Husbands Who Put
Off Being Healthy
One Minute Essays on Health
By Marshall & Wright, D. C.
“Some day I’ll have my health made safe,” the
cheerful husband said, “when I have got the bacon
cured and built a barn and shed. You do not need to
worry’ Jane, for worry makes you gray; you have
my health upon the brain, I’ll tend to it some day.
I cannot buy adjustments now—I need each picay-
une; but I’ll attend to it, my frau, some sunny after-
noon.”—Apologies to Walt Mason.
The time when folks get adjustment^ usually is
after they get sick. They wait for the human ma-
chine to break dc>wn ifi the road. Keeping the spine
in line is the way to keep every part of the body in
normal, healthful working order. The time to at-
tend to it is before the sick day comes.
Chiropractic spinal adjustments correct diseases
of the head, throat, lungs, heart, stomach"? fiver, kid-
neys and intestinal organs.
WHEN HEALTH BEGINS.
Depends on when you telephone 312 forjen appoint-
ment. Consultation is without charge.
UNCLE BEN SAYS:
“Ye can’t buy health, Nevvy, unless you mix a little
brain* with your money.”
