These men have recently finished

their shipping and market qualities
The vines were purchased in Califor-

which this city has become famous.

grape business here and encourage
others to plant. that in comparative

Il The above cuts represent the plac,
where I found the trouble in two blind
children.
You will notice the trouble was not
at the same place in the spine. The
first a blind boy was cured by forcing
the vertebra at second and third dorsaI
where fibers go 10 the eyes through
the cervical ganglin.
In the second case, a girl. 1 forced
the first and second cervical vertebra
in place. which pressed on the cord and
caused it to draw the eyeban too tight
against the socket, through the optic
nerve.
In each Of these cases it took all the
force I could apply to loosen the verte-
brae pushing toward the normal posi-
ton of these vertebra
If had used less force might have
good, except to make them feel better
for a short time.
That is why an easy treatment never
cures. but makes you feel better for
I confined my treatment TO the place
where 1 found the spine dislocated and
did not treat the rest of the body, as ii
would have drawn the circulation Of
which I was loosening and would never
let it be fed
Never let an osteopath treat you only
where the part or parts are affected.
and then only long enough to loosen it.
This never takes over minute or
two.
If they do, you may know they do not
know where in the spine the trouble
is. and by their massage they will draw
the blood away from the weak nerve,
which they should loosen by a quick.

Some of the Of the Day.

palms, blessed at the altar of the
J church. And in the home of a devout
family you see the long tropical green
growths crossed over the mantel or laid
/ against the window pane.
Palm Sunday is the Sunday before
Easter Sunday, and the bringing of the
1 palms through the streets and into the
house is a particular observance Of it.
What the Palms Mean.
Palm Sunday is the echo Of the palm
/ Sunday, of nearly 1000 years ago, but
! today il has in it a ring of joy, which
It could not have then because of the
sadness which was part of the life OF
Christ.
/ Palm Sunday today means the bring
! ing of palms from all Fthe world to
grace the christian churches. They are
brought from the tropics and from the
HouthlanGs, from the hothouSes and
from the jungles. They are pressed and
brought from the borders of streams,
where they would quickly fade were
they TO be taken in their individual
state, and they are preserved" and
made to do duty again as fresh palms
in countries where the Easter climate Is
too chilly to raise the green palm.
At the church affairs they have the
natural palms, fresh and living, newly
gathered from the soil, and around
them there is the curious fragrance as
of the piney woods.
The palms have a curious spicy taste
like the evergreen and when pressed to
the lips they give forth rich, sweet,
refreshing odor. which in past times was
supposed to heal the sick
In the Scottish hills the palms were
brought to those who lay at deaths
door. for it was thought that the smell
of a bruised palm would prolong the
breath few hours; and in Ireland the
sight of the palms crossed above the
mantel. over the hearth, was a token
that no evil spirit could enter while the
green emblems remained there.
The palms today, like all church
decorations like the evergreen, the Eas
ter lily and the Towering shrubs, are
treated joyously, not somberly, and
to know that they wave over the affairs
is to feel that the spirit of churchly
revelery prevails in the choir and in the
congregation.
Very sweet are the symbolic figures
of the palms. In the paintings beauti-
full boys bear long branches, singing to
the altar; or lovely girls carry them. all
robed in white-the palms triumphant
in their arms.
With Palm Branches
There was once a time when all the
beautiful women of the day were paint
ed with palms in the Ind. Then to
carry a palm meant to bring peace to
the home, and the woman palm bearer
was the one whose spirit was a per-
petual olive branch of harmony and
good will
Then there came a time when the
palm leaves were arranged in classic
form. when they were set around the
brow, when they were placed in the
hand and crossed upon the breast The
palms set off the beauty of the face
and the figure better than any flower |
that grew, and the great painters Of the

ance of the feast was cerried on till some
time in the reign of Edward VI. but
from that time on the custom declined.
The Pax or Peace cake was formerly
distributed on Palm Sunday in many
English churches. the intention being
that those who quarreled should break
the cake together and say, Peace and
good WILL" thus making up their differ

AT Rome the palms used are genuine,
but in this country. as it is not possible
always to procure them. some other
evergreen is very generally used.
