Adjustments Restore Health Quickly
 and Permanently.

Nature is the chiropractor's only aid. Adjustments release imDinged, nerves, opening the way for nature to dispatch energy over the nerve circuit to keep the body we'll. Nearly all bodily af1llctlOn is due to nerve com presslOn at the spinal column. as such pressure disturbs normal nerve func- t-onating, giving rise to inflammation in and unnatural action of parts the nerves supply. Pain and distress are two manifestations of such abnormal conditions. III health will continue in varying degree until the nerve pres sure is adjusted away. ChirOpractic ad- justin ents correct abnOrmalities with out the use of drugs or instruments. Nature follows such adjustments with a cure. Drugs only check disease.
 Behind all effect there is cause The obviously sensible thing to do would be to correct the cause. Chiropractic is the science of cause. The chiro- practOr most certainly locates the and eliminates it. There can be but one result of such adjustment; health will follow as naturally as water will flow when the obstacle that holds 1t back is removed. G. w. Van Alstyne. D.

DICK IS GLAD HE AND MARGlE VIII
Dick came last night and sat at my
bedside long time.
Little book l have come to the con-
clusiOn that the most interesting
thing about a woman to a man is
good health. All the while was i'll
Dick looked out for my physical COM
fort but l had a feeling that the sight
of me was somewhat of a blow to
him. do not mean he was brutally
selfish in the matter but it hurt him
to see me suffer.
You know, little book, have often
told you Dick is "a good forgotten"
He put our tragedy out of his mind
when he could, but it came back to
him with renewed fervor and it hurt
when he saw me. Now that he sees
me getting well he seems to grow
younger and happier, although at
times a shade-I do not know
whether it is anxiety or boredom
passes over his features.
Last night Dick was happy over
my recovery. 1, too, was buoyed up
with the feeling that in short time
l would be like other women.
''Margie," he said, you are the
most wonderful woman 1 have
known"
Gracious Dick, that is popularity
supposed to be stupendOus compi-
ment but I confess l would like an
explanation.
Dick smiled. "You are wonderful,
my dear, because in many ways you
understand men and understanding
them you. are SOL shall not say for
giving, but tolerant. You have SEEM
ed to know all through your illness
that a woman who is sick means
heartbreak and pity for a man.
ct has been a rather hard time for
you, dearest, hasn't it, /" he continued
slowly.

mot that you could help it, dear.
You gave all woman could give; but
sometimes, Margie, I think the rid
dies of existence are too big for any
one but the superman."
"Oh, Dick, Dick" l cried. please,
don't let me think all your hopes are
shattered. Don't make me feel some
other woman could have helped you
realize them. Don't let me believe
you and have steadily grown apart"
Dick looked at me surprised. why,
dear, l was just trying to tell you we
were again at the glorious beginning
and we're going to live all over
again.
Oh, little book, 1 don't want it all
over again. l don't want the terrible
years, and yet-and yet, thank Fate
and circumstance there have been
some beautiful years. Yes, little

DOwell Hall--Splendid Effort
of Students.
DECISION DIFFICULT FOR JUDGES.
Cadet N. Dodge Woodward Winner Of
Prize in Junior 0ratorical Con-
test the Best Held at the
CoIIaoe

Last night the Junior Oratorical con-
test at st. Johns College was the best
effort ever made at oratory by the old
historic college on the hill.
The discussion was a most difficult
task for the judges. who were the Hon.
James r. Brashears, Judge of the Cir
cult Court for Anne Arundel, Howard
and Carroll counties; James M. Mum
roe LII. D. and the Rev. George Scott
Bell, ID. d.. pastor of the First Pres
byterian Church, this city.
The decision was in favor of Cadet
n. Dodge Woodward, of Annapolis, son
of Mr.. and Mrs. William n. Woodward
of Murray Hill, whose subject was
Supposed Speech of John Adams.
The judges found difficulty in render
ing this decision, as Cadet John c. Fell
was close second, with fine elocution
and real JUNCTION in delivery.
Cadet Fell's selection was Nations
and Humanity" by George w Curtis.
The oratory of Mr. Woodward's selec-
tion won out and he was awarded the
best decision and first prize although
the judges highly complimented Cade.
John c. Fell. 1t is the general opinion
of the judges that the five speakers
were the best all-round orators that st.
Johns has ever brought forward il
any oratorical contest
Mcdowell Hall was fairly well filled
with a representative audience. the
rain probably having kept many from
attending the exercises who otherwise
would have gone. The program open
ed with music by an orchestra of the
College band and Cadet John w. No
Bile, of Preston, Md. was the first
orator. He declaimed THE Star-Span-
glcd Banner" by Henry Waterson. He
was followed by Cadet N Dodge Wood
ward of Annapolis, with THE Sup
posed Speech of John Adams" Mr..
Woodward won the prize.
Cdaet ]. Turnbull Spicknall, of Balti-
more, declaimed "The Plea of the
Drunkard of zapata City" by Winston
Churchill. The second part of the pro-
gram was opened with music by the
College orchestra, followed with dec
lamation by Cadet John c. Fell, son of
President Fell, of ST. Johns College,
and Mrs. Fell, who declaimed Nations
and Humanity" by George w. Curtis.
Second honors were awarded Cadet
Fell for his excellent elocution and
delivery
Cadet Henry L. ID. Stanford. of Prin
cess Anne declaimed Happiness and
Liberty" by Robert Ingersoll. After
music scene from THE Rivals" by
Sheridan, Kings Mead Fields, was pre-
sented by Cadet j. T. Spicknall, as
Bob Acres; j. Wilson knight. as Sir
Lucius O'Trigger, which presentation
was well received.
The program for the evening closed
with the announcement of the judges
who complimented all of the contest
ants very highly
