L. P. Day, Prep., R. F. D. No. 1, La Grande, Oregon OSIEOPATflKALlY REGARDED Telling Of The fitiroan Structure As Viewed From The Stand point Of The Most Advanced School Of Haling-. With A Port wot d On .he History Of Tne Science After anatomy and physiology had as sumed the role of sciences and osteopathy had become possible, it remained for Andrew Taylor Still to throw off alle giance to the old beliefs, and to establish a real system of physiological therapeutics and a school to promulgate his teachings. The first class to graduate regula-ly from this school received their diplomas in 1894, while today, but 12 years after ward, there are several thoroly equipped colleges and some four thousand practi tioners in the United States, while some are carrying the gospel of health to other countries, The Bones And Ligaments The bony system, a model of architec tural perfection, combining thruout the greatest possible strength with the least weight, consists of, first, the skull or brain case, complete except for the fora mina cr epssinji thru whiwii nerves and vessels and the spinal cord; second, the spine, flexible and elastic, yet rigid enough to support the head and body, and more than tint, containing a large canal in which is the important extension of the brain, called the spinal cord. This spine is made up of a large number of irregular bones, between which are the openings transmitting nearly all the nerves to the body, as well as the blood, which passes inward to nourish the cord, These bones, like all other joints of the body are held together by strong, inelas tic bands, called ligaments (ligo, bind), but whi;h are loose enough to allow the varied motions of the body. These bones may become sufficiently twisted oi turn ed upon each other to cause pressure upon the nerves or vessels which pass be tween them, or as a whole, the spine may become bent in any direction, caus ing the different varieties of spinal curva ture, which must be cured, if cured at all, by some such mechanical method as osteopathy; third, the thorax. The spine, together with the ribs and breast bone, from the chest, a bony case, tho not as complete as the skull, for the pro tection of the vital organs, the heart and lungs. The ribs are attached just at the open' ings in the spine, and a slight turn in their direction may compress the nerves and vessels passing thru these openings The ribs and breast bone may be dropped or sagged, producing the hollow chest, which predisposes to consumption, and which osteopathy can always correct if taken before actual disease has begun. Other parts of the bony system are the bones which comprise the pelvis and the bones of the extremities, which act as supports and levers, all being subject to slight displacements, which are not rec ognized surgically, but which by irritation and pressure set up a great variety of diseases. So-called sprains of the ankle, wrist, etc., are more frequently slight Dislocations of the small bones, which osteopathy may relieve in from one to three treatments, instead of requiring weeks and months of rest as usually prescribed. Muscles And Their WorK The muscles are a group of organs which possess the remarkable property of contractility in response to nervous ! stimulf On them depend all the grosser and many of the finer movements of the body. Inhealth these muscles have a slight tension! or normal tonicity. This may be exaggerated to a chronic contrac tion by the increased excitability of a or a group of rerves. and they may therefore either exert prtssurethemselves upon vessels and nerves and other struct ures, rr by the r continuous traction upon tho bones to which they are attached, may draw these out of their norma! re lation, brirging the hard, bony substance in contact with the more sentitive struct ures. The musc'esl most prone to this chrcnic contraction are the small muscels which control the complex motions of the spine. These draw the ends of the ribs or other structures across the openings from which the nerves emerge from a cord. A leading feature in osteopathic treatment is the relaxation of these muscels. so affording another reason why t'ie osteopath pays so much attention to the spine. La Grippe is noted for caus ing such tearing and drawing pains in every muscle of the body and the chronic muscular contractions which it leaves behind account for the great number and variety or atter enects wmcn are so notable. The Circulatory System "The blood is the life," as quoted from our earliest literature, and we need hardly tosupjest the importance of prop er circulation, one of the principal aims of osteopathic work, yet the fact that the i blood circuVes at ail wis not known 1 until three centuries Uo. and seemingly very little use was made of the discovery BODY Ever Foley Hotel before the time of osteopathy. The cir culatory system consists of the heart, the tireless blood pump, the arteries which carry the blood to the system and to the lungs, the veins which return the used-up blood to the heart, and the small capillar ies that connect them. How many times do we find an area of the body starving for blood, and, as a consequence, diseased and this from some simple obstruction to emeeieemeirve4mmaH PUBLIC Joint Sale by Mrs. Eva Boddy and J.
