Yet the average increase in my outgo thus far this season, over costs four and five years ago, runs close to 150 per cent. Probably. my condition is much like that of othsw[ farmers. Some may be doing a triflc better and some a trifle worse. B faming is pretty much of a muchnes: all over, and we'd all probably line . up fairly close to that average. Just as an army averages about five feet eight inches tall, though it may have men in it six ieet and others only four feet four. As | understand it, a “profiteer” is one who takes advantage of his own opportunity and other r_people’s needs to extort, from them™‘indue and un- déserved profits.. Especially in times of public stress, when the ordinary criterfons of value are deranged and disorganized. For that sort of ghoul we all of us have a feeling which is not censorably expressive in cold type. It is a feel- ing which makes even the most con- servative of us wonder if lynching wouldn’t sometimes be excusable. I don’t care what the thing is which a man has to sell; whether it be cotton cloth or steel nails or leather or labor or eggs or cabbages; the man who takes advantage of his courtry’s dan- | ger and his fellows' needs to charge exorbitant prices for his own selfish enrichment deserves to be ostracized— to be made a scapegoat and driven out of ;ieccnt human society into the des- ert! But T do not think many farmers would be deported under any such clause. Not that there are no sinners in the rural districts. We have our full share of scalawags, more's the pity! The great majority. however, are sound at heart, and the few who might. profiteer if they got the chance don’t get it once in a dog's age! As a rule, we're nearer the condition of those unhappy Israelites in Egypt, f whom it was demanded that they | make bricks without straw, perhaps, sometimes, without even c'ay enough! THE FARMER. CLEMENCEAU WAS NORWICH VISITOR 54 YEARS AGO While mueh has been said of Pre- mier Clemenceau’s residence in this country years ago, his marriage to a Stamford woman and other incidents connected with his stay, it is not gen- erally known that the distinguished Frenchman was a visitor in Norwich 1865. He was practically in exile when he came to the United States, the French government not caring for the attacks he made upon it in his newspaper and forcing him to leave. Of course he was not so well known then a$ he is now. In those days he met numerous newspzper men from other countries and entertained them at his Paris home. He became a great friend of {the late Henry Huntington, a known American journal brother of Monroe Hunting of orwich. When Clemenceau came to this country he carried a letter of in- troduction from Henry to his brother. au was invited by Monroe X J been erected he last word in school cons and it} a1 wnr' r-' “imne: 1 word in There had the the se been much in the proc the first Eng- “ked up. i ors the | | REDUCTION IM STATE'S UNEMPLOYED tion of irom 8 WORKERS | Teduc | neeticut maximum of 23,500 from the stimate memployment Hartford, Bridgeport, : New London, 175; Middleaown, 360.

It is the science and art of removing the cause of diseuse; which-is’ mly always found to -be impigned nerves at their exit from the ‘vertebral. column. It.is a demonstrated scientific fact that NERVE ENERGY IS THE DOMINATING FORCI within the human body, and without which life would not be possible. Every tissue cell and organ in the bedy is dependent upon it for the carrying on of its function. For example—severing the BRACHIAL NERVE produces Paralysis of the arm it supplies. - Steady vres;!m upon the Bracial Nerve produces flacidity and gradual wasting away of that axm. Severing the Phrenic Nerve; respiration ceases. Steady pressure on the Phrenic Nerve, laborious breathing follows. Severing the nerves supplying the stémach, paralysis of that organ would follow. Steady pressure npon those nerves interferes with the functional activity of that organ, and various stomach disorders follow. Any ABNORMAL condition within the body is a result of interference of this VITAL FORCE by a we- sure upon those nerves to the organ or organs in question. e v Pressure upon nerves takes place by a slight misplacement ealled Subluxation of one or more bones (Vertebra) of the vertebral column, thereby causing these openings between the Vertebra to become smaner and thus pressing upon those nerves as they emerge from the Spine, or vertebral column. STOMACH DISORDERS. These distressing conditions, under ordinary treatment, at its best, ean be given only religf. As an illustration: HYPOCHLORHYDRIA, which is the lack of Hydro-Chloric Acid in the stomach, produces a chain of symptoms after eating, particularly belching gas, sour taste in the mouth and a burning feeling at the pit of the stomach. Ordinary treatment would suggest administering medicine in the form of chemically prepared Hydro-Chloric Acid to make up the deficinecy in the stomach of this important glandular | Jjuice. - Continuing the use of it would be necessary—to stop, would mean the old troubles returning. THIS COULD NOT BE CALLED A CURE. Under CHIROPRACTIC methods the CHIROPRACT OR looks for the CAUSE of this trouble and finds that the glands that manufacture Hydro_Chloric Acid are not receiving their full cupply of Nerve Energy. The ONLY LOGICAL thing to do then is to have the CHIROPRACTOR release the pressure of the nerve causing the trouble and thus these glands will manufacture the proper amount of secretions and then all unpleasant symptoms disappear. In GASTRITIS, NERVOUS DYSPEPSIA, STOMACH PROLAPSIS, and discases of the organs allied with the stomach, CHIF‘OPRACT!G HAS ACHIEVED REMARKABLE RESULTS. NEUROSTHENIA is a condition involving practically the entire nervous system. The characteristics of this disease are: persistent headaches, mental depression, general sleeplessness and a host of other symptoms. CHIROPRACTORS have found that the cause of the above disea: Cord, which interferes with the normal function of the different orga: spoken of, cause an inefficiency in practically every, organ of the body. CAN BE RESTORED. i$ a siight pressure upon the Spinal of the body. The Spinal Cord pressure BY PROPER ADJUSTMENT HEALTH NEURITIS, SCIATICA AND RHEMATISM are affections CHIROPRACTORS in these cases look for pressure upon the nerves pleasant sensations. Especially in Neuritis of the arm, nerve pressure where these nerves, passing to the arms, leave the vertebral column. sure by the skilled hands of a CHIROPRACTOR by painless methods appears. Also Sciatica, the Scfitic nerve is interfered with. Slight displacements in the lower part of the Spine, ‘where certain nerves leave and enter the legs, cause this painful malady. A CHIROPRACTOR can locate this pressure and restore a normal condition. REMOVING THE CAUSE IS THE CHIROPRACTIC IDEA, instead of treating the EFFECTS with drugs—the OLD WAY. where the nerves of sensation are involved. that are causing the pain and other un- s found at the lower part of the neck, It . matter of releasing this pres- | he condition known as Neuritis dis_ - CONSTIPATION is cles of the intestin normality is again re an inactivity of the bowels, resuiting from a lack of Motor Nerve Tonicity to the mus- CHIROPRACTIC methods restore the Proper nerve function to these parts and thus tored. Cathartics are only a TEMPORARY RELIEF and in MANY cases AGGRAVATE the condition. Why not remove the CAUSE instead of using PALLIATIVES WHICH DO NOT CURE? KIDNEY DISORDERS. CHIROPRACTIC ADJUSTMENT will make it possible for those who have been refused by insurance companies for having suffered with kidney disease, to be accepted as good risks. Re_ storing proper nerve functions to these o ns is the ONLY way to render them normal. LIVER DISORDERS, including SLUGGISHNESS, which manifests itself in a sensation of fullness and dis: comiort in the right side after eating, etc. CHIROPRACTORS remove the CAUSE of this condition by allowing Nature to transinit normal amount of Nerve to the liver by releasing the Nerve Pressure.
