What. Did She Do to ,

.

Win- Him? The first titne that he met her, to everybody's surprise, she fascinated him. Something about her, something she did, something she said, made him sit up and take notice. From then on his interest grew, his calls became more and more frequent, until at last it was evident to ev ryone that he was hers; that no other girl on earth could be to him what this comparatively plain, unassuming girl was. Thi happen every day. It is not only the beautiful women who win men. Women not con idered beautiful are ~etting engaged and bing married every day; and their lov rs ador them just as devotedly a though they were surpassingly beautiful. What is it about such a woman that inspires d votion? What i It about her that can make a man feel that hi happiness depends upon her. and her alone? Every woman. in winning a man's heart. show certain qualiti of character and practices certain principl . Sometimes she acts in tinctively and unconsciously. sometim s purpo fully and consciou ly-but she can neV'cr win him. either consciou ly or unconsciously. unless she practices those prindples. Yet there is nothing immode t. forward. or

un maidenly in anything sh doe . h has simply been HER ELF-and permitt d th man to glimpse h r a littlc more intimately than sh doe the world in gen ral. Thc practicing of th principl make her mor refin d. more daintily bewitching and maidenly than ev r. Her method are bad on a Psychology as old as the race. upon long tablished and w II-known principl of human nature. Th r is no mystery about it--exc pt the fact, perhaps, that no on has ever, heretofore. r duced it to a formal science and· put it upon a "working basis." There is no accid nt about it -for when a woman practices these principles sh can be just as certain of making herself attractive to men as she is that two and two make four. The principles are simply and comprehensiv Iy explained in a t of eight small book, entitl d-

Everybody wondered why he married her when ao many more beautiful airls would have aladly been hi. (or the adlina

The Art of Attracting Men Many girl. without knowing it. do the very Oling' th;lt cause men to 10 inter st in them. Thi ourse in the art of winning men shows how hUll\an nature works in men; how certain traits. usually overlookcd by the girl themIvc ,inspir liking, and how other habit$, of which f w girl usp ct the importance, can make an}" girl. no matter how beautiful otherwisC". disagreeable in m n's ey . In fact, many girl, not under tanding HOW DIFFERENT human nature in men i from human nature in women. drive away even thos men who ar at fir t attracted to them. This course disc10 es how. in evcry woman, placcd there by nature, is the latent power to fascinate men. Properly guid d, you can call up this power. develop it. and u it ff ctively when and where you will. You will learn hundreds of methods, mode t but skillful. maidenly but sur, for winning a man' adoration. You will learn the tr melldous cr ts that enable you to subordinate the comparatively trivial matters of dre s, accompli hment. or physical beauty-how to b and how to reveal your REAL SELF-how to p rmit th man to glimpse the lovable REALITY hidden deep in your heart.

The Secrets of Fascinating Womanhood are broueht out clearly and plainly in thi. eoura.. The followina titl •• of the alahteen chapter. alve • auaae.lion of the completen ... and the thorouahn ... with which the aubject h •• b •• n covered. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. t4. 15. 16. 17. t8.

The Five Sta, •• of Winnin, a Man. Why Men Are Hard to Win. The Kind of Woman a Man Want.. Developine Your Latent Power. Charm and How to Acquire It. Winnln. a Man 'a Admiration. The Quality that Inapirea Love. Revealine Your Real Self. The Appearance that Faadnatea. Where and How to Meet Men. Peculiaritiea of Human Nature In Men. Makina Men Notice You. Method of Arouaina IntereU. Undarminina the Man'a Reaerve. Arouaina Worship, Adoration, Gnd Love. Removina the Obatadea to Marriaee. Inap1rina the Propoa"l. Ceneral Conduaiona.

Do You Know What to Do? Perhaps YOl. ha~e already met the 1110" yo,. want. If 1Iot, sooller or later you WILL meet him, the 11'01. of yo"r dreams, the ollly 1IIan who could make YOl. happy. Will yo,. k,IOW wllat to do then? Will you k"olV 11010 to begin? What if lie pays 110 attelltiol. to you? Will yon kllow what methods to employ to arouse his illterest in you, to keep him interested IiIltil he can lear" to know the lo~elilless of your Real elf?

Not Luck-but Art and Knowledge There is but one way you can be sure of winning him when you meet him. That way is an ART--and is explained thoroughly in THE ART OF ATTR 1'1 G ME . If you know men and their nature, if you und rstand what fascinatc them, how they arc won, if you have learned the many different .plans which thousand of other wom n have found successful, you will havc a hundrcd-fold bett r chance than if you are totally unprepared. You will know exactly what you arc about. you will make no mi tak s. You won't flounder around without aim or plan, but will use tried and proven method; you won't depend upon luck, but upon art and knowledgc. Any good mother should be glad to place thi course in the hands of her daughter. It contain .the thing --and only the thingsthat a live. self-respecting, modest, and womanly woman ought to know about her own p ychology. her own per onality. h r own od-given powers. There i not an offen ive word or allusion in it. It di 10 ure. its teachings. are all upon the highcst plane.

Learn Your Own Powers When the average woman develop her own latent power and choo s to exert them, she is irr sistible. he can employ a thousand little enticements, covertly but mode tly bring into action a whole batt ry of feminine charms and graces before which th average man is as defen less as a rabbit in the paws of a maneating tiger. YO have as much of this ability, this power, a most other women. It is only that. perhap . you don't know what it i or how to U. it. Learn the art of fa cinating III n, know what a wonderful thing it is to f el your own power, to bc popular, ought after, and altog ther b witching, to go everywher • to join in all the good times. and to

have your choice of a dozen dC'irable men. Why let yourself be di appointed by lack of knowledge of the power that is within you? Why not employ the arts and the method and the plans by which thousand of women have been winni:lg the h arts of men?

Docs your wife look upon you in admiration as her ideal physically and m nt.2Jly? Does she compare you with other men and see you as the noblest of them all? Or does she see in you a frail, hesitating. discourag d individual for whom she 'is sorry--a weakling she has to jolly and coax and prod to go to work and make a man of himself? Are you languid. tired out. disinclined to go out into ocial circles where both sexes mingl and enjoy them Ives? Or are you a croaker and a grouchy. grumpy clod whom nobody wants around?

~ ~ ~

Nobody Loves a Weakling Don't think for a minute that your wife, family. friends and associates will put up with your complaints and weakne indefinitely. You can't expect them to have much respect for you when they know that your condition i the direct result of neglecting your health and violating 'ature's inflexible laws. They are sorry for you. but sympathy will not restore your health and vitality and very day to continue to exist in the rut of physical debility is a day wasted for y and those who mu t put up with your sickly company. What good are you to yourself or anyon else? There is no pleasure in living when you feel wor each day-with no relief in sight and big bills to pay for dope and drug that can never help you and may seriously harm you. Come-pull your If togeth r--show them that you have some real grit and courage-that you can and will be a 100% succe sful, vigorous mana real man in the fullest nse of the word-the man that your wife and family expect you to be.

and Is Advertising· Ethical? ROBABLY the greatest advertising campaign ever conducted was that of Liberty Loans by the United States Government, yet no one ever questioned its objects or ethics. Webster says the word advertise is a derivative of the word advert, which means "to turn to," and that the word means "to notify," "to give notice," so we conclude that anything in the nature of a notice which turns the mind and attention of the public to a person, object or thing is advertising. Business cards, newspaper and magazine articles, and even the recommendation of patients would properly be placed in the category of advertising. The question, then, of why do Chiropractors advertise, is answered by the definition:

P

They simply give notice of a n w discovery with the object of turning the attention of the public toward Chiropractic. But i it ethical to do thi ? \\ eb ter define ethics a "pertaining to conduct and involving the moral que tion," i. ., the que tion of right and wrong, 0 that the que tion might be tated a follow: I it right to gi e notice to the public that a great, ne, di covery ha be n made in the method of tting th ick well? \ hen the que tion i 0 tated it an, r its If.

They made her feel even more unhappy-but she liked to look at them. One of the pictures showed her prawled on a bear-rug, her tiny fi ts clenched, her saucy little face staring straight up at you as though she were saying, "Well, here I am-look at me!" She liked that picture best of all. There was another one that she could hardly believe was herself, it looked so very much like an exquisite little fairy. Wisps of golden curl framed a face as round and soft and pretty as an angel' ,and wise, black eye looked out at the world in wi tful surprise. The third was taken when she was three years old. A pert little thing, gay in a crisp new frock, tumble-down curls that covered each other in golden profusion, a skin as delicate and creamy as a pearl, and eyes that danced with the trusting light of childhood. he wa looking at that picture now, and a queer, quick tab of pain shot through her.

You could see how happy she was just by looking at her. And it wa only because she had such a beautiful, clear complexion, such sparkling eyes, uch lustrous, attractive hair. Why, la t night in the moonlight she had looked perfectly adorable, even though her feature weren't nearly as pretty as Helen's.

"Why, Helen lerton, you've been crying!" she exclaimed. Then, because her heart held more than it could bear, because for days and weeks her unhappiness had grown and grown until now it seemed to ovenvhelm her, Helen sobbed out her story. In broken whispers she told how self-conscious the eruption on her face had made her, how she had tried everything to clear her skin, how even her hair was beginning to fade and 10 e its brilliance. "Tom wouldn't dare be rude to me if I were pretty," she said bitterly. "He promised to come last night, but he went walking with you.

The Greatest Surprise of my Life That night I was astonished to learn that there was but One Great Rule that covered every sort of drawing. I rna tered this rule in just fifty minutes, and in two hours found that I could draw. Think of it! It was almost like magic. I had never before been able to draw a recognizable object. t this time I was a salesman so that the only time that I had to practice and apply this secret, this Rule, was in spare minutes when at the office or at home. But I progressed with almost unbelievable rapidity.

My First Real Drawing One day I was.talking with a buyer. Remembering Larry's "idea-pictures," I drew some figures to illustrate the point I was trying to establish. He looked at the picture and caught my idea at once. Before I left he gave me a larger order than I had ever before received (rom him. My pictures had put my idea over.

Easier than Learning to Operate a Typewriter

Through this amazing system, drawing can be tal~ght as easily as anything else. In his simple, home-study course a world-famous cartooni t, Charles Lederer, teaches you to draw just as a business school teaches you to keep books, or operate a typewriter or write shorthand. But it is a hundr d times simpler than any of those accomplishments. And the best part of it all i that the course teaches you to draw so that you can sell your pictures right from the start. That is really the most important part after all. Everyone wants to sell his work, and that is just what you can do with Mr. Lederer's gr at secret. Don't mi understand, I am not praising myself. The point i thi -if I, who never was able to draw at all, could achieve this really remarkable success, others can do the same or better. See for yourself--send for the course and try it out. If you can draw at all you will probably get along even faster than I, and you will find modern commercial art the most fascinating

But act AT 0 CEo Learn to draw-whether or not your aim is commercial art. It is a bht asset no matter which field you are in. Let us disclose to you the whole seCret. Detach the coupon and mail TODA Y. Independent Corporation, Dept. 0.247, 22 We t 19th St" ew York.

Anno'unc'ing THE COMING OF

Beautiful Womanhood a magazine for women to be 'published by' the MACFADDEN PUBLICATio 5, I~c., beginning with the August issue. Beautiful Womanhood is an entirely new magazine not only in the.sense of never before having been published but in the infinitely broader sense of being the first magazine ever published to devote itself exclusively to the interests of women-and to nothin~ else. To it every woman, no matter what her age or station, can look for help and suggestion in living her own life in her own way, in giving the greatest expres.sion to.herself, in solving the many pro1;>lems of such an intimately personal nature that the. advice of even her nearest and dearest friend can have but little value.

Wherein Beautiful Womanhood DijJers from Other Mag~zines Admirable magazines there are and many of them, that are classified under the general category of "women's magazines" but of all we have examined in years of observation, we have yet to find one that every woman can look upon as being peculiarly her own. In each and every one the identity of woman eems to be confused with household matters, cookery, styles and many other things which in the last analysis, while of interest to women, are in no wise representative of womanhood itself. Because we are convinced that women will welcome a magazine to which they can tum with the feeling that here they will find nothing that does not deal entirely with the things which constitute womanhood in its finest, truest sense, July 15th will mark the inception of Beautiful Womanhood-a newoomer among the powerfully successful group of periodicals constituting the "Macfa,dden Publications."

