A WONDERFUL MACHINE
Human Body 10 the Most Wonderful
Piece of Mechanism to be Found
on the Earth.

The human body is without doubt
one or the most wonderful and DELI
cate machines made.
In one way it might be compared
TO a watch (although 1t Is so much
more delicate and c~omplicated) il a
spring should break or a wheel get
out OF shape, 1t would be unable TO
run and o would AXE it to a watch
maker for repairs. But after il is
repaired, and if it is full of dirt and
sticky oil, it will still be unable to u
unless it is cleaned.
To adjust the human spine is very
a s and can be done in a few minutes
although the adjustment may have to
be repeated but at least nine out cf
every ten who are sick have their
system filled with toxic or p~oisonons
matter and unless 1t Is removed he
person cannot get well. Or, Nelson is
a Post Graduate Chiropractor from
one of the best spinal adjustors in Ms
UniteR States. He has the latest
method Of adjusting the spine, but he
does not stop at the adjustment bur
uses In connection with ii the Nature
pathtc methods to eliminate the waste
and poisonous matters from the sys-
tenn. Without this the adjustment in
many cases would do very little good.
but combining the two there is no
better method In the world for curing
chronic diseases n they have made
wonderful cures at The Nelson
N~aturopathic Institute In a remarkably
short time by using these two methods
in connection.
