OUT
OF
TUNE
"Strange that a harp with a thoua
and strings should keep in tune so
long!' Dr. Watts must have known
by experience and observation that
ills Sort"! machine does not keep in
tone. Man, considered as a maohlne,
is mere Intricate and delicate than any
harp. He is exposed to extreme heat
and extreme oold he is adder the
weather. No violin has snob an ex
perienoe of dry and wet, noon and
midnight. It is not strange that he
gets more or less out of order. The
wires of trie best telephone system be
come crossed and tangled. I suppose,
from what I see, bones, arteries, veins.
and nerves may easily get in one
another's way. They must be placed
where tbey belong. This may be done
by the trained hands of a man who
knos where they belong. It is aim
ply this the instrument must be
tuned.
I observe on tbe street tbe people;
there is something the matter with
many of them. I see that one foot
drags, that one shoulder Is bigher than
tbe other, that the clothing along the
baokbone does not hang plumb. The
machine needs manipulation a setting
to rights. I do not suppose tbit any
drng will hive any Influence on bones
out of place. I suppose that the lnngs
snd heart will work better if they have
plenty of room.
Osteopathy is a new thing, bat so
wss tbe discovery of America. It is
