DRUGS NOT NEEDED
How to Keep Health without the Use
of Drugs or Knife
Dr. Harvey W. Wiley, who is .run
ning Woods Hutchinson a close race
for the spotlight of medical notoriety,
said recently to a gathering of moth
ers in Washington, D. C, "Most dis
eases of children are spread through
the medium of the school room. The
day, however, is soon coming when
every pupil will be FORCED to un
dergo a strict daily medical examina
tian and then we will see the end of
these epidemics of child diseases."
Again you see that FORCE is the
keynote of the medicine men. They
are not asking permission to do this
but intend to force their fads on the
children. But why wait for the daily
examination? With their serums as
a panacea for all ills and already in
control of things, why don't they
cure these diseases now with their
"preventive medicines?" If they
can't "stamp them out" now they
can not any other time. It is an
admission that "medical" inspection
of school children is a failure. The
truth is that these diseases of chil
dren are caused by vaccination and
wrong feeding. Parents do not feed
their children properly and when you
put filthy vaccine poisons into a child
already suffering from the affects of
tea, coffee, milk, ice cream, pop corn,
candy pie cakes, pastry, too much
meat and starchy foods, they readily
succumb to such ills as scarlet fever,
ch-,enpox, measles, mumps, diph
and other diseases. In fact,
epidemics of these diseases invariab
ly follow wholesale vaccination . and
serumizing and nothing will stop
them until the people stop this ab
surd and dangerous ' inspection , of
school children. If your school board
won't stop it put in a board that will:
Let "Anti-Vaccination" be your slo
gan. Salt
Chloride of Sodium is table salt.
It is composed of chlorine gas, in
tensely negative, and sodium, an in
tensely positive mineral element.
When united they blind the sense of
taste and its continued use so blunts
the sense of taste that 'nothing
pleases except salt or condiments of
equal intensity. It is a mineral so
hard that it cannot be digested or
utilized in the metabolism of the sys
tem and it decrystalizes and leaves
the system as it enters it.
Every cell in the system that ab
sorbs salt contracts and disgorges its
albumen and other constructive ele
ments. It hardens the tissues and ar
teries and shrivels the corpuscles of
the blood and causes arterio selero
sis or hardening of the arteries, a di
sease usually fatal under medical
treatment. It obstructs natural ab
sorption of food and disturbs osmo
sis, or filtering through the mem
brane. It interferes with secretion
and excretion, prevents the formation
of fibrin and dissolves the globules.
When used to pickle meat it caus
es scurvy, salt rheum, skin diseases,
Bright's disease and diabetes. It
creates unnatural thirst and stimu
lates a desire for drink. It will kill
birds and fowls; is a good disinfec
tant and has no good use in domes
tic economy. English stock breeders
have found it detrimental to the high
est development of prize stock and
have excluded it from all food.
Goitre in Women
Many women suffer from goitre or
swelled neck. It is an enlargement
YOUR
of the thyroid gland in the throat
and is directly traceable to uterine
and ovarian disturbances from which
few women are free. The eyeballs
protrude and rapid heart action is
present and the patient is very ner
vous and irritable. These are the
chief symptoms. The medical men of
course advise an operation which is
disastrous. It can be cured by any
good drugless doctor in a short time
without operations or drugs.
Sex Hygiene and Eugenics
The school boards of Denver and
San Francisco have dropped the
teaching of sex hygiene in the pub
lic schools. The experiment was not
successful. Likewise "Eugenics,"
one Of the latest hallucinations of the
medical fraternity is doomed to obliv
ion. A prominent couple recently
married and held up as "Eugenic"
mates, are now in the divorce courts
each accusing the other of lying
about their physical condition. Where
did the doctors even learn anything
about "Eugenics" and what do they
know about it? The fad originated
with the medical trust as a measure
to increase private medical practice
and was shoved through various
state legislatures by the political
doctors and grabbed by idiotic fad
dists as the salvation of the human
race. In company with school inspec
tion, vaccination, "preventive medi
cine" etc., it is only a part of the
bunko game being worked on the
people under the pretext of "protect
ing" their health whereas it is only
a graft, for you notice that only
duly qualified and licensed physicians
of the medical variety have anything
to do with these crazy stunts. The
people are already slowly awakening
to this fact and will consign such ob
sessions to the scrap pile.
How About This?
The Army and Navy Journal of
July 11 gives figures to show that
since American soldiers left Texas
City and arrived in Vera Cruz sick
ness, chiefly malaria, dysentery, ty
phoid, etc., has increased near)7 150
per cent and explains that the dis
eases are carried by flies. Yea, ver
ily. I knew it would come. The
Navy surgeons, all allopaths, have
been trying for a year nearly, to ex
plain why an epidemic of smallpox
swept the battleship Ohio. They
have not yet explained why an epi
demic of measles or scarlet fever re
cently swept the Cruiser Vicksburg.
