To heal the sick, but say, "Quack, quack,
OF him whose actions show he can,
VIII be retired behind the van.
And those who kill with drugs and knife,
With no regard for human life,
See that though now they're legali3ed,
They'll very soon be penali5ed.
And though the law was made for them,
Their chance in court is getting slim.
For courts are also getting wise
To their old Public Health" disguise:
And drugless doctors win the fight
Cause Justice says they're in the right.
So wealth and law and precedent
And crooked politics, are bent,
That Justice they may circumvent
BY fixing public sentiment
But public sentiment has seen
The crooked Allopathic scheme
To tie the people hand and foot
And force the drugle6s doctors out;
And keep folks sick on poison drugs,
And tell them 1t was caused by bugs"
Demanding equal rights for ALL
Let every doctor have fair play,
And let his works results portray
The good or evil Of his school
To kill the sick, or get them we'll
Let Mud Ducks practice in their rut
on people who will let them; but
The man who wants drugless kind,
Shall have the one to whom Inclined
So M. DIS all begin to howl,
And say they have no chance at all
Fair competition they can't stand
From doctors of another brand.
They've got to have full right Of way,
With legal power TO display;
Or they will die natural death.
For legal powers their life and breath.
And so, the Allopathic breed
VIII, under protest, go to seed;
While Chiropraetie, being right.
Shall cause disease to take its flight
And thus fulfill our highest dream,
When Truth and Justice stand supreme.

II / were asked to make a speech,
This moral lesson would teach:-
Though custom make q deep-wor rut
In which the "Recognized' may strut,
1t neither proves 1t right or wrong
To walk the trail, or go alone.
What custom may decree on oath,
May be the farthest from the truth.
And errors passed as orthodox,
While truth is scorned as heterodox.
So man must learn to use his brain
If he would pure truth obtain;
And those who have, have quickly seen
The fallacy of allopathic medicine.