Why the Name "Beautiful Womanhood" This great new magazine has been named "Beautiful Womanhood" because the world thinks of women in terms of beauty. r ot beauty of face and perfectly moulded form but the deep, underlying qualities of womanhood that have made her sex revered and her name symbolic thru the ages of all that is fine and pure, constant and unselfish, loyal and incorruptible, charmingly desirable. Th se are the qualities that by ceaselessly striving for a higher plane of being, for better conditions and greater advantages for her children, have literally built up civilization from a state of darkest savagery. And these are the qualities that constitute the true beauty and charm of womanhood that is ¡the birthright of every woman, that every woman possesses in a greater or less degree and which, unlike purely physical beauty, every woman has it in her power to increase to a point limited only by her own desire. With this true inner beauty of womanhood, without which no woman, no matter how physically perfect, is really beautiful, and possessing which in marked degree, the plainest woman wields an irresistible charm, will Beautiful Womanhood deal. Its aim and ambition is to make each ~<:c;ue such that every woman reading it will be broader, finer, more vitally alive for havin done so, possessed of a greater degree of the beauty and charm of womanhood thru a d~eper knowledge of the underlying facts of life; to make itself a true friend to every woman in time of need and a source of keenest pleasure in her lighter moments. . The 6rst issue, August, will be on sale at the news-stands July 15th. 25 cents per copy. May it bring the joy to you we think it will.

And, mark you! the exer ise are dropped just as soon as the object i obtained. fter that the adoption of the habits of breathin ,walking, etc., taught by heckley, will bring added trength and health with no consciou exertion. he said,

"It Is Like Having Money Out at Interest" "The Income Does Not Seem to be Worked For."

Having but an ordinary phy ique and poor health, he found that he made but light gain from a lavi h routine of exercises, so tudied anatomy and evolved hi y tem of growing healthy and trang. He acquired uch a onstitution, and uch trength and underlying vitality, that at the a e of seventy he wa able, any day, to trot one hundred yard whil carrying three men on hi back.

In every man's life there is one Big Moment when he makes the decision that either robs him of success-or leads on to fortune

YOurOne Chance to Earn

TheBiqf/'!stMOnejufljourLife I H

AVE you ever con idered why our

richest men come from our poore t boys? Isn't it a strange thing that it is almost invariably a young fellow who starts life without a cent in the world, without education, without influential friends-in short, without one single solitary advantage-who accumulates millions of dollars? Isn't it a miracle that inside of a comparatively few years a man can rise from abject poverty to fabulous wealth? A tonishing. certainly-but more important. it i wonderfully inspiring. For it means that no man need be held down by circumstances. Once he knows the "millionaire's secret," he can put it into operation regardless of all (b tacles that seem to block his path. His fancied handicaps simply vanish into thin air. He suddenly finds that everything he touches turns to gold-money flow in upon himfortune howers him with its favors. Everything he wants eems to come to him just as surely and easily as day comes after night.

The Secret that Makes Millionaires . But millionaires are not the only ones who u e thi secret. I t has made every great man of history. Think of apoleon-an unknown orsican oldier in the ranks-then uddenly startling the world with his meteor-like ri e, overthrowing empires, reshaping the destinies of nationsl What i this amazing secret that can work such wonders? It i just this: The thing behind all big achievemmt, whether in business. political or military life, is opportunity. The man who wins is the man who sees his opportunity and seizes it. The man who never rises above the rut is the man who lets his opportunity pass. To every man there comes one BIG opportunity-the golden chance of his life. And in the moment he decides for or against that opportunity-whether he will seize it or let it pass-he decides the whole future course of his life. How often you hear a man say: "If only I had recognized my opportunity when it came -if only I had taken advantage of it-I would be a rich man today."

The world is full of such men-they plod along year after year-slaving away, hoping that somehow things will take a turn for the better. But their chance for success is goneit lies buried in the graveyard of neglected opportunity. On the other hand. let a man see and grasp his Big Opportunity-no matter how ob cure he may be, how poor, how lacking in advantage -and his sudden ri e to success will astonish the world. People will gasp at the amazing transformation in his fortunes. Read the life of any millionaire and you will find this to be so.

Choose Between Low Pay and Magnificent Earnings Thi very minute you may be face to face with your Big Opportunity-your olle chance to earn the biggest money of your lifel Right now your decision may mean the difference between a life of plodding. routine work at low pay and a care r of inspiring succe s and magnificent earnings. For now you are offered the very opportunity that has made oth r men rich. that ha brought them more money than they ever dreamed of earning. It is the same opportunity that lifted Warren Hartle. of hicago, out of a job in the railway mail service, where in ten years he had never gotten b yond 1,600 a year, and landed him in a 10.000 a year job. It jumped harle Berry. of Winters t, Iowa, from 60 a month as a farmhand, to 1.000 a month. It brought to C. W. ampbell. of reensburg. Pa., a clerk on the railroad. a position that paid him 1,562 in thirty days. These men and hundreds more have found their Big Opportunity in the wonderful field of Salesmanship. They are all Ma ter Salesmen now. They are earning the biggest money of th ir lives-more than they ever thought possible-they are engaged in the most fascinating work in the world-they are independent. come and go as they pleasethey meet big men--every minute of the day is filled with thrilling variety. Your Big Opportunity may be here too. in the wonder field of alesmanship. Perhaps you say you have never even thought of becoming a Salesman. But before you decide one way or the other, examine the facts for

Do you recall one of those rare moments in life when the veil is lifted for a moment, when a breath of inspiration comes like a flash, when the future seems to be suddenly illuminated, when you feel a mastery stealing into hands' and brain, when you see yourself as you really are, see the things you might do, the things you can do, when forces too deep for expression, too subtle for thought, take possession 'of, you, and then, as you look back on the world again, you find it different, something has come into your life-you know not what, but you know it was something v~ry real? There is a power which can unlock the secret chambers of success and throw wide the doors which seem to bar men from the Treasure house of Nature. This may seem to be too good to be true, but remember that within a few years science has placed almost infinite resources at the disposal of man. Is it not possible that there may be other laws containing still greater possibilities? You need not acquire this power. You already have it. But you want to understand it; you want to use .it; you want to control it; you want to impregnate yourself with it, so that you can go forward and carry the world before you. And what is this world that you would carry before you? It is no dead pile of stones and timber; it is a living thing! It is made up of the beating hearts of humanity and the indescribable harmony of the myriad souls of men, now strong and impregnable, anon weak and vacillating. It is evident that it requires understanding to work with material of this description; it is not work for the ordinary builder.

PHYSICAL CULTORE BERNARR MACFADDEN'S VIEWPOINT Physical Culture Week

O

UR first National Physical Culture Week celebration was a huge success. The attention it attracted everywhere far exceeded our expectations. Endorsements from prominent people of all kinds assisted materially in making the week a great event. It was endorsed by General Pershing and prominent people everywhere. Ten governors, fourteen Congressm~n, thirty-three mayors and eight Senators also lent their influence to the cause. In many cities celebrations of various kinds were held. The public schools of Boston and New York recognized our National Week and helped us in celebrating it. Allentown, Pa., among the smaller cities, deserves special credit for the enthusiastic manner in which it developed and carried out a real Physical Culture Week program. Arthur Brisbane, the only author who is said to have a reading public of more than five million, devoted his entire department of more than a column in the first editorial pages of more than sixty newspapers. Two meetings were held in New York. The first meeting at the Town Hall was well attended. Mr. Muldoon, Dr. Copeland and many other speakers presented the physical culture principles in a splendidly interesting manner. A large meeting was held at Webster Hall later on in the week, with a crowded attendance. The Rotary Club of New York gave a physical culture luncheon which was addressed by several members of the Physical Culture Committee. This is merely a brief glimpse of some of the more important activities that were brought into being because of Physical Culture Week. The great outstanding factor, however, was the keen interest of the general public throughout the country in the cause for which this magazine has been fighting for so many. years. PHYSICAL CULTURE has come into its own. It se¡ . cured recognition everywhere, from the highest to the lowest. Its sphere has been recognized. As a factor in the building of this Nation, from now on it should take its rightful place. The builder of a stronger nation, which was the slogan adopted for Physical Culture Week, clearly presents our object. To build a stronger nation you must first of all build a stronger individual and added strength not only means more muscular power but it means improved digestion, better functioning throughout the body and, what is perhaps of more importance to many individuals, it means a clearer, better brain. If your digestion is good, your blood contains the quality which is essential to properly nourish the brain and with a strong body and a brain that has been given proper activity, one has a capital in life that is invaluable. It is worth more than a rich inheritance. For money that comes to you without effort is soon squandered. If one is compelled to earn the capital that he uses he has then learned how to use it wisely. He understands how to husband his resources. And to a large extent, physical health can be compared to financial health. When one works diligently and persistently for the health that he acquires, he values it. He knows how to take care of it. But when

one inherits unusual vitality and is able to break all the laws of health with impunity, physical capital is lightly valued. He often learns, when too.late, that he might have saved his health and even his life, if he had been properly equipped with health knowledge. Physical Culture Week has been a great national lesson. It has brought home to millions of people the importance and value of being fit. Office workers, bank presidents, executives everywhere, doctors, lawyers, statesmen, have had their attention called to our particular conception of physical culture. Unusual interest has been aroused in unexpected sources. Men of great influence in the Nation have added their weight in favor of our propaganda. ~

Physical Culture Exhibition Return IFTEEN years ago the first Physical Culture Exhibition was held in Madison Square Garden. For two successive years this exhibition was continued. We have arranged another exhibition to take place the latter part of October. This should also serve as a great lesson, not only in New York but throughout the country, as to the value of the principles we have been advocating. This exhibition will be, to a certain extent, similar to those previously held. There will be contests of various kinds in which prizes will be offered for athletic and muscular abilities. A $1,000 prize will also be given for the best specimen of manhood and the same prize for the best specimen of womanhood. Arrangements are being perfected to conduct a local contest in various cities so that proper representatives may be selected to compete in the national competition to be held at Madison Square Garden. We expect this to be the greatest physical culture exhibition ever attempted. The various attractions cover every phase of the physical culture movement and should arouse the keenest possible intereSt of all those who attend., One feature 'o~ this exhibition will be the presentation of human testimonials as to value of physical culture principles in the cure of disease. A space will be set apart for a number of people who have been miraculously cured of various so-called incurable diseases, through physical cu1tur~ methods. Those attending the Garden will have an opportunity to talk to these people in person and hear their story first-hand. We invite those whose lives have been saved through physical culture methods to communicate with us if they would like to spend the week inNew York. We will pay the expenses during that week to all those whose services are acceptable in connection with this particular feature. When one has been cured, in a miraculous manner, from an apparently incurable disease, he likes nothing better than an opportunity to tell his experience. He wants others to go and do likewise. Those who want to take part in these living testimonials should communicate with us. Those who

Hot W eather Diet SPECIAL attention is called to the article on hot-weather diet appearing in this issue. Do not forget the importance of giving at least a reasonable amount of attention to your diet during the hot season. During the Summer one can very greatly increase the discomfort associated with heat, by eating beyond the needs of the body. Be sure to eat freely of fruit at this season. A fruit meal, now and then, is quite valuable. Green salads, of all kinds, can also be recommended. A meal composed of salads, with a little whole wheat bread and butter, is very much better than a meal of meat and potatoes at this period of the year. An entire fast of a day or two, at this time of the year, is perhaps more agreeable than at any other time. One of the most uncomfortable features associated with fasting is depleted circulation. One feels the cold far more than usual. Naturally during hot weather, one does not notice symptoms of this nature. This is also a good time of the year to test out the no breakfast plan, if you have never tried it before. Be satisfied with one or two glasses of cold water. Though if you are addicted to the coffee habit, perhaps hot water might be better. Your organism will not miss the stimulus of breakfast quite so much if the usual hot drink is taken. It is needless to mention the necessity of avoiding heavy meats. But if you do eat meat, do not take too many other foods at the same meal. The principal injury that comes from a meat diet is the mixture of meat with other foods. Meat, for example, is supposed to be one of the principal causes of rheumatism. But Dr. Salisbury, the celebrated physician, of meat diet fame, cured many cases of rheumatism with an exclusive diet of meat and hot water.

