How Osteopathy Cured
Eight Thousand, Only
Lost Eight Patients.
TELLS ITS OWN STORY.

Washington, D. c., Associated Press.
At meeting of Associated Pubic
Hospitals Managing Physicians today,
Dr. Ross, Superintendent Hospital, Buff
falo, New York, said:
"There was given in our hospital III
America three hundred percent less drugs
than ever before in their history, and
many new Hospitals now have no drugs
given in them"
Think Of that, you who are prejudieed
against Osteopathy.
In ten years a Doctor who gives drugs
will excite as much curiosity As a canni-
bal would turned loose in your streets.
People viii point to him and say:
''There goes a man who thought he
could cure a sick man by poisoning him. >
He gave him ealomel that ate his liver
into ulcers. OF course the man is dead
now.
Six thousand of them died in five
years here in FL Paso, while only eight
cut of eight thousand at the DR.. A. I.
Still Osteopathic Infirmary Pneumonia
IS so easy to cure by Osteopathy.
A doctor in Chicago has been pro
ducing in dogs almost any disease de-
sired, by exerting a pressure on the
spine, drawing it in different directions
and holding it there until it becomes
fixed; then the -deadened nerve, produces
the disease by stopping the circulation
to any one organ.
We cure all diseases by removing these
pressures from the nerves and blood YES
sells, and allowing Nature to build up
new cell life, and perfect health is the
result.
Below, I give out of 5000 cases some
of the principal dislocations 1 find IN
the spine and some of the common dis
eases which have been cured here. Out
Of this number We have lost but eight
cases. One of them was consumptive
so far gone we had no hope; enc with
Emphatic leukamia; and one had ty-
phoid fever and spinal meningitis which
had so far exhausted the little fellow
that when we did restore the circula-
tiCn he did not have enough strength
to rally. But we think it an excellent

Pendicitis, many of them so bad that
operation was demanded, but all were
cured by removing these conditions of
spine and hip without any operation.
Being a graduate in surgery myself and
having met with about one thousand
cases erhe and in other places, I have
lever seen a case requiring operation,
as the healing viii take place by remOE-
ing the trouble at spine and hip, so that
the appendix and bowels have a good
blood supply. Also by cutting out solid
foods for a time. The result is invar-
iably a cure.
El Paso herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1901-1931, 1913-10-19

deadening the nerves to intestines, and
choking the kidney circulation. This
throws too much stagnant blood-which
has become acid-to lungs, which are
pressed upon by these downward ribs,
eating cavities into them A general
treatment to straighten these hips for
ward and straighten spine was given
and case cured.
We have had large percent of these
cases and all were either cured or much
benefited, except one case, which we lost.
Almost all consumption is caused by
over-eating, eongesting the spine in small
of back, where nerves lead to bowels,
causing them to allow weight of body
to throw hips back and draw spine with
them. And if these patients drink too
foul water, typhoid fever is the first
indication of disease. High fed stock
will contract consumption by being over
fed, but you never heard of a Texas
range steer having it, or in poorly fed
families, except where the food was
poorly prepared, thereby exhausting the
nerves to digest it, or by eating food
that is often decayed. Any exhaustion
of system which causes ribs to fall down
in front and hips to fall backwards
causes consumption. 1t is not contagious,
as conductors in overcrowded trains as
sociate with these cases daily, and yet
are no more liable to contract this dis
ease than men engaged in other callings.
Bronchitis is caused by right hip be-
ing drawn backwards, affecting the cir
culation of blood to liver and kidneys,
causing too much stagnant acid food to
go to lungs, to be there oxydized, which
irritates the bronchial tubes and throat.
Left hip being displaced backwards, al
fects circulation of kidneys and spleen,
causing Bright's disease by disturbing
Emphatic circulation and if filthy water
Is used or poorly cooked food eaten, ty-
phOid fever results. Possibly hundred
cases of throat and all kinds of lung
trouble have been cured.

