Many ingenious theories have been advanced concerning the cause of disease in the human body. Ancient peoples claimed: disease was visited upon mankind because the gods were angry. The Chinese, who seem to have had a germ theory all their own, said the air was filled with tiny invisible demons who swept down upon em hapless »victims and caused disease and death. Gods and devils—and germs! Well, the blame for disease must be pinned to somebody or something! And if you can’t actually prove anything against an alleged malefactor, it is well to pick out as mys- terious a malefactor as possible against whom to allege. Today, as we stand on the threshold of enlightenment, we realize that gods and devils are but figments of the imagination of ignorance; But the festive There MUST we know that gods and devils do not cause disease. germ! Ah! We must hug him close to our bosoms. be a cause for disease; nothing can exist without a cause. Mr. Germ and his kinfolk are our last refuge. Besides, the Germ family have such aristocratic names; they sound so scientific. Germs exist, of course. powerful microscope. desperate look and a horrible contour generally. blame it on the germs! One can see them by squinting through a And they have wriggly legs, a wicked and Disease? Let’s The mere fact that germs are not beautiful, however, is not con- clusive evidence against them. Personal pulchritude does not always signify probity. Usually the homeliest man is the most upright and righteous; he can’t get away with anything. Despite their dignified names and their depraved looks, germs are NOT the’ direct cause of any disease. Germs are the scavengers of the human body. They eat up waste and poisonous material within the body. But they believe in marriage and in the raising of large families. Therein lies their menace. The normal body does not allow the germs to increase at too rapid a rate; they are thrown off daily, hourly, by the millions. But when the body is abnormal, it cannot successfully resist the encroachments of Senor Germ and family. The Senor and his progeny eat up th waste matter as always, but when that is gone they start irrita healthy tissue; they become an added burden to the body. Then we have disease. Whence the authority forsthe above? From’ the great drugless health science of Chiropractic, which removes the REAL cause of disease. Go to a Chiropractor today. Ask him about it. And don’t worry about the festive germ. J. H. and A. G. Jeffrey CHIROPRACTORS | Midwest Building, Suite 318 to 323 Office Phone 706, Res. 93 Po : TRENDIN GRAIN.
