Why Osteopathy is Not Massage
First: Because the lesser cannot
include the greater. Osteopathy is
both a science and an art. As a
science it includes the broad sciences
of Biology, Anatomy, Physiology and
Pathology. Us scope and its thera
peutics, while independent and^ orig
inal, are coextensive with the held
known as medical and surgical. Mass
age is nothing of the sort.
Second: Because, as an art, osteo
pathy is wider in its application than
either medicine or surgery singly,
treating with conspicuous success a
wide range of cases in both fields.
It does not require less intelligence and
scientific attainment to represent os
teopathy properly than either medi
cine or surgery. Massage is not per
mitted to assume responsibility for
the full care of disease except under
a physician’s direction. The osteo
path by contrast is himself a physi
cian
Third: Because, insofar as their
work is parallel—that is, where they
attempt to accomplish similar things
—they work by entirely different
principles and with a technique en
tirely dissimilar. Osteopathy frees
up pressure on blood vessels and
nerves by adjusting displacements of
bone, cartilage, ligament' tendon, fas
cia or muscle wherever it is found,
and by relaxing contractures of mus
cle and ligaments wherever existent,
whether these be due to prior dis
placement, congestion as from taking
cold, over-work of the nerves, or yet
other causes. Finally, in order to
stimulate circulation after such ob
structions are removed, osteopathy
does net rub or apply pressure over
the veins, but manipulates the ner
vous system through its various cen
ters, either to stimulate or inhibit
energy, so that the vasomotor ap
paratus may bring about the desir
ed action in a physiological manner
—that is, by increasing heart action
and opening up the channels of cir
culation. Massage deals with an ef
fect; osteopathy concerns itself pri
marily with causes.
Fourth: Osteopathy does not con-1
slst of rules of action; its technique
is not mastered by mere Imitation,
and it is a matter of common remark
that no two osteopaths treat the same
cue in exactly the same way. It#
practitloneh) are taught to.reasonout
each cue from the conditions exist
ing and tp apply principle^ of cor
rection; adjustment and normalisation
in the most common sense way.
SENSITIVE CAT A SUICIDE.
Billy Was Slapped and Then Ran In
Front of Automobile.
Bloomfield, N. J.—Miss Lucy Bergen
ot Washington street, In tills town, Is
sure that her large black cat commit
ted suicide deliberately, and many per
sons who saw the tragic end of her pet
agreed with her.
The cat ran out to the middle of the
street in front of its home and awaited
the approach of an automobile. The
chauffeur saw the animal and steer
ed in next the curb to avoid hitting
It. But the cat crawled toward the
curb, judging the distance so as to
get exactly in front of the wheels of
the auto, which ran over it
Miss Bergen said: “1 was putting
a pink ribbon on Billy’s neck in honor
of his thirteenth birthday, when ho
scratched my hand, for which 1 gave
him a sharp blow on the sjide of the
head with my open hand. He jumped
off the table and sought refuge behind
a gas range in the kitchen. I felt
sorry for what I had done and tried
to coax him out, but he paid no at
tention to me, and at the first oppor
tunity he ran out the kitchen door.
“I thought he would soon return,
and after bathing my wound I went
into tlie parlor and sat by the win
dow. From there X saw Billy lying
in the street. Then I saw the auto
mobile coming and I ran to the door.
Billy’s actions prove to me that he
wanted to die, for the driver of the au
tomobile did everything possible to
avoid running over him.”
CHURCH GIVES FREE LUNCH.
Saloonkeepers Know Men, Saye Pas
tor—Some Preachers Don’t.
Cincinnati.—To make the church as
attractive to the needy as the saloon,
the Rev. A. N. Kelly adopted the plan
of providing free lunch at his church
every evening from 7:30 to 8:30 o’clock.
Soup, coffee, sandwiches and cakes
are served. After the free lunch there
is a sermon. A few who have no place
for the night will bo invited to rest
a bit In the upholstered plush pews.
“There are some things we can learn
from the saloon keeper,” said the Rev.
Mr. Kelly. “The saloon keeper knows
men. A great many preachers do not
Men, especially the down and outs, do
not go to saloons just to become sod
den. They find warmth and cheer and
food, all a down and out man immedi
ately wants. To compete with the sa
loon I serve a better lunch."
HAD PRESENTIMENT
OF A TRAGIC DEATH
Young Woman Who Had Shot
Husband Bought Coffin.
1 -
Fort Worth, Tex.—A presentiment
that she would soon die a violent death
induced Mrs. Ettn Miller of this city
to select her own cottin only three
days before she was shot and killed
by her father-in-law, Joe Miller. When
she told friends that she had called
at an undertaker’s and bought a cof
fin they jested her. She said no threats
had been made against her life, but
tear of being killed haunted her day
and night
Mrs. Miller a few months ago shot
and killed her husband, John Miller.
The latter’s father brooded over his
son’s death, but be bad made no
threats of violence. Mrs. Miller own
ed a rooming house and was worth
considerable money.
The shooting on a crowded down
town street caused a panic. Mrs. Mil
ler and her sixteen-year-old daughter,
Pauline, had been resting in a small
park near the Flatiron building, and
Miller lurked behind a corner, listening
to their laughter. When they started
to walk off he approached them hur
riedly, drew his revolver and shot Mrs.
Miller through the forehead. While
the woman’s body was on the side
walk he fired two more shots into it
He did not speak a word.
Mrs. Miller was convicted of killing
her husband and received a two-year
sentence. The court, however, sus
pended her sentence and she was at
liberty pending good behavior. She
had asserted that she loved her hus
band and expected to live with him
again If he recovered. Next day after
she made this statement he filed suit
tor divorce, but died while the suit was
pending.
The older Miller paces his cell in the
county jail and is showing signs of re
morse. “I must have been crazy to
do it,” he says, ‘‘but how I loved that
boy! He was all 1 had.’’
