her outer garments and some of her
jewelry and put them on a desk I was

it at Mitzel. 1 pulled the trigger; it was
likeR thunder stroke; the pistol was dis
charged; Mitzel gave a little shrek and
staggered. l dropped the pistol and ran
to her. She had tiny bullet wound in
her neck. I supported her and AS soon as
possible ran for help. The poor girl died
almost at once. Soon so many people
were coming in the rooms that I took the
jewelry she had put on the desk and
little money and hid them for safety's
sake. / vas so grieved, SO distressed,
that forgot all about them
Villa, the lodging proprietor, heard
Mrs. Jefferson's sshrieks and was an
swering them when Fred Pierson. a

policeman. At the station house Mrs.
Jefferson handed to- the matron her
friends jewelry. in (which was included
pair of diamond earrings of three

SAL CYCLOPAEDIA

"Osteopathy is a method of
treating diseases of the human
bOoy without the use of drugs, by
means Of manipulations applied
to various nerve centers, chiefly
those along the spine, with a view
to inducing free circulation of the
blood and lymph, and an equal
distribution of the nerve forces.
Especial attention is given to
the readjustment Of any bones,
by DR.. A. T. Still. He reasoned
muscles, or ligaments not in the
normal position.
"The system was formulated
that body so perfectly construc.
ted mechanically should be able
to protect itself against the in.
roads or disease without the arti.
fical aid of external substances,
except those employed as food.
"His next conclusion was that
as a natural flow of blood is
health, and disease is the effect of
local or general disturbance of
blood. With this as working
hypothesis, he made a series of
experiments, the results of which
convinced him that the various
organs Of the body were cOntroll-
ed by nerve centers located chief.
ly along the spine, and that these
could be operated upon and con.
trolled by pressure or stimulation
of the fingers. He holds also that
if the bones, muscles, arteries,
veins, lymphatics, glands, organs,
and tissues Of the body are in the
ir correct anatomical positions, dis
ease cannot exist. Displacement
may arise from a variety of caus-
es, such as a fall, blow. strain,
or atmospheric change. Pressure
upon the blood vessels or nerves
in the immediate vicinity of the
part so affected will follow, and a
consequent shutting off of the
nerve or blood supply to some or.
gan, which will then become dis
eased. With a readjustment Of
the displaced part will come per.
feet freedom Of motion of all the
fluids, forces, and substances per.
tanning to life, thus re.establish-
ing a condition known as health.
