ap-
peal will, 1t is said, be taken therefrom.
This is the first bankruptcy case in this
district in which this question OF the jurs-
diction of the federal over the state court
has arisen and it is consequently being
watched with much interest by attorneys and
others.
