Chiropractic Results

The following letter from Avalon,
Pa, dated Dec. 4, 1917, gives some
idea Of chiropractic results: "My
son Robert, aged IL, was hurt on
the head by a fall in a gymnasium
and complained afterwards of his
eyes hurting him, and we soon be-
gan to notice his right eye turning
outward and little later the school
examiner notified us to have his eye
looked after. We took him to an
optician, who advised us to get the
best specialist in the city, as there
might be an ulcer on the optic nerve
as a result of the fall, which would
probably mean an operation. The
specialist gave him glasses, saying
that was all that could be done then,
but for us to come back in few
weeks. In the meantime we were
visiting in Morris, and hearing Of
DR.. Witwer's success with similar
