Dr. J. R. Brinkley, head of the Brinkley-Jones Hospital and Training
School for Nurses at Milford, Kansas, has now furnished to the
scientific world what are termed "ample proof cases" that by
implantation of the fresh interstitial glands of the goat sterile people
may bear children of either sex desired. Already the town is filling up
with childless people waiting to be operated upon. Incidentally, cases
of insanity are cured within thirty-six hours after a simple operation.
Other diseases also disappear. Milford is a small town 150 miles west of
Kansas City. Here Dr. Brinkley has performed more than 100 major
operations, and more than 300 minor operations, each one a success;
cured more than 1,000 cases of Influenza, without losing a case; and
cured one "hopeless" case of sleeping-sickness.
The practice of Dr. Brinkley accords with the investigations of glands
by Professor Arthur Keith, president of the Anthropological Section of
the British Association for the Advancement of Science. Professor Keith
states: "The interstitial gland has as much to do with the growth, in
certain particulars, as the pituitary gland has in general bodily
growth. All of the changes we see in children after they begin to grow,
which bring to prominence racial characteristics, depend upon the action
of the interstitial gland. If the gland is removed, or remains in
abeyance, the maturing of the body is prolonged or altered. Sex
differences, the more robust manifestations of males, are more emphatic
in the white than in either the black or yellow race. This is shown in
the beardless face and almost hairless body of Mongols and Negroes, and
especially in Nilotic tribes of Negroes with long, stork-like legs,
which is a manifestation of abeyance of the interstitial gland. As she
grows aged, and her sexual condition closes, woman assumes the coarser
and more masculine appearance, due to the loss of functioning of this
gland. It is the prime factor in differentiating the races of mankind."
Kingsley affirms, in "Comparative Morphology of Vertebrates" that
"interstitial cells carries secretions in man which pass into the blood.
They apparently cause secondary male characters such as, among other
things, hair on the face and change of voice at the close of boyhood.
They govern most female characteristics."
We are on the eve of a tremendous revolution, which must cause a drastic
revision of all works on zoology, anatomy, genetics, physiology, and
evolution in general. The enormous investigations of glands and their
secretions have sprung up and focused since the middle of the World War
period. These investigations are rapidly resulting in a new surgery and
a new practice of medicine.
