PREFACE. 
 
 The brain is the light by which all things and 
 conditions become known, of human abilities and 
 disabilities, mentally and physically, by a standard 
 rule of diagnosis. The mandates of nature never 
 fail to direct us in the right path; if we study them 
 carefully as we ought, we find them free from capri- 
 ciousness. 
 
 This science is of the utmost importance, as it 
 educates the people to tlie highest standard of intel- 
 lectual and physical development by the elucidation 
 of every condition TO A DEGREE, FROM ONE TO TEN, and 
 removes every doubt by vivifying latent functions 
 that still remain a mystery to those who depend 
 upon the simple rules of common practice where the 
 double root is required. We must progress upon the 
 rules of law and order of nature, without which our 
 knowledge of men's ability and development is vague 
 and unsatisfactory ; with it everything in sickness 
 and health; as shown by these Charts we need fre- 
 quent examinations as a preservative of life and 
 strength. The most evenly developed people are the 
 most healthy, active, practical workers, and reliable 
 citizens, that live the longest, when the temperaments 
 are propitiously blended. 
 
 But this science, like all others, has its difficul- 
 ties, such as very thick skulls, coarse hair, fleshy 
 heads, sensitive temperaments that are easily excited ; 
 the head puffs and is pulpy, thus rendering accurate 
 delineations more difficult, and repeated examina- 
 tions a necessity, as it is the only science that gives 
 the proper knowledge of ourselves anrid capabilities, 
 and for what business or profession nature has de- 
 signed us, to ensure success in life. 
 
INTRODUCTORY. 
 
 Anatomical and Pathological Phrenology 
 
 fills a place long sought and much needed for the successful 
 completion of the medical skill in practice and its literature. 
 It is free from professional technicalities, and it comprehends 
 the whole man. It imparts unlimited knowledge of the 
 human system, and is acknowledged by the most scientific 
 men of the age to be the missing links, and the desideratum 
 of life, as taught and practiced by the author, with the suc- 
 cess that knows no equal. As no time is lost in undue ex- 
 periments, reflex have no limit, and the positive and negative 
 tell the story. 
 
 No physician can be thorough without a perfect knowl- 
 edge of the whole man. 
 
 Dr. W. Wilson's " Guide for Physicians" teaches that 
 knowledge. It is a library in itself — a work that will live 
 through all time, and revolutionize every school of practice. 
 Science is greater than men. 
 
 As it corrects many errors in anatomy that are arbitrary, 
 the details of which are reliable, instructive and interesting, 
 and presents that science in a new light, with a standing 
 rule of diagnosis from a reflex of divine law, wisely pro- 
 vided in mathematical order, it shows the absurdity of 
 
vivisection, and the analogy of the human system to that of 
 the animal, as a fallacy. 
 
 It treats on the principles of automatism and the organs 
 most influenced by its functions. Also, the principles of 
 economy in the evolutions of the recuperatives and respira- 
 tives. and the organs that do the most work, and most liable 
 to accidents, over-taxation, disease and fractures, and if 
 skilfully treated or not; the evil effects of malpractice of 
 mercury, errors in the treatment of consumption as a lung 
 disease, and all complicated diseases that have become 
 chronic from ignorance of this science, that represents up- 
 wards of five hundred diseases unknown by any other rules 
 oi science in materia medica. 
 
 The claims of Phrenology are not less arbitrary, 
 
 as the human system is constantlv changing : some organs 
 more than others, and in some people more than in others. 
 These facts have -jailed the vision of science for ages. But 
 the revolution of time and study have overcome the mystery. 
 emitting light that presents these hidden stimulators in their 
 irradiance and erratic functions with equal celerity, unfold- 
 ing the rules of organs that fluctuate most, and those of the 
 least, and those that are stationary, and why so. Also, the 
 organs that do the most work, and the kind of work, and 
 most liable to suffer changes from over-taxation, malforma- 
 tion, accidents, disease, domestic disappointments, death, 
 and the social disqualifications, business and financial diffi- 
 culties, and the conflict of human events, and not the less in- 
 cluding prosperity, that reflects repose and stimulates ambi- 
 
