Thyroid and ovarian dysfunction, one develops chronic arthritis and the other does not. Again he refers to traumatic effects as a predisposing actor of chronic arthritis, and asks why one person suffering from trauma will develop arthritis and another person suffering from an identical condition will not. the named question is asked of fatigue; again he speaks of hereditary influences and asks why one of a family will manifest an arthritic diathesis and another will not.
Speaking of age as a factor, Dr.Eaton asks why all people, as they grow old, do not suffer from arthritis, instead of a limited as they grow old, do not suffer from arthritis, instead of a limited few. He devotes some space to sepsis and focal infection as a cause of arthritis, and again asks the question, shy of two, in similar condition tone precipitates chronic infection and the other does not. Then Dr.Eaton goes in to the allergic group as causes.
It would seem that no better place could be found, nor n better questions could be asked, to bring out the answer showing the cause for these conditions developing in one family or in one person and not in another, than is here presented.
We always get an irritating cause for all disease, but back of the local irritation and local ]manifestation for all diseases lies the basis of irritation and local manifestation of all disease lies the basis of all disease- in a derangement of the vital force that controls the life-giving principles that maintain health; and no local disease is every manifest until after the vital energy is deranged.
When we, as Homoeopathic physicians, get this fact thoroughly ingrained into our concept of disease, instead of seeking the local irritation, we will study the individual patient from the local irritation, we will study the individual patient from the miasmatic point of view. This was first pointed out by Hahnemann as being the true source for chronic disease and like so other pathological theory, because this is based on facts.
It is only by working with this in mind that we can proven that local manifestations by curing the man himself. Why it is that Homoeopathic physicians do no recognize this philosophy of Hahnemann boenninghausen, Hering, Kent and the other great thinkers and teachers one cannot see; for it is entirely ignored in the modern medical college; yet without this concept of disease, we may seek in vain for the cause, nor will we find the key to the cure-H.A.R.
THE SPECIALIST INFERIOR MEDICALLY.
We are abundantly remained that this is the age of specialism. And may we add-the age of increasing medical ignorance.
The man who, at this age, is mentally unable to grasp the real raison detre of medicine, now enters himself as a specialist. In what” Surely not in medicine. Do any of us know of any drug that affects a single part or organ to the exclusion of all others” Then he who confines himself to a medical specialty in any part of the human anatomy is a man of very limited knowledge of medicine and is therefore not the superior but decidedly the inferior of general medical man and therefore his services are worth much less. This we have confirmed many, may times.
On the other hand the specialist in surgery, where only true specialist can possibly be admissible, is a man to be sought, for the he can becomes very proficient in certain operations on certain parts, because he does and can confine his activities to a certain organ, section or location and therefore his skill is greater and consequently worth more than that of the general surgeon. But even he loses his Pressive as a specialist as soon as he steps over in to the field of medicine which knows and countenances no special organ or section-.PULFORD.
Allan D. Sutherland was born in Northfield, Vermont in 1897, delivered by the local homeopathic physician. The son of a Canadian Episcopalian minister, his father had arrived there to lead the local parish five years earlier and met his mother, who was the daughter of the president of the University of Norwich. Four years after Allan’s birth, ministerial work lead the family first to North Carolina and then to Connecticut a few years afterward.
Starting in 1920, Sutherland began his premedical studies and a year later, he began his medical education at Hahnemann Medical School in Philadelphia.
Sutherland graduated in 1925 and went on to intern at both Children’s Homeopathic Hospital and St. Luke’s Homeopathic Hospital. He then was appointed the chief resident at Children’s. With the conclusion of his residency and 2 years of clinical experience under his belt, Sutherland opened his own practice in Philadelphia while retaining a position at Children’s in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department.
In 1928, Sutherland decided to set up practice in Brattleboro.
