Under a decision of the Supreme Court hand ed down yesterday the Forest Ser vice will no longer be permitted to institute criminal proceedings against persons who violate its reg ulations governing forest reserves. By a vote of four to four, , the court sustained the action of Judge Welborn, of Southern California, who sustained the demurrer of t,wo men Indicted , for grazing eheep on the Sierra fore.t reserve without per mit. Judge Welborn held that the law authorizing the Secretary of Agri culture to make regulations for the administration of forest reserves is unconstitutional In that it attemp ted to delegate legislative authority, to an executive officer and empow ered such officer to create a crimi nal offense. Forest Service officials have not yet been, advised of this declsfon, but it Is ithelr opinion that the de cision of the court merely prohibits them instituting criminal prosecution against persons who violate their regulations. It is their intention to continue their regulations In effect and to continue to charge a fee for grazing within reserves. Just iow they expect to enforce their orders, In view of this decision Is not made plain. If they find them-' lelveS helpless they probably will, appeal" to ? Congress to enact their regulations Into law. " ' ' ' "'A 8TUDY IN BACKS The Ignorance of the average lay man regarding his own anatomy is matter of constant' wonder - to the Osteopathic physician. This is par ticularly regarding the back. Many people have a vogue idea regarding the geography of the stomach, liver, tonsils, and a few other things inside, but of their backs they are absolute ly ignorant. 'There Isn't anything In the back, anyway," they will say, "Its just the back that's all." Thus is this part of the anatomy dismissed from consideration. Yes. of course, they have backaches h mbago, rheumatism, round shoulders curvatures etc., but that doesn't make any difference. They continue to put on plasters and Ida talents, rub In Iodine; and use hot water bottles, but they do not devote any more thought to the poor neglected back Itself. Let them go to the average med ical adviser and describe their aches and pains. What does he do! Does he examines the backt Oh, no., He asks a lot of questions and concludes the matter by announcing that the pain is only a "reflex'Trom pelvic or abdominal organs, or Is caused by a "general rum down condition," or "the blood Is poor," and he pres cribes a tonic or some preperation of iron, or treatment for some part of the front of the body nothing for tl)e back. Now, is this In accord with the clear teachings of anatomy and physi ology? Let us see. The growth, action and health of every part of the body depends primarily upon its nerve supply. The eplnal cord, .which is contained within the "back-bone" Is the center end switchboard of the nervous system for the trunk and from lit and to it go practically all the nerves In the tody except in the head.

Consequently any irre gularity In the back-bone or ribs or spinal muscles may re ult in disease or pain or weakness in some organ. This la the basic principle of anat omy and physiology, but has been largely Ignored by the medical pro fession until recently. The doctor has been accustomed to examine the front of the body exclusively, except when there was some specific injury or sore on the back, He had forgot ten the basic principles of the body In his strenuous race to keep up with the additions to his list of supposed remedies. The very fact that the medical pro fession Ignored' the back was the opportunity for the birth of .a new school of practice Osteopathy. This school stepped' Into the breach and has astonished the scientific world by Its ready demonstrations of its theory, that the body, as a machine, can be treated exclusively from, the (Continued on last page.)

There was nothing lu bis manner to Indicate that he expected to be wel comed with opeu arms or a blare of trumpets.

"No," replied the one who had been very rich. "The best I can hope for Is to ask that you will permit me to try to get a camel to pass through the eye of a needle. I don't suppose I can do It, but I will try. I have never be lieved in giving up without making an effort" "Your remarks lead me to believe yon were a rich man." "1 was a very rich man." "1 suppose you were not always scrupulous In your dealings with other men?" "No." "Your riches were not the result of hard work and honest dealing?" "No. I gained my millions by lay ing burdens upon others, by cunningly evading laws that were made for the purpose of protecting the weak and by engaging In enterprises that were of ten of a questionable nature." "I suppose you gave many millions to charity and did other things that were Intended to divert public atten tion from your reprehensible prac tices r "Yes.' I can see now, however, that I might as well have saved myself the trouble. Giving to charity for selfish ends instead of for the love of giving. It appears from' certain things which I have seen and beard since my arrival here, does not rank as a vir tue." "Well, If there Is nothing In your record which ought to entitle yon to admittance here, wby do you linger? "There Is one thing that I have tbongbt might be considered In my fa vor."
