CHIROPRACTIC What is CHIROPRACTIC? CHIROPRACTIC, the new science, is the knowledge of the cause ol disease and the art of locating and re moving same by hand. The Spinal Column is the only place nerves pass between two movable bony surfaces, therefore a slight displacement of one or more vertebrae 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 disease and is done without pain, drugs, massage or knife. CHIROPRACTIC ad justments are given with th ehands. The object has been accomplished when the pressure on the nerves '.as been done away with or the nerves re leased. CHIROPRACTIC adjustments remove the cause. Nature cures.

SAMUEL M. RALSTON. Mr. John B. Stoll, the well known I < editor of the South Bend Times, who j lls recognized as the dean of Indiana < | journalism, in the issue of his paper J of Dec. 14 expresses the following ‘ most favorably and very complimen- < tarv opinion regarding the candidacy I of the Hon. Samuel M. Ralston of Leb- i anon for the nomination for governor 1 •f Indiana. The office of governor of a state Is j one of vast importance, high respon- < sibfllty and great power. As head of < the state government many duties de- I volve upon him, directly and indirect 1 ly. Our numerous state institutions ( in their management become largely r imbued with the spirit permeating the < executive department. Every district, i every county, is more or less affected I by the manner in which the governor 1 conducts his administration. Judicial, i administrative, executive and logis- f lative officers confer with him freely c and properly, largely with a view to , i bringing about effective harmonious t action in the administering of the as ! i fairs of the state. As the population of the commonwealth increases, the responsibility of : I the chief executive increases corre- I j spondingly. Hence it devolves upon i parties and Individuals to see to it < that especial attention be given to, I the selection of candidates for governor who fully measure up to the i requirements of that high office Ind who, in the event of proving the-choice I of a majority of the electorate, would < happily conform to the measurement of the exacting- duties of the chief magistracy of this commonw'ealth. Indiana has had some exceedingly ; able and distinguished men occupying i its gubernatorial chair There have been in the history of the state, 1 times when special qualities were de- i manded for emergencies. That the nece-w for such action was recog- : nized ard met by conventions and emphasized at the polls speaks well for the intelligence and discriminate . ing judgment of the electorate. It J recal's nn aptitude for affirmative ac ■ lion that augurs well for the safeguard'!' of the public interest and . the ad ' ncemewt of the general wel- ; fare. • « a period of over forty | years. :'. 'ditor of this paper has had ■ part in '.:i) selection of a number of I highmlnded gentlemen into whose i hands the Democracy of Indiana . placed its banners from time to time, j Some of these •klrmishes were suffi- ! clently animated to bring into battle array the fiery champions of rival contestants. Strong feeling was aroused but usually good nature in i time asserted itself and subdued the , animosities engendered by the ve- . hemence of those who went beyond , the bounds of reason in championing • the cause of particular favorites. Believing that the consideration of the claims and merits of aspirants to I public position ought to be free from all bla« and prejudice, it is gratifying to note the fact that every attempt at injecting vindictiveness and mal-1 lc« Into the campaign for the Demo- | 1 cratlc nomination for governor of Tn- I diana has thus far met with stern I disfavor. Tills manifestation of popu- ! lar aversion to a campaign of vituperation speaks well for the sober- ' mindness of the tribunal. It denotes the presence of a sense of proi prlety that Is gratifying to every lover . us decency and fairness in politics. Happily It has become generally understood that mud-slinging has ceased I to be considered a warrantable sea--1 ture of nny sort of campaign. i The time in rapidly approaching when the Democracy in Indiana will i be called upon to select, its standardbearer for the campaign of 1912. A careful, painstaking and wholly unbiased survey of the field has led to the conclusion that the best Interests of both state and party demand the ■omination of Samuel M. Ralston for governor. Without in the slightest degree disparaging the claims and merits of other gentlemen named in connection with this nomination there Is ample warrant for the broad declaration that there Is not now visible to the naked eye In any part of the commonwealth an Individual within the ranks of any of the various political organizations that is better ntted or adapted to meeting the requlre■MUts of this office than is this sturdy

