Anybody can learn to do a Stunt!
Lots of people can learn to do lots of
Stuntsl But what IS the use? A stunts
a stunt. It's no key to a PERSONS real
capacity. g
You don't have to be a skilled handi-
craftman to roll a cigarette With one
hand and light a match with your
thumb nail. That's a Stunt.
The vaudeville musician may not
know one note from another but he
plays everything from the Swiss bells
to the cello. That's a Stunt.
The Hindu magician eats in the
dairy lunch but he can bring forth a
ten-course dinner from a plug hat.
That's a STUNT.
STUNTS are entertaining, but who
hires a Stunster to do practical work 7
No. You can't estimate inherent
ability in the light of Stunts that folks
do.
Ordinary, everyday, successful per.
Torrance in the ordinary, everyday
walks of life is the only indication of
capacity and ability.
You can lead a physician to the
bedside, the same as tombstone men
are led to new-made graves, he can
do medical Stunts till the COWS come
home-unusual useless things that tax
one s imagination. Those are Stunts.
A surgeon can graft skin from your
arm to your nose, transfer blood from
one body to another, remove a leg from
a male dog onto a female dog, inject
monkeys with cows serum and breed
bugs Of endless character. Those are
Stunts.
But that don't tell anything.
They don't serve to let you know
what YOU should expect when sick and
the bills.
They re Stunts-interesting to listen
to diverting to witness, fill news
paper space with and build regulations
upon but of no earthly use to folks like
you and me, when we get sick.
For it's the commonplace, yours-and-
mine, everyday experiences that CLASH
fly it for us.
Owe have relied on its everyday per
Torrance from thousands of practitioners
upon millions of people, to prove its
and establish its utility.
It's the consistent performer on
whom the world has come to rely.
It's consistent performance we look
to in judging quality, value and in
trinsic merit.
STUNTS aren't the sort Of things
that give a cIew to the innate capacity
and native efficiency of the Chiro-
practor in everyday service.
It's the obvious things we do on
EVERY case-when no one is looking
establish us, not the things wo
do when we re on Ethical parade.
Perhaps that's the reason for the
unprecedented success which Chiro
praetors have met in adjusting verte
bral s%ubluxations in such as you and
me, for this and that.
We have never undertaken to do
Stunts with Chiropractic.
p. s. C.. Chiropraetors were not
trained to waste time to do Stunts.
They have been instructed TO give
SERVICE to the siekIGET THEM
WE'LL, the quicker the sooner.
And that they have served the pur-
pose for which they were intended is
amply affirmed by those who have gone
to them.
When THRU having STUNTS per-
formed on You, call on a ~Chiroprae-
tor and GET WELL.

Ads Win for Dentists
In British Columbia
So That They May Now Use Papers
And Not Be Thought Unethical.

Dentists in British Columbia are per-
mitted under a new act just passed to
advertise without being considered
''unethical."
The passage of the act was due to the
advertising party in the Dental So
ciety. 1t used a tremendous amount of
newspaper display space to drive home
its arguments.
The change in conditions is looked
upon as important in blazing the way
for similar action in the United States.
advertising dentists are confident
American dentists can win along similar
lines if they go to the people with their
arguments.

On the last page Of 'President Wilson'S
War Message" the Editors saw fit to but

compact summary Of the grievances which
necessited the War.
The author Of the compact summary, is
Hon G. E. Foss, "a distinguished member of
Congress- from 1llinois-a Republican.
1t was mistake to mix Foss with Wilson.
because it implies that Wilson needed the
Foss ingredient.
This is the Indictment which Foss hurls at
the Kaiser:
"He has set the torch Of tie incendary to
our factories, our workshops, our ships, and
our Wharves.
Gle has laid the bomb Of the assassin in
our munition plants and the holds of our
ships.
''He has sought to corrupt our manhood

"He has destroyed our commerce.