tion, so aspiring and divine, that makes man the noblest 
 work of God, that would be impossible without this sympa- 
 thetic organization of many parts, with each and all a 
 specific work, mapped out with such accuracy that teaches 
 every mission so plain that it is within the reach of all ; hence 
 ostracism of this science, the gift of God, has become a high 
 crime. The penalty of ignorance afflicts communities, and 
 individuals suffer alike. Reader, yon know that yon are an 
 organized being, and it is a duty yon owe yourself to study 
 these organs, and to preserve them. The value of this sci- 
 ence is beyond price, for the culture and development of 
 future generations, the practicability of which is best known 
 by those who are recipients of its benefits. As a proof of 
 this experience, read the Testimonials at the end of this book 
 as samples of the many constantly coming to the Doctor. 
 
 Those wishing to learn this science can do so by studying 
 the " Guide for Physicians," in process of publication.

 The organs from eight to ten must be restrained, as they absorb the 
 excess of nutrition, which renders the weak weaker, and the person less 
 practical. 
 
 Temperaments. — These functions are of the highest importance to 
 be observed in the delineation of character, as they indicate the quality of 
 the brain. There are but few persons perfect specimens of the above 
 types, and in proportion as they partake of one or the other, the blending 
 of such characteristics will decide the character of taste, ability, disposi- 
 tion, deportment and psychology; of affinity between the positive and neg- 
 ative; if not, the human superiority or organization becomes a myth, past 
 finding out, supernatural.

 These organs are to the mind what the alphabet is to our language, 
 and can only become practical as we are educated in their significance, the 
 validity ot which is to place every person in that legitimate sphere which 
 gives .success to life. 
 
 Every person has a faculty for a distinctive position of usefulness 
 which, if properly trained, could be moulded into shape and identified as 
 time and culture develops and modifies every extremity. 
 
 Civilization demands that we shall be educated equal to the highest 
 aspiration-, the character of which can only be classified by science that 
 produces speedy results in the equipoise worthy of emulation. 
 
 This chart is headed with the scale of power and efficiency of develop- 
 ment of the several organs as revealed by the examination from one to ten 
 degrees, and marked under such heading as the best judgment of the exam- 
 iner will permit, which at times is not so accurate as the nature of the 
 science itself. 
 
 We are not supernatural beings, but organized photogenics so punc- 
 tilious as to require experts, educated to the dignity of the proper applica- 
 tion of these exhibits, of electric forces of light to our path for the expia- 
 tion of every evil tendency.

 to nature's mandates, of specialties, whether physician or surgeon, or in 
 law as a legal adviser or pleader at the bar, preacher or teacher, statesman,

 or instrumental music, if vender or purchaser, direct domestic affinity, and 
 how to train the offspring in the way they should go. 
 
 J-fgl^The organs from I to 5 must be cultivated; those from 8 to 10 
 must be restrained, as they consume the access of nutrition which renders 
 the weak weaker. The most even development constitutes the most 
 practical people, every capacity is known by the classification of these

 ANATOMICAL AND PATHOLOGICAL CHART, 
 
 Showing the Conditions of Health, and Instructions to Pre-

 By Dr. W. WILSON.

 Dr. W. has lectured extensively upon these discoveries to men of the 
 highest intellectual ability with flattering success, and is now making en- 
 gagements to lecture in many institutions of learning, and those interested 
 in scientific discovery will take great interest in his book, as it illustrates 
 upwards of three hundred different diseases in their respective degrees of 
 severity; also the accidents, and how they took place; and the condition 
 of the brain under such influences of registered reflex from one centre to 
 the other as a constitutional constituent depending upon these develop- 
 ments for support, thus, by the brain; you diagnose the one condition of 
 the body by the condition of the other ; and it is believed to be the first 
 and only book of the kind ever written. It gives a full account of every 
 case, and shows the close resemblance of the extremities, " a priori" from 
 the cause to the effect ; the initials of the patients and places of residence 
 are given ; and is written with such care as to correct many errors of anat- 
 omy and phrenology by the embellishment of such requisite qualifications 
 as to be read by pupil and student with equal interest, as it elucidates 
 those intricate, sympathetic relations so mysterious to the primeval and 
 medieval ages, and to assist the student, the self teacher of phrenology is a 
 part of this work, with upwards of two hundred illustrations which will be 
 found very instructive as a preliminary, thus making a complete scientific 
 work of more than five hundred illustrations. 
 