JOHN B. STOLL. y son of Lebanon. Samuel M. Ralston p Versed in law, there would be no risk v of incurring costly blunders in the performance of official duty. Heartily In touch with the alms and purposes of those vigorously contending for 1 civic rightousness, there w’ould be no denial of active co-operation from the executive department A firm believer in and an earnest champion of j justice, no reputable, law-abiding man , or woman would need to fear Indiffer ence or unwillingness when equity beckons for intervention. A painstak- . Ing student of government and governmental function, no fanciful notions would obscure the path of public duty. An upright Christian gentleman. without a vestige of cant or hypocrisy in his make-up every one having occasion to come in contact with the governor of the state could fee! assured of fair play and a square deal. The son of parents who knew not what was affluence but reveled in the glorious sunshine of uprightness, industry and frugality, he in early years became imbued with the lofty spirit that has injected vim and vigor into the best types of American manhood. Struggling with adversity and strengthened by overcoming countless ‘ obstacles, Samuel M. Ralston worked | his way splendidly onward and upward. In eminent degree he enjoys the \ respect, esteem and confidence of all who have been afforded opportunity to observe him as he for years appeared in the daily walks of life. From the standpoint of good citi- 1 zenship, from considerations of wise political action, w ith a due regard for popular sentiment, The Times earnestly commends to the Democracy of Indian# the selection for its standardbearer in 1912 of Samuel M. Ralston, feeling assured that in so doing the best and highest interests of state and party would be subserved. .tv placing him In the gubernatorial chair, pleasing recollection would be arouse i , of the best features that characterize 1 * the administration es honored and distinguished pred'censors. If there be found, here or there, some one who feels tempte 1 to orfe* as an objection to Mr. Rals’on’s nomination for governor the contention that he "nas had his day in court” when drafted by h's party to mak? several races for secretary of state, let such objections be brushed aside by the simple rejoinder that there is neither sense nor Justice in sub sequently inflicting punishment upon ! a courageous defender of his party’s cause for obeying the mandate that placed him in the forefront of the firing line of a political battle that in the very outset gave no other promise than that of vindicating the fidelity and valor of his fellow-soldiers. We are entering upon a new and better era in politics. The public good, not personal Interest, must have first consideration. Innovations are thus rendered imperative. Above all, . there must be assurance of aggressive honesty and Inflexible integrity. Broad I knowledge of men. affairs, conditions, I environments, etc., come mightily in play in the judicious exercise of gubernatorial authority. Our state constitution wisely renders the governor I Ineligible to, re-election. Thus it is intended to be intelligent service from the very beginning of the term, with no allowance of time for serving an apprenticeship. The equipment must be complete from the first day of entry, so as to assure the rendering of a full four years appreciable service. This equipment is found complete in Samuel M. Ralston—in no one more so. His wide acquaintanceship with men in every part of the commonwealth, his familiarity with every phase of state affairs, his profound knowledge of law, his large experience In the adjustment of complicated business, his compre- , hensive understanding of the needs I i of both tov(n and country, his love for ' and deep interest In argicultural and horticulture development, his concern I for helpful education, his unfeigned 1 sympathy for the toiling masses, his ! oft-tested and splendidly developed • sense of justice, his deliberateness t In forming conclusions, and above ’ everything else his rugged honesty and 1 Inflexible Integrity, point to him un- ; - erringly as a man eminently worthy -of being chosen governor of the state -of Indiana, that is proud to own him r as its adopted son.

WARNING TO GIRLS. The following from the Herald of Light has been re-published by request: “One of the chief causes of the downfall of girls is the laxness in pa rental government. Fond and indulgent parents see, when it is too late, the fatal mistake they have made in this respect. “As the daughter enters her ‘teens,’ unless she has been led into the security of the ark of God and had her heart changed, she will find herself captured by worldly allurements and enticements from giddy companions of both sexes. And when the offer presents itself from some young boy scarcely old enough to leave his mother's fireside, to take pleasure trips with the young miss, or spend late hours in her company, the foolish mother yields without a w’ord of objection of moment of anxiety and the two have started out on a surging sea to drift with the tide and finally be wrecked victims of the devil, unless some miracle of Providence intercepts them. “Mothers, do you know where your boys and girls are tonight? Can you be contented to go to sleep, while your young, unsophisticated daughter is keeping late hours somewhere with young companions? For what purpose should she do so? What reason is there in this ‘sitting up’ custom so prevalent everywhere? Or this perambulating the sheets, 'keeping company,' at such a tender age? How can you hope for anything better for the precious child’s future than a blasted life and ruined hopes, in the course she is pursuing? “You may be tempted to think you will drive her further from God to oppose her; but you are making yourself a partner in her downward course, and the Judge of all the earth will bring you to a fearful account. “Eli came to an awful end because he restrained not his sons in their wickedness. We have the same God to deal with today and the same responsibility is upon the parents of today that rested on those of olden times. “Let every one measure up to God's requirements and rescue their children from destruction.” o WILL CLOSE AT SIX. , We, the undersigned clothiers of the city of Decatur, agree to close ou: respective places of business at 6:00 p. m., for the months of January.
