THE OSTEOPATHIC PHYSICIAN 3 Thousand. Seek ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Scotch Bone-Setter. Glasgow, July I.-Whatever keptical men in FIRMBUT FLEXIBLE America, basing their opinious on the cable:J reports, may think of William Rae, the Scottish bonesetter, whose exploits are the talk of the United Kingdom, no one can visit the little vil lage of Blantyre, in which he has temporarily es tablished his "surgery," without obtaining abun dant evidence that the man is possessed of a wonderful gift. The little village is full of pilgrims, mostly from Lancashire and Yorkshire, afflicted with every variety of deformity, many of which have baffled the doctors for years. No need was there to ask where Rae lived. I simply followed the throng until I came to where a crowd stood around the gate of a humble cottage which has already become famous throughout England as the Scottish Lourdes. Some of the pilgrims limped painfully on crutches. Others wore clump soled boots and irons. Gray-headed men and women and little children in arms were among them. 'While [ stood there taking in the scene a young woman wltn tears of gladness trickling down her cheek.,; came out of the house and, in response to eager inquiries, related her experience. For years she had been suffering with hip disease, one leg being shorter than the other. Doctors she had tried without relief, and at last her friendd aclvised her to go to Blantyre. "It didn't hurt me a bit," she said, "not one bit. He just got hold of my leg, gave i~ a pull, then pushed it right back and it was all over. Of course, I walk just a bit lame still, as yOll see, but it feels, O! so much easier. I am to bathe the joint every morning with cold water Front View Appliance :-10, I.
