Tho under-sea upland thst stretches nrross from1 Newfound land lo Ireland was recOKitized to be so valuable for cable laying purposes that it was named Tele ffraph Plateau. ' Not only it is an asset because of the relatively shall wjU'U and the remitMntf com paratively low pressure to which subniei'Kcd cables , are subjected.: but the very nature .of the materi.J of the bottom Is such ns to hel: protect the cables.

''In the early day of the cable laying, when the , technique of manufacturing the. cables had nut been developed and when they were neither so strong nor so well Insulated as they . jro,,nuw I'tfl 'Teleyraph l'latcau , was., Invalu able. Now cable malt inn has ail -vanced to such a point that lM possible to mako cubles so sturdy and well Insulated that th,oy cm bo laid In water four or five miles deep.

When Inylmc a cable at su -h depths the weight of tho cable from ship to bottom -causes a tre mendous pull. It is still markedly cheaper lo make gables for mod erate depths and to lay and main tain them there.

THROUGH SPINAL ADJUSTMENTS Scientific Proof Offered by Chiropractors Chiropractic offers u now i-x- llnmirion for bodily ills. It is not u new theory, for 11 theory is something not yet provedi but this is a demonstration ot the physical fact that mechani cal adjustment of the vertebrae of the liuintiu spine will correct diseases or abnormal local con ditions in the body. The Chiropractor considers the human body a magnificent piece of mechanism, a fact that has been recognized for ages; but thcry has never been until now a system of correcting hu man ills, based upon an intelli gent recognition of that fact. When man bus suffered from some organic trouble, the rule has been to supply a name for the surface play of symptoms, and then to attempt lo supprei symptoms individually or col lectively as they appeared. Chiropractic has demonstrated to the satisfaction of thousands that nearly all bodily ailments, whether functional or organic, CAN' UK KUMIXATK1) I!Y REA D.I rfc'T M KXT OF TIIH BONKS OF THE SI'INE. As we have shown in our first lecture, all impulses that lead lo work functioning come, from tho brain, and are transmitted through the spine in a great, bundle of nerve cab' les. lictween each pair of bones in the spine, this great central cable sends out brunch es to all parts of the body. ' While the blood is the life giving element that courses to all parts of the body, the nerves provide ana control iv.s energy that translates this blood cur rent into action zest, enthusi asm, good iK'tdth. If the ncr vtotis system is wracked, de ranged or injured as a whole or in any of its parts, the body suffers more severely in direct proportion to the injury caused to the nervous system. It has been determined that the flow of electric current can be hampered or interefered with near its source and com pletely cripple whatever mech anism depends upon it for its life. If you step on a garden hose near the hydrant, you get little or no water from the noz zle. If you apply pressure to a blood vossel anywhere in the body, there is a resultant cessa- ) tion of flow. The same thing holds true wilh the nerve. Pressure on the nerve ineansi impaired vitality and force, from that point on. If this pressure is appliod near the base of the nerve, the entire region controlled by it suffers. At what point nearer its source can pressure be brought than upon a nerve in the spinal column? ! This is the kernel oT the whole Chiropractic science. The Chiropractor maintains that ailments and diseases of the hu man body en be traced to this pressure, this pinch "impinge ment" it is called, of a nerr between vertebrae or bones oY' the spinal column, the back bone. ' In succeeding lectures nil ef fort will be made to show how various specific .parts of tho body are affected by pressure upon nerves which control them.' nnd how scores of ail ments or abnormal conditions of health arise which may be traced directly to nerve pres- " sure in th. spine, and which may be relieved by re-ndjust-' incut that removes this pressure and allows the affected nerve to resume its function.
