ELEVEN LOGICAL REASONS
Why the Afflicted Should Take Chiro
nractic Adjustments.

practic Adjustments.
|. Because Chiropractic never fails
In discovering the exact nature Of
your disease
2. Because the adjustments remove
the cause Of disease, but do not treat
symptoms which mean only tempo
rary relief
g. Because Chiropractic accom-
plishes more than all other methods
and leavs no III after effects.
4. Becaues the foremost physicians
are recognizing the value OF Chiro'
practic aud hundreds of them are
practicng it in place Of medicine.
). There are no examinations made
or treatment given to which the most
refined person could object.
s. Because the treatments are not
disagreeablc or painful but are fol
lowed by wonderful sense of relief
Z. Because Chiropractc has had, by
far. the most rapid growth of any
science of healing AT present there
are nearly 5000 practicing in the
United States alone.
g. Because pressure on nerve at
the opening where It leaves the spine
will cause disease In that organ OF
tissue at which the nerve ends. Proper
adjustments will relieve this pressur'
and restore the parts to norma
health.
10. Chiropractic has restored t'
health many cases similar to YOU
own pronounced incurable by the bes
physicians. therefore you have no rea
son to be discouraged.
II. Because what this science ha
done and is doing for others, 1t vii
do for you

Home Defense Guard Killed in
Washington by Negro in
Speeding Automobile - An
: other Fatally Wounded.
SOLDIERS CALLED OUT
TO QUELL OUTBREAKS
Clashes Continuing Despite
Arrival of Troops From
Camp Meade and Patrolling
of Capital byPo|ice Forces.

Washington, July 22.-Despite all
precautions taken by civil and mill
tary authorities, rioting between
whites and negroes broke out again
Tuesday night in Washington and a
report reached the police at 10
o'clock that a white man, believed
to be home defense guard, had
been shot and killed in the north
west section.
Soon after the killing of the home
defense guard, the police received
a report that another guard also
had been shot by negro. He was
reported as fatally wounded. A de-
tachment of cavalry and a squad OF
nnafines was rushed to the scene OF
the shooting, which was at Eighth
and M streets, in the heart of
negro district
Three Riot Calls.
Shortly after 1890 o'clock three
riot calls were sent in simultane--
ouSly from a district in the negro
section of the northwest covering
an area of about three squares. A
Gordon of cavalry, marines and IN
fantry,. were thrown about one
block, in which cons iderable fring
had been going on
Tie defense guard killed later was
identified as Isaac Halbfinger. He
was on duty at Ninth and M streets
| northwest and was killed by negro
| in a speeding automobile. Crowds
of whites Immediately gathered in
the vicinity and several shots were
reported to have been exchanged
with blacks.
Secretary Baker went 10 the
municipal building early in the even
ing and held brief conferepce with
district authorities, presumably rela-
tive to the placing of troops brought
INTO the city.
Troops From Camp Meade.
The troops from Camp Mead ar
rived about 8 o'clock and were sta
toned in various parts of the city.
The troops, all of them belonging
to the regular army, comprised
battalion of infantry, a battery of
machine guns, and four or five truck
loads of ammunition.
With the exception of its lower por-
tion,, Pennsylvania avenue between
the White House and the capitol
practically was clear of crowds as
darkness fell. In the portion about
Seventh and Ninth streets, opposite
one of the negro districts of the
southwest section, there were
crowds of white civilians, but ma
rines stationed few yards apart
kept them moving.
The police reported number OF
posters signed W negro ministers
urging members of their race to
stay within their homes and to pre-
serve order, had appeared about the
city.
The sheriff of Prince Georges
county, Maryland, adjoining the dis
trfct of Columbia, reported that a
large crowd of negroes had gathered
across the district line and were
moving toward Washington. The
district authorities dispatched troops
and motorcycle police to the district
line.
The casualty list to date early
Tuesday was placed at S dead, II dy-
ing and scores injured.
