0STE0PATHY-AS DEFINED
IN APPLETIoN's uNIvER-
SAL CYCLoPAEDrA

| "Osteopathy is a method O.
treating diseases of the human
BODY 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
muscles, or ligaments not in the
normal position.
"The system was formulated
by DIR. A. T. STILL. He reasoned
that a 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.
Ellis 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 variety of caus-
es, such as fall, blow, a 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. u

The Cure For

The announcement that the mos

1t has been shown conclusively by
scientists that the insects do not fiy
more than a quarter of q mile from
their breeding place, and that the
wind carries them practically not at
all. Evelyn Groesbeck Mitchell cites
an instance where mosquitoes troubled

come from marsh about mile away.

book is based on the investigations Of
the late William Dupree, surgeon.

BRYAN REPLIES TO
n. Y. WORLDS 8
QUESTIONS
eERATEs ORGAN OF SCARED RICH
WHICH is ADVANCING cANpl.
pAcY OF GOV. JOHNSON IN oP.
POSITION TO NEeRAskAN.

NEW YORK, April 22.-William Jen-
nlngs Bryan has made answer to the
three questions the World has carried
on many occasions on It's editorial
page since that newspaper has been
advocating the candidacy of Gov.
Johnson in opposition 10 Bryan.
The World asked Bryan:
What states did you lose In 1896
which you could carry I'm 1902
What electoral votes did you lose in
1900 which you could win in 1908?
What elements OF dissatisfaction
and discomfort did YOU fail TO arouse
then which you could successfully az
peal to now?
Bryan has answered as follows:
The first question Is not submitted
artee that he will carry state any
more than the World can guarantee
that he will not. The voters in the
party are better competent TO Judge
than either the World or myself what
states ! couls carry.
III | can Judge from the sentiment
expressed by Democrats who have
talked TO me there is an excellent
prospect of carrying all the states that
we carried In sc or ia 1900 and a
,Rumber besides. For instance, Ken
lucky. which we lost in SO, but car
red in 1900, will In all probability be
with us this year. for the loss OF the
state last fall was due 10 the staying

Our aeople expect 10 carry Ohio.
Indiana, North Dakota, California and
Oregon, with good chance OF Iowa,
Illinois, New York, New JerSsy and
West Virginia. There are number Of
other states in which our people be-
lieve that they have more than fight
ing chance, but, as said In the begin
n.ng, no person Is In a position to
guarantee an election, and OF all the
newspapers the World Is the last one
that ought to require. such guaran-
tee, after It's promises in behalf OF
Judge Parker when he was nominated
and It's brutal sale of its columns to
the Republican committee during the
campaign. The second question Is
answered in the first.
THE third question Is as contempt
iblc as the Worlds editorial policy
usually Is, for It is based upon the as
sumption that the Democratic appeal
is neither honest nor patriotic. where.
as Il Ia. essentially, TO the sense of juss
tice and this sense Of justice Is more
aroused than In the past and more
likely TO respond.