Probably the explanation is waiting
to join the one expceted from the
French army doctors why, out of
720,000 soldiers of the active French
army, 250,000 men were down sick
at one time recently with measles.
The fact si that the present craze of
"preventive medicine" is responsible
for the whole thing. Soldiers and
sailors are forcibly compelled to un
dergo vaccination and serumizing and
outraged Nature rebels.
Instinct and horse sense would
tell an idiot that if the system is pil
ed full of these rotten, diseased, com
bined human and animal filths, Na
ture does all she can to overcome
them and expel- them in order to
save your life. Yet, these are the
gentlemen, the medical politicians,
who hold every office in sight that
has to do with the public health and
are now trying to make the use of
these poisons compulsory. The tax
payers of Oregon are robbed of $1000
a year by a law that compels them to
pay that amount annually for small
pox vaccine. Unless this absurd su
perstition of "preventive medicine"

is sooner or later checked by law and
the rotting ' of the human system is
stoppea the worst epiaemics oi ai
sease the world has ever known will
wipe the human civilized races off
the earth. The great increase oi
such diseases as cancer, tuberculosis,
meningitis, diphtheria and children's
diseases is directly due to the whole
sale vaccination for smallpox, during
the past fifty years. We are now
reaping the whirlwind and will con
tinue to reap until the fad dies a nat
ural death or is stopped by law. Thej
are now forcing the national guard of
the various states to be serumized fo.
typhoid and Camille Du Moulin oi
the Massachusetts Guard and Clar
ence Pantzer of the New York Guard
died after inoculation. It also caus
ed the death of a Mrs. Mercer and
three children. Dr. L. M. Warfield
in the Journal of the A. M. A., June
22, 1912, said: "In vaccination one is
really given the fever in a mild form."
The greatest minds of the medical
profession have declared against sc
rums but the rank and file rjeed the
money and are going to get it as long
as the people can be buncoed into dig
ging up.
The Chicago Medical Recorder for
May, 1914, states that every man, wo
man and child of the Mexican pris
oners at El Paso, numbering over
50000, were forcibly vaccinated and
serumized at the same time. Some
rebelled and were put in the "bull
pen" on a restricted diet, until they
yielded.
During the Ohio River floods boats
sent out by the government to save
lives displayed signs "No Vaccina
tion No Rations." This is what we
are coming to in Oregon unless you
wake up and elect men to office who
stand for equal rights and medical
freedom.
In Louisiana
A bill to authorize medical inspec
tion in the public schools was killed
in the legislature. A bill has been re
ported favorable, to require medical
examination of man and woman ap
plicants for marriage. Benighted Lou
isiana.. Such laws have moral stan
dards and make people live together
without the formality of marriage,
but the doctors must have the money.
In Minnesota
The Minneapolis Journal says: "J.
Girard, 4317 Muarve St., N. E., was
taken to the smallpox hospital today
as a patient. Girard asserts that he
has been vaccinated nine times at the
shop where he is employed, again at
his home and seven times previously."
I heard Dr. Calyin S. White state
publicly in St. Johns, when urging
people to be vaccinated, that "if you
are vaccinated twice you will never
have smallpox," and the taxpayers
are paying him $5,000 a year to ped
dle such rot over the state. This
ought to be proof enough that Gir
ard was given smallpox by vaccina
tions. Dr. Van Brakle
I recently wrote Dr. Van Brakle,
and I am right, that the question in
volved in his case is strictly a con
stitutional one, which fact it seems
impossible to beat into lawyers' heads
It is not a question of whether the
state board of health has the right
to remove him or not, or that he
should be "a graduate of a repu
table MEDICAL school." The state
board of health as it exists today is
an illegal body and has no standing
in law.

bers and a secretary who shall be

is a man who gives physic. The
board consists exclusively of medical
doctors, a monopoly, to the exclusion
of all other classes of doctors, mak
ing the rankest kind ot class legis
lation, which is illegal, besides being
a monopoly in violation ot law. ihe
constitution of the U. S. guarantees
'equal rights to all, special privileg
es to none," and Section 20 of Article
t of the Oregon Constitution FOR
BIDS ANY LAW BEING PASSED
vhich "gives to any citizen or class
if citizens privileges or immunity
lot enjoyed equally by all citizens or
:lass of citizens." The stat under
its alleged "police powers" quoted so
liberally by the medical politicians,
cannot infringe on the constitution or
supersede it. The Constitution no
more contemplates state allopathic
medicine or placing the lives of all
the people in charge of one school of
healing than it does to make Holy
Rollers a state religion or place them
in charge of and compel all people
to accept their belief in matters of
religion. The law that says a man
in order to be a health officer must
be a graduate of a "medical" college
is rank class legislation and forbidden
by the Constitution as it gives "spec
ial privilege" to one class of doc
tors, to the exclusion of all other
classes.
