THE FALLS CITY TRIBUNE , FRIDAY , JUNE 5 , 1908.
Stomach Troubles.
The popular conception of
osteopath ) ' is still somewhat
vague in its idea of just what
osteopathy is and what diseases
it treats.
It is the daily experience of
nearly every osteopath to have
persons tell him that they know
osteopathy is good for this
thing or that thing but they did
not suppose that it was any
good for that other thing ; what
ever that may be.
Only the other day I was told
"I know osteopath ) ' is good for
the nerves but I did not suppose
you would attempt to treat any
organic disease.
What would you accomplish ,
, they ask in the case of stomach
trouble for instance ? Isn't that
beyond the reach of osteopathy ?
Not at all. But don't you think
it rather preposterous for you
osteopaths to make such broad
claims ? Of course we know you
can do a lot of good in rheutna-
t tism and things like that but
5 we do not see how you can pos
sibly reach the internal organs.
Just stop and think of the
trouble the entire medical pro
fession has gone to find some
relief for this class of cases ;
why in Philadelphia alone they
have established a separate
hospital which is devoted entirely -
tiroly to the study and treat
ment of stomach diseases.
Very true. But osteopathy
and medicine are two radically
different things and osteopathy
has many , many times given a
cure when medicine could not
give even relief.
Medicine is not a science and
especially in stomach trouble
is fallacious. True , drugs can
be and -are given which would
allay the pain , but at best it
would be only a temporary relief
and after the effect of the drug
liad passed away the pain would
return with redoubled fury.
Why ? Because the theory of
medicine is wrong , for no drug
V- administered to the human or
ganism can ever cure a mechan
ical defect.
Before a cure can be effected
it is necessary to remove the
lesion responsible for the exist
ing condition.
Then they ask "what is a le
sion ? You people are forever
talking about lesions ; what are
they , anyway ? "
" A "lesion" is any obstruction
to any force or fluid in the body ;
any mechanical derangement in
terfering with the normal physi
ological functions. Such ob
struction is always the cause of
disease. Scientific cure is the
remoyal of that obstruction and
such removal is primarily me
chanical.
For illustration let us take a
case in point ; just suppose we
had an over acidity of the glands
of the stomach. Which would
you consider the more scientific ?
The giving of a drug temporar
ily to allay the pain and neutral
ize , for the time being , that acid
condition ; or the adjustment of
the human mechanism to har-
monius relations so that the
glands do not manufacture any
more acid than is necessary to
the stomach for its needs ?
The ode simply balances the
existing condition for the time
being ; if relieves but does nol
cure for the cause still remains
and the glands continue throw
ing out the acid. Naturally the
drug doctor mustkeep on giving
drugs until finally wehave a
chronic condition which in al
probability ends fatally , for
when \ve , put anything into the
body otherwise than air , food
and water we are introducing
something unnatural into the
body and Nature makes frantic
efforts to rid herself of the sub
stance thus introduced ; these
violent convolutions tend stil
further to disorder an already
faulty mechanism to such an ex
tent that automatic repair may
be impossible. The other meth
od is different ; the practitione
carefully looks over the human
mechanism to see what cause
the over activity in these cer
tain glands and , having found
the cause , proceeds by mechani
cal means to adjust the faulty
mechanism so that its parts may
work harmoniously together ;
this accomplished the glands
cease their unnatural activity
and Nature effects a cure.
What lesion would the osteo
path be likely to find in a con
dition of this sort ?
In all probability a sublux-
ated rib somewhere on the right
Side of the body in the upper
dorsal region , or some slightly
turned vertebrae interfering
with the nerve current to the
part affected ; certainly some
pressure somewhere interfering
with the proper functioning of
the part would be found.
Contrast thenthese two meth
ods of healing and let your com
mon sense decide which is the
afer , surer and saner treatment ;
he medical treatment which
ees nothing beyond the symp-
ems displayed and dopes these
Affects until airoutraged Nature
ebels ; or the natural , mechani
cal method which seeks for a
ause and strives to remove the
rigin ol the trouble ?
Common sense will tell you
hat osteopathy is not only the
nost'scientific but that it is a
: omplete science and the full
ange of its possibilities are un-
cnown and/practically unlina-
ted.
It needs no other proof to
lemonstrate its superiority over
every other school of healing
han to point to the vast army
of So-called "incurables'1 who
lave been cured by osteopathy
and are singing its praises all
over the world.

egard to these treatments cullen

disease , so that nt times I could not get
ut ot bed , and when I did I could not
tand straight. I took Foloy's Kidney
Remedy. One dollar bottle and part ot
ho second cured me entirely. " Foley's
Kidney Remedy works wonders where

THE WATER WILL CURE
N
Ten successful seasons have demonstrated that the
water of these springs will cure or help rheumatism , drop
sy , eczema , kidney trouble , bladder trouble , stomach
trouble , and all diseases of the blood. If you wish refer
ences we can give you plenty" them.
I am now on my tenth season and my trade
has increased each year. All patients
have either went away helped or cured.

Tbe Good Roads Question.
To THE EDITOR :
The floods of the past few days
draws attention again to the fact
that the main roads leading to
? alls City are in great need of
being fixed so that the fanner and
merchant should not suffer every
time of high water. In talking
with such men as Charley banto ,
Jerome Wiltse and Conrad Fehr
on the north side , and Andy Burg-
ner , the Frey boys , T. J. Hart
on the south side and a number of
others from the country , they all
appear to be united in saying that
they are willing to do what they
can to get some roads over the
bottoms that would be above Hood
waters.
The men who live in smaller
towns find it extremely diffcult to
get to Falls City during high wa
ter. The merchants of Falls City
have been losing a large amount
of valuable trade , because of no
roads.
When the Missouri Pac. R. R.
was first built across the bottom
they did not provide for the Hood
waters , and were afterwards com
pelled to put out a trestle. What
would it be to Falls City if there
was a viatluct built over the rail
ways at the foot of Stone street ,
and a hiyh road over and across
the Nemaha. The freight that
is lost to the railway , the tner
chants trade lost , and matters
standing still. Some cooperation
tion between the town and the
country would give at least one
first class high road in each di
rection from town. While people
are idle by reason of this high
water , it is a good time to consider
plans to overcome this trouble.
Drainage work may help , but
when such great Hoods 'occur ,
proper roads should be constructed
to give free access to and from
town. A good road in each di
rection would be of enormous
value to both country and town.
The farmer wajits to market and
buy , and the town wants to buy
and sell , but what can be done at
long as we put up with such roads
as we now haye. A few good
roads -properly constructed am
maintained would solve the ques
tion , be an accommodation to all ,
save the trade to the town and
nany of the fanners are awake to
he situatiqn and are ready to
do their share in getting such
roads.
