CHIROPRACTIC is a new science
of ra,djustinr ^he cause of disease with-
out drugs or knife.,, based on a thor-
ouh knov'e le of the nervous sys-
tem. Tlit nerves which convey en-
ergy from 'the brain to the various
tunctioas Of the body, emerge from
small openings between the bony seg.
merits• of the spinal column. A slight
varia`ion of these bones will cause
an impinge.meat on nerves and thus
restrict the r,ow of energy, the re-
sult or which is disease The Chiro-
practic methoi is to adjust the abreer-
meaty remove the impingement and
permit the nerves to regain normal
size and duty, thereby removing the
disease .Because this is new, don'
say 'it's. impossible." Do not con-,
demo. until you investigate. Dr.
