“Without professing to understand much of medical
phraseology, we suppose that the terms ‘allopathic prac-
tice’ and ‘legitimate business’ mean the ordinary method
commonly adopted by the great body of learned and emi-
nent physicians, which is taught in their institutions, estab-
lished by their highest authorities, and accepted by the
larger and more respectable portion of the community. By
‘eclectic practice,’ without imputing to it, as the counsel
for the plaintiff seem inclined to, an odor of illegality,
we presume is intended another and different system,
unusual and eccentric, not countenanced by the classes
before referred to, but characterized by them as spurious
and denounced as dangerous. It is sufficient to say that the
two modes of treating human maladies are essentially dis-
tinct, and based upon different views of the nat*re and
causes of diseases, their appropriate remedies, and the
modes of applying them.” Bradbury v. Bardin, 34 Conn.
