H e n r y L i turf^ a h r of Chicago, with an introductory address by Mr. Adolf Candrin. editor Health Culture Department Nordstern, l.a Crosse. The German Society e.x-tends a cordial invitation not only to its members but to all the people of La Crosse to attend this highly interesting and instructive lecture. The lecturer, Henry I.indlahr, M. D., is a practitioner of long experience. and one of the pioneers of Nature Cure in America. He is the founder of Lindlahr’s Nature C u r e S a n i t a r i u m in Chicago, conducted on the no-drug and no-operation system, and an institution with a record of re-markablv successful cures. Dr. Lindlahr is an exjiort in the “Diagnosis from the Ky e s. daily used in his practice, andthis lecture he will give convincing practical demotistra tions of it, on such of his audiencfew i waof medicine or even of “preventive medicine/” and still there lurks grave danger in them. The political doctors, l**ing in the majority and fortified with state laws, are confident of gaining complete control of this National Health Bureau, as soon as it is established. And then may Heaven have mercy on the American people, for the medical trust will “lord it’’ over us as no trust ever did before.Some notion of what this trust would lie at the start—heaven only knows what it might not Is* made to include when once firmly estnlz-lislied as part of the federal government. may Is- gleaned from the statement made by one of its promoters as reported in the “Journal of the American Medical Association.” It would control hygiene. sanitation, food, education, immigration, public and private relief, labor conditions and a dozen other things. ls*sides research laboratories and equipments.

The good people of La Crosse have of late acquired some experience on this subject, and Dr. Lindlahr may be able to enlighten them upon it, in a manner not only-interesting to every one but separately and jointly useful .to them in the future.AN INTRODUCTORY ARTICLE.V' Introductory to I)r. Lindlahr's coming lecture, and explanatory to his theme of discourse, the “Nordstern” submits the following considerations and suggestions to the thought ful people of La Crosse:Many may not know that the A m eric a n M e d i c a 1 A s s o c i a-tion, jointly designated as the M e d i e a 1 T ru s t, and a specially favored trust at that, for like not other profession it lias the state) “Ihesubjee and its laws back of it—has in I exceedingly 1 recent years stealthily placed its'much more important representatives into many inipnr-' people jtupj taut political and municipal pc ''■ ’ \ niai’K tnm tne nonat thatbefore conceived, much less proposed to l*e incorporated into the governmentThe New YorkJHerakl, a staunch advocate for medical freedom, estimates that the proposed National Health Bureau would cost the national treasury yearly at least t wo h u nil red m illi o*n dollars, and jierhajis much more, and that it would mean an era of medical tyranny unheard of in the history of any country, and disgraceful to a free and enlightened people.Of late the subject of vaccination has been of particular public interest in La Crosse, no less than elsewhere. Let us first see how it is looked upon in other states, for instance in jirogressive and wide awake California:Harry Brook, for many years editor of the “Care of the body department of the “Los Angeles Times and now publisher of the “Brain and Brawn” Magazine, writes in its recent number:SCIENTIFIC BLOOD POISONING.of vaccination is an qiortant subject—han most The average* lismisses it with the re-itions,—for obvious reasons/ A j mark that the doctors say it is all much favored vantage ground for ’ right, and let it the purposes of the doctor trust a fact, however, that a large jro-is the position of Health ( om-' portion of brorul-ininded ph\M-mfcsioncT in cities anti larger com- eians who think fortheinsolves..and munities all over the Count rw! do not rely on “authoritiesEven La Crosse now has a medical j are opposed to tins practice, al-man at the head of its health de-1 though not many of them are nartment.

(ui tin* contrary, if it had not been for vaccination smallpox would today be as rare as is t he black ji 1 a gue, also a filth disease, which has almost disappeared, with the growth of cleanliness and hygiene.”“The Miff in the efficacy of vaccination has leen largely bolstered up by the dissemination* of false facis and figures. For instance, for many years we have been told that in the Franco-German war of 1870 the German army, thoroughly vaccinated, was practically immune from smalljiox. while the French army, not vaccinated, suffered severely. T tie fact is that no statistics of vaccination and smallpox were kejit in the German army during the war of 1870. If you doubt this, write to military headquarters at Berlin.“When vaccination was first introduced it was claimed that it would render a person immune for life. This was found to 1* false. Then we were told that the ojieratiun should be performed every seven years. Now it that every time an “epn scare can be worked uji—or when the doctors get abort of sjiending money —a general vaccination should be insisted upon.''“If vaccination is bad, what shall la* said of the crime of compulsory vaccination?
