18 THE EVENING WORLD, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 12, 1922, Treatment Cures Physical Menial and Marital Ills, Declares Dr. Quackenbos New-York Psycho-Analyst Ha Himself Many Times Demonstrated Efficacy of the Treatment Cure of Can cer by This Means Is Pre dicted. By Marguerite Moocrs Marshall. Thousands ot shell-shocked sol diers havo been cured by payoho thcrnpic treatment. Civilians havo been cured by the samo trcatmcntof practically all nervous and mental ailments, of stomach and Intestinal troubles, of diabetes.

jiarrlagca havo been made happy. homes havo been reunited although In tho hands of the psycho-analysts the wrong suggestions often wreck homes. Not even tho psycho-therapist himself dare limit tho futuro possibilities of this fltlll developing science. by his i. It1 such That Js the Interesting summary of the caso today for treatment by suggestion as given me by Dr.

John O. Quackenbos, author of "Iiypnjtlo Therapeutics" and a pioneer authority in this city on the curative methods Just now being exploited so sensationally In London by trof. Emtio Coue ot Paris. "Prof. Couo, according to tho cables, has been treating the blind, tho paralyzed and other sufferers by his formula of auto-suggestion, seems to consist In making tho tlcnt repeat many times, dally, phrases as, "Ev.cry day I grow better and better," or, referring to the pain.

"It will iro. It will co." London rum been getting vastly excited ovor the professor, although the favorable lin. prcsslon of him probably has jeen more or less dissipated by what happened the other day when 1)6 tried his system on a group of shell-shocked soldiers at Tooting. Tho first man he 'treated, according to tho despatches, fell Into a violently hysterical stale 'Ills hysteria affectod his companions and they too began to shriek nnd roll on tho floor. Tho regular physicians In charge say that the recovery of theso men may have beon set back as much as two years.

"Did I'rof. Couo try to go too far?" I asked Dr. Quackenbos, when, I saw him at his apartment, No. 823 West End Avenue. "And how far can this treatment by suggestion, In which people havo been taking special Interest of, late, bo carried with safety IIIBr bHHIhP stWWwfw iQOACKENBOii shell-shocked man is an example in real life of Dr.

Jckylland Mr. Hyde. 1 do not -mean that his secondary personality Is necessarily evil, but It Is unruly, abnormal and resents tho attempt to euro or control. Dr. Quackenbos answered my first quostlon first: "1 should say tho unpleasant result of Prof.

Couo's treatment of the ehcll-Bhocked men which, 'I feel Tttrs, will not have such permanently bad effects as the orthodox practitioners fear was not duo to tho fact that Prof. Couo went too far, but, on tho contrary, to tho fact that ho dldn go far enough," said the Now York authority on troatraont by suggestion. "Apparently )io did not overcome the resistance of the shell-shocked, that Is to say the dissoluble, person ality before he tried to treat It. Tho "Thousands of shell-shocked men." added Dr. Quackenbos, "have Been cured by suggestion.

American physicians havo employed Into treatment most successfully. I myself havo curedsuch a caso. "He was a man whJ fought In the Argonnc', and all the men near hltn were killed except himself and one other. Ho Anally 'got' tho German mnchifjo gunner who had been wiping out nla comrades. After ho came home he-could not keep himself from brooding over the fact that he had killed this man.

It obsessed him, to the exclusion of everything else." "And how did you effect the euro?"

Give the children Tak-hom-a Biscuit between meals. It will be welcome and wholesome. Jop3E-yiLM Qiscurr Qmpant Branches in Over 100 Cititt I asked. Then Dr.

Quackenbos explained what. In his opinion, makes one big difference between successful ind unsuccessful treatment by suggestion, "I used physical means to overcome the physical self tho brain and if uses nnd kept the psychlo force iso on tho psyche, or soul," ho said. In other words, I put thls'-man to leop by employing trlonal. Other iperators lino chloroform. Then, ivhcn tho body was overcome, n'ffd ho patient In a passive, receptive itato.