In Oregon practitioners of all
schools are on an equal footing. Be
ing "licensed" cuts no figure. Law
yers must remember we live under a
Constitutional government and not
under a medical dictatorship.

A. HENRI WRITES
GREAT LETTER-SERMON
Says the So-Called Successful Man
Is a Thief and a Rascal
Mr. G. A. Henri and Dr. W. T.
Milliken have for some time been dis
cussing the scientific value of the Bi
ble as seen from their different view
points. Mr. Henri holds that what
ever of practical value there is to be
found in the Bible has been delivered
from such small scientific knowledge
as was possessed by the Ancient Bib
lical writers. Dr. Milliken, on the
other hand contends that the inspir
ed truths of the Bible are the source
of practically all modern scientific
knowledge.
In the following communication Mr
Kenri presents his case in a very
clear and logical manner, and it will
be indeed interesting to see what
means Dr. Milliken will find to refute
his contention that the Bible is not
wholly a good book, but that, just a,s
a fertilizer causes weeds as well as
wheat to grow, so the Bbile may in
spire evil deeds as well as the good.
Editor Courier:
In regard to a communication from
Mr. W. T. Milliken published in the
Courier of July 16, will ' you kindly
permit me to call Mr. Milliken's spec
ial attention to a few statements in
his communications?
My dear friend Milliken "What do
you wish me to prove?" If I have
criticised the Bible or ; Christianity,
nends a
'ep&rtinnienit
MAIN -:- OPPOSITE COURT HOUSE
"What else can I do?"
Should I eat of the poisonous fruit
and then die, you wouldn not in
vestigate the cause of my death, any
more than you believe my words.
Furthermore, why should I worry,
if anyone thinks 1 am talking- thru
my hat, when, if a fool criticises a
philosopher, it does not make the
philosopher in the wrong neither
does it put me in the wrong, if any
one thinks I am talking through my
hat. It only reveals my adversary's
ignorance or prejudice. The same as
when two men were walking down
the road, and suddenly they saw a
snake. One of them said "Do not go
near him, his teeth are poisnoous, and
I think his bite is death. I know him
by his rattling tail." But the other
man said, "You fool! How can you
know him by his rattling tail, and
think his bite is poisonous?" And
he 'walked nearer, and the result was
death.
Who was the fool and the murder
er? Should the first one have dem
onstrated his words as true? Had
he with his death shown the effects
of the snake's bite, they both had
been murderers. The one in his kind
ness, and the other in his stuborn
ess. Or do you ask me for a sign? If
so, no other sigh shall be given to
you but the signs of the times. Those
who live and have eyes to see with
see, and ears to hear with they
hear, and a brain to think with they
think.
But that you may learn for your
self to understand, that science is
greater than the Bible, and that
scientific knowledge has power to dis
miss all graft, theft, murder and so
on, which you say the Bible standard
will run into hell. We shall suppose
as yo usay, that the standards of the
Bible were suddenly accepted in all
its implications by the children of
man, and the children of men knew
no more than the contents of the Bi
ble, from the beginning to the end
how it tells about murder, theft and
graft, and the sacrifice of human life,
and the sacrifice of blood.
Then suppose they had no scientific
knowledge whatsoever, not even had
any experiences or knowledge of how
to produce the necessities of life.
What would happen, if not just what
you said, would be that graft, theft,
murder and so on would be driven
like a thunderbolt upon the children
of man. Brother would raise his
hand against his brother and father
against his son, and blood would be
sacrificed to the one they thought
was the living god. They would eat
each other alive, because no one had
any scientific knowledge of how to
produce for himself the necessities of
life.
If we then, on the other hand, sup
pose, the children of men had no
knowledge of the Bible whatsoever,
but everyone had a scientific know
ledge of what scientific facts it takes
to keep up life; by knowing this
they would be able to produce the
necessities of life. If everyone had
a scientific knowledge of how to pro
duce after the methods of today, no
one would need to steal, graft or
murder.
You are right when you say that
I am not very successful. If there
are any rascals in the church or
anywhere else, I will not judge. But
who are the rascals if not those who
are successful? Is not he a thief
that is successful enough to own
more than he needs ,and a grafter If
nd
he is successful enough to live upon
the products of someone else? Both
being murderers, if the least one die
of need of what the thief has in his
possession, or someone die while pro
ducing what the grafter should have
produced ?
Now then, are not these which are
scientific facts facts you can see
and judge for yourself greater than
the commands of the Christ. You
say it is commanded "Love thy
neighbor as thy self." "Love thy
enemy," and so on.
You call me to witness if we have
mastered yet those commands? i
will ispeak for myself and no one else.
