poison.
CANCERS OFTEN
FOLLOW ULCERS.
Cancers are usually the after result
Of ulcers. Ulcers are due to disturbed
nourishment 10 the stomach or intestinal
wall much the same as cold or fever
sores are due to disturbed nutrition.
Most Ulcers and cancers are Of that por-
ton Of the stomach where it empties
into the first portion Of the intestines
and here is where the first Hcament sup
porting the stomach and intestine is
found. When the wall Of the lower abdO-
men becomes sagging. the stomach and
intestineS naturally must drop in pre-
portion TO the degree Of sagging and this
results in an undue strain on the liga-
ment supporting the first part of the in
testine. This part is called the duodenum.
The strain put upon this Hgament causes
an acute angulation Of the intestine, thus
shutting of the blood supply and inter
fering with its drainage This constitutes
reason number one why 'slinker SLOUGH

ABNORMAL POsTUREs
INDUCE DISEASE.
Usually alteration Of the normal curves
is not the only result, but there are twists
and subdislocaJiOns OF spine joints and
ribs where they joint the spinal column
These abnormal positions If the bony
structure become a very active factor in
depicting the nerve supply TO the stomach
and iutestineS. Hence, we have the spinal
cause Of ulcers and cancers.
'sThe best treatment lies in the field OF
prevention The correct posture should
be assumed carrying the head and spine
erect, and the chest well elevated. Osteo-
pathic adjustments to the subluxations
and twists win materially assist the In
dividual to stand and sit arect and main
tain the proper nerve and blood supply
TO the stomach and intestines. Osteo-
pathic adjustments and correct posture
win permit proper secretions OF the
stomach and intestines so there win be
perfect digestion. OsteOpathic adjust
ments plus correct posture and proper
eating viii insure the individual against
the ravages of cancer.

cases is durable without surgery. It is OF

ing an adjustment Of the spine and other
parts whenever indicated. The body

care and attention that would be given 4

SEVEN SENSES
INSTEAD OF FIVE.
The traditional five senses are rele-
gated to ancient history. Man really has
seven senses, according to DR.. Glenn S.
Moore Of Chicago, who told Of the dis
covery OF two new senses, IN & tech
meal paper which he real yesterday In
the eye, ear, nose and throat section
Of the national osteopathic convention.
DR.. Moore said:
For centuries man has been credited
with only five senses. Only recently
ms SIKH sense come 70 De recognized
as that Of muscle and joint sense by
means OF which the individual is able
TO perform coordinate acts automatically
and unconsciOusly. Recent studies Of the
internal ear have revealed the fact that
the semi-circuIar canals constitute a
seventh sense, which has been termed
the kinetic static sense
Really there are seven special senses:
Sight, hearing. taste smell touch, muscle
sense, kinetic static sense. Perfect
equilibrium is maintained by these spe-
cial senses working in unison A war
time utilization Of varieties Of tests was
adopted by the board Of examiners for
the air-service departments in order to
test the equilibrative powers of prospec-
tive aviators and their adaptabnity for
flying.
The tests consist in stimulating the
semi-circular canals. This IS accom-
pHshed by means Of turning a person in

pose OF by dOuching the ear with water.
either hot or cold. Such stimulation pro-
duces definite phenomena such as the
rhythmic jerking Of the eye and a feel
ing of turning and dizziness known as
vertigo.
Because OF this vertigo a patient viii
fall in a definite direction and viii be
unable with his eyes closed TO find an
object which be has previously touched
with his fingers or fOOt, but 'pastpOints'
to the right, left, above OF below the OBJ
Jet, depending upon the direction of

snd 'pastpOinting' are always present in
normal individuals and follow certain def
mite laws. For example, turning to the

STRANGE RESULTS.
IF the head is in the upright position

douching the right ear with cold water
causes a rotary eye Jerking to the left
and sensation Of falling to the left, al
though actually falling 10 the right and
past pointing to the right. Hot water
causes exactly the opposite reaction.
