MENINGITIS
There are four kinds of Men

CULAR MENINGITIS is ar
acute suppuration of the men.
inges of the brain and splna
cord, in which there is the for
nation of tubercules.
Symptoms are anorexia, maui
sea, vomiting, headache, emacia-
ton, loss of sleep and digestion
imperfect.
EXTERNAL MENINGITIS is
an inflammation, or excessive
heat, affecting the external OF
outer layer of the meninges OF
the spinal cord. Symptoms are
spinal pains which radiate along
the course of the spinal nerves
over the trunk and legs, spasms
of various groups of muscles are
present and in the more severe
cases there is partial paralysis,
the muscles become stiff, legs be-
gin to atrophy and also a high
fever with each case.
ACUTE SPINAL LEPTO-
MENINGITIS is an acute in
hammation, or excessive heat OF
the thin membrane of the spinal
cord. affecting the pia and the
arachnoid membranes. Symp-
toms are radiating pains in the
back and extremities, also ten
deness along the nerve trunks
and stiffness of the spinal and
other muscles, chills and the rig
idity of the spinal muscles also
produce cervical retraction, and
then the muscles finally become
atrophied and may remain spas
tic, the censory function may be
dulled and the patient is left in a
state of paralysis which pursues
chronic course.
Serious MENINGITIS OF
THE BRAIN is an Inflammation
of the membrane surrounding
the brain, accompanied with an
affusion Of serum. Also known
as exudative meningitis. The
symptoms of such a case are Sc:
we're headache, spinal pains
chills; legs, arms and neck be-
come stiff; convulsions, paralysis
in all the muscles of the body
Since all cases Of Meningitis cen
ter around the Brain, Spinal
Cord; Spinal Column and Spinal
Nerves as they do in the above
mentioned cases, is it not your
duty to investigate the Science
of Chiropractic with an open
mind?
Chiropractors have been sue
cessful in cases Of meningitis at
ter all other methods have failed
and the very fact that they gel
results is that they deal with the
cause instead of the effect; they
work at the seat of the trouble
which is the SHINE: there they
find a subluxated vertebra press
ing upon the nerve causing al
this trouble. You say bone
pressing upon nerves does no
cause meningitis. Facts can no
be disputed and results are thu
best proof of the above state
ments. If you have a child sui
fering from this dreaded disease
that has bafled science for age!
we ask you for the sake Of YOU
child and suffering humanity Il
call on your Chiropractor an(
have him explain to you hi
method OF adjusting and femOV
ing the cause of-this disease, ant
what Chiropractic has done fo1
it and what it will do again i
given fair trial. 1t costs yol
absolutely nothing for INFOR
NATION, CONSULTATION
AND SPINAL ANALYSIS. :,
WHAT IS a CHIRGPRACTCR
A Chiropractor is person who aftel
being duly educated in the Science o.
Chiropractic and trained to the proper
application of it's arts, uses his bare
hands in contact with the spinous pro.
cesses of the vertebrae to realign the
subluxated units and release nerve
compression. Such adjustments are
practically painless and leave no i'll eff.
fects with the patient.