I hope I never will love my neigh
bor as myself, as I try not to love
myself. I can not even love my ene
my nor pray for those that persecute
me, because I have no enemy and no
one persecutes me. Then, if I have
no enemies, or no one persecutes me,
should I then make enemies and cause
others to persecute me, that I could
love and pray for them? Should I
do all this, knowing, that if I lose my
life, I shall find it in all my selfish
ness? . i
That you may understand my ex
planation of science how the physi
cal can act upon a fact, let me ask
you "How can electricity, by going
through an insolated copper wire,
wound around a bar of iron, act up
on this bar of iron and magnetize it?
Magnetism in itself is a force that
cannot be seen, although acting up
on another bar of iron it causes an
action, which shows it is there. So
with science. Human thought, acting
through the physical senses upon a
fact, causes science, which in itself is
a farce, but has to act upon another
fact to show it is there.
If you had not, as you say, spent
a life work in reforming others, to a
Christianity that brings theft, graft,
murder and so on (because, how can
it bring anything else, when it learns
not how to produce?) A Christianity
that condemns selfishness and com
mands "Love thy neighbor as thy
self," which would be no love. And
commands "Love thy enemy," and
"pray for those who persecute you,"
when you have no enemies, and no
one persecutes you. Do not spend a
life work trying to take out the trifle
in your brother's eye, but take out
the beam in your own eye. You
might be then able to see how the
scientists of today are summarizing
the laws of thought, the same as the
laws of electricity. Remember there
are scientists greater than those men
tioned in any paper. Those mention
ed in the papers are only getting
names among men.
Do not tear down the crown and
pride of all civilization: THE SCIEN
TIFIC KNOWLEDGE OF HOW TO
WORK AND PRODUCE. That you
may not graft, steal and murder,
which science tolls us are unnecessi
ties for life. As ashes are a good
fertilizer for the wheat as well as
weeds, so even is the Bible good for
the evils as well as for the good, but
as it takes scientific work to clean
the weeds from the wheat, so even
does it take scientific work to keep
the civilization of man clean from
weeds.
Sincerely,
G. A. Henri.

ANOTHER VIEWPOINT : t
Mr. Kelnhofer Answers- Mr. Cridge
by Another Illustration
Editor Courier:
I notice in your last issue an ar
ticle in which Alfred Cridge gives a
vivid description upon taxaton and
domes right down to brass tacks of.
how the $1500 exemption amendment
would work out in the case so elab
orately illustrated.
He distinctly deplores the nine dol
lars fine that is imposed upon the
farmers described, for clearing 10
acres of land and thinks it unjust and
discouraging to future improvements
on that account.
But let us look at the other side
of this case. Supposing this farmer
puts these 10 acres just cleared into
potatoes, and a very conservative es
timate should give him 500 sacks of
potatoes. The average price for the
last 10 years has been about 85 to
50c per hundred. But figuring at
only 80 cents per 100 lb would bring
him $400.00. Now Mr. Cridge, would
it be such an awful clamity to this
farmer if he had to pay nine dollars
more taxes for the improvement?
Would that discourage him to clear
10 more acres if he could?

Market Report ,
The local market is being supplied
bv farmers and local gardeners with
vegetables of various varieteis, and
a good demand is found. The mar
ket of last Friday on Fifht and Main
Street, where fresh vegetables , were
brought in by farmers, was well pat
ronized and as soon as the sales com
monced there was a steady demand
for the wares of the farmers. AH
morning women could be seen carry
ing vegetables to their homes, and it
was decided by several farmers to
bring a larger supply on; next mar
ket day.,
Fruits are finding as good a de
mand as vegetables and include
peaches, apples, plums and berries.
California watermelons and musk
mellons in large lots hav ebeen re
ceived in the local market and are of
excellent quality. There was never a
larger demand for the California
melons than this year.
The peach crop as well as the
plum crop of Clackamas County will
be large this year. The late apple
crop will be as good, but the Grav
enstein and Red Astrachan apples
will fall short.
The following is a report from
the Portland Union Stock Yards'
Company, regarding the livestock
situation:
Gentlemen:
Receipts thee week have been:
cattle, 555; calves 16; hogs 1680;
sheep, 4039.
Light receipts of cattle for the
week, with good demand, prices be
ing fully 25 cents higher on all grad
es. Top on steers, $7.25 to $7.30;
cows and heifers of best quality mov
ing at $6.00.
Swine rnu also light, outlet broad
and demand urgent, $8.95 was top
first half 'of the week, but price rap
idly climbing to the 9 cents level, as
two loads sold Friday at $8.90.
Medium receipts of sheep and
lambs, both in quality and quantity.
Very little east of the mountain stuff
offering, most of the receipts being
from Western Oregon points. Prime
wethers $4.50 to $4.75; prime ewes
$3.85 to $4.00; medimu ewes $3.25
to $3.75; spring lambs $5.50 to
$6.00.
