USE OF 8YMPTOMS.
Symptoms are but indications of
disease, and disease but further indl
cations of lowered vitality. Forcibly
lowering temperature has accom
pllshed nothing for the good of the
patient for odvious reasons. Nature
Is out of balance and I am con
vinced that many fatal results are
from meddlesome interference with
drugs which still further disturb
equilibrium and bring about untime
ly dissolution.
How the Osteopath Work.
The osteopath attempts to hold in
check any untoward symptom which
may predominate and bolster up the
fagged organ which is struggling,
and in time nature regains her hold
and health returns.
Much time may be spent In some
point of differential diagnosis and
loud cackling result when at last the
thing has a name, but even with this
result are they any nearer a cure?
The osteopath lo:es no time over a
name, for the cause of the condition
is usually at hla fingers' tips at once
and repair begins at the same time

September lath we eineu
the desert again ana iravi-uus
miles we campel. Here we found an
alkali lake which Is known to be
very poisonous. L'elng still In the
desert, we found a spring of good
water near thU lake, which seem
ed very strange to not have alkali in
It. The spring is very large; had
been tested 600 feet and didn't find
bottom, so we were told. The coun
try all around here was hilly, sage
brush and alkali.
September 16th we moved on 20
miles for noon, before finding water.
After nooning we traveled along a
very large lake which looked very
ilce, and had very nice Bcee.
along Its banks, but the country sur
rounding It was a desert. This lake
was 20 miles long. We drove 40 nmes
hat day, which was a very hard
irive but we had to, to get gooa
water. We drove until 9 o'clock at
light berore reaching It and were
all nearly frozen, tired out, sleepy,
Mid too worn out to get supper, so
we all crawled into bed, and by
norning we were all as hungry as a
bunch of wolves. hen ureaniasi
was called all were ready to eat ex-
ept (Mr. Davis, who was very Inter
ested in) fishing. By the time we were
ill through eating, he came up with
me little old cat fish, about 0 inches
ong, and all mouth; it was so ugly
ne of the girls grabbed It out of
bis hands and threw it back, so he
lidn't have one. He might as well
lot have had any as that little old
wmely thing. We soon started on
ind arrived in Lake View about four
j'clock and camped. Here we had
ill kinds of company, Indians, Irish
men, Dagoes, Japs and negroes. They
ill seemed to have something to
xake them quite Jolly as they rallied
ill night. Lake View is situated
it the head of Goose Lake. This
valley is very pretty, and abundance
t hay is ralsel there. Goose Lake
!s 35 miles long and 15 miles wide.
15 miles of it is In Oregon and the
remainder extends into California.
The elevation here at the head of
the lake is 6,400 fest. Brant, geese,
and ducks abound on the lake.
The Shewalkan river is supported
by the lake. While this is a very
productive place it is devoid of
market, being 45 miles from the
uearest railroad.
September 18th we traveled down
the west shore of the lake to Pine
Creek, a little village situated on the
California line. Here we found our
selves 435 miles from our starting
point. Here the old horse which
Mr. Davis purchased from Jim Dalley
of Enterprise, became so lame and
was also a hard looker anyway, that
we decided to leave him, so we had
to give him away and buy another
one. Mr. Davis said he had better
give him away while he could, for
fear he would die on him, and he
couldn't even leave him on anyone's
property, 5
