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. It seems to have beon supposed mat mis would lie ettectual in
