Lippincott Company, Washington Spare, Philadelphia Drugless Treatment of Typhoid. By Dr. J. Perry Conder. Paid Advertisement. The drgless doctor has every advantage over the drug loef)r iu sustaining the heart hy natural stimulation when, in thedestiurtive germ disease, it has leen weakened and battered hy the toxins of tl germs. This kind of heart support is a thousand times more rational than the use of powerful drugs which the intelligent medical man of today hate yea, trembles to use, hut which, unfortunately, he often feels eonipclled to use, knowing no other way, rather than see the patient die under his hands. And the most alarming consideration is the terrific after-effects of these drugs on the heart weeks, months or years later which account for most of the sudden deaths from so-called modern "heart failure" among patients that have len so treated. The drugless doctor controls the heart with much the assurance with which one can work tike handle of a pump fast or slow, weak or strong, as the case demands. If you doubt this statement put nie to this very effective test: I will let you put your finger on your own pulse, or I will put a sphymograph on it, and then stimulate the nerves around the cartilege of the first rill the an terior end and see whether the heart will not immediately respond. SLANDER, MISREPRESENTATION. PUGILISM Some of the very best people of this community have been led to believe slander against nie because it has leen repeated hy some, for five years, who are high in church and social circles. I think it is about time to call a halt don't you? Misrepresentation on the part of a local drug doctor as to one of my patients being professionally neglected, while in a rival hospital in this city, led me to suggest that a third physician examine the patient in our presence. Instead of complying to this sen sible procedure the dnig doctor sent for me to come to his office and he and the husband of the patient proceeded to beat me up shamefully. This is a matter of court record in both the state and city court. I think it is about time for this drug doctor to attend to his own business, if he knows how, and let my patients alone don't you ? Only a few days ago he said to the wife of a man under my care who is receiving no drugs r.t all "A few doses of medicine would straighten your husband out in a few days." Just what did he mean? as he soliciting business for himself or the undertaker ? "HISTORY OF MEDICINE" by Dr. Wilder, M. D. To show you what extremes the medical profession will go to injure one who dares expose the Drug Fetich" I will quote without comment from one of the standard "Histories of Medicine" by Alexander Wilder M. D. and copyrighted by Munn, 1899. On pages G(H to 670 you will find the following: "At the beginning of the Civil War, in 1861, it was the invariable practice in many of the Northern States for the Examining Boards to reject all applications of Reform physicians for appointment as surgeons in the Federal army. A committee of the Medical Society in the Dis trict of Columbia some years after, explained the reason for such ex clusion. 'In Episcopal religions, the Bishop gives the formula, and the minister who disputes or practically differs , is disrobed; so the only governing body in medicine in this country is the American Medical Association, the representative organ of the whole regular profession.' This was confidently regarded as the opportunity to put this prelatic authority in force. Compared to that consideration, the health and welfare of the soldiers made but a subordinate matter, "and were so treated." A new Surgeon-General, Dr. William A. Hammond, was appointed, at the desire of General McClellan, and the number of surgeons increased. Besides this, the governors of the states also provided volunteer surgeons for emergencies, who agreed to bestow their services without remunera tion. The hoard for examination of applicants rejected unqualifiedly every candidate for appointment who was not in accord with Old Physic. Nevertheless, several hundred heterodox physicians did pass Examining Boards and receive appointments. They generally found it politic, how ever, to conceal their sentiments in regard to Therapeutics. FAMOUS ORDER BY SURGEON-GENERAL HAMMOND. A prodigious excitement was created, throughout medical circles by an order of the Surgeon-General, issued on the fourth of May, 18(3. Dr. Hammond, observing from the reports of his subordinates that the use of mercury had, in innumerable cases, been attended by most baleful re sults, and remarking that the diseases prevalent in the army might as well be treated without antimony as therewith, directed that those drugs should in future be struck from the supply table and that no further requi sitions for them should be approved. The order was regarded by his professional associates as a virtual apostasy from medical orthodoxy, and a veritable scuttling of the ship in which they had sailed for three centuries following the days of Carpi and Basil Valentine. Their indignation was not concealed. They did not, however, depend simply upon a defense of their favorite drugs, but resor ted, like the masters of the exorcised Pythonic maiden, (Acts of the Apos tles, XVI., 10-21) to a more insidious mode of attack. It had been an established usage, they pleaded, that all promotions in the medical service of the Government should take place in the order of rank. Dr. Ham. mond, however, had been appointed over colleagues who ranked almve him. They demanded accordingly that he should be removed, and that the old order of promotion be restored. Dr. Hammond had exhibited a remarkable fitness for his position. He possessed superior administrative ability and capacity for organizing and executing his plans for the required improvement of the medical ser vice. At his suggestion many of the colleges of the several schools estab lished professorships of military surgery in order to fit their students to respond to the pressing exigenciesof the time. All this, however, counted for little with his adversaries, so long as he had ventured to pass beyond the cordon that circumscribed the medical arena. Medical societies adop ted resolutions denouncing him, and an abortive attempt was made to procure his -ondemnation at the annual meeting of the American Medi cal Association. Finally, however, charges were instituted against him of malfeasance and dishonest practices. A court-martial was held and he was dismissed from olliee in May, 1864. The belief, nevertheless, was very generally entertained that this en tire proceeding was coriupt and directed by personal malice, and with no adequate ground' for tho accusations. Several years later, the sentence was reversed, and Dr. Hammond indemnified. Under the new Surgeon General, the famous "Order No. VI." was speedily revoked, and the in terdicted drugs again included in the medical supplies for the army. It was also directed that henceforth only graduated physicians from the "regular medical colleges" should he accepted as surgeons in the military service.
