full than the men in the cure
Of disease. We know more abou
the human body and its ailments.
A quack is pretender. Quack'
are unworthy or unqualified mel
who pretend to know and upon this
pretense alone ask for patronage
We are willing to grant that th'
people who take two weeks course
in magnetic healing or mai
course in anything are pure anC
simple quacks. We are not willing
to call our medical friends quacks
yet if it comes to a question o
which one should have the title we
respectfully call their attention tc
the fact that we require measure
OF preparation that is unknown in
the medical world, and more months
in attendance in school than ninety
nine percent OF the medical doctors
spent.
Twenty months of hard work is
required OF our students. The
tuition is $500, books about $35, and
board not over $40 per month. But
what a wonderful opportunity is
open 10 every graduate in Osteopa-
thy. A large income from the be
ginning, and enviable position in
the social world, unlimited oppor-
tunity to relieve suffering humani-
ty, certainty of success that cannot
be in any other profession. There
are so few graduates that each one
enjoys a limited monopoly and has
no competition and will have little
for the next twenty-five years.
Why should a man or woman who
is hardly making a living in the
present position or business, re-
main when it is possible to change
to Osteopathy and better the condi-
tions and increase the income and
the comforts of life. Certainly the
matter is worthy a careful investi-
CATION. We have seen the members
of almost every profession or calling
change into Osteopathy, and in
every case they have bettered the
financial conditions. If the lawyer
cannot see very bright future in
law, we can point him to many law
yers-even state senators-who
have entered Osteopathy. If the
dentist for any reason is dissatisfied,
we can show the brightest of den
lists who have become Osteopaths.
If Knight of the Grip desires a
home we can refer to large salaried
travelling men who have left the
road for Osteopathy. Ministers,
doctors, farmers, merchants, tailors,
and even editors and fine job prln-
tiers, in the class rooms.
Some of the brightest people have
been able to work their way through
the school, and while we recommend
those who are able, to devote their
entire time to the study, yet we
certainly recommend those who are
not able 10 do otherwise to make
their way by their own efforts.
Worthy men and women will re-
ceive every assistance on the part
of the Institution, to enable them to
obtain the course. II your means
are limited, write to the institution
stating the conditions and see what
can be done.
The Infrmary practiceis increas-
ing with the coming OF the patients
who have been waiting for moderate
weather. There win be large
number of new patients from all
sections of the country TO take adj
vantage of the skill and experience
of the teachers in the school who
give a part of their time to the
practice in the Inhrmary depart
ment. The charges for Treat mnt
are twenty-five dollars per month
and the best Of board can be OBJ
tanned for twelve or fifteen dollars
per month"; little more than the
students pay.
Diseases that are beyond the
skill of the medical men are cured
here. Cases that have bfflaled the
most skilllul of the meGIcal doctors,
yield readily to this treatment
Thousands of afflicted people re-
ceiye perma nent relief under the
hands of our skilIful ply sicians.
