There ia more ship subsidy talk
than usual and the committee on
Merchant Marine and Fisheries has
been holding a number Of sessions
this week at one of which Edwin
Cramp, of the firm Of the same
name, testified, to the establishment
of the most peoplew no heard him,
that the cost of steel in America
was no greater than Of American
steel abroad. This certainly was at
varience with the facts as under
stood by the most OF Mr.. Cramps
audience. but he insisted that the
statement was correct and that the
whole trouble with American ship
building was the high wages that
had to be paid on this side.
By all odds the funniest thing in
connection with the subsidy hear
ing was the appearance OF one
witness whom most Of the papers
gravely identified as ''.Mr. Arthur
Sewall, large ship builder OF Bath,
Me-" Such is fame. Probably no
one will ever know just how much
it cost Mr.. Sewall to get defeated
for the vice presidency on the Bryan
ticket and that was only q few
years ago. Yet he is alluded to be-
fore a House Committee hearing as
simply "a large ship builder OF
Bath, Me-" He says that his yards
are idle from the slackness Of trade
and that not a mechanic has been

ming up of the whole argument be-
fore the committee was, :.'Give us

as Vital Science. Al nrst inns work

Other than the methods of drugs,

atoms being d this time connned to
physical injuries. broken bones, mus
GUAR and tissue decorations.
As time advanced and opportunity
was given to test the method OF healing
without medicines, results were OBJ
tanned that had never been dreamed OF
before in the treatment of disease.
and women, all ALIKE, shared IN the
benefits that the new system of heal
ing conferred.
Cures were effected so quickly that
it was assumed by the doctors that
they could not be permanent. but ex-
perience proved the fallacy Of their
opinion. This and better way gradu-
ally gained q strong foothold among
all classes Of people. They could rely
implicitly upon the treatment, that for
want of better name, was then called
Magnetic Healing.
The great Paul Castor, of Ottumwa,
Iowa, was at this time the leader in
this method of healing. All classes of
people were coming to his Institution,
or infirmary, as he called it, Rich and
pun dA4hE uC ACd4tQ lAAeUl All. Ii.
Carson, his young disciple and assist
ant healer, however was not satisfied
with the crude manner of treating dis
case by magnetic manipulation, but
dreamed of a better and more salts
factory way, and one that might be
taught as a science. Severing his con-
nection with Paul Castor, he came to
Kansas City and began his work of
healing without medicine.
It would be impossible to describe
the condition of the people he found
in Kansas City, unless the reader is
familiar with them by associat ton It
seems almost impossible that such an
enterprise could be made a success
here Men were imprisoned by the
medical doctors for healing disease
without medicine, and laws were en-
acted that prevented the practice of
any kind of treatment except that in
dorsed by the medical faculty. The
people themselves were ignorant of
any form of treatment other than
drugs, blisters, emetic and cathartic.
In the face of all this who would have
dared to prophesy that at the end of
tWenty-seven years an institution
would be built UP here that would Ar
tract not only the people Of Kansas
City and all the adjoining suburbs, but
bring thousands annually from distant
states to be cured Of their affections
This is only a part of this great and
growing enterprise. The Carson Col

Dr. C. H. Carson, the founder Of
the school, is well known and his repu-

from almost every state and many
from foreign countries. Many have

the affairs Of business, 1nsur1ng health,
success and happiness. This school Is
destined to become one of the greatest
educational institutions in the country.
It is the hope of the founder OF this
college to leave it an ample endowment
fund to carry the work on permanently
through the coming century The sun
light of progress will thus tighten the
pathway of thousands who might
otherwise have been left to grope in
the darkness of ignorance, bigotry and
superstition.
Well may DR.. Carsons friends offer
congratulations as they look upon his
great success as a healer and founder
in Kansas City. No such work was
ever before attempted and no enter
prise with so many distractions in the
way has ever attained such grand re-
suits, and the prospects for the future
are such that the friends of Vital Sci
ence can now realize that the Temple
of Health is indeed the center of in
fiuence and power to direct the science
of h ealing disease without drugs, medi-
cInes or surgical operations through