 Jgg^The writer is preparing new Busts up to this standard of dis- 
 covery, and his next work will be a treatise on the effect of the different 
 organs upon each other and their similarity of symptoms, and the perils 
 of depending upon such signs that renders success in the practice of med- 
 icine an impossibility — for reasons herein presented. 
 
 The human being becomes a power over himself when he can measure 
 his proclivities and abilities to a degree. 
 
 Jl^gp^ Every examination is illustrated with Busts and Anatomical Dia- 
 grams. 
 
 All conditions explained and questions answered, but none asked 
 under any pretext. 
 
 DR. W. WILSON'S DISPENSARY, 
 
 237 Longwood Ave., Boston, Mass. 
 
 Office hours from 9 to 12 A. M., and 2 to 5 P. M. Persons can be 
 examined at their residence, prices according to distance, notice of name 
 and address being left at the office.

 These discoveries are highly appreciated by all that comes within their 
 reach, and not a few are recipients of the practicability and efficacy of diag- 
 nosis, and speedily assuaging every difficulty that afflicts the human family. 
 It accomplishes more in five minutes than the most skillful physician in so 
 many months in blind fantasia, experiment, and so acknowledged by many 
 who fill the highest positions in public institutions of learning, others in 
 the medical faculty, as head physicians, more than thirty years. 
 
 Some pronounce them the missing links, others the "desideratum," " a 
 thing desired," and "ad rem" "to the point ;" " in-rerum natura" "in the 
 nature of things;" "jure divino" "by divine law;" " ecce homo" "be- 
 hold the man;" and "ecce signum" "behold the sign." Before using 
 "materia medica" "substances of the healing art," and "in hoc signo vin- 
 ces" "in this sign thou shalt conquer;" "finis coronat opus" "the end 
 crowns the work." 
 
 In the absence of these rules all nature weeps, and the medical litera- 
 ture is draped in mourning and lamentation over the failure of medicine as 
 now practised, void of a standard rule of diagnosis for which there is no 
 excuse but that of ostracism, which- reduces the faculty to the humility of 
 interrogating the suppliant who knows less than the supplier, whose duty

 A Revolution in Medical Science — The Key-note 
 Discovered. 
 
 The Wonderful System of Dr. Wilson. 
 
 From our Special Portland Correspondent. 
 
 Gall, Spurzheim and George Combe, the originators of phrenological science, 
 arrived at tneir conclusions after deep research and painstaking, methodical study. 
 Under their auspices phrenology took a grand leap as a pronounced science, and 
 was thought worthy of the attention of eminent scientists of all classes. That this 
 great science should have fallen into disrepute was because the originators had no 
 worthy successors. Mountebanks took it up merely to make a living, and when we 
 say this we do not exclude even the great New York expounders. These exponents 
 merely skimmed the surface, committed to memory the nomenclature, and were sim- 
 ply parrots repeating what they had learned, though bringing to their aid some nat- 
 ural ability and shrewdness. 
 
