OSTEOPATHY'S SUCCESS IN RHEUMATISM Osteopathy will clear up the blood by stimulating the kidneys and llv--r. aiso bv regulating the bowels; by. limiting the diet and keeping Ibe skin clean the Impurity is soon thrown out of the system and the rheumatism Is gone. This is a nat ural and mostpermanent result. Some people who have sore inflamed mus cles and joints from rheumatism say that they can't bear to be touched, hence osteopathy Is not the treat ment for them. This Is a mistake. The tender Joints and muscles do not have to bo manipulated. There is no hurting required ev9n in the most severe case3. The osteopath will merely go to the nerve centers hi the,eplne for the kidneys and liver to Increase the excretions. This ,wlll soon clear up the soreness by removing the deleterious materi al, that Is causing the trouble, from the system. Herald of Osteopathy. PENDLETON MAN EXPECTS TO LOCATE PERMANENTLY Charles L.
