New York, Aug. 27.-The mystic
rious healing power of Prof VIM.
Wallace HadIey, of this city, which
enables him to cure hopeless invalids
when doctors, drugs and all othef
means have failed. has aroused vide
spread wonder and comment in all cir
cIes physicians and scientists being as
much in the dark for an explanation
as those outside the medical profess
sion.
Various attempts to discover this
mans secret have failed, since he has
refused to disclose the source of his
most marvellous control over disease
and his strange power to stay the
cluthch of death. Yet the proven facts
and evidence show that in hundreds of
instances when patients have been
pronounced hOpeleSSly incurable and
given up to death by doctors. Prof.
Hadley has restored them to health
so easily and quickly that it borders
closely upon the miraculous or divine.
These cures are theh more strange
and startling since it is known that
he has discarded the useless drugs u.s.
ually prescribed by physicians and ac-
composites these marvels by a new
and wonderful method of tretment
unlike any heretofore known to
science. Indeed one woman goes so

her heart beat again in her body when
she was prepared for the grave, and
he has performed dozens of other
seeming miracles of healing in the
face of death. He claims that there
is no disease he may not sure, and
there is every reason to believe that
this claim, startling as it is, is no
more than the literal truth. since the
records show that he has cured can

and other diseases supposed 10 be in

tainty that he cured stomach and kid
ney troubles, rheumatism, catarrh and
the more common ailments that hu
man flesh is heir to.
Powerful and peculiar as is Prof.
Hadleys ability, an almost equally re-
markable thing about this man is the
fact that he gives his treatment free
of charge to rich and poor alike, de-
voting himself to the relief of aff1ict-
ed humanity independent of fees or re-
ward. He is quoted as saying that he
looks upon this power he possesses as
a divine gift, and that he feels it is
his duty as a Christian to help all who
stand in need, without attempting to
eXtOrt money for his services.
During q recent interview with Prof.
Hadley, the eminent scientist firmly
but courteously declined to discuss the
secret of the power that he holds but
finally was induced to speak of some
of the amost miraculous cures he has
made Speaking of the case of JOS
eph r. Stewart, of Camden, N. J.. one
of his recent patients, Prof Hadley
said: MIR. Stewart had been told by
various physicians that he had can

put him under my treatment and cured
him. Today he is worth good many
dead men and in a recent letter to me
speaks of his cure as a miracle Then
there was the case of Mrs. M. Worth

twenty-five years she had been
hopeless invalid from complicated fe-
male troubles, many long months bed

hopelessly incurable and given up to
die by all her physicians. But she
