SAUM DOCTOR MAKES GOOD JQk- O. iL. Scott, who is probably the best known Chiropractor in the state of Oregon, and who probably has as many cures to his credit as any other practitioner in the state or in the United States for that matter, for the time he has been practicing his chosen profession, will begin a series of advertisments telling our people of his wonderful ad vantages to be gained by using his methods of practicing ano adjustments for the relief of the many ills that the human body is heir to. He has a reputation for straight 'forward dealing with his patients, and will have many interesting facts to relate from time to time through these columns. Ur. Scott is a real Oregon pioneer. His father came to Marion county fit the.close of the Civil War, and settled at Scotts Mills, to which place he gave the name. His mother’s family came here in 1852—70 years ago. An £arly Convert. .Dr. Scott was one of the early con verts to the profession of healing by mechanical adjustment; he graduated from the great Palmer school at Dav enport, Iowa, in 1910—the whole sci ence dates back only 25 years! He has no other equipment but his X-ray machine .with which to photograph his patients for careful, accurate study of .their ailments; and his charts and his hands and his experience. Yet he had the priviledge of serving as, an instructor for Dr. Alfred Walton, M. <D. (Harvard, 1879). who later turned his back on his own old med ical lore and sat at the feet of the teach ers of the new science where the old practice was a guess. Dr. Walton, in a notable booklet, quotes Dr. Richard Cabot, giving the autopsy records from the Massachusetts General Hospital, showing; that 47 per cent of the origin al diagnoses made by an exceptionafly skilled hospital staff, were found to be incorrect— and the patients were fatal ly treated for diseases that did not ex ist! The Chiropractic treatment offers an absolute remedy against mis-dosing; Dr. Walton absorbed it, and is one of the greatest exponents today. Courage of Convictions. Dr. Scott has had the sublime cour age of his convictions that his science * is sufficient for most human ills. It does not dose or bake or electrify them to palliate or narcotize them for temp orary relief. It goes to the seat of the trouble, which it claims is mostly nerves. A nerveless body, or portion of the body, is weakened by the loss of sensation and motion; paralysis, or decay, or a lowered health condition that makes the affected parts a prey to every ill that can reach them for an attack, follow inevitably this loss of nerve control. Germs and aches, and every damning pain, attack the crippled portion of the body. 1 here is only one way out—restore the mechanism to proper adjustment, and health is inevitable. Has Ma de Notable Success Dr. Scott haß made a notable suc cess in his profession. His offices in the U. S. B ank Bldg, are usually like a voting booth on election day—for people believe in what he has proven to them of 1 lis theory in shirtsleeves. If people flock to his latest health road, and g o away smiling and cured, it is because5 it has made good; they care not ho w, or why, but they know the effects, and are glad. OR. O. L.
