VI oil Ill 1IGQ1ul1
Your nerves must be in perfect condition or you
cannotsbe we'll. Nerve pressure is the cause of
- Dnearly al: i'll health, no matter by what name it is
given or in what part of the body it exists, nor what form
it takes on. Furthermore, this cause can be completely
removed by chiroprachc spinal adjustment.
u, For six years, says DR.. J. F.. McComber, Dr. Me-
Cornell, of Chicago, and his colleagues have been exper-
imenting on animals to determine scientifically whether
disease will occur in the various organs and parts of the
bodv after spinal bones have been slightly displaced to
compress the nerves in between them and thus interfere
with the flow of energy from the brain. The result Of the
experiment proved this concusivey. Changes in the
stomach, kidneys, pancreas and practically all the organs
of the body was marked. In two animals a gotre was
produced by pressing the nerves at the spine"
u, The object of chiroprachc adjustments is to bring the
displaced bones OF the spne into right positions, to re-
lease the nerve pressure their devanons cause. Only the
bare hands are used to do the work, and the adjustments
do no hurt in a sense that they are at all injurious.
G, If your spine is in good order your nerves will be in
perfect condition and disease cannot bother you until your
vertebrae becomes displaced to interfere with the flow of
health energy from the brain. Health will not leave so
long as the spine is perfectly shaped, nor fail to return
when its disordered joints are returned to their natural
positions by chiropractc adjustment.
O. A good backbone means good ch@t,a abdomen and limbs and absolute
relief from all forms of disease Keep your backbone in true alignment and
the whole body will go straight.
q, Chiopractos are educated and trained to properly adjust displaced YER
tebrae* and thus provide the necessary physical help which yu cannot give
yourself or find in another way They do not pretend to cure the body of
any of it's disorders but merely to give an adjustment of spinal bones to lift
their prssure of nerves. so that naturec an do the curing with an uninter-
ruptd flow of health energy from the brain.
o. Your willingness to inquire further into the merits of the chmopractc
science nay bring yu the very help you most need and have long desired. l
will be glad to aid you all can through free consultation and analysis of
your spina

Lovely White Skin!
Strain lemon juice we'll before
mixing and massage face,
neck, arms, hands.


BY all means, girls, prepare a lemon
lotion to keep your skin flexible and
young looking. You will soon realize
that true loveliness does not mean the
powdery-look or waXen colorlessness
of some hot-house flower, but is typi-
fed by the velvety softness of YOUR
skin. your peach-like complexion and
rosy-white hands.
At the cost of a small jar of ordinary
cold cream one can prepare a full
quarter pint of the most wonderful
lemon skin softener and complexion
beautifler by squeezing the juice of
two fresh lemons into a bottle con-
tanning three ounces Of orchard white.
Care should be taken to strain the
Juice through a fine cloth so no lemon
pulp gets in, then this lotion will keep
fresh for months. Every woman
knows that lemon Juice is used to
bleach and remove such blemishes as
freckles. sallowness and tan. and is the
ideal skin softener, smoothener and
heautiner.
Just try it! Get three ounces OF
orchard white at any pharmacy and
two lemons from the grocer and make
up a oAarter pint of this sweetly fra
grant lotion ard massage it daily into
the face, neck. arms and hands. II
should naturally help to whiten. soft
en-, freshen and bring out the roses and
hidden beauty Of any skin. 1t is sim
ply marvellous to smoother rough, red
hands.

good startegy to risk war vessels against
land fortifications. Nevertheless, we con-
tinue as during nearly three years to hope
that the Germans will come out"
Admiral De Chair sketched vividly the
long night vigils of the patrol vessels, the
terrible winter storms which sometimes
send vessels to the bottom without leav-
ing a trace, the menace of floating mines,
the hide-and-seek game between sub
marines and their prey. and the ever
present tension and alarm.
One striking sto-" was of a trawler with
but four men aboard. which on sighting
a periscope nearby made full speed to-
ward 1t. The trawler struck the SUBJ
marine squarely amidships. slipped up her
back and came to rest there. The skipper
shouted for a shovel and smashed in all
the delicate apparatus with which the u
boat sees its way. The trawler then
backed off, the submarine rose to the sur
face, the matches opened and the crew of
N came on deck and surrendered. The
four captors had a problem on their
hands until destroyer opportunely ap-
peared.

has made hole in the earth wind and
wear down it's rim.
But on the moon there is neither air
nor water. So meteors fall upon its
surface without burning, without
checking of speed and still in their or
iginal size. Their speed Is constantly
increased by the moons attraction, and
it must exceed thirty miles a second.
Suppose a meteorite such as that at
Bacubirito, Mexico, which weighs more
than fifty tons, crashing into our earth
with a velocity of more than 100000
miles an hour. The shock would be
terrific. the meteorite would penetrate
deep into the ground and the sudden
stop to its movement would raise its
temperature million degrees. The
solid matter of which it is formed
would change instantly to gas, which
would be in fact an explosive infinitely
more powerful than any known to us.
This would tear a crater of large size,
and if there were neither wind nor
water to modify 1t the crater would re-
main indefinitely.
There are some 10000 craters on the
moon, and these are the product of
long ages.
The astronomer Arago reported that
during the totality of the eclipse Of the
sun on May 8, 1715. he observed on the
surface of the moon certain fulmina-
tions or instantaneous vibrations of
luminous rays. These flashes
lasted but an instant and appeared
now in one place. now in another"
La Nature suggests that these might
have been caused by swarm of small
meteors striking the surface of the
moon and causing explosions.

Women Steady Workers

It used to be said that women could
not be depended upon like men to
work steadily. and consequently ought
not to expect so much pay as men en-
ployed at similar work.
While it would be foolish for any
young woman to stay at work when
physically unfit, it is believed that
most women now continue at their
work as constantly as men. Amy
woman who is unable to do so, should

to enable her to keep at work.-Adv.
