Physiology.

The following is taken from
statement over the signature OF Rich
ard G.. Cabot. M. D.. OF Boston. Mass,
recognized by the Medical Fraternity
as one of the greatest diagnosticians
I'm the world: "Out of some four
hundred diseases. seven are durable
by drugs, while five may be prevent
ed by incubation. The limitations OF
the use OF drugs and the limitations
OF the Doctor himself, ought to be a
matter of public knowledge" With
such a frank admission. from a rec
ognized authority in the medical pro-
fession, is 1t any wonder that the pub
lie are rapidly taking up some form
of drugless method in their quest for
health?
The foremost drugless method in
the United states today Is that OF
Chiropractic. Not only are there
moro Chiropractors in business. but
the largest non-medical institution
in the world is a Chiropractic school.
There must be>a reason for the
strength shown by this system. That
treason lies in the simple. logical and
reasonable explanation upon which
the science Is founded. and in the
percentage Of results obtained, which
far surpass those Of any other meth
cd.
There is a vital. God given quality
IN every person which makes him act.
breathe, think and live. It is called
Inmate (meaning inborn) Intelligence.
IT is an intan gible something which
Is carried 10 ali parts Of the body
thru the nerve trunks and their
Branches. AS all the nerve trunks
have their origin in the brain, then it
ls the logical conclusion that the CEN
Ter from which this life is distributed
must be the brain.
It is a well known fact that II all
the nerves leading to the hand were
cut, that hand would be paralyzed
end try as hard as we might, we
could not move 1t. This is also true
of the heart, which Is supplied by
nerves and which is dependent upon
them for is proper function. 1t Is
also true u the stomach. Of the kid
neys, of the, intestines; and in fact Of
every organ In the body.
II II is true that an organ stops
functioning when the nerves supply
Ing It are cut, then 1t is equally true
that they function improperly when
fhe nerves supplying them are
pinched. In brief, the carrying capa-
eity Of these nerves is destroyed If
they are cut. while it Is diminished
X they are pinched.
Examination discloses the fact that
there is one place, and only one,
where the nerve fiber can be pinched.
This 10 in the spine where they leave
' (he spinal cord and make their exits
hru tiny openings between the bony
egments. II one Of these segments
tets out OF position. the size Of the
opening Is decreased and as conse-
uence the nerves are pinched.
II the affected nerve supplies the

The Chiropractor Is trained to To-
eate the nerves which are at fault,

make their exit from the spine, and

Is this Ii accomplished the pressure
