Billy Sunday as
a Model.

Scoffers and skeptics at Billy Sun

fected by the figures of his results.
Even on the basis of the crowds
drawn, it is an amazing spectacle,
without parallel in history. An
attendance of million and a half
in eleven weeks preaching at Boston.
has nothing like it in Christian ira
dition.
The ordinary Christian preacher
has lot to learn from Billy. That
does not mean that he must pound
the table, mount up on the desk,
swing chairs. or sling slang like Mr..
Sunday. Sunday has a certain ma
tural physical grace that makes his
antics natural expression of his
nervous and passionate utterance.
Anyone who tries to initiate him
simply makes himself grotesque.
Wherever Billy goes clergymen
flock to hear him. They do well to
study his methods. They can dis
tinguish many methods used by Billy
that the most dignified preacher can
usefully employ in his pulpit.
For one thing Billy is tremendous
ly lucid His language is clear cut
direct, straight to the point. He
draws his illustrations and ideas
from every day life. from much con.
tact with men and things. Differ
ent types of character, different
courses of conduct, are graphically
described and separated from each
other with absolute clarity. The
nearer leaves one of Bllly's tabernac'
les with certain positive impressions
that stick in his mind.
No man makes a great popular ap
peal unless he does acquire this habit
of clear, lucid, graphic utterance
Many clergymen surround their sub
jects with a hazy fog of speculation
and philosophy. The best intentions
and the most spiritual desires OTTER
fail to "get over" as they say in thu
theatres.

CH|ROPRACTIC
A PHILOSOPHY

Webster says "Chiropractic is
philosophy science and art Of things
natural, and system of adjusting
the articulations of the spine by
hand, for the elimination of the
cause of disease"
Ebert Hubbard says "Chiroprac-
tic is doing more than any other
factor in the world today to make
sorrow and signing fee away. That
is why Chiropractic is going to pros
per-"
A demonstration was held in the
evening before a body Of legislators
and prominent citizens to prove the
exactness of the science of chiro-
practic. Five people were examined
first by DR.. b. r. Johnson, his
analysis listed, then by DR.. G. B.
Johnson of ogden, whose analysis
agreed perfectly with the first, thus
proving conclusively that palpation
of the spine Is exact in locating dis
ease. The people examined were
strangers to both doctors.
Chiropractic Is not theory but
a science which locates the weak
ncsses of the body and removes the
cause of diseas. Chiropractic prov
es the duality of man. Every organ
and tissue OF the body exists inately
lust a real as 1t exists physically.
Innate intelligence is material, a
highly refined material, very little
of which is known to man. This
intelligence circulates thru the body,
the nerves being the cables over
which It Is transmitted, just as cleo
tricity is transmitted over copper
wires. Perfect expression of innate
means perfect health. The inability
to express itself means disease. A
pressure upon nerves interferes with
the transmission of impulses. the
only place in the body where hard
material (bone) comes in direct con-
tact with soft material (nerve) to
cause a pressure is at the spine,
where the nerves emit thru the tiny
windows of the spinal column. When
the spinal segments are in normal
position these openings are OF nor
NAL size. II one or more vertebrae
get out of perfect alignment by Q
wrench, strain, twist or fall, IL oc'
cludes this bony window, thus cut
ting in on the nerve. This pres
sure upon the nerve deadens the life
iourrent from the brain. weakens the
region supplied by that nerve. dis
ease Is the result.

all this comes from eating shrimp
