What others say NEVER TOO OLD SAYS NINETY-YEAR-OLD Ninety-year-old Emma Shyder is living proof that "you're never too old for chiropractic." Spry Mrs. Snyder, who- helps her daughter, Mrs. Alta Mae Murray, with the housework exclaims, "I am so thankful for my chiitopractor and for chiropractic which gave me relief from my back trouble!" When Mrs. Snyder was 82 she fell and broke her hip.

The Medical doctors put her in traction and gave her pain pills. Even after her hip healed, it still bothered her--until chiropractic! The chiropractor took complete X-rays of Mrs. Snyder and carefully adjusted her as a result of his finding. After a few adjustments, no mbre pills and no more "Oh, my back liurts!" "The chiropractor really knew'what to do for me," declared 1 Mrs. Snyder.

The pin placed in Mrs. Snyder's hip when she broke it is still there so no one needs to be afraid of chiropractic they also have pins. Incidentally, iEmma Snyder's daughter, Mrs. Murray, -has used chiropractic preventicre regularly for over 30 years to maintain her faith.
