IF U r SICK READ
GROWING POPULAR

To account for the. wonderful
spread Of Chripractic practice and
the wide and enduring popular fav-
or Of it, as well as the hourishing
condition of its schools and coll
leges, we can, with pride, point to
the millions of people whose health
has beer benefited by taking the
adjustments. These people are the
real missionaries of the work; get
ting help for themselves, after hav-
ing tried about everything else,
made them into true converts for
the Chiropractic cause.
1t is their pleasure to tell others
of their new found source Of sure
relief from bodily ailments.
DR.. Eli G. Jones, M. d., of Bur-
lington, New Jersey, was several
years ago quoted as saying:
eve find that out of a population
of seventy million people in the
United States, there are seventeen
million six hundred thousand who
employ some form of drugless heal
ing. While we, as physicians, have
loudly protested that certain di-
seases are incurable by medicine,
the drugless healers have cured
them without medicine" -
Every Chiropractor has a list of
fully restored patients TO prove
that the only way to eliminate the
cause of disease is to adjust the
spinal bones that are out of align
ment and pressing against the
nerves coming out through the OPP
enings between them. When this is
done the brain transmits normal
nerve impulses through the fibers so
released, and thus builds to sound
health any part of the body so Shut
off from its full supply of mental
energy.
To correct the cause of disease,
,r any wrong bodily condition, is
he most logical thing to do to get
i'd of the trouble. This the Chiro-
tractor does. 1t is common thing
o hear some person say: II have
AIKEN medicine all my life and have
experienced 10 practical benefit
rom il" On the other hand Chiro-
tractors, who use no medicine, nor
medicine in any form, have
hundreds of patients glad to tell of
he permanent benefits derived
through Chiropractic spinal adjust
nents.
We are pleased to think of you

hing before you have investigated

ave our work more full explained

Very truly,

Ind ustrials
Cotton

The cotton market continued nervous
and irregular yesterday, with the late
tendency of prices easier on reports or
increased spot offerings in the South.
After selling at 1854 on the opening,
January rallied to 1886, but broke TO
26.TS. The general list closed to
81 points lower
The market opened at decline OF
2 to II points, under scattering llqui-
dation, but soon rallied on trade buy
ing of near months and covering. De-
cember sold 6 points and January ;
points above Fridays closing figures,
but offerings increased on scale up,
and later months no more than recov-
cred the opening losses. Buyers of
near positions seemed TO be selling
these later deliveries in some cases,
and there was also hedge selling in
March and May by spot people
with Southwestern connections. This
checked the advance and the market
was rather weak and unsettled later
under selling, which included Western
and Wall Street liquidation. Closing
prices were a shade up from the lowest
on covering.
The difficulty Of the export situation
was emphasized by reports that the
record breaking rate of 80 a hundred
had been paid for ocean freight room
cut Of New York for Liverpool. The
same price YVES said 70 be bid for add
tional room, and owing to the inability
of exporters TO secure room, some cot
ton intended for export was said to be
Offering to New England mills. Before
the war the ocean freight rate on cot
tor from New York to Liverpool ranged
between % and 40 cents a pound. The
bullish feature in the weekend statis-
tics was the comparatively small IN
crease in the worlds visible supply of
American cotton for the week, but this
was said 10 be largely because Of the
smaller into sight movement, which,
in turn, was supposed 70 -eHec. the
export situation and delayed distribu-
tion. Sales OF print cloths at Fall
River for the week exceeded the pro-
duction, which is being curtailed by
scarcity of labor. On December a
further advance Of 10 per cent will
take effect in the wages of $4,000 Fall
River mill operatives, maklg an ad-
vance OF no less than 50.7 per cent
since the first of January, 1916. There
were several reports that the South
was claiming that spots were offered
more freely, but no mention was made
operations Of trade interests, business
in futures was considered largely in the
way Of evening-up accounts pending
European Developments of a more thor
6ugh test Of spot market stability.

Children's Characters
Formed in Early Years

We all know the quotation, "Give ME
the first seven years of the child's life
and you may have the rest" The author
of this statement knew that he could
in the first seven years make an i'm
preston which all subsequent infu-
ences would be unable TO eradicate
Some scientists are now asserting that
the first three years of q child's life
are the most important; that during
this time impressions are received and
stored in the sub-conscious mind which
later determine the trend Of character.
II we would stop to consider how much
n child learns during the first six years
OF its life, We would find that il
amounts TO more than is acquired by n
student during a four years college
course.
Froebel saw that, even though the
child's school life begins at six, he is
really learning during all the previous
years in n more or less haphazard
manner, depending on what his par
ticular surroundings might be. There
fore, Froebel devoted his time to the
study Of the little child and the in
stinctivc methods of training used by
the mother.
Learned from Mothers
In this connection Elizabeth Harri-
son says: "Froebel learned from the
mother everything which he afterward
embodied in his teachings, but his
philosophical insight showed him the
reason Tor all the mothers instructive
play. and he in turn discloses the rca-
son to her. He offers TO each mother
the collective wisdom OF many. His
penetration into child nature and its
needs enabled him TO select what was
