CHIROPRACTIC, the new science, is the knowledge of the cause <>l disease and the art of locating and removing same.by hand. The Spinal Oolunni is the only place nerves pass between two t:i< ■ able bony surfaces, therefore n slight displacement of one or more vert, brae causes the delicate nerves to be pinched between hard substances, causing the nerve supply to be restricted, which caused 95 per cent of all suffering known to mankind. It matters not what part of the body or what organ is affected, the cause is in the Spinal Column. CHIROPRACTIC is the only science that removes the cause of disemv and is done without pain, drugs, massage or knife. CHIROPRACTIC ad jiwtments are given with th ehands. The object has been accomplished when the pressure on the nerves has been done away with or the nerves re leased. CHIROPRACTIC adjustments remove the cause. Nature cures.
