ChirOpractic
(ki-ro-prak-tik)

Comparatively a new science by
which the cause of disease is deter
mined and the art of removing the
same by the hands without medicine
or surgery. The spinal column
is the main shaft or support of the
human body, and is composed of 20
articular joints or movable bones
(Vertebrae) through which the spi-
nal cord passes, sending out from
between each of these Vertebrae
nerve filaments to the different or
gans, muscle and tissue of the body.
How vital these nerves to our being:
Destroying those of the finger, arm
or leg, or any other member of our
body, and that member is also des-
troyed; or impinge or otherwise in
jure a nerve of any portion of the
body, and trouble begins. Think
how often accidents happen, even
from the moment of birth to that
of old age, such as falls, sprains,
poisons, bad colds, etc., that so Of
ten move Vertebrae out of place,
thus impingeing or otherwise inter
fering with the nerves passing
from between them, which may
cause the Asthma, Infant Paralysis,
Heart, Kidney, Stomach and Liver
and all other troubles, owing to
what organ, tissue or member that
nerve supplies. There is no disease
but that will yield more readily to
this method of cure than to the So
called best medicine in this great
world of ours. Come in and let us
demonstrate, If you are in any way
afflicted, and especially IL you have
failed to procure relief elsewhere.
Consultation will cost you nothing.
Chiropractic never Injuries any one,
never fails to benefit, and seldom
fails to cure even the most stubborn
cases.

BABY's HAIR ALL CAME OUT

When my first baby was six
with little bumps. They would dry
up and leave a scale. Then 1t would
break out again and 1t spread all over
his head. AL the hair came out and
his head was scaly all over. Then his
face broke out all over In red bumps
and it kept spreading until 1t was on
his hands and arms. I bought several
boxes Of ointment, gave him blood
medicine, and had two doctors to treat
him, but he got worse all the time. He
had 1t about six months when q friend
told me about Cuticura. I sent and
got q bottle Of Cuticura Resolvent, a
cake Of Cuticura Soap and a box of
Cuticura Ointment In three days
after using them he began to improve.
He began to take long maps and to
stop scratching his head. After taking
two bottles Of Resolvent, two boxes of
Ointment and three cakes Of Soap he
was sound and well. and never had
any breaking out Of any kin1 lis
hair came out in p1tIo curls all over
his head. I don't think anything else
would have cured him except Cuticura.
II have bought Cuticura Ointment
and Soap several times since to use
for cuts and sores and have never
known them to fail to cure what l put
them On. I think Cuticura is a great
remedy and would advise any one to
use it. Cuticura Soap Is the best that
I have ever used for toilet purposes"

REALLY OPENED THEIR EYES
Pensioners Remark, However, Left
Young Minister Somewhat In
the Dark.

Rev. Henry R. Rose in the Newark
Star tells the story of a young min
lister who had recently taken charge
of a small parish in Vermont. He
aspired to greater things and a large
field. and In the hope that his reputa-
ton would travel beyond the limits of
the village to which he had been sent
he threw into his sermons all the
force and eloquence at his command.
He was, however, totally unprepared
for what was intended for a compli-
ment, but which was put to him In
such a way that it left him in doubt
as to the real impression he had made.
One Sunday morning, after ar espe7
cially brilliant effort, he was greeted
by an old lady, who was n Of the
most faithful attendants at all eerv-
Ices. Approaching the young minister,
she said: "Ah, sir, we do enjoy your
ermons SO much, they are SO in
structive. Do you believe 1t, we never
knew what sin was until you came to
the parish"

Ynunn Ane pensions.

Young age pensions! Why not? IT.
ties, honors, riches, pensions and most
other good things are, as a rule, post
poned to a period of life when the ca
pacity for enjoying them has been
blunted. Australia was one Of the
first countries to adopt old-age PEN
sions, and now a Labor member of the
commonwealth parliament proposes a
complementary scheme of young age
pensions. He would start by pension
ing the fourth child at birth. The fact
that three had previously been born
showed that the parents were doing
their duty and deserving well Of the
state. The young age pension would
reward industry and encourage the
birth rate."-London Chronicle.
