AiteT my btudy OF the L4Cl0 coz
cerning DIR. Whitman and his Advances
Medical Science racket, decided that
something more effective than mero
publicity was necessary to handle The
matter effectively. and consequently
have been keeping quiet and gathering
evidence that will effectually break uU
their business.
AS result OF evidence laid beforo
him by The Times Tuesday morning
Police Justice Stein issued warrant
charging "Dr. Whitman the Groltv
and his specialist, who was introduced
TO the representative sent over to s90-
him as DR.. Thomas. with practicing
medicine without a license.
The experience OF The Times repre-
sentative in the medical parlors Wa
amusing In the extreme, though e
had been actual suffering and pain TO-
be treated
He was ushered into the of1ice Of
DIR. Whitman the Great" without DE-
lay and greeted with glad hand
He complained OF pain in his stom-
ach. After few questions which
were Of a very simple nature, "Dr.
Whitman" pulled out his wonderful
diagraphoscope. This Is truly won
derful device. II consists OF a pair
'of electric coils. such as are used ~
electric door-bells, couple OF dry
cells and buzzer. With II Upon the
lace-curtained table, though apper
emily without connection, was glass
tube with a. circle on the end that
stood up about to the small OF the
patients back.
The Times representative wns plac-
ed In front OF this apparatus aud ''Dr.
Whitman" looked at him through 81
device that looked like an ordinary
photographers hood. though the eye
piece looked to be opaque. There was
no high tension current In evideLce,
no sign OF the ordinary x-ray appars
atus. The room was light so that an

quite impossible.
After looking at the patient through
this device for n moment DIR, Witt
man became very grave.
"You are suffering said he, from
a micro-organism OF the stomach
which is eating away the lining AZ
the organ. You are certainly In bad
shape, and II Is a good thing that
you came when you did or we could
not have done much for you.

This, OF course, Ii the standard do-
vice for soaring people into thinking
that they are on &Ae point or death
so that the fake doctor can claim the
credit for wonderful cure. The

on. "You could not use drugs In .

This was the end OF the frst visit
and the patient was ushered out with
the same courtesy that II always
shown to ready money by falir. On
his way out he noticed a pile Of cards
with the names of patients that had
been secured through advertising II
the newspapers that would accept the
money OF this concern. The oflices did
not have many of the things that one
expects in medical office. The dia-
graphoscope was the only piece Of ap-
paratus IN sight.
The further experiences OF The
Times patient with the Advanced
Medical Science outfit will be related