The case of DR.. Arnott is an interest
ing one from the standpoint of heredity.
His father Henry Arnott, was a cele-
brated surgeon on the staff of two of
the largest hospitals in London. He
finally retired from practice, and took
holy orders. He is now a canon OF
Rochester cathedral. His grandfather,
James Arnott, was surgeon in the
English army. His great grandfather
was the official English physician to
the great Napoleon and was with him
at st. Helena when be died. The en-
peror left him his writing table and
many other things of great interest
The doctors great uncle, Neil Arnott,
was physician extraordinary to Queen
Victoria. His present uncle, on his
mothers side, is Sir Richard Douglas
Powell, Baronet, physician in ordinary
to King George, ex-president of the
Royal College Of Physicians, and was
present at the deathbed of both Queen
Victoria and King Edward.
As if it were not enough to have this
large medical history in the family, fate
capped the climax, by bringing to DR..
Arnott as a wife, the daughter of an
other noted surgeon, Sir Alfred Cooper,
F. R. C. S. Mrs. Arnott's mother was
Lady Agness Duff, sister of the Duke
Of Fife, who later married the Princess
Royal Louisa Victoria, eldest daughter
of King Edward.
DR.. Arnott has been back in England
since his graduation, and reports shat
there is considerable interest in osteo-
pathy manifested in court circles. There
is no doubt whatever that the carrying
Of our practice into the highest social
set in England is a very important step
in the history of osteopathy.
DR.. Arnott is an extremely enthusiast
tic osteopath He has always been a
student and during the past three years
has Investigated osteopathy in a scien-
tific manner in the light of his pre-
vious medical training.
Dr. Arnott is already a member of
the American Osteopathic Association,
the New England Association, and of |
the Boston and Massachusetts societies. |
He is very popular among the practi-
tioners of Boston, and has been largely
entertained. Even when a student he /
was always welcome at the meetings |
of the local osteopathic societies. 1t is |
obvious that it is a distinct advantage |
to any school of practice to recruit in /
its ranks men of culture and intellect |
and Of high social standing, men who |
can maintain the dignity of the profess !
sion in the highest places.

ASTHMA.

Asthma is rheumatism of the
diaphragm. 1t draws the lower end
of the breast bone in and so holds the
ribs up so they cannot lower and throw
the air out of the lungs. We take the
pressure off of the nerves to diaphragm
and free the kidney nerves. and the re-
suit is invariably a cure if the patient
takes long enough. II the case Is Of
long standing, it takes about as long
as any cases we handle. There Is not
a disease known but what a greater per-
cent of them is cured by Osteopathy
than by any other method.
Talk with those who have tried it.

Side.

SIDE.
OsteOpathy Is to Be Carried Directly
Into the Ranks of the English No
biity.
Ralph Kendrick Smith, D. O., Boston.
An English physician who is a son
of a celebrated surgeon, the grandson of
An English army surgeon, and the great
grandson of the official physician of
the Emperor Napoleon at st. Helena,
has recently graduated from the Massa-
chusetts College of OsteOpathy, and will
soon open an office in London. The
wife of this osteopath is very closely
connected by marriage to the English
royal family, her uncle being the Duke
of Fife, who is married to the King
Georges older sister.
1t is a curious coincidence that two
UEcles of this couple were present at
the deathbed of the late king, one Of
them being his physician.
Dr. Neil Arnott studied medicine in
London some years ago, but never prae-
ticed. He secured his d. O. degree in
Boston in June this year. Dr.. Arnott
Is a man of wide experience, and broad
education. He has Travelled much and
may be well termed "a man of the

First, useless surgery, unsexing and

ailments that they have.
Second, vivisectiOn q the human body

Third, antitoxin, that curse of civil
cation, that has cost the country so
many valuable lives
Fourth, vaccination that does not pro-
tect and has killed so many of our
children and made cripples of others.
Fifth, the common use of instruments
in childbirth, and curetting the uterus,
that has caused sixty thousand of our
women in the United States to have
cancer of the uterus, and that in 1903,
caused 6.117 of our women to die as a
result OF this same meddlesome mid
wifery.
Sixth, the hypodermic injection Of
morphine for every ache and pain.
Seventh, the coal tar products and other
deadly poisOns that. have sent so many
of our people to an untimeIy grave.
Eighth, the appendicitis fraud, dis
grace to the medical profession. There
IS no form of quackery that has ever
been perpetrated outside of the profes-

has proved a gold mine to the regular
school of medicine.

liver is usually OverwOr5Ie1 by eating
more food than needed, and then when
it can supply no more, 1t is dashed into
activity by Physic until the trouble ends
in chronic constipation. These cases are
all cured by eating less and freeing
nerves to liver and bowels. We have
more of these cases than any other kind.
It takes considerable time when case is
chronic, but can ways be cured if time
enough is taken. If physics are con-
tinued or stimulants, it ends in a stroke

about the same Host of them ara
among leading lawyers and professional
business men, who use more blood in the
brain than IN their muscles. Too much
albumen is eaten to keep up brain blood,
as the muscles do not use it up, the KID
neys are overtaxed and they become
congested at the eleventh and twelfth
ribs. All these cases are cured or bene-
fitted. Sometimes ladies who are high
livers and do little work bring on this
disease by consuming more aIbuminous
foods than are used by muscles and thus
overtax the kidneys.
Tubercular limbs in children are usu-
ally caused this way. Kidneys become
overtaxed by carrying off too much
waste from too heavy eating. Kidneys
become eongested and the ureters draw
so that they pull hips out of place.
Muscles in small of back also eongest on
account Of nerve being overworked di-
costing too much food, saturated by
uric acid, not carried off by the kid
neys. We have more of these diseases
than any other kind of physicians.
Nearly all are cured or much benefited.