Sun-Baths in Summer N the bathing beaches everywhere, bathers secure the advantage of sun-bathing for parts of their bodies. If you will go to a little trouble ~t home, you can often arrange a sun-bath which will enable you to go the ocean-bathers one better. You can secure the great advantage of a sun-bath without clothing. Sometimes this can be done by lying on the floor in the full rays of the sun and near an open window. Sometimes you can arrange an enclosure on the roof of your house or in the backyard, where the full rays of the sun can be allowed to play on all parts of the body. Remember, however, that too much of a good thing is sometimes injurious and this rule especially applies to sunlight. If you take too much sunlight on a particular part of the body, at one time, you will be burnt almost as badly as if you had come in contact with a red-hot .stove. If one has a white skin, five or ten minutes at one time is sufficient to expose one part of the body. If you change your position frequently, so that the full rays do not shine on one part too long a period, you can perhaps stand ten or twenty minutes the first day. By taking a little more sunlight each day you can gradually acquire a coat of tan without being. burnt and when your skin is properly tanned, you can stand any amount of sunlight with distinct benefit.

Time to Play

HIS is the time of year when play is inviting. It calls to you everywhere. There are baseball, tennis, golf-all the various outdoor games that come into being during the Summer. If you have never learned to play, now is a good time to begin. No matter how old you are, the play spirit will be of value. When you forget how to play, you begin slowly but surely to lose the spirit of youth and when you lose this characteristic, old age creeps upon you very quickly. The retainment of the spirit of youth means something more than keeping the joints supple, the body M strong and vital. It means a mental aliveness which is really essential to make life worth while. Youthful spirits not only make life more pleasing but charactero not be afraid to exercise at this time of the year. istics of this sort help you to surmount difficulties.

Sleeping Powders By Dr. Frank

T

HE one thing that everybody ought to know about this subject is that there is no such thing as a safe sleeping powder. Anything that will surely put you to sleep is dangerous. ' The trouble with most sleeping potions is that they contain something which grips the heart, and nobody knows the weakness of that essential organ in his own case: Besides this there is a.further danger, which is that of forming a habit. Once you get into the way of taking something to make you sleep you will have to go on. I t may be a useful devil in an emergency, but like other devils it is easier to ask in than to get out. Most physicians are very careful about giving people something to make them sleep, and only do it as a last resort, and after careful examination. Above all things one should not get into the way of going to the drug store, buying something to make him sleep and keeping it handy. Lord Harcourt, a prominent English statesman, some time ago took a small dose of a comparatively harmless sleeping draught. He went to sleep and never woke up. And very probably on the same day a thousand other mistaken sufferers did the same thing. although their deaths were not reported in the newspapers or were attributed to natural causes. The one safe rule about sleeping potions is to let them alone and never take them except as they are prescribed by a physician. Sleeplessness is a distressing affliction. But it is one of those troubles that rarely can be treated directly. If we would act intelligently we must go to the causes and remove them. One who is just beginning to develop a habit of sleeplessness should be made to realize that once he gets into the grip of insomnia it is liable to go on and become worse and worse. unless he immediately changes his habits of life. One of the commonest causes of sleeplessness and one which it is quite essential to remove if there is to be any cure. is worry. And the one class of people with whom it is most difficult to reason is the tribe of them that worries. You tell them to quit worrying and they look at you with a superior smile or repulse you with a gesture of impatience. What do you know about it? You simply don't understand! I t is all well enough for you to talk, but if you had to bear what they had to

C'rane

bear you would not prate about quitting worry. I t never seems to occur to these people that worrying simply makes them worry more, and they regard it almost as an insult if you insist that worry is a demon that any mind can grapple with and banish if it will exercise its will power and ordinary intelligence. Just how to stop your worrying of course no one can tell you, because your trouble is made up of such an infinity of details and complications. All that can be done is to lay down certain general principles, which you must apply yourself. if you have sense enough and self-control enough. One important element in the worry cure is fresh air. Be out of doors as much as possible during the day. and at night sleep in a room where the windows are open. The microbe of worry thrives in enclosures. Another remedy for worry is to go away. Sometimes this is not possible but it is possible oftener than people imagine. There are more important things in life than your petty little conventionalities and duties. and one of these important things is your own health. If your nerves are all frazzled and your soul in a state of continual irritation it is certainly better to cut your stick and run than to sit around and bedevil other people. You must get physically fit. Nothing like robust health can stand against the pin pricks of annoyance. Another remedy is good and suitable food. Find out the kind of food you ought to eat and the kind you should let alone, and follow your intelligence and not your appetite. Get physically tired. Do not go to bed till you are sleepy. And by the same token get up when you wake up. Let bed be identical in your mind with sleep. and not with day dreaming. Often when you cannot sleep. if you will get up and change your night clothing and air the bed. and possibly take a warm bath. it would drive away the nervousness. Keep your feet warm and your pillow high. Very often something to eat just before going to bed helps matters. A fairly warm glass of milk with many' is a soporific. Take no tea or coffee after midday and let all alcoholic drinks alone. ' Above all, clean all the anger. malice, hate and despair out of your mind before you lay your body on your bed. And it may be stated in closing that those who are able to make a sincere prayer before retiring have a distinct advantage over others.

My "Raw Food" Baby By Mrs. R. M. Cassiday HY i a cook? If th average human b in can live omfortably n fre h fruit, alad and other uncooked food during the warm umm r day, why, with a littl careful election a to mor oily nut and fruit, can't he live on raw food during the cold r winter month ? a child I had an inatiable appetite for nut, rai in , banana, dri d fig , apricot and prune a well a all kind of fre h fruit. I alway imagin d if I could have all of them I wanted I wouldn't car about cooked food, 0 wh n my eighteen month old on p r i tently r fu ed cook d food uch a bread, oup, egg, cereal or cu tard , I felt a certain amount of ympathy for him and b gan hunting around for ome kind of raw food that he could eat.

WE have seen some very wonder-

ful babies but never one easier to look at than this little son of Mrs. Cassiday, who tells in this story how she is raising him on raw food. The publication of a story of this kind, which is an interesting and instructive ~perience, does not mean that the Editor holds that exactly this regimen would suit all babies. Neither do we hold that it would not. Many. however, will question the use of bananas and raw carrots in the diet of a two-year-old child. In emphasizing, however, the use of uncooked foods such as are suitabll", appetizing and digestible, we feel that we are on solid ground. The curse of modem life is denatured food. Raw food is natural food. whether for children or adults. You'll find no scurvy or "rickets" among raw food children.

We were being introduced to the crowd.

My opponent ducked his head and drew back his lips in a forced grin which disclosed his toothless gums. "Here," continued the referee, "i a tranger in our mid t. 'Young Lewis' of ew York." gain there came a burst of applause, but this time not 0 uproarious. I was an untried fighter; and it wa up to me to make good. They had faith in "Hippo," and hoped for the best. All this I could make out in their cheering. 'Ve went to our corners, our glove were examined, a few in tructions were whispered in our ear , and we strode out into the middle of the ring. We touched hands' in a perfunctory fa hion; and the fight wa on. It was not for nothing that "Hippo" had warned me of tIle "Battler' " ru hing tactic. Xo. ooner had our hand touched, than he wa at me with a whirlwind of blows. I blocked and covered up to the best of my ability, but still they rocked me from ide to side. "Eat 'im up! Kill him!" the crowd houted as I squirmed into a clinch and felt the heaying of his great che t against mine. "I'll put yer to sleep, yer damn hobo!" he whispered hotly in my ear. "Keep me waitin', will yer? I'll show yer!" trong hands parted u -the .referee had broken the clinch. gain he rushed; but now, in tead of tanding my ground and covering up, I retreated lowly. All thi time I had not delivered one blow-no, I had all I could do to ward off the terrific hower of punche which rained on me. Round and round the ring it went-he pursuing and I retreating; he forcing the fighting and I dancing back out of danger-till the cro" d grew tired of it. "Why don't yer stand up and fight?" they yelled at me. "You're yeller-that's what ail yer! A hell of a fighter you are!" t la t the bell ounded, and I walked to my corner amid t a storm of his es. "Get your man to fight, 'Hippo'!" they cried. "What's thi ~ ou're handin' us for a fighter?" But he only an wered them b~ a waye of his hand, and whi pered to me; "You're doin' fine, Kid. Ke pit up. Don't let them yap bother yer none." And I at back Ii tie lyon the stool breathing the cool air into my lung and re ting mind and body for the next three minutes of hell that awaited m . Again the bell sounded, and we were on our feet. Again he ru hed, and again I lipped away from him. Around and around the ring it went, till finally he stopped short in his tracks and dropped hi hand to his sides. "I ain't playin' tag!" he cried. "If ~'ou want to fightwhy, fight! But I ain't playin' tag-it's mo. t too rough." There came a delighted roar of laughter from the crowd. I lost my head and stepped up to him. For a moment it wa a lugging match, pure and implepeople were tanding up on their eat , yelling like mad. I felt the force of his blow shaking me from head to foot. I knew that I was getting the wor t of it, and started backing away from him. uddenly a sickelung pain shot through my brain. I felt my body leave the ground and fly backwards. Darkne enshrouded me; and, as though from ~moth I' world,

Physical Culture I heard "Hippo" cry faintly: "God, it's a knockout!" omeone was counting: "One-two-three." Why were they counting 0 lowly? What did it all mean? Why was I lying on the floor? "Four-five-S1'~seven," counted tI~e voice. With a great effort I rose on one knee and tried to fix my eyes on the distant mountains. They eemed to be turning over and over, like stones falling through space. "E1'ght," aid the voice. Gathering all my trength, I taggered to my feet. As I did so, I felt a cool breeze pa s my face. The "Battler" had mi ed my jaw by the fraction of an inch and spun around on his heels from the force of his own blow. There came the tinkling of a bell as from a great di tance. I felt tron'" arms about me, and knew that I was being carried to my corner. How they worked over me-wa. hin'" out my bleeding mouth, spoJ;lging me off, and bringing back my en es in that short minute-it is hard to tell. But they accomplished it omehow; and the next round found me 'ery weak, but with a teady thinking head. In vain did the "Battler" envelope me in blow - I covered up, and lived under them all. Indeed I regained my strength by the eventh round, and wa giving him as good a he sent. In the eighth, he was tiring fast; I could stagger him with straight lefts to the face. oon I began to take the aggressive, and drove him about the ring with springy punches from the shoulder. Hi trength eemed to fall away from him like an old garment; his blows lacked steam. In the ninth, he took a long drink out of a bottle, and, when the bell rang, came on with hi old time rush. But I covered up, and it oon passed. Then I drove him around the ring; and the crowd cheered me on to finish him. Three times I floored liini; three time.s he taggered to hi feet-weak but indomitable. In the tenth, he again took a drink out of the bottle. But so little good did it do him, that, when I idestepped his ru h, he fell weakly to hi knee. He took the count of nine, and 1'0 e with blood treamin rr down hi chin and trickling in little rivulets over hi hairy che t.

