The Oste0paths.
(C,ommunicateG.)


The action Of the Committee on Gen
eral Laws Of the Senate i'll reporting
adversely the bill introduced at the in
s,a1.ce OF the medical fmternity, de-
signed to prevent the practice of oste-
opatllv In Virginia, was eminently proper
and meets with general approval out
side Of the doctors.
In connection With the opposition RI
the NJ. DIS, which the osteopaths are
combating, a few suggestions are IN
order: :,
Firsr-Why is it the medical pract'-
TONER is antagonstic to a mode OF treat
mcnt which, in many instances at least,
and in a very short time has brought
relief and aleviated suffering where
drugs have utterly failed after long
trial. as testified to by many prominent
and reputable citizens?
Seconds this antasonism really the
result of sincere desire, to save the
people from imposition. or is 1t prompted
by pride that will not permit the
medical profession to admit that there
can be any process not prncticed by it
that can possibly relieve human misery
Why is it that though the members OF
the medical profession may differ. as
wide as Il church door among them
selves. they are united in condemnlng
any treatment suggested by one not a
member of their seclusivc class?

afflicted an opportunity to try tho et-
ficacy of his treatment. Let Virginia do
as many other States have done. In
fcrty-three States and Territories osteo-
paths are now practicng without legal
interference. In the District OF Column
t,ia. under the eye Of our rational law
makers from every State in the Union,
this new science is being practiced. Let
us have peace" Let the allopath and
homeopath pursue their way or wayS
and the osteopati. his way, all striving
to relieve human suffering, and the
people will be satisfied. Let the contest
of twelve hundred allopathS and homso-
paths versus six osteopaths cease. If It
is continued it may strike the public
mind with the idea that it is persecution
The osteopath is willing and anxious to
stand an examination anu to pay taxes
to the State but he wants a fair board,
a board composed of ostecraths. just as
the allopath and homeopath have board
of alopaths and homeopaths. He does
not want a board that has already pro-
nounccd him an incompetent. quack.
"charIatan" His course embraces anato-
NV. physiology, symtomology. physolos1-
cal chemistry and kindred subjects. and
he must pursue his studies for four ses.
sicns. of five month each and pass an
examination before he can get diploma

DANGEROUS SURGERY
should he the last Resort.

Many people suffer from piles, because
alter trying various lotions, salves and
cj1t1nents without relief or cure, they
come to the conclusion that a surgical
oreration is the last resort and rather
t|.an submit to the shock and risk TO
i:fc of an operation. prefer TO suffer on,
very often, however. the afflicted one IS
over persuaded to resort to tho knife,
and even though the operation is appa1-
entity successful, and there is complete
recovery from the shock incident there
to, the results invaria bly, the same; the
piles sooner or later return because their
cause has not been removed This result
j; a logical one. inasmuch as the knife
removes the effects of the disease only,
willie the cause remains as before. There
is claimed to be a remedy which does
remove the cause, hence eradicating the
disease, and that is the Pyramid Pile
Cure; it is i'll the form of q suppository,
is applied directly to the parts affected,
and brings about complete cure, quietly
ana painlessly. III this connection the
tt stimony of Mr.. John Cullen Bryant,
the well known bookseller of Haverhlll,
Mass, is of unusual interest.
