known.1 v.
Today, a tall, slender figure, slight
ly stooped as from the weight of many
hardens, be wends his way as simply
and as naturalb as the veriest fresh
man. A kindly word for all, a quick,
impulsive smile and handshake, and he

ing that it was good even to have seen
the Old Dootor "
J1ARD TO REALIZE III3 FAME1
Bnt one can hardlf realize, that In
so apparently simple a man, could the
seed have been born that has so grown
and flourished as Osteopathy." To
look at that tall tigure with toe beau
tifully poised head, the deep, widely
separated, spiritual ayes, and the firm
yet gentle chin bearded as in early
days the man with staff in hand
brings to mind a picture of Baptist
John, "the voice crying in tha wilder
ness '

for Dr. Still la ona ot the few great
I teachers or preachers who have lived
to see their tbeorlea put into practice,
or to themselves enjoy - the fruitage
from their planting.
HIS EARLY STRUGGLES '
Hia early efforts, his trials and auo
cesses, are no too well known to re
quire repeating. ; By overcoming, he
became atrong, and today his child,
Osteopathy, has grown to gigantic pro
portions and Is encircling tha globs,
lie la essentially a man of one idea.
The vein he struck thirty years ago
ha has continued to work, and In that
tlme.he has enriched the earth more
than all the mints of all , the govern
ments. ' ' " .' '.'
WAAT HE HAS DONE FOB WOMAN
Dr. Still has been criticised, about
his carelessness In dress.' What doea
the woman .who has been hours in
labor, with the dreadful thought of
operation hanging over ber, oare that
be la not clothed as other physicians
are? jr. . f : J
' Can he unlock the atruoture so that
the foetal , head may passt Can the
child be saved? These are things Im
portant, and grateful women all over
the length and breadth of the laud(
helped bybia followers, are singing his
praises
If Dr. Still had made no discovery
except in connection with obstetrics,
for all time would his name be blessed,
THE DOCTOR'S POPULARITY:
It Is necessary to knew Dr. Still to
appieolate his character. His presence
in thf class-rooms, when be cornea in
In his Inimitable way, ia usually greet
ed with rounds ot applanae," and the
nugitets he gives In his few minute
talks are the treasured of. all the
students. Hia knowledge of anatomy
is marvelous and often he can tell ex:
actly on what paga of what edition of
Gray certain things may be found.
And points inv physical examination
that escape all others pay tribute to the
Old Dootor's genius. .
He likes his little Joke, and aaya now
that he ia a Home-o-path, only prac
ticing around home a little. But be is
alwaya glad to give advice to doctors
who have gone forth Into the field, '
THE SUMMING UP
The Dootor's general health is good
and we trust that he may be spared
yet through many years. But when
the final summing up shall come, to
whom wlU ths earth yield most grate
tal homage?
To him who in nia ambition for pow
er crushed his fellowmen in his Iron
grasp, or to the simple ooantry doctor
who has made life easier for countless
millions? ' V ' f J