Damning Evidence Against Vaccination By Bernarr Macfadden

T

HE advocates of vaccination remind me of a lecturer on hypnotism. Holding up a white flag he said to his audience: "This is a black flag. It may look white to you, but it is black." "No! no!" protested the audience. "Yes! yes!' replied the lecturer. "It's black and I can prove it's black." But his proof was a list of his credentials. He was a graduate of the royal college of somewhere. His auditors had heard of this great institution. Therefore they bowed down to the edict of the lecturer. So it is with the advocates of vaccination. They point to their authority from the royal college of something or other. They refuse to answer questions or to debate. It is beneath their dignity. "Vaccination protects one from smallpox because it does." That is sufficient -at least to the vaccinating doctor. As .far back as 1908 there was sufficient information as to the influence of vaccination in Japan to cause any civilized nation governed by an intelligent, just people, to stop vaccination. For twenty years ending in 190a figures from dependable statistics proved that Japan had more smallpox and a larger smallpox mortality than any civilized country in the world during that same period. Japan was then the most vaccinated country in the world. Vaccination was compulsory. People were vaccinated and revaccinated, and yet during that period 171,500 people .acquired smallpox; 48,000 died from smallpox. And remember that all these victims of smallpox were vaccinated and revaccinated. If vaccination protects one from smallpox, why did 171 ,500 acquire the disease? And why the mortality record of 28 per cent. among these cases? These figures are from official statistics supplied by the director of Sanitarium Bureau of 48

the Department of Home Affairs of Tokio. In the Philippine Islands the deaths from smallpox during the year 1919 were 44,488. The sanitary affairs of the country are controlled by the medical men of the United States Army. This means compulsory vaccination for everybody. And yet there were 44,488 deaths during 191 9 ! Great Britain might be termed the. least vaccinated country in the civilized world. Vaccination there is not compulsory, yet in this country, with a greater population there were only 28 deaths during the year 191 9. Vaccination will not bear the light of a clear analysis. Those who believe in. this vile practice cannot defend it before an intelligent audience. Figures don't lie. The statistics of the medical men themselves prove vaccination to be a monumental fraud. We therefore condemn vaccination. First, because it materially increases the tendency toward smallpox, as is evidenced by the experience of (a) Japan, as furnished by the statistics of that country; (b) by the evidence as furnished by the Philippine Islands since vaccination has been in vogue in that country; (c) by a comparison of the number of cases in the Philippine Islands during 1919 with the number of cases in England, where vaccination is not compulsory, during the same year. Second, because vaccination directly causes a number of deaths in excess of that which smallpox is supposed to produce without vaccination. Third, it is now admitted by many of the ablest physicians and scientists that . the constitutional taint produced by vaccination causes a tendency towards all pusforming diseases like catarrh, consumption, pneumonia, etc.

Of course you know that old story of the man in jail who called up his lawyer and told him about his arrest. "But they can't put you in jail for that," said the lawyer. "But I azn in jail." protested the man. The new version of this story is that of the vaccination victim who later became a smallpox victim-"But you have been vaccinated," said the doctor; "they can't put you in the pest-house with smallpox," "But here I am," said the patient: 'Tve got the smallpox, and I azn in the pest-house." All of which is pertinent to certain well-known phases of vaccination history. "Notwithstanding the fact that Prussia was the best vaccinated country in Europe, its mortality from smallpox in the epidemic of 1871 was higher (69,839) than any other northern state,"Quoted from the Ninth Edition of the Encyc1ope:lia Britannica. Also: "The evidence as to re-vaccination on a large scale comes from the army. The death rate from smallp:>it in the German army, in which all recruits are revaccinated, was sixty per cent more than among the civil population of the same age. The Bavarian contingent, re-vaccinated without exception, had five times the death rate from smallpox in the epidemic of 1870-71 that the Bavarian civil population of the same ages had." But why did the Tenth Edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica contain a different story, contradicting the article by Dr. Charles Creighton? See if you can find out why I

Hydrotherapy and the .Denatured Naturopath (Continued from page 54)

they specially condemned the use of arsenic or mercury in the treatment of "Oh, the malady under discussion. well," broke in the oracle impatiently, "what do those ignoramuses know about it? obody with any sense would in thi day and time attempt to treat syphilis without the intravenous injection of arsenic or mercury in some form. Hydrotherapy is merely an adjuvant to that." "Yet the historic founder of hydrotherapy. Vincenz PrieSsnitz, treated all the patients of every kind who came to him wit~out the aid of drugs. did he not?" I counter«:<J. "Priessnitz," sneered the medical· practitioner of hydrotherapy, "was a very insignificant small potato as compared with WiDternitz, who developed hydrotherapy on a scale never dreamed of by Priessnitz." William Winternitz. the subject of this laudation, wa a wealthy and powerful Viennese urgeon. who after visiting Graefenberg and learning from Priessnitz the secret of the water-eure, Came home and housed ii in more s'pa6io(lS and opulent quarters' than "the ;'Graefenberg establi hme~t. blrautiful and imposing as tbat was at the time of Priessnitz's death. Like other adherents of the Allopathic School, Winternitz never abandoned his drug and surgical practice-on which he had amassed bis great wealth-for hydrotherapy, but merely annexed the latter as an "adjuvant" of the former; and this is probably what our medical friend meant by "developing hydrotherapy;" and in this sense he was quite right in saying it was along line "never dreamed of by Priessnitz"nor by any other genuine naturopath. Winternitz, however, in his day freely acknowledged his debt to the master of Graefenberg, and was not ashamedwith all his medical knowledge and skill -to it at the feet of the Silesian peasant and learn about hydrotherapy, as did many others of the most eminent physicians of that time in England and on the Continent. (See Metcalf's "Life of Prie snitz.") The next man whom I interviewed I approached much more hopefully than the first, since I had been informed that he was not only a skilled hydrotherapi t, but an intelligent and bona-fide naturopath. Such had been his early faith and trllining. I learned, but the environment in which I found him was not calculated to preserve that faith in its original integrity. He was employed by a large insuranc company in the downtown business ection to give hydropathic treatment to its officers and employes, to keep them "fit" for their jobs. A native Swiss, this naturopath had inherited the tradition of Arnold Rickli. and had studied hydrotherapy under William Winternitz, the fir t-hand disciple of Priessnitz. For several years however, he had been a

naturalized American citizen and a practicing hydropath of New Jersey, where he had establi hed valuable allopathic connections, who ent many patients to his private practice, and through whom he had secured his present lucrative post with the insurance company. "I would be a base ingrate to slam the medical men," he said very frankly, and I was forced to concede that under the circumstances that would be both bad business policy and bad taste. I saw quite plainly that our Swiss naturopath had had to wrestle with the old, old probl~m of trying to "serve tw:o masters;" and as I found him a very amiable, courteous gentleman, I was not disposed to render harsh judgment because he had made the all too frequent choice of abandoning the less profitable one at the moment. The allopathic master in this case, however, was not content with mere abstinence from adverse criticism; and I soon discovered that this erstwhile naturopath had quickly passed from condoning to embracing allopathic. here ies. This came out in the discussion of hydrotherapy as applied to venereal diseases, wherein he affirmed his belief in germs as a primary cause of disease; pooh-poohed the treatment of cOntagious diseases-especially syphilis-by natural methods of cure; and extolled medical theory and practice in general, and medical practitioners in particular, as being far superior to those of his own, perhaps I should say his diamDned. School of Healing. "When I go into the cramped, illequipped, frequenily dirty quarters of the naturopatbs," exclaimed the naturopathic defender of Allopathy, "and compare them with those of the medical world; and then contrast the ignorant, narrow-minded men I meet there with the broad-minded scientists of the Regular School, I must confess the outlook for aturopathy is not encouraging." He then launched into personal criticism of certain naturopaths of New York.City, which was apparently an answer to their personal criticism of him, as I inferred from the following speech: "They call me a ature-fakir, because of my association with the Regulars, and because they are jealous of my success and my good p0sition here," he said with a sarcastic smile. "I think I should rather call you a denatured naturopath," I returned smilingly, and was rewarded by a hearty laugh. As I surveyed the well-appointed offices of our denatured naturopath in the headquarters of his wealthy employer, equipped with the latest hydropathic appliances, electric bake-ovens, etc.. all new and shiny. I could understand his recoil from the poorer quarters of struggling naturopaths still fighting for popular recognition against heavy odds. I was convinced also that he did good hy-

dropathic work, and felt it a pity that any of it should be nullified by its unholy alliance with allopathic remedies: Next I betook me to a Water Cure practitioner on the East Side whO', I was informed, had learned msart in Germany; was also one of the oFisinal naturopaths of this city, a real old-fashioned Nature Cure doctor. Surely now I would get the pure gospel of Naturopathy-uncontaminated by allopathic.infiuences! I found him on the first floor of a modest-looking apartment house, with his various hydropathic apparatus, and manipulative couches of one kind and another, occupying several rooms. He car· ried a distinctive German name, and spoke with a distinctive German accent, though I learned from him that he had been in this country many years. He still wore the frightened, hunted look that many of our hyphenated citizenry took on during the war. He. admitted me with an air of non-eommittal reserve, whi<f!i 'gradyally wore away as he became' c. ILv(n~m missi9.n was a friendly one. : ·He. . owed. me through his 'establishment, and: de.. -;c. ." monstrated the' .various ; hydro}) thic ' .. appliances.

Another important effect of the electr~ magnetic currents is the liberation in the system of more oxygen and ozone through the splitting up of molecules of water into hydrogen, oxygen, and ozone, by the electricity thus generated. Only when I inquire<! about his hydropathic treatment of syphilis did the round, bland face of the German doctor resume its wonted expression of wariness. "I never treat doze ca e ," he said with decision. "I tink only de Allopath doctors should treat dem." "But why?" I asked. "Because only de allopaths have lice1l8e to treat contagious diseases in dis country," he said, "and believe. me, I've had enough of trying to practice widout license in dis town!

the Cure of Syphilis

By R. Lincoln Graham, "'hen we enter the field of the 1.lse of water a a curativ agent. we take a long step toward securing an exact science. With the use of drugs and the knife we remain in the field of probabil"ities, depending almost exclusively upon the phy iologieal outcome of our treatments. The physiological outcome depends upon s) very many factors-upon the characteristics, age, sex, mentality, functional activity, etc.-that the practice of medicine and surgery is in truth an Art, depending upon Science. This is the reason for the ucce s of certain physicians and the failure of others. On the other hand Hydrotherapy is capable of exerting physical as well as physiological effects, and the physical laws rarely vary. "ith the physical laws prominent in mind, the plus and minus in curing di ea e can be applied with practically po itive results in every di ea ed condition, and we can thus e cape the probable or peculative re ults that medicine and urgery afford. The general principle of Hydrotherapy are imple and few. "ith a complete under ~nding of them they can be applied to any condition of disease without recour e to expen ive apparatus or in trumcnts. When in general practice. I found tile ice-box, the hydrant and the water kettle upplied all the nece sary outfit, and frequently treated forty to ixty cases of illne a day at the homes of the pati nts with no other outfit than what one would find in the cheapest tenement. In fact the very implicity of application of

"And do ~'ou giYe no hydropathic treatment, except the Epsom baths?" I a. ked. "Oh. :,¡es. that come in the econd part of the treatment. After we have rid the :" tem of mo t of the poi on, in the manner de cribed, and the patient is on the upward climb, we employ any, or all of the timulating water applications, such as shower, cold plunge or affu ion, blitzguss, etc. The therapeutic effect of water i two-fold- edatiYe and stimulatiYe, depending on the method of appl~'­ ing it. The edative effect, which we get from compre es, packs, and continuou immer ion, i indicated in all acute trouble; wherea the (imlllative effect of all the more rigorou and heroic cold applications is aimed at whereyer we have a chronic or sluggi h condition to deal with."

water has a soothing psychical effect on the sufferer in contrast to the impression made by intricate and cumbersome outfits. ';Yater is water, whether the container be a tub, a towel, or a coil, and the action we de ire is from the water and not fro:n the container. However no one can become a successful user of water in the treatment of di ease unless one learns to observe the efforts of nature to correct the results of disease. Perhaps before going any further it would be advisable to give an illustration so that this last statement may be properly understood. In all eruptive diseases, mea les, chicken-pox, scarlet fever, smallpox, nature in her efforts to throw off the disease calls upon the skin to excrete the infection. This shoulcl be our guide. I have often put a patient through the complete stage' of carlet fever in twelve hour b:,' expo ing him to a ten hour' dry hot pack. with drinking water to promote the weat or activity of the sweat glands. In other words, the skin i the fir t organ of excretion in eruptive diseases that nature calls upon to eliminate the disease, and t.he indications are in these conditions to sweat the patient till all the infection is eliminated, and when completely eliminated the disease does not exi t. While on this subject, I would call attention to the grave consequences to the kidney when they are called upon to eliminate the poisons that the skin ha been unable to excrete. Following a sweat of five to ten hours there will not

be even trace of albumin in the carlatina patient, in contrast to the nephritis almost constant in these conditions. The u e of water are in three forms\'apor, that i , steam; fluid, that i , water as we under tand it, and olid; or ice. The effects of water are physical,. and physiological. Phy iological effects are both direct and reflex. The physical effects are osmotic, thermal, and electrical. These are constant and have practically no variance. The physiological effects are congestive, anaemic, functional, and chemical. Let us define these action. Osmotic i that action due the pres ure of fluids.

