Recent discoveries have demonstrated that
all the organs of the body are under the con-
troll or the nerve CenterS located in or near
the base OF the brain, and that when these are
derdnged the organs which they supply with
nerve fluid are also deranged. When il is re-
cord Will cause paralysis OF the BODY below
the injured point, because the nerve force Is
prevented by the injury from reaching the
paralyzed portion, it will be understood how
the arrangement of the nerve Centers will
cause the deranEe ment of the various organs
which they supply with nerve force.
Two-thirdS OF chronic diseases are due to
the imperfect action of the nerve centers at
the base of the brain, not from derange-
ment primarily originating in the organ it.
self The great mistake OF physicians in
treating these diseases Is that they treat the
organ rather than the nerve centerS which
are the cause of the trouble

to go and stay where she got her liquor.
Then II was that she threatened to get even
with him. Later q warrant was issued, and
two other colored girls appeared in court
as witnesses. Their evidence was that they
got thirteen drinks from q bottle which
