of a child paralyzed from birth, atrophied
muscles in youths arm brought into

Dr. Blumer discussed the three differ
ent points of view from which Nature
opathy treated the body, the mental, the
mechanical and the material He indi-
Gated that the principal cause of abnor-
NAL condition was through an Interrupt
ton of the proper supply of blood to the
parts affected. Natureopathy was eff
fective by being able to correct the con-
ditions that hindered this proper supply
of blood. 1t considers the body a self

however, he said was without the use of
drugs, which he declared had no place in