A Wild Man once lived in the forest. He had no fear of man or beast. club with which he fought his enemies of the jungle. His rough and active life in the open gave him the strength of the beasts themselves. He was a superman in health and strength. But who wants to be a wild man?

He carried a mighty'

The Modern Man There are men in our very midst today enjoying the same abundance of health and strength. They are not of the wild man type, however. They are men of intellect, who have become leader of indu try. They realize that brains are e ntial, but brains are of no value if placed in a weak body with sluggish blood circulation, or troubled with vanous disorders of the vital organs.

The Miracle Man It took the wild man years of active out-door life to attain his strength. How then, can a business man acquire this same strength when his days are pent in an office? One year ago a famous musUian traveled from Toronto, Canada, to su Earle E. Liederman. This musician was most popular throughout Canada. People came miles to hear him. He was wealthy, but he was unhappy. He was a physual weakling. He said he was forced to work nine hours a day, so he had no time for athletus. lIe asked Mr. Liederman if anything GOuld be done for him. Mr. Liederman asked if he would give twenty mimltes time each day for three months-twenty minutes in his own home. The musician we"t back home with Mr. Liederman's famous apparatus and one week later the first lesson in "Progressive Muscular Development" reached him. Today he is the champion weight lifter in his county and his earning capacity has almost doubled.

What Kind of a Man Are You? Do you arise in the morning full of life and ambition for the day before you? an you feel the thrill of life pul ing throu~h your veins? an you finish a hard day's work stIli feeling full of pep and vitality? Do you have the deep, full chest and the brawny arms of an athlete? If not, you are not the man you were meant to be. How would you like to increase your arms one full inch in just 30 days, and your chest two full inches in the same length of time? But that's not all. That's only the foundation. From then on you will build up an armor plate of muscle both in ide and out that will fire you with ambition, giving the spring to your step ilnd flash to your eye that only an athlete can know. This is what I promise to do for you. Come on then and make me prove it.

On leaving the sickroom he found the cowman anxiou l,v waiting. "Doc.. is he goin' to live?" asked the angui hed 1m band. "I am very sorry to have to tell you that your wife has but a few hours to live." With downcast eyes the hu band eemed in a brown study for a moment. Then with a deep sigh, he heaved his shoulder and thru t his hands into his tr u er. ' pockets a he asked, "Well, Doc., what the hell's to become f me?" ix ~'ears of hard riding and meagre f at Fort 'forgan sufficed to convince Dr. "ork that he had not found there the front entrance to a succ sful career, o he moved to Pueblo, "The Pittsnur~ of the West," as its citizens proudly proclaim it, a bu y manufacturing city and second only to Denver as a railroad and commercial center. Here he quickly made such a name for himself that he was elected in due time President of the Colorado State Medical Society, being the youngest man ever selected to fill that office. For a number of years he was a member of the Colorado State Board of Medical Examiners. For ten years he was a member and President of the Colorado State Board of Health. In 1912 he was elected Pr ident of the American Medico-Psychological ociety, an as pciation of medical specialists of the nited States and Canada. At the present time he is the President of the American Medical Association. So distinguished a professional career should have satisfied any reasonable man, but it merely whetted Dr. Work's appetite for more. In stature, temperament, methods, the new Postmaster-General is the antithesis of his predecessor. Dr. Work is six fcet tall, and 0 well built that his assurance that he actually weighs 196 pounds almo t sound exaggerated. He wears a clo ely cropped mu tache that once wa brown, but which is now more incliner! to be gray like hi abundant hair. His expression is serene, but grave: a phyician's long as ociation with suffering and death is not calculated to promote levity. At sixty-two Dr. Work looks the personification of vigorous health, as a man should who all his life has faithfully ob erved the immutable law which It i safeguard ph,v ical well-being. omething of a hock, therefore, to hear from his lip uch heresies as Ul e: "I never took any cxerci e that I did not have to.

Can You Guess This Man'sAge? See if You Can Tell Within 25 Years; the Author Couldn't; But He Stuck With Harry Bradstreet Until He Revealed His Method of Staying Young By WILLIAM R. DURGIN USED to pride myself on guessing people's ages. That was before I m t Harry Bradstreet, whose age I missed by a quarter-century. But before I tell you how old he really is, let me say this: My meeting-up with Bradstreet I count the luckiest day of my life. For while we often hear how our minds and bodies are about 50% efficient-and at times feel it to be the truth-he knows why. Furthermore, he knows how to overcome it-in five minutes-and he showed me how. This man offers no such bromides as setting-up exercises, deep-brea thing, or any of those things you know at the outset you'll never do. He uses a principle that is the foundation of all chiropractic, naprapathy, mechano-therapy, and even osteopathy. Only he does not touch a hand to you; it isn't necessary. The reader will grant Bradstreet's method of staying young worth knowing and using, when told that its originator (whose photograph reproduced here was taken a month ago) is sixtyfive years old! And here is the secret: Tu: keeps his spine a half-inch longer than it ordinarily would measure. Any man or woman who thinks ~ust one-half inch elongation of the spmal column doesn't make a difference should try it! It is easy enough. I'll tell you how. First, though, you may be cunous to learn why a full-length spine puts one in an entirely new class physically. The spinal column is a senes of tiny bones, between which are pads or cushions of cartilage. othing in the ordinary activities of us humans stretches the spine. So it "settles" day by day, until those once soft and resilient pads become thin as a safety-razor blad&and just about as hard. One's spine (the most wonderfully designed shock-absorber known) is then an unyielding column that transmits every shock straight to the base of the brain. Do you wonder folks have backaches and headaches? That one's nerves pound toward the end of a hard day? Or that a nervous system may periodically goes to pieces? For every nerve in one's body connects with the spine, which is a sort of central switchboard. When the "insulation", or cartilage, wears-down and flattens-out, the nerves are exposed, or even impinged-and there is trouble on the line. ow, for proof that sublaxation of the spine causes mostof the ills and ailments which spell "age" in men or women. Flex your spine-"shake it out"-and

they will disappear. You'll feel the difference in ten minutes. At least, I did. It's no trick to secure complete spinal laxation as Bradstreet does it. But like everything else, one must know how. No amount of violent exercisewilldoit;not even chopping wood. As for walking, or golfHARRY BRADSTREET.

When you.con!'ult your physician and he prescribes high frequency (Violet Ray)' treatInC'fits for an ailment, you accept his judgmE'nt.

An interesting point of similarity between an infant. a calf and the adult who needs a second weaning is a common insistence on the idea that every individual has an inalienable right to go his own gait, whether he can walk in a straight line or not-which, of course, none of them can. Incidentally, thinking straight is an inseparable concomitant of walking straight.

How A ew Kind of Clay emade My C mplexi n • 1 3 Min t For reasons which every woman will understand, I have concealed my name and my identity. But I have asked the young woman whose pictures you see here to pose for me, so that you can see exactly how the marvelous new discovery remakes one's complexion in one short half hour. OULD hardly believe my eyes. Just thirty minutes before my face had been blemished and un ightly; my skin had been coarse, sallow and lifeless. • ow it wa actually transform d. I wa amazed when J saw how beautiful my complexion had b comehow soft its texture, how exqui ite its coloring, Why, the blemishes and impurities had beel~ lifted right away, and a charming, mooth, clear skin revealed underneath I What was this new kind of magic?

I

You see, I never really did have a pretty complexion. _1y kin is very s nsitive. It always used to be so coarse and rough that [ hated to use powder, Sometime pimples and eruptions would appear overnight--and as for blackhead , [ never could get rid of them I

stitled them, giving up the bits of dust and the accumulations that had bored deeply beneath the surface. It was a feeling almost of physical relief; e,'ery inch of my face seemed stirred suddenly into new life and fervor. At nine-thirty I removed the Domino Complexion layand, to my utter astonishment, found that I had a brand newcomplexion I Hidden bea Ilty had actually been revealed I Every blackhead had vanished; the whole texture of the skin had been transformed into smooth, clear I

To be p rfectly frank with you, I tried everything there was to try. [ greeted each new thing with hope-but hope was soon abandoned as my skin became only more harsh and colorle-. Finally I gave up everything in favor of massage. But uddenly I found that tiny wrinkles were beginning to show around the eyes and chin--and I assure you J gave up rna sage mighty quick. Wasn't there anything that would clear my complexion, that would make it soft and smooth ana firm? Wasn't there anything I coul" do without wasting more time and morc money? It was v ry discouraging and I was tempted more than once to give it up --espedally when I saw that after all my elforts my skin was more aull and coarse than evrr b fore. In fact, on one very disappointing occasion I firmly resolved never to use anything but soap and water on my face again. But then something very wonderful happened-and, beinl: a woman, 1 promptly changed my mind I

Why I Changed My Mind Did you know that the outer layer of the skin, called the epidermi•. is constantly dying and being replaced by new cells? I didn't-until I read a very remarkable announcement. That announcement ma"e me change my mind. It explained, simply and clearly, how blackheads. pimples and nearly all fadal eruptions are caused wh n the dead skinscales and bits of "ust clog the pores, Impurities form in the stitled pores-and the results are soon noticeable. The announcement went on to explain how scientists had discov red a m:uvelous clay. which, in only on application, drew dust. dirt and other impurities and harmful accumulations to the surface. This Domino omplexion la)r, in only a half-hollr. actually lifted away the blemishes and the impuriti s. And when it was removed the skin beneath was found to be soft. smooth. clear and charminRt an you blame me for wanting to try this wonderful discovery on my own blemished complexion?

My Extraordinary Experience With Domino Complexion Clay 1 won't borr you with details. ufllce to say that 1 applied the Domino omplexion Clay f had read about to my face one evening at nine o'dock and settled myself comfortably for a half-hour of reading. Soon I was conscious of a cool. drawing sensation. In a few moments the clay on my face had dried into a fragrant mask. And as it dried and hardened there was a wonderful tingling feeling. I could actually feel the millions of tiny pores breathing, freeing themselves of the impurities that had

delicatelycolored beauty. Ish a II nevedorget myextraordinary experience with Domino omplexion Clay. It accomplished in a half hOI'" what other preparations had notaccompHshed in years. \ ith gentle firmn s it drew out every impurity from the stitled pores and revealed beneath a skin of exqui lte texture and deHcate coloring. I would never have believrd it possible, and it is because it did it for me, because I actualll' had this wonderful experience, that 1 consented to write this story for publication.

