TRYING THE RAIN CURE.
People in Texas Saw it is
a Remedy for MANY
ailments.

The rain cure is now being
tried by a number of persons in
Austin, Texas, whenever oppor-
tunity is offered for taking the
treatment, says an Austin dis
patch to the New York Sun.
Some of those who have taken it
say that it is a panacea for all
chronic diseases as we'll as many
of the lesser ills of the body.
There is nothing complicated
about the rain cure. All that is
required Of the patient is that
he shall stand in the open, with
his body bare of all clothing, and
let the falling rain pour on him.
The sensation is said to be
very agreeable. Those who have
tried the new treatment assert
that the rain falling upon the
bare body invigorates the whole
system and is especially strength
ening to the nerves.
1t is declared that the rain
cure is sure remedy for rheu-
matism and that decided i'm.
provement has been noted in
cases of persons afflicted with
tuberculosis. For nervous dis
orders the treatment is said to
be infallible. One treatment, it
is said, will cure a severe cold.
So far as can be learned, John
| burst, youhg business man of
Austin, was the first person to
give it a trial.
1t is recommended that weak
persons who take the treatment
, should not remain in the rain too
, long at a time and that vigorous
rubbing should follow the wet
I ting.
| 1t is the theory of those who
, have taken the treatment that
= it's efficacy lies in the fact that
4 raindrops contain peculiar me-
e dicinal properties and that, COM
= ing through the air as they do,
: they are charged with electricity,
/. which has a direct effect upon
e the body.
