 Enthusiastic applause greeted Dr. L. Rlumer, Dean of the Natureopathic College, being introduced in Bridgeport some four or five weeks ago as the lecturer and demonstrator of that unique health system of which he is the founder. It was pointed out that while the theory of Natureopathy was logical and rational comprising, as it does, the best of all drugless and natural healing methods, it is more than mere theory, having been sue cessfully demonstrated upon some forty-fiVe thousand cases personally treated by the lecturer, the great ma jority of which having tried Natureo- pathy as a last resort.
 In making comparisons between Natureopathy and other systems, the lecturer emphasized the fact that he did not desire to make personal criti- cisrn of certain doctors, but he merely wished to point out their defects and shortcomings, and thereby pointed the way to a better system, one that prom ised to restore health to millions after the people have been awakened to the benehc1ent effects to be obtained from the natural and rational methods of the Natureopathic system, thus obviat- ing the destruction of tissues and the acquiring of demoralizing drug habits as a result of the constant dosing with poisonous medicines. Surgery was given credit for being the only method indicated in certain conditions, how ever, the baneful effects of removing vital parts of the body was pointed out and 1t was shown that S5%0 of the cases that resort to surgery could be restored to health by natural methods without the serious risk of life and health that 1t usually entails.
 The lecturer analysed the various drugs usually prescribed and how paralysis, gastro-intestinal disturb ances, nervous prostration and other serious ailments resulted from the Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes once stated. have their rightful place, which is the bottom of the sea; if they were placed there it would be better for humanity but worse for the fishes. The limitations of the single branch methods such as Chiropractic Osteo- pathy, Mechani-therapy, Food-science, etc., were also pointed out. All the drugleSS natural methods contained virtue and were therefore included in the Natureopathic practice, but they were absolutely to be tabooed when not indicated. which fact could only be determined by g. practitioner who had received a thorough and compre- hensive training in a liberal school Of drug1ess healing such as the Blumer College students receive.
 At the last afternoon lecture many had expressed their wish that another lecture and demenstration be given next week but DE. Bluner stated that three weeks lectures was all the time he could spare. It was unanimously decided to request another such Iec- ture as that given Ladies' day, since 8 great many did not learn of the lec- ture until too late. The local Natureo- paths said that some time in the near future such opportunity may be givena those who have not been able to see the wonderful work and to witness the wonderful transformations accom- NqfIIrannathiO stratfons.
 The demonstrations, which were given at the conclusion of the lecture. elicited the intense interest and en- thusiastic applause of the many who | witnessed the remarkable work done. ! The wonderful results accomplished in most all the cases, which demon strated all ailments can be benefited by this new Health Science. The fol- lowing are additional cases treated before the eyes of hundreds. A child just two years and six with infanti1e paralysis little over Q year ago was brought to the demon- strator for treatment. Its limbs were merely a limp mass with absolutely no power of motion. After the treat ment had been given he could move his little limbs, to the great astonish-
 ment of all present.
 A young man from State street who had suffered with pressure in the back
 
 after a brief Natureopathic treatment A gentleman who had suffered with paralytic trouble, for fifteen years and
 who walked with difficulty even with his crutcheS, with muscles atrophied was given a treatment by the demon
 strator. It was explained that mus
 c1es could not be grown in few mo-
 ments' treatment. Yet after a brief | treatment he could walk without his crutches even though one limb was
 considerably shorter than the other | A boy nine years of age, whose left | elbow had been arkylosed for the past two years as result of the in- oculation of antitoxin for typhoid 1 fever, appeared for treatment The | poor little lad had suffered almost
 continuous pain during these years,
 and it was explained that while an anky1osed limb could not be cured, ! though surgery made claims to suc- cessful refracture, which, however, has invariably been proven unsatisfactory i subsequently,. After several moments treatment feeling of ease and com | fort was restored and the lad was pro- | fuse in his gratitude for the improve
 ment received.
 full of chaIky deposit near to anky- 1csed since six years ago ard whose limbs were all contorted and crippled
 up was given Natureopathic treat
 ment. She was then enabled to par t!alIy straighten her limbs and walk with an amount of ease and freedom
 from pain that she had never prev-s
 ious1y experienced.
 1 Many valuable health hints were
 given during the lectures such as the cure of corns, tapeworns, headache, itonsdIftts and those who availed them selves of the lectures the last two
 weeks received much information Of value. This will also afford an oppor- ttunity to those who desire Tree con l sultation with the demonstrator. | The offices of the Natureopathic Psysfcians at 991 Broad St. are filled daily with consu1tants from 10 a. ul- Ito 8 p.