I said, 'You killed this Goran hut lif was trying to kill you. Ie had killed your comrades. You 'ought for them and for your country. Yni will not allow yourself to -uffer longer from this morbid of yours." "Tho old Idea of hypnotic treatment, tho putting to Bleep of a. person by asking him to look Intently at a diamond ring or a silver quarter, is simply silly." said Dr.

Quackenbos emphatically. "It Is an Insult to an Intelligent person; furthermore, it docs not work In the cjso of. anybody who has not been hypnotized again nnd again aid again. Trying to subjugate in this fashion n. person whoso personality has already broken tip.

as In tho caso of the shell-shocked, simply acts as an lr-rltnnt on tho secondary, or abnormal elf, nnd the natural result Is a hysteric resistance to tho physician and to what he Is trying to do. "Uso tho material In dealing with the material. Then uso tho psychic in dealing with tho superior self, the coul, which Is ready for treatment when the body, tho senses, the brain havo been drugged into quiescence. Anothor point In successful usychlc treatment is to Impress on the patient the fact that ho Is to euro himself. Ho must not bo mado to feel that ho Is dependent on tho stronsrer 'will of the physician.

Ho must be told repeatedly, 'This Is tho thing for you to do, but youaro tho one to do It. You arc tho, master of your rate, tno captain of your "The psychoanalysts aro using suggcstlvo treatment a great deal, aro they not?" I asked. "Yes, nnd often they uso It most dangtrously," ho replied with somo emphasis. "They go on tho mistaken notion of their patron saint, Freud himself abnormal In box matters that every nervous or mental trouble Is traceable to a sex complication. Many psychoanalysts put tho worst Ideas Into the heads of their patients.

I havo had two patients from whoso heads I havo had to remove theso wrong Ideas In order to effect a cure. For Instance, a young man nbout to marry a lovely girl Is told that he should give her up and form an alliance with an Immoral woman. Or a man married to a charming nnd perfectly normal wlfo is told that ho should separato from her, since sho Is not his sex complement. "These aro two actual cases which havo come to me, and I say that the psychoanalysts who give such ndvlco are homo wreckers. Suggestion should always aim bring out what Is noble In tho character, not what Is bast.

I may add that I removed from both theso men tho wrong Ideas Implanted In them, nnd they nro now enjoying happy homo llfo with their proper mates." "Do you think that suggestion treatment by rndlo will bo posslblo?" I asked tho doctor. "It has been Ho smiled a Ilttlo, but an-wored: "I doubt this. It seems to mc there must ho closer personal contact between the physician nnd the sufferer. "But If after twenty-five years and mora than 16,000 cases, you ask mc about the futurj possibilities if psy-chothcraplc treatment," Dr. Quackenbos finished gravely, "I shall have to answer in three words, 'I don't What I can also say, however, is that ono ot tho most eminent surgeons In this city, a member, as I am, of tho Academy of Medlclno, believes that In this treatment there will bo found somo day the real euro for cancer.

The best you can do is to substitute some other sweet that is really healthful. For example, give your children a fair amount of Borden's Milk Chocolate in place of the extra dessert; or let them have it after school instead of cake or cookies. Milk Chocolate is a popular confection to be sure. But it is actually nourishing and sustaining as a food, since it contains only milk, chocolate, sugar. Of these three, the important ingredient is the milk.

Good, rich country milk is the secret of smooth fine fla vored milk chocolate. Borden's Milk Chocolate Cakes and Almond Bars arc made with the same kind of full-cream milk that has made the Borden Company famous for its milk products And they are produced under the same purity standard which distinguishes Eagle Brand and Borden's Evaporated Milk from ordinary milks. You'll find it a great saving to buy Borden' Milk Chocolate in boxes. Each box contains twenty-four well-wrapped pieces of pure, fresh chocolate. Keep a box on hand and let the whole family have some every day.

You can get Borden's at grocery stores, drug stores and candy places. THE BORDEN COMPANY Borden Building New York Eagle Grocery Co. Jersey City, N.J.
