The Indians are constantly changing their degree of latitude in their hunting tours, drinking different waters, and viewing different scenery, and constantly indulging in those habits of life that divert the mind and keep the entire organization in a happy and a pleasant condition, which is promotive of health and physical development, and the Indians are, as a whole, a healthy race of people. If Indian habits of life are healthy and promotive of health, such habits and changes of climate will do equally the same with the white man. Take from the dry-goods counter the clerk that is predisposed to consumption, weak, pale, and debilitated, and put him into the mountains with dog and gun, and let him live as Indians do, and the result is, he soon becomes flush in the face, gains flesh, and comes home hale and hearty. I can conscientiously recommend it as good for all patients in a state of general debility, to change climate, breathe pure air, live on plain nutritious diet, and be cheerful.

There are as many diseases as there are organs in our body, and I am of the firm belief that there is a remedy for every disease if it were only known, and I believe the only method that will bring these remedies into practice, is liberty and freedom of thought on the part of the various departments or schools of the medical profession, and the privilege of all to let the people try them. The allopaths have a code of ethics that restricts them from counseling with any doctor, unless he is a regular, and of his own faith. Such a code only casts a shadow of bigotry and discredit on themselves. A wise man will glean knowledge from whatever source it may come; a fool will say all are quacks but those that believe as he does. Incorporated professions may stand for a while, but when people become educated to that degree that they reason from cause to effect, and think for themselves, they will have to hoist the flag of liberty on the mast-head of their old ship called Code of Ethics, and extend the hand of friendship to all, and own that there are other men that know as well as themselves.
