I am proud to say that I have been able

cannot but believe. with Prof Weltmer,
that to allow disease to continue is crime.
Our reason for coming to this belief Is
that il has now been demonstrated that
there is a cure for all diseases. For Welt
merfsm has been given more severe tests
than has any curative power known to
man. and the fact that it has cured more
than loo. 600 men and women from every
disease known is positive proof that Welt
merism will cure when all else fails The
most remarkable feature about Weltmerism
is that part known as the Absent Treat
ment which annihilates space and cures
disease. no matter at what distance the pa
tient may live. We take great pleasure In

Prof s. A. Weltmer. the eminent scien-
fist Of Nevada Mo- who originated that
Method Of Magnetic Healing known as
Weltmerism. and which is endorsed by both
the press and the pulpit, has demonstrated
that disease in a'tffme. Ina recent inter-
view he stated. "A crime is a breach,
whether a breach Of moral principles of
law, or of nature, it is still crime. Now,
disease is a breach Of nature, brought on
by either an abuse OF nature or by not fol-
lowing natures edict. and whether This
breach be in commission or in omission,

Now. | wish TO demonstrate that at the
present time the existing Of disease is a
double headed crime, first by its appear
ance. second by its continuation. for there
is no disease no matter how hopeless IT
may seem or Of how long standing. that
cannot be cured: therefore. TO continue in
disease is crime. not only to oneself. but
to posterity yet to come. Now we have
demonstrated by scientific researches that
disease is a product produced by human
hands. and is unnatural, therefore, II can
again be remedied by human hands. Inc
reason that the method which have ortgi-
