Studebaker
em
or the first eight months of 1921, our sales of Studc
baker Cars were 41 greater than for the same period
of 1920, and 101 greater than for the same period
of 1919. For the same period, our sales of Repair
Parts were 13 less than in 1920, and 3 less than
in 1919.
On September 1st, 1921, there were approximately
1 1 6,000 more Studebaker Cars in operation than two
years ago, and yet our parts business is 3 less than it
was in 1919. This proves conclusively that
Studebaker Can are up in service
and staying out of repair shops, to a degree
unexcelled, we believe, by any cars of what
ever price. - - :

"Great bodies move slowly," as it evidenced by the fact that the medical profession required more than 25 year
to accept the discovery of the circulation of the blood by William Harvey, M. D., who was one of their own number. How
much longer it will take them to accept Chiropractic nobody know; however, it U a fact that an ever-increasinf num
' bar are, like myself, adopting it to the exclusion of medicine.
'' Thar are some physicians no doubt who still apeak disparagingly of Chiropractic, and you will find, as a rule,
that those who rant the loudest know the least. Perhaps they are not entirely to blame, for if their lack of knowledge
is the cause of their opposition, what is to be said of the r esponsibility of the patients who tell "white Has" te their
family physician whea he curiously inquires as to the source of their health?
When a patient whom the family doctor has treated for years for some chronic, incurable (?) disease gets well, ;
and the physician inquires how it happened, the patient may be animated by kindnesa when he conceals the fact that
he owes his restoration to health te Chiropractic, but he isn't doing justice te himself, the medical doctor or the)
' Chiropractor.' . ' ! :.;;.. ' .'
In spite, however, of the bitter prejudice of some of the medical profession, and the reticence of seme patients,
there is an ever-increasing number of M. D.'s all over the United States and Canada who understand, appreciate aad
practice straight Chiropractic to the exclusion of medicine and every other method. . Witness the following selected -.'
at random: t"
; "80 of the population are afflicted with some form of spinal defect; that is the cause of so much nervousness,
indigestion, headache, rheumatism, mental weakness and other grave and dangerous diseases," W. H. Shumley, M. D. '
"When Chiropractic was brought to my attention I listened to seemingly extravagant statements relative te it,
and I was offended becaused it reflected odium on the old time-honored profession in which 1 no longer sincerely be
lieve. In time it dawned on me, however, that Chiropractic patient who had from a medicinal standpoint been con
sidered hopeless cases, such as those with rheumatism, diabetes,. Bright' disease, infantile paralysis and, many ether '
. maladies, were getting well, so that I began te read up on Chiropractic. The more I read about it, the more 1 saw it
to be the means of true salvation from the cause of diseas es." -F. A. Hall, M. D., D. C, Indianapolis, Ind. '
"What the patient want is results. If the medical doctor cannot give them to him, although he learnedly tall '
. him what ie the matter with him, and the irregular can, just so long those method of treatment are going to have fol- '
lowers, and rightly, too." Richard Cabot, M. D., Chief Medical Staf fr Massachusetts General Hospital.
- "Clinical record show that there is hardly a recognised form of disease that cannot be successfully treated by
Chiropractic adjustments. Chiropractic ha passed through its trial stages. The number of the educated class that -"
now testify to the efficacy of Chiropractic lifts it out of the experimental stage into a science that mankind will bless."
. D. T. Krudrop, M. D.
"In the acute case one get marvelous result. Do not be afraid of such cat. In adjustment you have ab
solute control, end after a little experience you will soon realize you have an unequaled health system in your hand.
I am in better shape to ay that, because I have gone through every stage of 'mixing,' until today I am an out and out
Chiropractor." Your truly, Frederick L. Fischer, M. D D. C, Philadelphia, Pa.
"Results are what count, and Chiropractic adjustment, when scientifically given, bring them, notwithstanding -what
our medical friends (?) may say to the contrary." '(Signed) Wm. A. Seeley, M. D. C.
"Chiropractic reaches successfully a larger number of so-called chronic diseases, and is so much superior te the
Jrug method that it it truly laughable to compare them." Alfred Walton, M. D., Philadelphia.
"Chiropractic removea the cause of disease more promptly, radically and permanently than any -other known
method." G. H. Patchen, M. D., D. C, Editor Health Cultare.
"I have been keeping my eyes open and observing case under Chiropractic adjustments. I am convinced of
the superior merit of this form of health practice." Yours truly, H. G. Gould, M. D., Nephi, Utah.
