What Is Osteopathy:

Osteopathy was founded by DR..
Andrew Taylor Still, practicing
physician of the old school. in 1874.
and was the result of years or study,
investigation and observation as to
the causes of disease. The unsatis-
factory and uncertain results of the
usual drug treatment led him to look
further for the causes of disease
that on finding such he could devise
methods for the removal, knowing
as he did that drugs could not reach
the causes of disease and hence
could play but a small part in effect
ing a cure of such.
Twenty years were spent in study
and research after he had originally
conceived the idea of osteopathy, in
working it out and perfecting its de-
tails, so that in 1892 DR.. Still gave
the science to the world. At that
time he was the only living osteo-
pathist. Soon a school was formed
where the science was taught, and
on account of the remarkable things
which the practitioners of the new
school could accomplish, after drugs
and all other methods had failed
hundreds came to learn the new
science, and in short space of is
years the number of osteopathists
has increased from one to 5000
No profession has ever had as rapid
growth as osteopathy. Now there
are eight osteopathic colleges in the
United States with a total of over
1,5O0 students, representing several
million dollars invested in buildings
and hospitals with laboratories and
equipment of every kind for scien.
tific research. The requirements
for admission to these schools is the
same as are those of the best medical
I colleges of the old school in the
country. and the course of study is
the same even to surgery, as is pur.
sued in the schools of the drug pro.
fession except that the study OF os
teopathic principles is substituted
for the study of drugs, and the tech
nique of osteopathic methods, In
place of drug treatment. Thirty-five
states and Canada have recognized
osteopathy successful Independent,

STANDLEY LAKE PROJECT
GOING no BE COMPLETED

Denver, June 13.-The great
Standley lake irrigation system will
be carried forward to completion
whoever may gain control of the
Reservoir Irrigation company finan-
cial affairs, according to F. w. Tay-
lor, one of the receivers of the COM
pany.
The present fight of the Denver
stockholders to retain control of the
company's affairs and the efforts of
the Chicago bond house of Trow-
bridge & Niver company and it's af-
filiated interests to secure control, is
not materially interesting. Receiver
Taylor, who claims that he will go
ahead. according to the courts in
structions, and complete the enter
prise.
Work has not ceased on the irri-
cation system. There are now about
$50 men employed by sup-contract-
ors engaged in completing laterals
and connecting bitches. that will en-
able all those who have contracted
for water to obtain it. While several
of the sub-contractors were COM
PEELED to cease work because of lack
of funds, the majority of the sub
contractors expressed desire to con-
tinue, feeling assured that the ulti-
mate outcome of the company's af-
fairs will be all right.
Some time this week the $780,
900 worth Of receiver certificates.
the issue authorized by Judge Allen
to carry forward the work. will be
placed on the market. Already
there have been several inquiries re-
garding them from eastern bond
| houses and local caDitalistS The
certificates will be issued in denomi-
nations not exceeding $1,000 and
maybe as low as 500. The receiver
is authorized by the court to see the
certificates at not less than 90 cents,
par value being 81. They will bear
6 per cent interest, payable semi
annually. Failure to pay interest for
six months will make the principle
due at the option of the holders. The
| certificates are to be a lien upon all
lands and property of the company,
holding priority by the courts order,
over all other liens on the property.
The engineers have estimated that
it will require approximately $780,
| 900 to complete the entire system,
but only about s250.000 will be re-
Quired this year to carry on the
work as planned
| The eastern bankers and bond
holders who contemplate acquiring
control of the company. according to
reports, are now engaged in an eX-
animation of the contracts. water
rights and other assets and condi-
tions of the company preparatory to
making a definite offer to the Den
YER stockholders.

MAYOR DESIRES YOU
TO WRITE ON SUBJECT

A new filter bed is much needed.
there Is no doubt, but it is not the
immedinate present that is so forbid
ding as it is the future and we can
soon see, with our present rate OF
growth, the necessity of stopping un-
necessary waste. or increasing at a
very heavy expense the pipe line ca
pacity as well as the filter capacity
of the city's water system
The mayor is positive meter sys-
TEN will have to be installed. even
in the face of arguments by his
friends that to install meter sys-
TEN is to discourage the keeping OF
nice lawns and parking.
Mayor Houston has asked the
Tribune to give the matter some pub
licty and begs us to say that we will
get through this summer all right,
though there will have to be some
denial at times
He SUCCESS that thoughtful citi-
zens who have this matter in mind
sit down and write their ideas in this
connection, addressing them to the
mayor, so that they may be classi-
fled and digested. with the idea that
wisdom may grow out of careful
consideration on the part of the
water users,

MAN is TRAVELLING
AS A PHOTOGRAPHER

The man who goes by the name of
George Klein is travelling photo
grapher and always picks out those
houses to stop where he is morally
certain that there will not be suffi-
cient money in the house to change
his 500 bill
On arising in the mornings he
offers to pay and hands out the bill
and when the farmer cannot make
change he promises to send back
the amount of the bill and that is the
last heard OF him.
The amounts are so small that nc
one has yet taken the trouble to call
the attention of the county officials
to the man and his methods but the
marshals in several Weld county
towns have been notified and are
now on the lookout for him.
The man will be easily identified
because of the fact that he always
travels in the picture wagon and
his arrest is expected today in one
of the towns in the northern part OF
the county.
