Magnolia Ellis was a magnetic healer born in Hill County, Texas, who settled in Hot Springs, today's Truth or Consequences, in 1937 and built a two-story residence and office that is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. She denied being a faith healer, instead laying hands on patients who claimed to feel electricity when she touched them. Patients picked numbers, and she visited them in six different booths, sometimes seeing 100 patients a day. Magnificent Magnolia helped put Hot Springs on the map.
