Why osteopatny is Not Massage

Why osteopathy is Not Massage
 First: Because the lesser cannot include the greater. Osteopathy is both a science and an art. As a science it includes the broad sciences of Biology, Anatomy. Physiology and Pathology. Its scope and it's thera- peutics. while independent and orig inal, are coextensive with the field known as medical and surgical. Mass age is nothing of the sort.
 Second: Because. as an art. osteo- pathy is wider in it's application than either medicine or surgery singly, treating with conspicuous success a wide range of cases in both fields. It does not require less intelligence and scientific attainment to represent os- teopathy properly than either medi- cine or surgery. Massage is not per mitted to assume responsibility for the full care of disease except under a physicians direction. The osteo- path by contrast is himself physi- clan
 Third: Because, insofar as their work Is parallel-that is, where they attempt to accomplish similar things they work by entirely different principles and with a technique en- tirely dissimilar. Osteopathy frees up pressure on, blood vessels and nerves by adjusting displacements of bone. cartilage, igament. tendon, fas- cia or muscle wherever 1t is found, and by relaxing contractures of mus cle and fragments wherever existent, whether these be due to prior dis placement, congestion as from taking cold, over-work of the nerves, or yet other causes. Finally. in order to stimulate circulation after such ob- structions are removed, osteopathy does not rub or apply pressure over the veins, but manipulates the ner-' vous system through its various cen ters. either to stimulate or inhibit energy, SO that the vasomotor ap- paratus. may bring about the desir- ed action in physiological manner. that Is. by increasing heart action and opening up the channels of cir. culation. Massage deals with an ef-. >fect; osteopathy concerns itself pri- marily with causes. x
 Fourth: Osteopathy does not con sist. of rules of action; Its technique is, not mastered by mere imitation. and 1t Is g matter of common remark; that no two osteopaths treat the same case In exactly the same way. It's practitioners 4re taught to reason out each case from the conditions exist ing and to apply principles of cor rection. adtnstznsnt and nofznalizatton: in the meat cpmnsnn sense way. '

LIKED GOOD OLD FLllNTLocK
At First That Form Of Flrearm Was
Preferred to Samuel Colts
,e,,ya }r INVENTION M 4 N MI

It Is now just 100 years since the
birth Of Samuel Colt. who In 1927
shipped before the mast as a sailor
lad on the ship Corlo. bound from Bos
ton to Calcutta. While on that voyage
he whitfield out the wooden model of a
revolving pistol, says the Advance. In
1885 he went abroad again, this time
to secure patents in foreign countries
for his new pepper-box gun. Then he
returned to America and tried to in.
terest the government of the United
States in a weapon which could be
loaded on Sunday and shot all the
week. But he had no;immediate sue
cess in the %endeayor. The officers OF
the army frowned upon it. It would
not do. To be sure, it shot, and shot.
and shot, six times; but It used the
new percussion cap and not the good
old reliable flint. NV. X. i
1t would not do to indorse a gun
which depended on anything less reli,
able than the good old flint. The old.
time fintlock was good enough for
them. 1t was good enough for Wash
ington, was good enough for grim Old
Hickory, for Tippecanoe and Tyler too,
and good enough for them. Had 1t not
served our country in the past? And
what reason had we to expect that
the future could be saved otherwise:
So Colt and his new six-shooting gun
met with little favor in Washington.
But Mr.. Colt learned the secret of
nitrous oxide and went, around the
country as Doctor Colt" giving lee
lures and administering Laughing
gas" to his audiences, and he took in
a barrel OF money and built. q factory
and made his revolvers and sold them
and grew rich and gave Hartford .

Two men secured parks for Hart
ford, Horace Bushnell, who, having no
money, preached and pleaded an
stirred up public sentiment till the
people taxed themselves to buy a park,
and Samuel Colt. who sold SO many

money in some way-!Bushnelli park

the money, but often it has been no
laughing matter. For every now and
then somebody has gotten in front Of
q Colt revolver at the wrong time and
something has happened to him.
On July 10 Hartford celebrated the
one h%undredth anniversary of the birth
OF Samuel Colt. A medal was struck
and 500 Of these were distributed in,
honor Of the man who invented the
revolver. If we knew who invented
the fiintlock, he, too, might well de-
serve a medal. But what about the
men who would not believe In the re-
volver1 because 1t did not 9 q flint

rious place in American history,