 The fact is that phrenology has a deeper meaning than even Gall and Spurzheim 
 suspected. With, all their ability they stood only at the portals, never divining how 
 full of significance were their important discoveries. What are the secrets which 
 phrenology is the key to? We answer, to a thorough knowledge, and correct as it 
 is thorough, of the whole physical as well as mental system. The whole life, its 
 former as well as present state in health and disease, is written as plainly as the sun 
 in daylight to him who has made it a study, and had the professors of the last gene- 
 ration followed up the path, only dimly seen by the first discoverers, we should have 
 had to-day a medical science worthy of the name instead of the empiricism which the 
 most advanced schools can only teach. Accurate knowledge would have been sub- 
 stituted for guess work, and the doctor, instead of groping in the dark, covering 
 his ignorance with technical terms, and being obliged to experiment before he could 
 attempt a care, would start at once with a perfect diagnosis ; his course would be in- 
 dicated as plainly as the compass directs the mariner, and the race would have been 
 advanced a century in its progress. These are strong words, but are justified by re- 
 cent developments. The occasion of them is the result of a conversation with Dr. 
 W. Wilson, now at the United States Hotel in Portland, a lifelong student of phre- 
 nological science and a gentleman of marked medical ability. He has lectured 
 before crowded houses in our principal cities, and he is never more pleased than to 
 have physicians, especially experienced ones, interrogate him. His starting point is 
 the formula, "the brain is the light by which alf things and conditions become 
 known." Nature is never false — it is our misconception of her answers that mis- 
 leads. But what starting has the ordinary physician? Absolutely none. He pro- 
 ceeds, blindlv, more of less, and depends more upon the recuperative powers of 
 nature than upon his own drugs to bring a patient through. How different with the 
 simple yet accurate system of Dr. Wilson. He interrogates nature at her fountain 
 head. No doubt agitates him as to the answer. He knows that he will obtain a 
 correct and certain reply. Not only the present state of the system is laid open to 
 him, but the past. The*re is no complication that is not unravelled to his vision. He 
 never asks the patient a question. He knows better than the patient himself, and of 
 course the remedy to be pin-sued is indicated with the same certainty. Dk. Wilson 
 ha-; now in press a work which embodies the truths briefly indicated ab">ve. In the 
 meantime he is practising his profession with complete success. For the past two 
 
49 
 
 years he has devoted himself to the preparation of Ids work, and when it appears we 
 venture the assertion that it wdl work a revolution in the prevailing medical trach- 
 ing and practice, and prove the greatest blessing of the century to humanity. Our 
 Eastern readers who are afflicted with disease in any shape an: invited to call upon 
 him at the hotel above mentioned. It' lie does not state their illness with certaintv, 
 and without asking a single question, and if he does not radically cure every case he 
 takes, then no pay will be received and no confidence asked. One thing is certain, 
 the world is bound to hear from him and award him the credit due to Ins brilliant 
 and most important discoveries. 
 
 From the Portland Evening Express. 
 To the People of Portland and Vicinity : 
 
 As I am obliged to leave for Lewiston on Friday, June 9th, I am happy to inform 
 my many patrons who were unable to see me during my limited stay in your city, 
 that Dr.* W. Wilson, the celebrated lecturer on physiology and the laws of health, 
 will occupy the same rooms, at the United States Hotel, and treat all patients who 
 may favor him with a call. I have been acquainted with Dr. Wilson for a number 
 of years, and I take pleasure in certifying that he is a thoroughly educated physician 
 and surgeon. I can assure all who may need his services that they will find in him 
 no charlatan, but a gentleman educated for his profession, in the best colleges which 
 this country and England can afford. People have great confidence in him, as he 
 tells you of every ache and pain without asking a question, the same as I have prac- 
 tised during my stay here. 
 
 Yours truly, 
 June 7, 1SS2. JOHN H. WILBUR, M. D., Portland, Maine. 
 
 Pittsburgh, Pa., March 19, 1S7S. 
 This certifies that I have attended some of Dr. Wilson's lectures and consider 
 him far in advance of any man I have seen in my fifty years of professional practice. 
 He has a remarkable faculty of diagnosis which is destined to do a great amount 
 of good to the human race. 
 
 Respectfully, A. L. TITUS, M. D. 
 
 Pittsburgh Female College, June 15th, 1878. 
 I regard Dr. W. Wilson as the most wonderful man I have ever met. I have 
 been present at his lectures, and have undergone examination by him, and I am 
 thoroughly convinced that he has science for his basis, and is therefore entitled to 
 the earnest consideration of every one who is in the least interested in scientific in- 
 vestigation and discovery. He never fails to interest and instruct his audience. He 
 is thorough master of his subject, having spent nearly a lifetime in patient, laborious 
 study, and comes to us recommended by the highest authority in Europe and Amer- 
 ica. Our advice is, hear him by all means. 
 
