Healing by Spinal Adjustment
Based on Absolute Facts
of Anatomy, Says
Dr. Turner.
I)r. Frances il. Turner. 32fi Bran
dois Theater building, who has been
in active practice 13 years, says:
‘‘Chiropractic is a method of elim
inating the cause of disease by ad
justments. It is based on absolute
facts of human anatomy, backed by
sound philosophy anti proven correct
by thousands of cases in clinic as
well ns in actual prat th <• of chiro
practors the world over.
‘‘So simple, yet so sure, is the ap
plication that the marvel is that its
discovery was delayed until tie 20th
century. The chiropractic idea is
this: The cause of disease js in the
person afflicted. Adjustments correct
conditions that produce it. The func
tion of every organ in the body Is
controlled by the brain through men
tal Impulses which are transmitted
over nerves. Any impingement or
pinching of the delicate nerve fibers,
interfering with the free flow of
nature's life-giving force, result in Im
paired. or abnormal function. This is
disease. This Interference is produced
by vertebrae which are out of their
normal position (stibitixatedi pressing
upon nerves at the taunt where they
pass out from (he spinal cord to vital
ize various organs of the body. The
trained adjuster expert. In his or her
] knowledge of tho spine, locates the
exact point of Interference and by ad
justing the subluxated (misalinged)
i vertebrae, removes the cause.
“Normal condition—health—Is the
icsult.” „

Omaha Dentist Tells Why X
Rav Is So Im
portant.
"It is Surprising." said Dr. (!■ D.
.Shipherd, "how ninny teeth have had
pus infected roots that the patient
has no warning of the condition by
aches 6r pain. The bone has no
nerves to speak of it , ,n tie cut like
H finger nail. Many times, in fact,
most of the time, when the bone de
lays around the tooth, there is no
pain at all to the patient, but still is
very poisonous, imisoning the blood in
oh a way that the energy of the
patient is sapped away, many times
making them very nervot
can't sleep nights, cither
are melancholy and cry at almost
nothing, Iastir this leads to rheu
matism, and neuritis, with sharp
shooting- pains across the chest, arms,
limbs etc. f
“Wf figure that the X-rays are so
important that for a long time I made
no charge at all for them, but this
wan a little too expensive so we
changed our plan and at this tune i*e
are just charging the cost of the
films and development, which make
tile cost so low that patients are gIn
to have this done, as it shows to both
the patient and the dentist the exact
condition of the teoih. Without this .
dentist can only see one-third of the
tooth."
