Rochester, n. Y, Nov. 10.-Spe-
cial Correspondence -Discarding the
useless drugs and medicines dispensed
by doctors and yet healing hopeless
invalidS of diseases pronounced in
durable by physicians and specialists,
succeeding in restoring life and health
when doctor after doctor failed, Pro-
fessor Thomas F. Adkin. of this city.
has proven the value of q wonderful
discovery that threatens to upset mod
ern medical practice In the face OF
opposition, criticism, even ridicule, he
has persisted in his belief that hope
should not be lost until actual and UNI
! mistakable dissolution of the body oc-
ours. He claims, and offers evidence
beyond doubt, that he has made the
human heart beat again in the body
of woman given up to death. lie
cites names and instances, where, by
means OF his discovery. he has made
the blind to see and the lame walk;
where he has permanently cured pa
ralySiS, consumption, syphilis rheu-
matism, Bright'S disease, and other
diseases heretofore supposed to be in
durable. More than that, he states
that he can cure the sick in their own
homes hundreds of miles away with
out stirring from his office. In one
instance, that of a Mrs. L. A. Phil
lips of Trawick, Tex, the witnesses
say that he raised her from the dead.
Whether that is literally true or not,
there is little doubt but that the wo-
man would be in her grave today
were ii not for this mans strange
power over human life and his mar
velous control over disease and death.
Mrs. Phillips had been hopeless
invalid for many years, and for the
last five had been belfast, could lie
on one side only, and was covered
with bed sores. She was suffering from
a severe complication of diseases. in
GLIDING stomach, kidney, and female
troubles, and had been under treat
ment of twelve different hospitals and
various doctors, all of whom failed to
help her and pronounced ner case IN
durable. Her agOnieS were so great
that they threw her into convulsiVe
spasms, while her body was wasted TO
skin and bones. All the medicines
given her were without effect, and she
was rapidly nearing her grave, when
she heard of Prof. Adkin. Broken
in body, painWeary, and without
faith. but hoping against hope in this
| last desperate chance, she wrote to
him. He replied at once, saying that
he would take her case, assuring her
that he could and would save her life
and restore her to health. And not
withstanding what the doctors had
| said he did cure her completely so
that today she is up and about, as
we'll woman, joyous, thankful, and en-
thusiastic. Another case almost equal
| " remarkable was that of Mr.. r. a.
| Wallen, of Finey. Mo-, who for four
years was paralyzed and was stead
| lily growing more hopeless in spite of
| all the doctors who attended him. His
| cure was so quick and marvellous that,
in a letter he says 1T was like
| bringing the dead to life" Prof. Adj
| kin cured Mrs NJ w. Nolen, of Gov
| in of n
! without the knife or probe; he stopped
| the Great White Plague, consumption.
| in the case of Miss II. L. Kelley, of
| Seal Cove, Me. and hundreds of other
! suffering men and women have like
wise been rescued by this wonderful
man who seems to control some mys-
! terious force not known to ordinary
mortals.
/ When called upon for an interview
| Prof. Adkins said:
Yes | remember the cases you
mention, but do not quite understand
/ why they should cause any especial
establishment, since they are no more
| wonderful than scores of other cures
I have made since ! announced my
discovery to the world. / firmly be-
| lieVe that there is no disease / may
not cure, and whatever other men
may do or fail to do, l mean to keep
| on healing the sick and afflicted of
any disease they may have just as long
as / am able. l make no exceptions
rich or poor, east or west, wherever
they live, it is all the same to me.
All who are sick from any cause may
be cured in their own homes simply
by writing and telling me the name
of their trouble or their principal
| symptoms, age and sex, and / will
give them of my services absolutely
without charge. I feel that it is my
duty to God and man to give freely
TO help all who are afflicted and not
to use my discovery merely to make
money"
do you really mean that any one
| who is sick can write to you to be
cured, without paying you any
! money?
Exactly. I mean just that. know