Domino House Made This Offer To Me The formula from which the amazing Domino omplexion lay is made was discovered by the chemists of the Domino House. I have heen asked to state here, at the end of my story, that Domino Hou8C will send without any money in advance a 3.50 jar of Domino omplexion Clay to anyone r~C1uesting it. If I would write my story for publication the Domino House agreed to accept only $1.95 for a $3,SO jar from my readers, You, as my reader, should not miss this opportunity, I am sure that the marvelous Domino Complexion lay will do for you what it has done for me. It is gllaranteed to do so, and a special deposit of 10.000 in the State Bank of Philadelphia backs this Ruar.ntee. Your money \ViII be promptly refunded if you are not delighted with results and return what is left of Domino omplexion lay within 10 days. Do not send any monev with the coupon.

who i the trongest man in America. But as everybody cannot be the tronge t or the be t developed, there will be lectur by competent authoritie on how to keep fit. Everyone can do that. One of the way i through the medium of ports. There will be a swimming pool in which wimming and diving contests will bc held, open to elas e of young men, youn" WOol n. boy and girl. An instru tor will demon trate the easie t method of learning to swim. There will al 0 be runnin", jumping, lifting and dancing conte t.. For the particular benefit of those who have failed to keep fit there will be living examples of phy ical culture cumtive methods. Men and women who have

been given up by phy icians as hopelessly incurable and have afterwards regained perfect health by the practice of neverfailing ph.'¡sical culture methods will be on hand to tell how they have cheated death and how others may do the same by following their cxample. One of the thing to be exemplified will be the curative value of fa ting. A bona fide fast lasting the entire ix days of the Ph~. ical Culture Exhibition will be conducted at Madison Square Garden under the direction of a physician and Bernarr Macfadden. Another great therapeutic agency to be exemplified in actual operation will be the exhibit of 01' Doctor Cow. With a number of her isters. prize winners from

the famou herds of America, she will be right there in the Garden tran. forming hay and grain and things into milk which will be drawn in full view of the all<Ft'nce and fed 00 the vel') young .ladie¡ and gentlemen enter d in the babv how.

My Raw Food Baby (Continued from page '!7)

and cried for more. For three days he ate a large saucerful at each 2:00 P.M. meal and I immediately noticed more "pep" and ingenuity in his disposition, a well as an improvement in the movements of his bowel . At this, time I began reducing the amount of milk he received at 10:00 A.M. and 7:00 P.M., gradually advancing the time of the 2:00 P.M. feeding toward 12:00 and the 6:00 P.M. toward 5:00. so that he would eventually be getting three meals a day in tead of four. Many children eat three meal a day long before they are eighteen months old. When he began eating carrot he did not care for so much milk at that meal naturally. "hen he tired of carrot, I craped ripe apple and a little celery in with it. ometime he would pick string beans from the vines, chew them up and go around for hours sucking them, finall~' pitting out the pulp. Again he would pick beet leaves and chew the talk. or young onions or rhubarb. I always let him do it, simply taking the precaution to wash them before he put them in his mouth, as the fresh green stuff contains natural salts which the body requires, e pecially when one is fed mainly on cow's milk. When cutting a tooth the baby usually refu ed solid food for a while and went on a liquid diet. When the tooth appeared he wanted his mw vegetables and ~I'aham wafers again, in increased quanti tie . for a few days. I gave him fresh fruits such as figs, peaches, apricots, pears and prunes whenever I could be sure they were sun ripened and have never h'l10Wn them to hurt him. They are excellent laxatives. When he was twenty-three months old, the baby cut his e~'e teeth, the 130 t of the first sixteen. About that time he began eating dried prunes and figs cut fine, al <> a lice or two of ripe banana. I had to cut the dried fruits, for when he was very

hungry he would swallow them whole. his daily schedule at this time was: 8 oz. milk. I eut dried prune or fig. 2 graham ''.'Ilrers or 1 muffin. 8:30" 5 oz. prune or orange juice. 10:30" 1 oz. milk. 1:00 P.M. 8 oz. milk. 2 graham war rs or I muffin. 4 to 8 cooked prunes or saucer of carrot salad. 4:00 .. 5 {lZ. pr\lIle' or orange juice. 5:00" 8 oz. milk. 2 graham WllrCrS or muffin. 6:30

uts presented a problem. He began a king for them before he was twentythree month old, but I hesitated to give him an~¡. thinking they might be too heavy. Finally I gave him some walnut. He cried that night after he went to bedan unheard of performance for him-and I never decided whether it was becau e the nuts were 000 coar e, or because they might have been picked a little green. A few weeks later I gave him some chopped almond and it didn't bother him at all, tholl",h he wa n't able to digest the larger piece . o amount of coaxing has ever induced him to eat any kind of breakfast cereal home cooked or prepared. Most of the books on. feeding of. children .say cereals are neces ary. They are not. Personally I detest the slu~hy, mu hy feel and. taste of "rolled oat" steamed two hours in a double boiler, but I enjoy thc rich, nutty flavor of the oatmeal a it comes out of the packnge. I frequently eat it raw, mixed with an equal amount of shredded cocoanut, a little sliced banana and chopped almond. Sometimes I sprinkle raw oatmeal on the baby's carrot salad; he always digests it thoroughly. At twenty-four months the baby went on the regular threc meals a day schedule, with his nap hanged to afternoon. Much greater variety was then po sible, as he had grown to like a few cooked foods.

He still will not touch any kind of soup, meat, cooked vegetable, white hread or toa. t, custard, pudding, cereal or pie, with the exception of apple. I am convinced that none of tho e things i necessary to a healthy child, but am quite sure that orne fresh vegetable and fruit should be eaten each day. Mo t of the children on our street were sick last winter with colds, yet my ba!:.>y escaped, even though he played with the other young ter while they were coughing. Once I thought he was getting a cold, so I gave him some milk of magnesia (the only medicine he has ever taken), diluted hi milk, stopped giving him wafers or muffins, fed him only raw fresh vegetables and he came through without so much as another sneeze. In feeding small children one mil t be extremely careful that fresh fmits and vegetabl are ripe and dried fruits ab olutely pure. ulphur i omelimes u ed in dr~'iilg fruits and while thi' is harml to the average adult, it might irritate a baby's tender lomach.

How I Saved My H The Tragedy of Baldness

-r'

By ALBERT WOODRUFF HE the barber told m m hair was g tting thin J merely miled and let it go at that. \\ hen my wif said, "B rt, J do believ you ar becomin bald," I ga'-e a littl laugh and pa d it off with a je ting r mark. I took the gibes of Illy friend in th same piritand I laughed wh n the con:edian at the th atre mad hi "racks" about candidat for the "bald-headed row." But it wa n't until my busin a ociates commenced to notice that J wa rapidly becoming bald and gray that I worried. For while I wa ju t a rull of p p and vim a I had ever been-while my bl.: ine s jt:dgment wa ju t a k n a ever, yet I worried for fear my a sociate mi h t think of me as heading toward the "ha been" cia . I deve my hair-if it could be cided to try to saved. Then I becam a lave to hair tonics. If a tonic wa new I bought it on i ht. I tried very kind or hampoo that I heard of. I was a victim of the barb r's wil . The money I pent-and all to no purpo . My hair contin'ued to ome out just as r\lst a it ever did before I had tried to stop it. Every time I combed my hair it told the tory.

about the proper care of the hair and scalp. H said that on need not let the hair grow thin and gray. H said that if th hair is falling out or tting gray a r asonable amount of proper are will re tore it, unl one i compl t Iy bald. nd this sam care will keep the hair trong and healthy throughout lif. He spoke of imple, natural and ffective m thods for treating the hair and scalp by following a few law of nature. Then he asually mention d that he was startled at th tr ml'ndous demand that exi ted for hi omprehen ive work. In fact, the first dition of hi tr atis was very quickly sold and a n w edition had to be printed to take care of the orders that were flooding in on each mail. I made up my mind right then that since 1r. Macfadd n had ',Titten the book it was sure to be very practical-and the fact that so many had be n old clearly proved to me that the treati e must be filling a popular demand.

It is intere ting in thi connection to note that a few years back the company held a contest for wives of the men, in which they were ru ked to write letters teUing what they did to make the home life of their bu -men hu band happy and pleasant. The contest produced a number of ideas which proved to be very valuable in guiding the company's nurse and physician. "We never 10 eight of our babies, ther fore, for we find that half the problem of a man's happine s is olved when his home is running right, with a healthy, happ,)' wife and healthy, happy children in it. That, together with an adequate and a ured income goes just about to the root of the whole busines . On that we concentrate. We don't interfere; we don't pry; but we tand ready to help, and we do help. "Of course the arne thing applies quite as much to the men them elves. Our physician i on hand at the company offic at stated tim for con ultation, and Mi Conroy, our nurse, whom the men called the Company Mother, looks alter them like a lot of big boy , the way their own mothers u ed to do. They come to her with their minor ailments, anything from a ore thumb to a toe ache, and he fixe them up. "Some of our problem In thi connection are very difficult. Let me give you one example. A few years ago the wife of one of our men came to me and told me that her hu band was drinking. She wanted me to interfcre. She said that during his spells of drinking he would abuse her and their children, and that the trouble was growing more frequent. I told her that I could not "interfere," unl s he came to hi work under the influence of liquor, but that I would be glad to ee if there wa not a way out. "Can you tell when these pells are coming on?" I ask d. " 'Alway,' he an wered, 'becau e he begins moking cigarettes to exces. After a few days of that, he begins to drink.' " 'The next time you ee it coming,' I told her, 'let me know.' A lew week later he ent me word. I called in our company phy ician and we talked it over. The result of that consultation was that he called at Dugan's home. Dugan came to the door, moking. " 'Why,' said the doctor, 'I was looking for Ca sidy. I thought he lived here.' "'" hereupon Dugan came out and gave him directions as to how to find Cas idYl 'By the way,' said the Doctor, 'You aren't looking very fit yourselC. Feel all right?' " 'Rotten,' said Dugan.

"'Let me look you 0\ er,' aid the Doctor. "So he went into the hou e with him, examined him, expressed him clf a hocked at hi run-down condition, talked to him very strongly about hi health, put him on a diet, pr cribed a trict daily r gimen for him, banned exc ive cigarettes and aU drink, prescribed uitable exerci ,and-in hortscared Dugan into taking care of him elf without once intimating that he knew a thing about tho e drinking pell. More than that, he kept right after him for weeks. He made Dugan come to hi office every few day. And he has had an eye on him ever ince. "The re ult was that Dugan ne\'er drank again. I can't ay that he never will, but he has been ober about two years now. 'What ailed him was that his general condition was bad. Through a wise physician we were able to cure him, and so saved lor ourselves one of our be t men, and traightened out the trouble in a home where thing were beginning to go to wra k and ruin. 'Ye didn't 'interfere,' we didn't u e the mailed fist, though we would finally have found drastic measures necessary-becau e in time he would llave gotten drunk on duty. Dugan was a ick man. It was a problem in phy ical culture. It i a problem in phy ical culture all along the line: and by' ph,), ical culture I mean something that reaches the well being of the whole man, including his body and hi mind. "I recall another instance that will illu trate our more difficult ort of problem. Thi happened some time back, belore we had gotten thing running as well a they are now. One day a bus, driv n by one of our very best drivers, smashed at rush hour into a big limou ine that was moving down Fifth Avenue just ahead of it, in a jam of traffic. We were pre ented by the owner of the limousine with a big bill for damages' and the driver, apparently was due to be presented with his di charge. "But ummary di charge is not popular in thi company. I con idered the man's record, and the more I considered it the more .certain I felt that he would have omething to sa,)' lor him elf. I sent for him. '" ow tell me ju t what happened,' I said. 'How in the world could a man with your record make such a mi take as tI~~

. " 'I ran into them-that's all,' he answered. 'I haven't a leg to stand on. All that remains i for you to di charge me,' " 'But how did it happen?' I persisted. "'I was following them down the avenue, starting when the,)" started and stopping when they stopped. I don't rem mber running into them. I found out what I'd done when people commenced yelling at me." "'Then you weren't thinking about your driving?' I questioned. (Continued on page 84)