 HIBBARD PHILLIPS, Prof, of Languages. 
 
 To Whom it may Concern : 
 
 Dr. W. Wilson, a lecturer of great merit, has been in this city for some time 
 past, and wdierever he has lectured has astonished the people by his wonderful abil- 
 ity to tell of mental and physical disabilities peculiar to the human family. 
 
 He caused considerable astonishment among our medical practitioners by being 
 able — demonstrating to the entire satisfaction of all who hear him — to tell of the 
 location of diseases and how to prevent them.

 The Greatest Medical Achievement of the Age. — This is to certify 
 that Dr. Wilson abstracted a reptile from me, of the dimensions of one inch diam- 
 eter and eight in length. It had caused me untold suffering for years. No other 
 doctor could understand the cause of my affliction. I now enjoy the best of health; 
 many thanks to your skill.

Brownsville, Pa., May 31, 1S7S. 
 This certifies that Dr. W. Wilson, the bearer, is a wonderful man in his profes- 
 sion. In his lectures in our church he demonstrated what was to me a new thought, 
 namely, that the brain is the index of the entire man. 
 
 To my profound astonishment he diagnosed by the condition of the head, and 
 was able'to detect the absence of a tooth, finger or toe, disease of the lungs, or 
 stomach, or bowels, or liver, or anything pertaining to our organization. 
 
 While thoroughly posted in phrenology, he excels all others I have ever heard 
 or read of in being able to detect disease and prescribe a fitting remedy. I am con- 
 vinced that this is not guess work, but science, and will soon be recognized as such. 
 Facts are stubborn things and cannot be successfully denied. I commend him to 
 the confidence of the public, and view him in the light of a benefactor.

 ANOTHER MEDICAL MIRACLE. 
 
 Dr. Wilson, Portland ^ Me. : 
 
 Dear Sir: — Your wonderful skill has made me a new man. Before seeing 
 you I was for years a great sufferer from an affliction that no physician understood 
 or gave me the least in formation or help. My head at times drove me to distraction, 
 and the stomach so weak that I suffered everything from indigestion and pain; the 
 kidneys just as weak; my back was so weak that I could not lift or stoop without 
 considerable pain, and my nerves so run down that I was sinking every day. I 
 could not sleep, eat, walk, or get up and down stairs without the greatest difficulty, 
 when some of your patients came in to see me, and told of what wonderful 
 cures you had made upon them, and advised me to consult you. 
 
 I shall never forget the impression made upon me — to think of the clear and ac- 
 curate knowledge you displayed in telling of every feeling of suffering that I en- 
 dured from such a complication of diseases that no one but you could give me the 
 least satisfaction or help. You told me everything better than I could explain to 
 you myself — without asking me a word, and that gave me confidence in you, and, 
 thank God! my health is all that I could wish. All the pains are gone, and I have 
 gained 15 pounds in weight within a few weeks. I can run up and down stairs, two 
 or three steps at a time, and attend to my business with a pleasure, and everybody 
 is wondering to see such a change for the better. 
 
 Thanking you for your attention and skill, hoping all your patients will meet 
 with the same success, I remain, Your truly, 
 
 Jan. iS, 1883. JOSEPH BERRY, 50 Cumberland St. 
 
 Dr. W. Wilson : 
 
 Dear Sir : — It is of the utmost gratification to me to find myself so restored to 
 my former self in health and strength, as a result of your remarkable skill, after suf- 
 fering so many years of untold and inexpressible pains from a complicated debility 
 that no other doctor could understand. I had consulted the best medical skill in Bos- 
 ton and Portland, after our local physicians had been treating me for years at a great 
 expense without helping me a cent's worth. At length I was advised to consult you, 
 and you have done me all the good in the world, and my friends and neighbors are 
 astonished, and as much delighted as I am. I hope that you will be as successful in 
 the restoration to health of all your patients as you have been in my case. I shall 
 ever remember you, and feel grateful for your kind attention and skill.

