and robust health and Il Is to his physi-
cal qualities that his peculiar healing
power Is due. He does not attempt to
mystify his patients and give himself the
appearance of a wizard by wearing fow-
ing robes and long hair. He is simply a
plain business man and goes about his
treatment OF patients in a simple business
like way. He says that he has never
made a study of art Of magnetic healing
and knows little about the methods fol-
lowed by others who have had successes
In healing The method he uses and his
mode Of operation are peculiar 10 himself.
He don't care to know how others have
done. He has success with his own
me thods and Is satisfied to follow them.
Mr.. Petry has had an offer of $40 a
me nth and expenses to move 10 WASH
ington and devote his time and attention
20 treating patients. But he> says the
offer is no inducement. as his practice
here is worth that much and he is free
to use his own judgment In the treatment
of patients and to treat worthy and de-
serving people free Of charge IL he so de-
sires.

WICHITA'S HEALER
I Performs Cures
That are Almost
niraculOus.
A Living Battery
Is F. w. Petry
the Magnetic Healer.
Strong Testimonials from People
Who Have Been Cured
by His Marvellous
Power.

Wichita has within her borders a man
who. II he was located in some large
eastern city and would perform the cures
which he does here every day. would
soon become known an over the nation
as a wonderful healer. The metropolitan
papers contain numerous accounts OF
cures performed by persons living In
other parts who are gifted only in a
slight degree with the healing power
possessed by Mr.. Petry of this city.
There is no use trying to deny that
there is such a thing as magnetic healing.
We call II magnetic healing because
some name must be given to the phe-
nomena People come who have real all
ments. no medicine is given, no prayers
are said and no divine power invoked but
they go away cured. How Il is done is a
mystery too deep TO solve. The operator
himself does not pretend to know and
has no theory. He simply knows that he
has the power to heal He has demon
STATED It in n thousand cases and the
patient cares very little for the scientific
theory concerning the process by which
the cure was performed. Results are
what the patient wants.
1t has been known for ages, in fact 1t
II du lHSiluNls biidf nave tic
power to relieve pain. The human touch
is naturally magnetic and every person
has healing power in that way to some
degree. In Mr.. Petry the magnetic power
is developed to a phenomenal degree. He
is living battery and persons who have
held his hands while being treated have
testified that they could plainly feel the
tingling of the magnetic current running
up their arms.
Perhaps not one person In ten million
possesses the healing power that Mr.
Petry does. OF the thousands of cases
he has treated but few have failed to re-
ceive benefit, and some of the cures
which he has performed would be re-
garded as miraculous II the days OF
miracles had not passed. He has treated
everything from headache to cancer and
distorted bones and diseased vital organs.
His pamphlets OF testimonials from people
we'll known In this vicinity make the most
incredulous ask themselves IL there is not
something in this mans peculiar power.
Mr.. Petry is a man Of powerful physique