".
were at war with Germany.
We were not at war, but Congress dutifully
said we were, and we have been terribly busy
ever since to create facts to fit the Congress
sional assertion.
In his Red Cross speech, the President said
that 'oce aCere not IN the qcar because Of ann
particular grievance Of oar oa0n."
That was the Presidents position Nav 49,
1917.
Then came his grafton in which he de-
clared, that our Government was not estab-
lished for our separate and selfish liberty, but
for the liberation of mankind, throughout
the universe.
Next came the Flag Day address which
recited, as causes of war, the books of Bern
hardi and Trietschke, the alarming progress
of German manufactures, the German land
hunger in Asia Minor, and the fearful men
ace of the Berlin-to- Bagdad Railroad.
The Government has issued carefully pre-
pared pamphlet, entitled the Presidents E'IVar
Message and Facts behind it," and after an
examination of the Editors explanatory
notes to the War Message, [ feel constrained
to remark that the facts are very far behind
it.
An extraordinary instance of obtuseness
occurs IN the accusation against Germany,
concerning her proposals to Mexico. Presi-
dent Wilson and his Editor make it the sub
Ject of bitter reprOach to Germany that this
secret overture to Mexico-against whom we
had wantonly sent two armed inyasions-was
made "at time when Germany and america
ocere officially VERY GOOD FRIENDS"
What was the date of the German proposal
to Mexico?
1t was January 10, 1917!
The President and his editor allege that at
this date, "Germany and America were very
good friends"
My Lord Don't the President and his
Editor realize how that admission gives them
away?
1t cuts from under their feet the causes Of
Wor!
Everything which the President now brings
forward, as a justification for conscripting
millions Of our boys to die in Europe, had
occurred prior to Jan. 10, 1917, at which date
"Germany land America were officially very
good fricnds."
See the inconsistency Of it!
We were very good friends to German au-
tocracy, German militarism, German aspira-
tons in commerce, German territorial ex-
pansion, German war-books, and the Berlin
to-Bagdad Railroad.
On Jan. 10, 1917, we were Germany's very
good friend-and she nevertheless did us a
dirty trick, by proposing to Mexico that, IN
case there should be acar, Germany and
Mexico would become allies
# 1t IS the truth, that Germany and
America were very good friends on Jan. 10,
1917, what are we now at war about?
The aborative and conditional offer to Mex
leo, is no cause of war.

without victory. 1t is not pleasant to say this.
Il beg that L may be permitted to put my own in
depreciation upon it and that it may be under
stood that other Interpretation was in my
thought. / am seeking only to face realities and
TO face them without soft Concealments. Victory

be accepted in humiliation, under duress, at an
intoierable sacrifice, and would leave a sting,

present the speakers thought, fully and
fairly.
When you analyze it, you perceive that the
President first inquiries what the nations are
contendlng for; next he expresses his COM
placent and patronizing satisfaction that they
don't mean to "crush" one another; and then,
without soft concealments," the President
asserts that the only peace which will en-
dure, is a peace q0ithout victory; without "a
YSQtor's terms imposed upon the vauqalished;"
without "a sting, a resentment, a bitter
memory" and with common participation
by eqotats, In q benefit to all parties.
Can you reconcile those declarations with
those of the Flag Day speech, in which "man-
kind" are assured that we will pour out mil
lions of lives on foreign fields, to "crush"
German mi1itarism, Hberate the Germans, es-
tablish liberty throughout the world, and put
. stop to the expansion Of German industry,
commerce, and territorial acquisition?
The two speeches are as different as green
gourd and a ripe watermelon: it is difficult
to believe that they both came out Of the same
head, in the same year, on the same subject.
Tf ono ic riUbt tho ctbor ic yuronU
It is impossible for both to be right. Then
qUhich is wrong?
The President had all the facts in hand,
when he made his January speech: he then
pleaded for peace; deprecated terms dictated
by O. v5ctor; declared that peace could not en-
dure if stings and resentments were left, to
rankle in the soul of the vanquished; and said
that the nations, as equals, must come to
terms, on basis of equality and common
benefit.
submit to your good sense this PROPOSE
ton, which is sound in law and sound in
morals:
When President Wilson made deliberate
and formal offer to bring about peace be-
tween the warning nations, on the basis of
equality, without any victory which would
give the victor the power to dictate terms,
and without leaving any bitter memories
which would at some future time kindle anew
the flames of war, he ever7astingzy estopped
himself from saying that ANYTHING, WHICH
GERMANY HAD PREVIOUSLY DONE, a0aS q san
arhich civilization could not pardon.
On the contrary, his Peace Note was tanta-
mount to an open and public admission, that
q0e had no imperative reasons for going into
the Var.
Can any one escape this conclusion?
