can do business in a state or COM
munity, 1t should require that GER
tain thing of every other man, all
should be treated alike, this is just
and right, and any effort to bulldoze
I and over ride the law should be
frowned on.
Chiropractic like everything else
will find It's level. 1t will be much
better to be a little conservative and
not make such broad claims as some
OF them are doing, because 1t is not
an exact science, and has its limita-
tions.
Solicitations of the vertebrae Is
possible, and owing to the intimate
connection of the cerebro, spinal and
sympathetic nervous system, 1t is diff
ficult to say just what trouble a
| subluxation at any one point is GO
ing to cause, it may cause more or
less trouble in any part of the body
Finding a subluxation of one of
the vertebrae does not tell what the
disease Is. Example, the tenth dor
sal is called the kidney place" find
ing subluxation there does not
tell what is wrong with the kidney,
whether some form of Brights dis
ease, some form of diabetes, conges-
ton of the kidney, or whether there
Is anything at all wrong with the
kidney. Subluxation of the fourth
dorsal indicates trouble with the
liver, the fifth, sixth and seventh
dorsal with the stomach, the eighth
with the spleen. the lower dorsal and
upper lumbar with the intertines
and ETC., all up and down the spine.
Now granting this to be true, the
question Is, If there Is any disease
If any Of the organs or parts of the
body is diseased. what is the dis
ease? Being able to make an an
alysis OF the spine and finding sub

surely man should have more pride
in his profession that this would
seem to indicate.
Recently one of these men had a
very large ad in one of the Salt
Lake papers. advertising the abso-
lutte fact that all tonsilar trouble was
caused by subluxation of the eigh- |
tn dorsal vertebrae, and making the |
positive statement that adjusting the !
eighth dorsal would cure any case |
of tonsilitis or reduce all enlarged |
tonsils. ! do not know IL this gentle |
man is an authority on Chiropractic |
nor whether or not he has ever writ |
ten any books on the subject, how |
ever l do know that other authorit-
les say in all diseases of the tonsils, |
to adjust the first. second, and four
tn cervical and also the sixth and
tenth dorsal. Now then, which is
right.
In the hearing before members of |
the legislature held in Salt Lake |
City, one man exhibited little child |
before the committee. claiming the |
child was blind and he restored its |
sight, and yet he could not explain |
assuming the child was blind. how he
had accomplished such wonderful '
transformation, but when pressed for !!
an explanation, lost his temper and |
began calling names. and the ex-
PLANTATION was easy. As is well known |
perfect vision depends on the power |
of accommodation as regulated by |
the proper contraction and dilatation |
of the pupil.
Subluxatlon of the cervical and |
upper dorsal vertebrae, will affect |
the function of the cranial nerves. |
All the cranial nerves are connected |
to the sympathetic nervous system
