THE ROYAL GORGE INFiRMARY
OF osTEoPATHY.
Established 1888

This new science of drugless heal
ing, which bids fair to revolutionize
the healing art. breaking away as it
does from old established customs and
traditions. and going back to nature
for its foundation principles, is well
represented in Canon City in the per
sons of DIR. and Mrs. DR.. J. Homer
Dickson. who are graduates of the
first School of Osteopathy in the land.
under the direct supervision OF the
founder of the science, DR.. A T. Still.
at Kirkeville, Missouri.
A School of Medicine.
Medicine in its broadest sense in
cludes every method or means used
to alleviate human suffering Osteo-
pathy is a school of medicine. As
the medical doctor uses every aid to
nature except Osteopathy, so the Os-
teopathic physician uses every aid to
nature, including osteopathy and
every adjunct of the medical man. ex-
cept drugs The drug doctor does not
use Osteopathy because he does not
understand il and because he is pre-
JUDGED against it. The Osteopathic
physician refuses to use drugs, recog-
mixing them as hurtful and unneces-
sary. but he studies the practice Of
medicine from the very same text
books that are used in the best medi-
cal schools and under medical ex-
perts.
Osteopathy Is Heir
to all that is scientific in the history
of medicine. In all recognized schools
of Osteopathy the course of study in
cludes every subject-saye one-that
is taught in the leading medical col
leges in the land. The one subject
not taught in the Osteopathic schools
being ''materia medica," or drug ther-
apeutics, for which is substituted "Os-
teopathic therapeutics" or the thera-
peutics of nature. No physician OF
any school is better authority on the
subjects OF diet in health and disease,
hygiene, sanitary requirements, etc.
that are so essential to health and
pathic physician.
Diseases Treated.
All diseases amenable to treatment
are treated. 1t is estimated that about
so per cent of so-called incurable dis
eases, abandoned by other systems.
are cured by Osteopathy. In nervous
ness, indigestion, rheumatism. consti-
patton and those cases involving aches
and pains Osteopathy seldom fails to
effect complete cure. Drs. Dickson
have made cures of these which prove
and demonstrate that they are thor
ough masters of the science. Their
references are to the most intellectual
men and women of Canon City and
Branch Office.
Dr Dickson has onsped a branch of-
fee at Florence in the Houston block.