'" 0, I gue s I wasn't, but I'm not making cxcu ·cs.' " 'But what were you thinking about?' " 'Oh-just figuring whatI'd do. My wife's sick and ought to be in a ho pital and-' "'Vell, vou can figure out t'be re t of the story. I heard when I finally dug up all the facts. It perfectly demon trate the idea back of this whole bu~iness. Even if we had no sincere intere t in our men and in their welfare, we couldn't afford to have that kind of thing happening. Our men and their families have io be in health. mentally and physically. Every standard of safe service held by thi company depends on that one condition. "Nevertheles , you mu t not interpret that to mean that our intere t in them is imply a disguised elfi hness. The motive of self interest has its place. of cour e. It would be illy to deny that. But I am quite sure it does not have the first place. I like to believe. and I think everybody concerned does believe. that our first motive is one of unadulterated good will toward our men. We enjoy serving them. And in like manner. we also enjoy serving the public and pleasing our clients quite apart from the money they bring us. There is good-will in what we do. It is also sound busines , but we try to keep that end of it incidental and secondary to the motive of good-will, and of the pleasure it gives us to have pleased them with work well done. "Besides making this special effort to be on terms of c10 e wlderstanding with our men, and to have and de r\'e tlleir confidence. the company maintain various enterpri es for their convenience. For instance. we have a restaurant where we serve them good food at a very low cost. In our barber shop they can get a shave for ten cents and a hair cut for a quarter. They have a club room where they can lounge. and it is equipped with billiard tables, musical in truments. and even a radiophone. We have a benefit organization of a thousand members, in which dues of fifty cents a month entitle a member to a death benefit of two hundred dollars, or a sickness benefit of one dollar and fifty cents a day for ixty days. But these features are not unique. Many firms have them. "The unique thing about our organization I have already brought out. I think. It lies in our systematic effort to create good-will. It lies in our effort to create good-will between our men and ourselves, and to create it also between them and the public. It is an application of Christian ethies in business. "A few years ago the newspapers printed a little story about how one day a conductor on one of our busses paid the fare of a young woman who had forgotten her purse; and how a few days later he got a letter from her, on White House stationer:', thanking him for his courtesy,

returning the dime, and signed' fargaret Wil on.' That happened to be a more than ordinarily interesting corroboration of our theory that in dealing with every individual passenger, we ollght to act as if we were entertaining angels unaware. 'Ve are all the time receiving letters calling attention to the courtesy of this or that man, and returning the dime with which he has paid the fare. Our men do thi all the time, though they are required to pay the fare them elves; and it i very eldom indeed that the dime is not repaid. "And health-let me emphasize thishealth springing from conditions of rightliving, is the thing that is back of it and makes it po sible. II our men didn't have stable nerves they never could do it. "I sometimes think, too, that they couldn't do it if tlley were not most of them Iri h. You would be astoni hed to know how great are the odds our men have to struggle against in the sheer effort to keep their tempers and to keep from throwing orne persons out of the busses. The public hasn't been inten ively trained in the elements of courtesy as our men are; consequently our men have to meet ira cible and unrea. onable peoplc a good deal more than half way. It i n't t'asy-not at all easy. I recall one case where a pas enger, after signalling late, was annoyed at being carried past the plare where he wi hed to leave the bus, and deliberately spat in the conductor's fare. Some pas engers have a Ie s direct way of doing' the arne thing by spitting over the sides of the bus, and letting everybody in the line of fire take a chance. Lately we have been putting up signs on the bllsst' IIgge ting that persons who. pit in public are most likely to spread di ease because they are most likely to have it. the implication being that spitting is it elf a sign of di ease. Well persons are not habitual spitters. "Many of our pa. senger, even though their temper may be often a bit crabbed, ar ea y enough for our strong and healthy conductors to get on with. but a few like to tart trouble if they can. Some, for in tance. often uggest to the conductor that he interfere to prevent some flagrant and frank case of spooning going on on the front eat on top. We even get letters • frOID per ons of a Puritanical turn of mind telling us that we hould not permit uch di gract'ful doing on our bu es. But I don't ee it that way. Of course it i a bit unconventional for a young man to make love to a girl in sight of all Fifth Avenue, but it is not unwhole ome. ertainly the young lady i much better chaperoned under such conditions than she would be in more secluded urroundings. a private room for instance. I know of few jobs that give a man a better chance to be a spectator of Human Life and Human Behavior than that of conductor on a Fifth Avenue Bus. "Incidentally. we try to pick men who

New Stomachs for Old In 48 Hours By R. S. Edwards

T

HOUSA DS of people who suffered for years with al1 sorts of stomach . tro~ble are walking around to-day with entirely re-made stomachs-stomachs which have been re-made in from 48 to 72 hours! They enjoy their meals and never have a thought of indigestion, constipation, or any of the serious illnesses with which they formerly suffered and which are directly traceable to the stomach. And these surprising results have been produced not by dnlgs or medicines of any kind, not by foregoing substantial foods, not by eating specially prepared or patented foods of any kind, but by eating the plainest, simplest foods correctly COIllbilledl

These facts were forcibly brought to my mind by Eugene Christian, the eminent Food Scientist, who is said to have successfully treated more than 23,000 people with foods alone.

"Man Is What He Eats" As Christian says, "what we take into our stomachs today, we are tomorrow." Food is the source of all power; yet not one person in a hundred knows the chemistry of foods as related to the chemistry of the body. The result is we are a nation of "stomach sufferers." ,. Christian has proved that to eat good, imple, nourishing food is not necessarily to eat correctly. In the first place, many of the foods which we have come to regard as good are in reality about the worst things we can eat, while others that we regard as harmful have the most food value. But perhaps the greatest harm which comes from eating blindly is the fact that very often two perfectly good foods when eaten at the same meal form a chemical reaction in the stomach and literal1y explode, liberating dangerous poisons which are absorbed by the blood and circulate throughout the system, forming the root of all or nearly al1 sickness, the first indications of which are acidity, fermentation, gas, constipation, and many other sympathetic ills leading to most serious consequences. And yet just as wrong food selections and combinations will destroy our health and efficiency, so wil1 the right foods quickly create and maintain bodily vigor and mental energy. In my talk with Eugene Christian, he told me of some of his experiences in the treatment of disease through food-just a few instances out of the more than 23,000 cases he has on record.

Correct Ea!-ing for Success One case which interested me greatly was that of a young business man whose efficiency had been practically '\Tecked through stomach acidity, fermentation and constipa!ion, resulting in physical sluggishness which was naturally reflected in his ability to use his mind. He was twenty pounds underweight when he first went to see Christian and was so nervous he couldn't sleep. tomach and intestinal gases were so severe that they caused irregular heart action and often fits of great mental depression. As Christian de cribes it he was not ~O per cent e.fficient either me~tally or phYSically. Yet 10 24 hours, by following

hristian's suggestions as to food his constipation was relieved, although he had formerly been in the habit of taking large daily doses of a strong cathartic. In five weeks every abnormal symptom had disappeared-his weight having increa ed 6 lbs. In a~dition to this, he acquired a store of phYSical and mental energy so great in comparison with his former self as to almost belie the fact that it was the same man. Another instance of what proper food combinations can do almost overnight was that of a man one hundred pounds overweight whose only other discomfort was rheumatism. This man's greatest pleasure in life was eating. Though convinced of the necessity, he hesitated for months to go under treatment, believing he. would be deprived of the pleasures of the table. He finally decided, however, to try it out. ot only did he begin losing weight within a few days, regaining his normal figure in a matter of weeks, but al1 signs of rheumatism disappeared, and he found the new diet far more delicious to the taste, and affording a much keener quality of enjoyment than his old method of eating, and wrote Christian a letter to that effect.

A Remade Man at 70 But perhaps the most interesting case that Christian told me was that of a multimillionaire-a man of 70 years .of age, who had been traveling with his doctor for several years in search of health. He was extremely emaciated, had chronic constipation, lumbago, and rheumatism. For more than twenty years he had suffered with stomach and intestinal trouble which in reality was superaciduous secretions in the tomach. The first menus given him were designed to remove the causes of acidity, which was accoinplished almost overnight. And after this was done he seemed to undergo a complete rejuvenation. His eyesight, hearing, taste and al1 of his mental faculties became keener and more alert. He had had no organic trouble-but he was starving to ~eath from malnutrition and decomposition-al1 caused by the wrong selection and combination of foods. Almost immediately after following Christian's advice this man could see results, and after six months he was as wel1 and strong as he ever had been in his life.

Christian's Discovery Now Available for All These in tances of the efficacy of right eating I have simply chosen at random from perhaps a dozen Eugene Chri tian told me of, every one of which was fully as interesting, and they applied to as many different ailments. Surely this man Christian is doing a great work. I know of several instances where rich men and women have been so pleased with what he has done for them that they have sent him a check for 500 or St,OOO in addi· ti?n to the amount of the bill when paying him. There have been so many inquiries from al1 parts of the United States from people seeking the benefit of Eugene Christian's advice and whose cases he is unable to handle personal1y that he has written a

little course of lessons which tells you exactlr what to ~at for health, strength, ani effiCiency. ThiS course is published by The Corrective Eating Society of ew York.

I lost my head at that. With an inarticulate cry, I put my hand over the car. "My God!" Hartley cried, turning very white and upporting himself again t the wall. "My God, It is 'Deacon' Colgate!" For a moment there was ilence in the room, broken only hy the steady ticking of "Hippo's" large silver watch. At la. t I lifted my haltered face out of my hand and looked Hartley in the eyes. " 0, Billy," I answered, "-'Deacon' Colgate is dead." CHAPTER

An hour later Billy and I still sat in the dressing room. V\ e were alone, for "Hippo," with a delicacy which he sometimes exhibited, had left us. "And I thought you were dead and buried years ago," Billy was saying. "'Vhy your name was on the death list of that railroad wreck. Then Roberts wrote me and said that he'd gone to your funeral. Now I find you here, and turned into a pug-a first rate pug, if I know anything about the game--with a different name, and a different face, and-" "And a different soul, Billy," I broke in. "I'm not the same man at all. You're not finding the real 'Deacon' Colgate-just the damaged shell of him." "If it hadn't been for that burn," Billy continued, "I never would have recognized you.

All resi tance had died out of me. I was too tired to waste effort on anything. My blind fur~' in the ring was the last Bare of hatred. My head ached from heavy blow . and I felt that I mu t have rest. I followed Billy out of the dressing-room, as a child might follow his mother. In silence we walked two block or more. Finally we turned in through a gateway, and strolled up a gravel path which led to a small hou e, hiding awa~' ba hfully behind everal tall tr e . Hartley drew out his latch key, and, opening the door, ushered me into a cozy-looking living-room. "You don't mind if I leave you here?" he said. "I want to go up and tell Louise. She'll be 0 glad.

"hile Billy wa gone, I looked about me. Over the mantelpiece was a picture of our fraternity chapter at Columbia. I walked over and glanced up at it. There was the old "Deacon" Colgate: and beside him, with his arm about hi waist, sat Bruce Smythe. At anothcr time thi picture would have rou ed me into a fit of rage, but now I turned my eye ~\Vay with a weary sigh. Even the power to hate was falling from me. Below the picture wa a mirror which ran the length of the mantelpiece. I looked into it-then put my hand before my battered face. There on the wall was the happy healthy face of the old "Deacon" Colgate: and here, staring at me from the mirror like some horrible nightmare, with smashed no e and drooping eyelid, with scarred cheek and bri t1ing hair, was the fighting mask which men called "Young Lewi ."

A Delightful Test To bring you prettier teeth This offers you a ten-day test which will be a revelation to you. It will show you the way to whiter, cleaner, safer teeth. Millions of people of some forty races now employ this method. Leading dentists everywhere advise it. You should learn how much it means to you and yours.

Clouded by a filDl Your teeth are clouded more or less by film. The fresh film is viscous-you can feel it with your tongue. It clings to teeth, enters crevices and stays. Old methods of brushing leave much of that film intact. The film absorbs stains. so the teeth look discolored. Film is the basis of tartar.

How it ruins teeth That film holds food substance which ferments and forms acids. It holds the acids in contact with the teeth to cause decay. Millions of germs breed in it. They, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea. So most tooth troubles are now

traced to that film, and they are almost universal.

Now we cODlbat it Dental science, after long research, has found two film combatants. Many careful tests have proved their efficiency. Leading dentists everywhere urge their daily use. A new-day tooth paste has been created, called Pepsodent. It complies with modern requirements. And these two great film combatants are embodied in it.

