In all parts of the country men and
women doctors and surgeons, clergymen
and educators are wondering at the re-
markable cures made by Prof. Thomas
A. Adkin, discOverer Of the Adkin Vitoa-
pathic treatment.
! Professor Adkin heals not by drugs,
nor by Christian Science, nor by Osteo-
pathy, nor by Hypnotism, nor by Divine
| Healing, but by a subtle psychic force of
nature in combination with certain vital
magnetic remedies which contain the very
elements of life and health.
A reporter recently talked with Pro-
fessOr Adkin, and was asked to invite all
readers of this paper who are sick or who
are worried by the ills of those dear to
them to write to him for assistance. Some
people have declared" said Professor Ad-
kin, that my powers are of God; they
call me a Divine Healer-a man of mys-
teriOus powers. This is not so. 1 cure
because l understand nature-because L
use subtle force Of nature to build up
the system and restore health. But, at
the same time, L believe that the Creator
would not have given me the opportunity
to make the discoveries l have made, nor
the ability to develop them, if he had
not intended that / should use them for
the good Of humanity. l therefore feel
that it is my duty to give the benefit of
the science | practice to all who are suf7
fering. I want you to tell your readers
that they can write to me in the strictest
confidence if they are troubled with any
kind of diseaes, and l will thoroughly dag
nose their cases and prescribe a simple
home treatment which L positively guar
antee to effect a complete cure, absolutely
free of charge. l care not how serious
their cases, nor how hopeless they may
seem; l want them to write to me and let
me make them well. l feel that this is
my hfe's work.
So great is the sensation wrought in
the medical world by the wonderful cures
performed by Professor Adkin, that sew
eral professional gentlemen We're asked to
investigate the cures. Among the gentle
men were Doctor L. B. Hawley and DR..
l.. G. Doane, both famous physicians and
surgeons. After a thorough and pains
taking investigation, these eminent physi-
clans were so astOunded at the far-reach-
ing powers of Professor Adkin and the
wonderful efficacy of Vitaopathy that
they volunteered TO forsake all other ties

pot in Sterling, ILL.,, and in a few days,
with others, was forwarded to Dixon, H.,

via Nashville to Chattanooga; then across

up on a farm, and was used to knocking
around at all kinds of rough, hard work,
which think was one reason why | stood
the hard marches and exposure incident
to the campaign as well as l did, being
sick and in field hospital only seven days.
Well do l remember the skirmishes and
battles, from BuZzard's Roost to Jones'
bOro, in which our regiment was engaged,
namely, ROckyface Ridge, Resaca, Rome,
KeneSaw Mountain, Peach Tree Greek and

constantly for 100 days. From Jones'

on our minds that we cannot forget them
1t is no wonder that boys and men who
stood shoulder to shoulder through all
these trying times and survived them are
so attached to one another People that
were not in it cannot realize it, and We
cannot express 1t.

and with the greatest indignation spurned,

commanding officer. Bradley was urged
TO the proposition by Lieut.. Davis. who
thought we were ripe for a movement of
that kind to secure our liberty.
Liberty even during the short intervals
of removal from one stOckade to another
was an acceptable change from the dreary
monotony of confinement. One cannot
imagine the tiresome drag of time in a
place like Andersonville. Nothing to en-
ploy the body or mind. Crowded as we
WERE there was no opportunity for phys
ical exercise. In Andersonville there were
only non-commissioned officers and pri-
Yates, Indians from one or more of the
Indian regiments, negroes, bugler and
drummer boys as young as y years, and
sailors who had followed that service for
many years. Every nationality, too. was
represented. Our officers were confined at

much rclished. Occasionally our rations
were varied, not. however. in quantity,
but quality: cornbread. COW peas. sorghum
and small pinch of salt would be substi-
| tuted.
| In the coUrsc of one month after our
| sojouTn at Camp Sumter the quantity of
our rations was cut down so much that
we scarcely knew that we had anything
TO eat from day TO day. And this fact,
together with the very hot weather,
and the poor quality of what we did get,
caused increased sickness and death. Dur
ing the month of August 1864. there died
30S1 of our boys without any apparent
sickness other than that brought about by
systematic starvation and neglect, prac-
ticed and carried into effect by the order
of the infamous Gen. John II. Winder,
Commissary- General of Prisoners. This
evil genius visited the stockade shortly
before the reduction of rations, surveyed
the interior Of the camp, and without a
word departed.
1t is not my purpose to detail the hor
rors of this place. That has been so often
and so truly done that L could but repeat
the sad description. The sequel to them
is sufficient when we contemplate the fact
that 10000 or more of our martyr dead
