Let Us Not) Call Them Incurables.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox, who has be
some not less known for her broad
ninded humanltarlanlsm and pro
gressive thinking in mature life than
he was famous for her poems of sen
-iment and passion in earlier years,
loins in the opposition to naming cer-
aln of our hospitals and asylums
'Homes for Incurables." In a Chi-
i ago newspaper of recent date she
lad this to say:
"Christian D. Larson, editor of
Eternal Progress," Cincinnati, says
ome eminently excellent things. He
ipeaks particularly of the need of
changing the names of some Institu-
ions, first of all the 'homes for in-
urables.'
"Mr. Larson declares most emphat
cally that the name of such an in-
Jtitution militates against the health
ind happiness of its Inmates He
proceeds to state the fact, which
each one of us can prove in our own
jtradiLD ana ooaervauon, tnat a
arge percentage of maladies di-c-
claimed 'Incurable' by consulting phy-
ncians have eventually been cured,
ud that the sufferers' have Kone
forth well and happy to enjoy many
years of good health
"Personally I know of one young
woman who, through an accident,
was paralyzed during three years,
ind skilled specialist In America
ind Europe pronounced her Incur
able. Yet osteopathy cured her,
and she Is robust and rejoicing to
day."