 Dear Sir : — I have so improved under your treatment that I am able to attend 
 to my duties every day. You have astonished all my friends with your wonderful 
 ability to tell of every peculiarity of my complicated condition, that so baffled the 
 
 physicians at the hospital where I had been attending for months, to tell or to locate 
 my disease or help me in the least. Under your wonderful skill I am well. With 
 thanks, Yours truly,

 ease from the brain, that has done me so much good. Thanking you for your skill,

 is truly wonderful. No one will believe it but those who enjoy its benefits. Thank-

 Dr. W. Wilson : 
 
 Dear Sir: — For some weeks I have been trying to frame some words that 
 would express the gratitude that fills my heart when I realize the wonderful skill 
 that you have bestowed upon me, in the restoration of my health, after being given 
 up to die by four other physicians before I saw you, who said that I was beyond 
 cure, being in the last stage of consumption. But hearing of so many wonderful 
 cures that you had made, as a last resort I was advised to send for you, and I shall 
 ever bless that day when my husband ushered vou into my room. When you exam- 
 ined me and told of every ache and pain that afflicted me, without asking me a word, 
 you promised to cure me, and you have been as good as your word. Wishing that 
 every sick person could reach you, and receive your skill, I shall ever remain your 
 Grateful Friend,

 From Portland Morning Argus. 
 Dr. W. Wilson : 
 
 Dear Sir : — You have almost raised me from the dead. For eight long years 
 of experience with other doctors, and paying a fortune for doctor's bills, without re- 
 ceiving the least benefit, but sinking daily in despair, coughing day and night, could 
 keep nothing on my stomach, and was reduced to a skeleton, and almost dead, and 
 was preparing for" my funeral, I heard of some wonderful cures made by Dr. Wil- 
 son, and I was advised to consult him. He pronounced my case consumption, and 
 then explained my feelings better than I could tell them, without asking me a word. 
 He has made me a new woman ; I am strong, and do my own work with a pleasure, 
 through his marvellous skill. Should any afflicted person wish to see me, I will 
 tell them of what I have experienced with sickness and other doctors.

 ANOTHER MEDICAL MIRACLE. 
 Dr. W. Wilson : 
 
 Dear Sir : — Under your wonderful skill I have so improved in health as to become 
 a new creature. Before seeing- you my case was hopeless, after being- treated for 
 years by many of the so-called best physicians without the least benefit; none of 
 them understood my case and suffering-, only as I could tell them, with my imperfect 
 knowledge of the complicated character of my debility, after a thousand and one 
 questions being asked. But you, without asking me a word, after examining me, 
 explained my every feeling of aches and pains better than I could tell them; your 
 science really comprehends an unlimited knowledge of the human being, and your 
 curative abilities are equal to your skilful diagnosis, which astonishes not only my- 
 self, but my friends, who claim that I look twenty years younger, and that is just 
 how I feel, thanks be to your skill. Yours truly,

 Dr. W. Wilson : 
 
 Dear Sir: — I am at a loss to know how to express myself in thanking you, for 
 your wonderful skill has made me a new man. Before seeing you I was a great 
 .sufferer from an affliction that no other doctor could tell anything about, or do me 
 the least good. But your new science of diagnosing diseases comprehends the 
 whole fabric of the human being, with all its complications; it is truly wonderful 
 with what accuracy you are able to explain my complicated disease, when so many 
 other physicians, of acknowledged skill, have failed to understand the first thing 
 about my suffering and loss of strength and vitality, and sleeplessness. I owe my 
 life to your skill. With many thanks, I shall ever remain 
 Your grateful patient,

 The Greatest Medical Achievement of the Age. 
 
 Dr. W. Wilson has done more for me in three weeks than it was thought pos- 
 sible for all the medical men in the United States to do in a lifetime. He has a won- 
 derful natural gift to understand everything about the human being, and his powers 
 of healing are quite equal to that of diagnosing diseases. He explains everything 
 about you most astonishingly, without asking a question. 
 
