oSTEOPATHY AS A TRUTH.

Ill The New York Evening Journal.
Mr. Brisbane chose the subject Of
keeping ones heels on shoes in thor
ough repair in order to keep the hui
man frame in perfect equipoise. This
was especially desirable in women,
the writer urged, who are more liza
bic to physical disorder than men
from this cause. Mr. Brisbane is d
writer who never goes into any sub
Ject unless he thoroughly understands
II: 1t is not known that he has ever
given the science OF osteopathy any
study whatever, but he got down
quickly to the meat of the whole sub
lect OF osteopathy in the recent edi-
torlal to which allusion is made here.
II IS this very thing of the study Of
anatomy and the bearing had by the
FONTS vertebrae and nerve centers on
the functional action Of the various
organs OF the body that form in
themselves the foundation of osteo-
pathy. Mr. Brisbane, had he had no
knowledge even of the existence OF

The taking of a cold would seldom if

functional disorders are long CON

the heart, the kidneys, or the lungs,

become Overworked, wear out and
trouble is yours When a drug seeks
to find the affinitine organ it is Sup

more than relieve, because it does not
remove the cause. Medicine does not
name the cause for anything-that is,
it may state a cause for a symptom,
but it does not always find the
cause of the cause You become iii

cause? This latter is what the os-
teopath finds out, and he can do so
by no means of Juggling or mystic
humbuggery He goes down and Oh
and in and around; he looks to the
proper justification, the correct artic-
ulation of the human anatomy, ami
there he will find the cause for the
cause. He knows what makes the
symptom the medicO tells about, but
he doesn't treat the symptom. He
goes for the cause of the cause. Ii

brass, adjust the out-Of-balance axle,
and your car runs along smoothly as

in establishing its claim to re-

1t is said of Mr. John Wanamaker
that one Sunday he delivered before
the infant class Of Bethany Church,
Philadelphia, a brief but eloquent adj

said: ''And now is there any question
that any little boy or girl would like
to ask me-"

The children OF a school were being

put to them by the examiner was:

Now, the mayor is a well-known

ton evidently puzzled the class; but
after long silence one youth ven
tured to raise his hand.

dare to follow the cause that lay open
before her II she had had eyes TO see and
an understanding instead Of a passionate
heart" That course, in our authors
judgment, lay toward Italy and not
toward the Netherlands. Prof. Thomp-
son is convinced that II France had
reasserted her claims to Naples and
Milan, then in the possession Of Philip ILL.,,
the nation would have been united in a
common cause that would have appealed
to ancient pride and achievement us
we'll as to existing animosity against
Spain. England would have had no
reason to be jealous, for her hand would
have been free in Flanders. Moreover
in Italy France might have looked for
support from Tuscany and Ferrara.
Switzerland would have supported the
enterprise; Venice would have made no
opposition. and the Emperor, for all his
Spanish attachments, could not have
done 30. With the Turk on her side In
the Mediterranean France could have
zone into war with Spain and the Pope
without fear and with great promise OF
success.

stalment OF Prof. Thompson's work
ends in 1879. For his comments on the
outcome Of the long and interesting
struggle-interesting whether the struggle
be viewed from an economic. a political
or a religious point OF view. we must wait
for his second volume. We have here

to the economic aspect OF the Huguenot
movement because. we repeat. the sub

Of Marguerite OF Navarro and Of some
other contemporaries. Our author holds,
however. that the light OF modern inves-
tiga tion has proved to the satisfaction OF
every unprejudioed historian, whether
Protestant or Catholic, that the massacre
was not the outcome Of a deliberate plot.
-The combinatio OF causes that led to
the action, the motives OF the principals,
the responsibility for the massacre are
to-day known with as much certainty as
moral forces having relative and not abso-
lutte values can be- We are reminded
that even some unprecedented contempo-
raries, La None and Henry ~. himself,
did not believe the massacre TO have been
premeditated. A general slaughter of
Professionals was indeed an old idea, but
never had been regarded as practical
save by the Papacy. In our authors
opinion the guilt Of the massacre in all
it's monstrous proportions and conse-
uence rests upon Catharine de- Medici
first OF all. Fundamentally considered,
II was the crime Of a tigerishly hateful
and essentially oowardly woman's heart,
Catharine was the author and instigator
OF it. The Guises entered into the plot

and really had little interest in prosecut-
ing 1t beyond his death For the rest the
atrocity was perpetrated by men whose
natures were compounded Of religious
bigotry. political enmity, personal resent
ment. rufianism or love Of violence.
1t is easy TO see in retrospect that the
massacre Of st. Bartholomew could not
possibly have been OF the renotest politi-
cal benefit to any person. Our author
describes II az both a crime and a blunder.
