  chink in the metal fence surrounding the old Jackson Sanatorium. No, I was
  not an AWOL inmate sneaking back before curfew. It was 1979, and I had been a
  natural health lecturer for only a couple of years. When I was promised a

  expect. But fortunately Henry, natural hygienist, unofficial caretaker and my
  guide this late autumn afternoon, was an enthusiastic (if not to say rabid)
  scholar of the works of James Caleb Jackson, M.D. (1811-1895). He undertook
  my reeducation immediately. For like most people, I knew nothing of Doctor
  Jackson, though he was actually one of the most influential natural health
  practitioners of the 19th century. <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">Jackson</st1:City></st1:place>
  was a personal friend of both Frederick Douglass and Susan B. Anthony, and he
  was Clara Barton’s personal physician. It was not by mere coincidence that
  the first chapter of the American Red Cross was founded in Dansville. (1) <st1:place

  successful publisher of long-running popular magazines including &quot;True
  Detective,” &quot;Photoplay&quot; and “Physical Culture.” At one time,
  Macfadden outsold Hearst on the newsstand; &quot;True Story&quot; is
  published to this day. Macfadden was also the founder of the notorious
  &quot;New York Evening Graphic,&quot; and yet was a personal friend to George
  Bernard Shaw. The archetypal &quot;health nut,&quot; Macfadden personally led
  a mass health walk every year all the way from <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City

  a public relations genius if there ever was one, decided to try parachute
  jumping while in his 80's. He landed without injury, possibly due in part to
  the fact that he was used to routinely sleeping on the bare floor. (2) The

  to what looked like one of several playground merry-go-rounds, you know, like
  the ones Bill Cosby described from his childhood. But these were
  different.<span style='mso-spacerun:yes'>  </span>Each of the round platforms

  Macfadden, regarded by traditional vegan natural hygienists as a milk-diet