 I was a great sufferer for years, and have consulted all the best physicians I 
 know of without receiving the least benefit or satisfaction. My sufferings were be- 
 yond description ; and I became reduced to a skeleton. My case was so complicated 
 that my physicians gave me up to die as incurable; pronounced il the last stage of 
 consumption. I could keep nothing on my stomach, nor rest night or day. But 
 now I am restored to health, but am at a loss to find words to express my gratitude. 
 I can onlv sav, let all suffering humanitv go to Dr. Wilson and be saved.

 Another Medical Miracle. 
 Dr. W. Wilson: 
 
 Dear Sir : — I shall ever feel grateful to you for the ability you have displayed 
 in my case In the short space of four weeks you have made me a new creature. 
 Before seeing you my condition was hopeless, and I was sinking every day in de- 
 spair, as I could get no help. My physicians gave me up, being in the last stage of 
 consumption. But you have raised'me up to my former self. I now feel strong; 
 my work is a pleasure; I am full of hope. No person would believe such a change 
 could be produced in the time, but those who know me and experience these benefits. 
 You are a true friend to the afflicted, and master of your profession. I cheerfully 
 recommend you to all suffering humanity. 
 Yours truly,

 From the Eastern Argus, June 17, 1SS4. 
 Dr. W. Wilson last evening delivered another of his remarkable lectures in 
 Congress Hall, to a larg^e and intelligent audience of progressive minds. His lee- 
 tures are instructive and interesting; his theory is original and new, as he diagnoses 
 disease from the examination of the head, and he imparts unlimited knowledge of 
 the human being. 
 
 From the Morning Press, December 16th, 1SS2. 
 
 Dr. W. Wilson, in Congress Hall, delivered the last of his Course of Lectures 
 last evening with flattering success. His large audiences were composed of intelli- 
 gent citizens, who manifested great interest in his new science, as he explained tne 
 nature and character of dropsy, paralysis, complicated diseases, and consumption, 
 and the reason why the faculty failed to cure so many diseases — they had no estab- 
 lished rules of diagnosis. He complimented the faculty of this city, and said that 
 he had seen better surgical operations performed in Portland than in any city in the 
 world. The doctor explained at considerable length the relations of the different or- 
 gans to each other, and those that do the most work in the evolutions of life, and 
 most liable to get out of order. He then invited the audience to send upon the plat- 
 form subjects for examination, and he would prove that the brain was the index and 
 sun-dial of life, by which he would tell just what condition that life was in. There 
 was no lack of subjects. He examined a dozen or more, with remarkable success in 
 every case. He explained every condition of accident and debility, from head to 
 foot, and showed them on diagrams the severity to such a degree, that proved the 
 doctor to be extensively acquainted with the human system. He then invited the 
 audience to examine the skulls, with the marks that showed the accidents and dis- 
 eases that caused death. 
 
 The doctor has been invited to repeat these lectures, as they are the most inter- 
 esting and instructive of anything of the kind ever delivered in Portland. 
 
 The doctor can be consulted at the United States Hotel. 
 
 From the Evening Express, May 19, 18S4. 
 
 Dr. W. Wilson' 5 Course of Lectures closed on Saturday, 17th, with remark- 
 able success, attended by many of the leading progressive minds of both sexes, who 
 displaved great interest in the science of self-knowledge, that is all important in this 
 progressive age. The doctor is a man of remarkable ability, introducing new theo- 
 ries in the practice of diagnosing diseases that are destined to revolutionize the 
 present system of the medical schools of practice. He proves the brain to be the 
 index of every mental and physical condition of ability and disability to a degree. 
 He examined many ladies and gentlemen from the audience, and found them suffer- 
 ing with complicated diseases and debilities, each being explained in detail with- 
 out asking a question. Some he told of cases inherited; others, from overwork, 
 strained from head to foot; others suffering from over-doses of mercury, and had 
 been pronounced rheumatism ; others suffering from diseases of the diaphram and 
 spleen, and had been pronounced lung disease ; others from heart disease, from over- 
 taxation of mental and physical powers, and had been pronounced paralysis. One 
 gentleman was told that ten years ago he was afflicted with inflammation of the 
 bowels, and that he was attended by a good physician or lie could not have lived, 
 but he was all right now; he told the audience that it was fifteen years ago.
