of tho cubic ships in - connection
with tho laylnR of tho 21 cables

on co f n underwater plateau i l
thWrrcfflon between, NewTounulttn
and Iruhtnd. The depths over this

miles. This seems deep . enough,
nnrhaps, to the Jaymnii. but. n
short d (stance to the sou t h n n 1
to the northeast are depressions
between three nnd four miles deep.
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. It is n s.ift
ooko formed from tho. .rotted shel's
and skeletons of innumerable
small sea creatures, .which serves
as n cushion and a protective cov

''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. There tho pressure nmouii's
to several tons per square Inch
Instead of the 15 pounds pvr
miuaro Inch Hint materials are sub
Jeeted to above the surface, of the
wen. 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.
"Fourteen of tho. !M cables th.U
now cross the North Atlantic mako

directly from Net York to the
A Korea, nnd by the . ,ono . whli;h

Cape Coil to 11 rest France. ,
"Just how nn underwater earth
quake breakn a cable Is not rle;u
Theoretically a break either In lh-;
cable or its Inxulntton hiIkM be
caused by ,a shlcHlip, the openlnu
of a crevasse, the droppliw aw-iy
of a portion of the bottom, , .the
sudden rise of a sect tun of thi
ocean bed. or by, a landslide from
some ocean peak or bluff. JMob.
ably only very severe earthquhU

OISEASECORRECTCD.
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. '
