shells and in addition to the purse
and prize offered each hunter will be
given a loaded shell for each crow
head he presents to his precinct cap
tain.

GOOD HEALTH
CHATS
 ON CHIRoPRACTIC

Only last week the papers car ried the story of an English sur geon who had achieved great reputation for knowledge and skill in his profession and had amassed great wealth, but who was giving 1t all up and turning his back for customs-and this brings up right up to our every Sunday subject of WHAT CONSTITUTES WHAT WE CALL GOOD HEALTH!" This doctor, in making his fare well statement to the press. said that in a state of nature man had no need for a physician. and little In making such remarks he made it plain that he was more than . mere novice or a visionary dreamer. Tor he had once before. he stated. lived for two years practically naked and without any of the modern implements, uten- sils and remedies, and had re- turned to his office in London with tanned face and healthy body.
 What a pity that we could not all emulatc-t this example and re- turn today to the normal and nat ural in food, clothing. sleep, drink and rest. Almost overnight we could see the difference, and In a few generations a race of super men from a race of house-broken weddings. But many of us, must continue to live much as we do and follow the same or similar em- ployment year after year and make the best of the conditions and environments in which we find ourselves. What shall be said then--is ours hopeless condi- tion? By no meansi There is so much that we can do to break down the abnormal tissue, restore right right cher, chemical cal, con co5ditions ,;Sr and pulsate and vibrate with ener- gies which we have, perhaps, never known before.
 eat well or rightly meet the ideals you have for your health-there is something WRONG-and that something can usually be made right.
