He knows exactly what Its adjustments should be throughout; and, when good health is not resulting from Us labors, be at once, seeks to learn in what re spect Us adjustments) differ from those of the normal body In which there Is no blemish, of disease. The case of the human machine differs from that of the machine of metal only for the reason that when there la faulty operation defects In Its adjustments are much more cer tain to exist. It Is a proven fact that, there la scarcely a species, of disease, or a single case of any such species, In which either the aggra vating or the pre-disposlng cause Is not discoverable mis-adjustment of some parts of tbe structure. This c DMMERCIA BOOSTER may be a displacement of the bony parts from their normal relative positions, a contracture of soft tis sues, the sagging of some soft tis sue part such as the stomach or in testines, or other abnormality im the structure. In any case lit causes Interference with the proper circulation of the fluids and nerve force of the body, and the only hope of radical cure lies in. lta correction. In the thirty-Ahree year of its de velopment period Osteopathy has thoroughly proven every one of these facts,- and Osteopaths every where are proving them anew con stantly by removing the structural causes of disease and bringing health even In the most difficult andi aban doned cases.
