out there does"
On cross-examination Mrs. Nakuina
said that at times, she thought, he
was more under the influence of OPT
ates than at other times. She knew
nothing about his drug-taking, ex-
cept that she had seen him taking
hypodermic injections at the Kalihi
station, but what 1t was he injected

Atsthis point Magoon called DR..

good standing of the London College
OF Physicians. and Surgeons and had
practiced for twenty years. He said
that he had suffered from middle-ear
disease since childhood. though at
times IL had been inactive. IL had
been active since 1907. II was ex-
ceedingly painful and caused dizzi-
ness and buzzing in the head. He
had always been weak. nervous, and
light OF weight, never weighing more
than LOG pounds In his life. At pres
ent he weighed about 100 pounds.
II wanted to learn what I could
about leprosy," said Atcherley, in
answer to question as to how he be-
came associated with Wallach. IL
knew that the Board OF Health was
afraid of him, and I knew that there
was something there. Here was a
man who had hit upon some acct
dental remedy. there was no doubt
about II. There was humbug about
what he was saying, when he claimed
to cure other diseases. but there was
no humbug about the results. He
thought every physician was hum
bug, 30 he thought he could be a
humbug, too"
What about the female rocks?"

The Board was scared OF him. 1

Atcherley. 80 decided that 4

II know what It is composed Of"

certain about It until long after he
had gone. l knew the component

viii you tell how you treat lep-

I'm tell you the treatment, but
not the MATERIAL" answered Atcher-

describe his treatment. which he d.
vided into local treatment, Injection,
and internal through drinking.
DO you use anything that is un-
known to the medical world?" o.
"oh. yes. The drugs which use
are all known. with the exception OF
the remedy itself. Nobody else treats
leprosy in the way ! do. The chief
fault is that the question OF diet has
been overlooked"
At the request OF his attorney,
Atcherley introduced his leprosy the

why did you write this paper?"
They said my theory was FISH
theory" said Atcherley. II deny the
bacillus theory as primary cause"
He then went into very technical
explanation OF his own theory. in
which he appeared to group leprosy
with scurvy.
What has been the effect OF your
treatment?" asked Magoon.
II have got one case have cured;
another near to cured. and then !
have the cases left me by Wallach,

various details OF his treatment and
Its effects on the various phases and
symptoms OF the disease.
81 am not afraid of II. You can
not inoculate 1t. You inject the pus
from leper and you may get blood
poisoning or local ulcer. but never
lcprosy. 1t has been tried again and
again."
