ENTERPRISE, It is said of some doctors that they never treat an ordinary case; all of their patients suffer with some frightful malady or have a peculiarly virulent type of disease all this that their fame may be the greater if the jatlent recovers, or that there may be no blame If he does not. However this may be, it Is a fact that the rep utation of many a doctor has been snhanced by the fact that the pro racted and complicated illness of some patient has resulted in at least partial recovery, when, in truth, their own methods have been largely re sponsible for the unusually long 111 .iess, the complications, and the fact that recovery was not complete. On the other hand, in cases equal ly severe, the osteopath, who work ing hand in hand with nature, over comes muscular contractions, takes :he pressure off of nerves, equalizes the circulation, thus avoiding local congestions and other complications, and brings his patient to a speedy recovery, by the very fact that com plications are avoided, often fails to receive credit for handling a very serious case. There is a natural tendency to ap plaud the skillful surgeon who per forms a delicate and difficult opera tion in a desperate case and prevents the death or prolongs the life of the patient. And who is there who would withhold applause under such circumstances? In certain cases the work of the surgeon is highly neces sary and cannot be dispensed with. However, hU operations are usually widely known and owing to the na ture of the case his fame is heralded abroad, and many times the real worth of his services Is greatly ex' aggerated. In striking contrast to this the work of the osteopath often appears A patient comes to him suffering with some obscure malady that has baffled the efforts of his medical ad visor. The osteopath finds In some .structural derangement the cause of his symptoms. Some nerve Impinge nient or some obstructed vessel has produced a condition which, if unre lieved, will sooner or later drive the patlenb to the surgeon's table. Quiet ly. carefully, for possibly several months, treatment is given; the te la on a are corrected; the patient is restored to health. Nothing spectac ular about this. The patient's friends do not know, and usually the patl ent himself does not realize the value of the service that has been rendered Yet prevention is better than cure. When we say prevention we mean more than that a particular Illness may be avoided. Though osteopathy often does this, for a perfectly ad' Justed body, with all Its organs func tioning properly, is better able to resist disease. But when disease does find lodgment in the body the nature and effect of osteopathic treatment Is such that complications are far less likely to occur during its course and distressing sequelae are by no means so likely to follow Us termination. When a surgical operation is per formed and the patient does not die the public is informed that the opera tlon was' successful. What the public does not realize and appreciate art the facts that tissues have been dl vlded, neives and vessels severed, and possibly a limb or an organ has been removed. Rarely is the patient fully restored to health. As some one has Bald: "A bird with a brok en wing can never soar as high as one that wast never injured." How infinitely better is osteopathy which, in a fair proportion of cases, precludes the necessity for opera tlons. Thus the danger of the anes- Ihetic, the shock of the operation, the weary days of suffering follow lng, the loss of time, the Burgeon's fee, the hospital expense, are all avoided and the patient has a whole body. Surely, when people generally awaken and they are rapidly awak entng to the fact that the old adage 'an ounce of prevention is worth a po.ind of cure' expresses a 'great and practical truth when applied to the healing art, then osteopathy will have fully come into its own and will ba rated at 1U real worth. This I is not to Imply that osteopathy has noi as great curative value as otner systems, or greater, even In apparent ly hopeless cases, for such Implica tions would be far from the truth. Osteopathy has made remarkably rapid growth In popular favor and has had its share of marvelous cures; Indeed it has o.'te.i proven effective as a Inst resort and has restored many who have been regarded a In curable, nut lti achievements of transcendent Importance are accom plished In the more valuable, if lest spectacular, field of prevention.
