respondence.l 1.-The mysterious healing
power of Professor William Wallace
Hadley of this city, which enables him
to cure hopeless invalids when doc
tors. drugs and all other means have
failed, has aroused widespread won
der and comment in all circles, ply
sicians and scientists being as much in
the dark for an explanation as those
outside the medical profession.
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
clutch 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, Professor
Hadley has restored them to health
SO easily and quickly that it borders
closely upon the miraculous or divine.
These cures are more strange and
startling since it is known that he has
discarded the useless drugs usually
prescribed by physicians and accom-
plishes these marvels by a new
wonderful method Of treatment unlike
any heretofore known to science. In
deed, one woman goes so far as to
state that Professor Hadley made her
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 cure, and there is
every reason to believe that this claim,
startling as 1t is, is no more than the
literal truth, since the records show
that he has cured cancer, consumption
paralysis, deafness, morphine and

supposed to be incurable, with the
same ease and certainty that he cured
stomach and kidney troubles, rheuma-
tiSm, catarrh and the more common
ailments that human flesh is heir to.
Powerful and peculiar as Is Professor
Hadley's 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 relief of afflicted hui
manity independent Of fees or reward
He is quoted as saying that he looks
upon this power he possesses as a d.
vine 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

cures he has made Speaking Of the
case Of Joseph r. Stewart of Camden,

fessor Hadley said: "Mr. Stewart had
