not surprising. To accept DR.. Carson's
discovery as genuine in view of the fact
that his treatment is by Vital Science
alone-nature's own way. without the use
of drugs or surgical ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
a fatal blow at the very foundation of
the entire medical structure. and what
from a selfish view point seemed pro-
fessionaI chaos and financial ruin.
Despite the hostile attitude thus as
sumed by the medical fraternity, the sec
Ond most noticeable and immediate re-
suit of this discovery, was the beginning
of q pilgrimage to this city by append
citis victims from all parts of the country.
This likewise was not surprising. To hun
dreds of those anticipating the necessity
OF surgical operation, the announcement
OF this discovery came as a ray OF light
TO the mind. The possibility of avoiding
the surgeons knife. the horrors of the
operating table and its attending dangers,
naturally appeared to the impoverished
mind like freedom after commitment to
penal serVitude.
One man who recently came here from
a distant city for treatment for appendi-
citis at the Temple of Health, had bulg-
ing lump on his right side as large as
mans INST, his abdomen was wollen
ana hard ana the case was aggravated
to a critical degree by an inpaetiOu OF
the colon. So slight was his hope of re-
cOVery that he did not expect to leave
the city alive and instructed his friends
to make ARRANGEMENTS with a local under
taker to take him home. However. he was
doomed to a happy disappointment Three

home in pc feet physical condition Heart
TO heaEt talks with such patients as this
man, is what breaks through and dispells
the prejudice and unbeiief of the most
confirmed cynic regarding the efficacy Of
trea tment at the Temple of Health.
The alarm borders on panic wien the
Family Doctor tells the patient. -'You
have the appendicitis" The edict has
gone forth from the medical profession
that appendicitis is an awful disease, and
demands immediate surgical operation to
remove the appendix Vermlform or the
patient will surely die. The Doctor may
think he is hOnest-if he is, he is certainly
ignorant of every law governing the cure
of the disease he calls Appendicitis.
There never was a medical Doctor who
wrote medical books that pretended that
he knew the office of the Appendix Yer
inform, what is more he does not seem
to want his readers to investigate and
learn what the Appendix VermifOrm is
for Now what right has the Doctor
who thus confesseS his ignorance to ad-
wise people what to do about something of
which he himself knows nothing2
Here comes the secret of it all the
trusted Family Doctor has It in his power
to frighten the patient into a state of ter
rible suspense regarding the awful calam-
itY that must surely befau him unless
he Immediately submits to a DANGEROUS
and I will say absolutely unnecessary
surgical operation.
The pilgrimage to the Temple of Health
at Twelfth and Washington streets is
continually swelling in numbers-all in

Among the number are sufferers from ala

nant growths, disease of the bone and
skin. ahnctions OF the heart, lungs liver

their sick and enaciated little ones Some
have hip disease, others are paralyzed
and deformed with spinal diseases It

same They are speedily -respored to the
use of their faculties, and the bloom OF
health takes the place Of disease.
