many mines wate. has to be pumped
all the time whether coal is shipped
or not. Slate caves in: sulphurous
water destroys tools and tracks. En-
plosions and fires are a constant men,
ace. AS mining advances there is a
growing depletion Of resources and
rapid depreciation Of equipment
In view Of these facts It is not
surprising to learn that in 1915 the
average return upon investment in

less than l per cent, while in 1873
1914, coal companies representing a

HUMORESQUE at the Palace Theatre
December 81

Nothing we can tell you in cold
print about "Humoresque' will do the
picture justice. It is one of those
productions that you have to see in
order to appreciate. Once you have
seen it, you'u agree with us that it's
one of the really big pictures of the
season a great. heart appealing
drama of human lives that merits ey-
cry bit of exploitation and show
manship that you can give it.
Fannie Hurst wrote the story from
which "HumOresque" was adapted.
She is the highest paid short story
writer in America. Deservedly. No
other author can approach the skill
and sympathy with which she por-
trays the joys and tears and adven-
ture of ordinary life. She surrounds
it with a romance and intense inter
est that no out-and-out adventure tale
can ever approach.
'Humoresque" appeared serially in
the Cosmopolitan Magazine. 1t has
been published in book form and sold
like wildfire. 1t has run in all the
Hearts newspapers throughout the
country. illustrated with stills from
the picture. Over 5000, 600 people
have read the story and are eager to
see the photoplay. The exhibitor of
"Humoresque" has ready-made au-
dience.
Moreover. he can promise with alb
sOlute truth that this remarkable
story has been given a more-than-re-
markable production on the screen.
Alma Rubens. a brunette beauty of
rare charm and ability, is the fea-
tured player. As a money-maker, 'Hu-
moresque" is in class by itself.

THE IDAHO REPUBLICAN

full comparison would show that the
limb that was shorter twenty min
ties ago was a trifie the longer now
and the calf tnat was shrunken at
first examination would be equal in
size to the other and they found it
to be so. The weakness in the mus
cles of her neck was remedied by the
same adjustment, but he said the adj
justment would not stay remedied,
except by repetition of the adjust
nent two or three times week and
the application OF appliances to help
nature hold them in place. In this
case there was slight curve at the
base of the spine where it rests upon
the keystone that joins the hips to-
gether.
One hip was slightly lower than
the other and he had her sit down
with magazine under the hip that
vas highest. Shifting it to the other
side felt uncomfortable, but the use
of it on the high side threw the spine
into a natural position and took out
the curve that had been giving the
trouble.
The Natural Spine
The lecturer explained that the
spinal column is series of archs and
when an adult stands in natural
position the curve of the spine
shows the arches most. They do
not show SO much in younger per-
son and they do not show much when
a person it seated. The young per-
son who is seated most of his life
while he is growing does not develop
the natural curves in the spine, but
has spinal column more nearly
straight. 1t is especially straight in
the lower part of the back. This Is
not necessarily deformity, but 1t
will be. disadvantage except to a
,erson while seated. The lateral or
side arches in the back are unnatural
and are spoken of as curvature of
the spine, curving to one side or
both.
II there is a curve near the base
of the spine-say a curve to the
right, then the natural position of
the spine in seeking to keep its bal
ICE, curves an equal amount to the
left and higher, up, between the
shoulders, there will be smaller
curve to the right and still higher a
slight curve to the left. All these
side curves or arches weaken the
spine and give rise to irritation of
the nerves, leaving the spine at those
laces weak, and trouble arises in
the muscles or organs that are irri-
tated or inflamed, or poorly nour-
ished as result.
Removing the Cause
Osteopathic treatment settles
around the adjustment of the verte-
bra to remove these natural condi-
lions and thereby removes the irri-
tation of the nerves. He likened the
spine to the arches of a bridge and
each arch in the spine to complete
arch in a bridge. So long as the
arch has a perfect alignment and is

be cured by osteopathy, but said that
many OF the things that had been
treated by other means can be
treated more successfully by this
MEANS He said it is seldom neces-
AIRY to resort to surgery and that
many of the ailments that have been
cured by means of surgery and at the
expense of much time and care and
;uffering can be cured with little or
o lain by osteopathy.
The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1920-01-30

He thought that every kind of
treatment has its place in relieving
suffering humanity. The surgeon,
the osteopath and all the others all
have work to do and they should
seek to bring to the aid of their pa
tients the practical kind Of treatment
that will be most effective and best
for the patient.

free from side curves or twists II has
great strength, but as soon as there
is a slight twist in 1t is loses the
trength and will curve easily.
Friendly to Surgeons
A large number of cases and
demonstrations were brought before
he clinic and remedies were applied
n the theory set forth. The lecturer
did not claim that everything could

High Heels Did Damage

The lecturer said the trouble was
not primarily with the shoes and
yet it was. When she raised her
self by the very high heeled shoes IL
threw her body out Of balance, threw
the spinal column into a strained
position, cut off the nerve force from
certain nerves governing the circula-
ton in the muscles of the great toe
and the calf of the leg, and the
shrinkage Of those muscles had been
Gripping her toe. 1t was not the
shortness Of the shoe that turned
her great toe towards the center of
the foot. 1t was the fact that the
nerve governing the circulation on
the outside of the toe were nearly
paralyzed, while the nerves govern
ing the circulation of the muscles on
the inner side of the toe were in
normal condition. Therefore the
one set of muscles became weak
while the other set were strong and
the toe was gradually drawn side
wise to its present condition.
This was an indirect result of the
high heels, but not in the way that
the woman had supposed. The lect-
urer drew chart on the black board,
showing where there would be
tender spots on the woman's back
and then had different ones approach
and press at the points indicated and
in each case his predictions was cor
rect. She finched or cried out every
time one of those spots was touched. |
The lecturer adjusted the vertebra at |
the certain places which relieved the
pinching or irritation on the nerves
and in about fifteen minutes had the
folks again press on the spots that |
had been SO tender and 1t was found |
the tenderness had subsidized.