Two other effects Pepsodent brings two other effects which authority now deems essential. It multiplies the starch digestant in the saliva. It multiplies the alkalinity of the saliva. That is Nature's neutralizer for acids which cause decay. Send the coupon for a lO-Day Tube and watch these effects for a while. Note how clean the teeth feel after using. Mark the absence of the viscous film. See how teeth whiten as the filmcoats disappear. Then judge the benefits by what you see and feel. You will be amazed.

"NERVES"

A subtle and dangerous mal. ady which is undermining the vitality of the American Nation

By PAUL von BOECKMANN " ERVE "-We hear it everywhere. The physician tells his patient-"It's your erves." nsitive and high- trung women complain of their" erve." , ou e evidence of "Nerves" everywhere-in the street, in the cars, in the theatre, in bu ine s, and especially in your home-right in your own family. \Ve American are a nation of nervous people. Thi is known the world over. Our own erve ~ciali ts admit it. It i cau d by our' Mile-a-Minute" life; the inten ene s of our ature in everything we do. It is making u the mo t pr0lP'e ive nation on earth, but it is also wreckmg our people. Our crowded insane asylums prove it. Medical records prove it. Millions of people have sub-normal 'erve Force, and on equcntly uffer from endle organic and phy ical trouble, which make their lives mi rable. \Vhat is meant by "erves?" By " erve" is meant rYe Exhau tion ( eurasthenia), lack of erve Force. \i hat is erve Force? We might a well ask "What is electricity?" \Ve do not know. It is the ecret of ature. \ e do know that it i the vital force of life, a my teriou en rgy that flow from the nervous sy t m and gives life and energy to every vital organ. ever the nerve which leads to any organ and that organ will cease acting. The wonderful or an we term the ervous System con i t 'of ountle millions of ells. These cell are re ervoir which store erve Force. The amount stored represent our erve Capital. Every organ works incessantly to keep the upplyof erve Force in these cells at a high level, for Life itself depends more upon erve For e than on the food we eat or even the air we breathe. If we unduly tax the nerves through overwork, worry, excitement, or grief, if we ubject the muscular sy tern to ex e ive train, or, in any way, consume more l erve For e than the organs produce, the natural result mu t be Nerve Bankruptcy, in other word, erve Exhaustion, eurasthenia, or U erve." There is but one malady more terrible than erve Exhaustion-its kin, Insanity. Only those who have pa d through a iege of erve Exhaustion can under tand the meaning of this statement. It is HELL; no other word can expre sit. t first, the victim is afraid he will die, and, a it grip him deeper, he i afraid he will not die-so great is hi mental torture. He becom panicstricken and irresolute. ickening nsation of weakne sand helple ne overcome him. He becomes obsessed with the thought of self-destruction. erve Exhau tion i not a malady that comes suddenly. It may be year in developinlt and the decline is accompanied by unrmstakable symptoms, which can readily be recognized. The symptom of Nerve Exhau tion vary according to individual characteri ti ,but the development is usually as follow : FI R T ST E: Lack of energy and endurance; that "tired feeling," e pecially in the back and knees. ervousne; sleepECO D TAGE: lessness; irritability; decline in sex force; 10 of hair; nervous indige tion; sour stomach; gas in bowels; con tipation; irregular heart; poor memory; lack of mental endurance; dizziness; backache; heada he; neuritis; rheumatism, and other pains.

THIRD TAGE: Seriou mental disturban es; fear; undue worry; melancholia; dangerous organic di turbance; uiciclal tendencies, and, in extreme case , insanity. How often do we hear of people, running from do~tor to doctor, eeking r lief from a mysterious "omething the matter" with them, though repeated examinations fail to show that any particular organ is weak or disea ed. How often do we hear of people racking their brain , trying to discover the reason of their failure in business, in a pro-

The answer is; Lack of erve Force. In short, erve Force mean Life Force-Brain Forceital Force - Organic Force - Dynamic Force - Personal Magnetism - Manliness and Womanliness. o man WITH erve Force has ever stood in a bread line. o man WITH erve Force has ever been down and out. o man WITH erve Force has ever acknowledged himself "licked." o man WITH erve Force has ever failed to attain success.

WHAT THE OBSERVER SAW A Chicago laboratory full of women of every age, with skins good, bad-and worse. Sallow complexions; dull complexions; some were pimpled. One was a mass of blackheads. _ -Then a young man, serious of countenance, but with a skin of startling fairness, applied the magic element to each face AND In fort:>' minutes I beheld a roomful of absolutely beautiful women! Features unchanged, but what complexions! Science had turned artist. It was amating. -While out in the corridors a throng was pleading for admittance. BEAUTIFUL

complexion is now a mere matter of personal cleanliness! Thanks to a young English scientist, every woman so minded can make her skin beautiful while she waits! Small wonder this young man receives more letters than any moving picture idol in his halcyon days-and has had twice to remove his laboratory to a more secluded spot. One must believe what one sees, and the writer has found accounts of this discovery indeed true. I have seen the magic of modern chemistry change the most lifeless, impoverished skin to one of radiant color and velvet texture in less than an hour! It is wonderful. The newly-found element actually physics one's skin. Its action is gentle, but positive. Its use is delightful, not distasteful, for it is applied outside. Put it onj slip into your easy chair to dream or dozej in less than an hour the skin pores move. Impurities that are clogging your facial pores come out as if squeezed from a tube. It's a wonderfulfeeling, this flushing of the pores. They tingle with relief and relaxation.

Why We Should Bathe Internally

M.

H ha been said and volup1es have b en written de cribing at length the many kinds of baths civilized man has indulged in from time to time. Every pos~ible re ource of the human mind has been brought into play to fashion new methods of bathing. but. strange as it may seem. the most important. a well as the mo t ben ficial. of all baths. the "Internal Bath," has be n given little thought. The reason for this is probably due to the fact that few people seem to realiz the tremendou part that internal bathing plays in the acquiring and maintaining of health. To avoid any misconception as to what constitutes an internal bath. let it be said that a hot water enema is no more an internal bath than a bill of fare is a dinner. If it were possible and agreeable to take the great rna s of thinking people to witne an average po t-mortem, the sights they would see and the things they would learn would prove of such lasting benefit and impress them so profoundly that further argument in favor of internal bathing would be unnecessary to convince them. nfortunately, however, it is not po ible to do this. profitable as such an experience would doubtle prove to be. Few people realize what a very little thinR is necessary sometimes to improve their physical ondition. For instance. that universal di order from which almost all humanity is suffering. known a "constipation." "autointoxication." "auto-infection." and a multitude of other terms. is not only curable. but preventable, through the consistent practice of internal bathing. How many people realize that normal functioning of the bowels and a clean intestinal tract make it almo t impo. ible to. become sick? There i entirely too much unnece saryand avoidable sickness in the world. You can name but few people. including yourself. who arc physically vigorous, healthy. and strong-yet five to ten minutes of time devoted to sy tematic internal bathing can make you healthy and maintain your physical efficiency indefinitely. and it will do thi for people of all ages and in all conditions of health and disease. People don't se m to realize. strange to say, how important it i to keep the body free from accumulated body-waste (poisons). Their doinR so would prevent the absorption into the blood of the poisonous excretion of the body and health would be the inevitable result. T{ you would keep your blood pur , your heart normal, your eyes clear, your complexion lean. your mind keen, your blood pressure normal. your nerves relaxed. and be able to enjoy the vigor of youth in your declining years. practice internal bathing and begin today. A most intere tinR booklet entitled "THE WH T. THE WHY and THE W Y OF ITER AL BATH I G," was written by Doctor Chas. A. Tyrrell. the inventor of the "J. B. L. Ca cade.'路 whose lifelong study and research along this line made him the preeminent authority on this subject. ot only did internal bathing save and prolong Dr. Tyrrell's own life, but the lives of a multitude of hopeless individuals have been equally written containing such a vast amount of practical information to the business man. the worker. and the housewife; all that is necessary to secure this book is .to write to Tyrrell's Hygienic In titute at umber 152 \Vest 65th Street. ew York City. and mention having read this article in PHYSICAL LT RE and same will be immediately mailed to you free of all cost or obligation.

dumb fri nds. lived n a farm. I had always loved animal· and een them trcatcd well: he used them to vent an ungovernable temper on. chicken or hog that e caped from its lot always uffcr d bitterly, ometime dropping dcad. Gentle-eyed cow, tied in their tan hion, were pounded with club till bruised and quivering, not becau e they were unruly, but m rely re tle s from heat or f1i . Faithful hoI'. e were sometime denied food or drink a "puni hment." He had a team of beautiful, gentle ba~r of which he wa proud, but he once took a pitchfork to them until the blood treamed. I pleaded with him for the ake of the animal and for the ake of ur I ve and life together, but to no avail. More than once while he lept, I hav lipped out to the barn to p tome maltr at d bat: bathe cruel welts, look de p into oft eye and tell tl;em how orry I wa and, with arm about their neck, sob my heart outthen r turn to "our" bed becau e of the "I will," th babie and pride. Th ir father loved our attractive, whol orne children and they loved Daddy. They did not notice that he was often sullen and moro e, or sen e the frightful profanity that often reached my ear , and did not know of his cruelty to the animals they, too, loved. I could not have them know the e things, could not have my boy grow up copying father. 'Vhen the fourth baby was three years old I insisted on leaving the farm, thinking that perhaps in a different environm~t he might change. And all through tho e years I had per onally been on the rack, my love insulted, my womanhood crucified. The longest look, tendere t smile and thrilling hand-touch were not long exclusively mine after I was safely anchored, but I did not know for quite a while that many of the times that I was left alone it wa that my hu band might revel in the smiles and flattery of some girl in a nearb~r town. Often I was vaguely uncomfortable and when there were young women in our home it troubled me to know that my husband ml.lde opportunities to "make loye" to them. till, although a trict advocate of "ingle ta.ndard" I tried not to be narrow. 0 long a I could feel that he wa "clean" and fundamentally mine, it did not matter so much, though flirtation hurt crueHy. As the ·years lipp d away I came to know that whenever he wa e peciall~r thoughtful of me it meant that he had been cheating me more than u ual. Still, I kept on trying to do my hone t, loyal best and keep love alive. I do not know where I failed as wife. Home was attractive, there were sun. hine, cheer, flower and bodily comforts. Th children and I w l' clean and wel-

coming. I kept my work up and oid not lIag. I managed to fino enough time for r ading and thinking to keep the cobwebs bru hed from my mind. I'know he was proud of wife and babies, yet I uffer d many lights. I had proper elfl' pect and regard for the fine t in life and health but I was not cold; I loved passionately and deepl~r. The culmination of a long chain of minor hurts that had been dragging at heart and oul, came when the fourth baby was mall. I was not yet trong and had not di mi ed my nur e. One day I retur·ned unexpectedly from a drive in the life-giving sun hine, to find hu band and nur e in a position 0 compromising that they attempted no defen e, and all the doubts and f ar and nagging hurts of th year cry tallized in crushing knowledge. If our place had been rver ed, any jury would have cleared my hu band if he had hot and killed. I did not weep or faint or rage. The hurt, of course, would have been Ie. if I had, but even as it was the hock did not kill-my body. When it wa all over, though, I realized that never again would my hu band have power to hurt me, but I hivered. It i only dead things that feel no pain. Thou and of women have walked with me to thi point. Some of tho e thousands took their childr n and left their hu bands, other thou ands taved on with their for one reason or another, as I did, for a time, and perhaps· till other thousands ha' e followed the cour e that I ultimately took. At first I thought that I must go. Then I began to wonder if it was my duty to stay and whether, if I tried hard, it would be po sible to truggle back to something like love and re pect for the father of my children. He pleaded his need of me and tHem. He had not reckoned with the" posibility of being found out. "I've been a fool, but I've learned my Ie on," he said, and I knew that could be po ible. I thought of him and hi futllre and knew that I could not feel blameles if I held the babie with one hand and pu hed him away with the other-and he went down. But I thought m tl~· of the children. In arlier ~'ear I wet-pingly "did not believe in divorce." Later, I modified that a good deal-for others. The accepted tandard, too, wa quite different, till, it hao been my ob ervation that broken home are bad for the children-that ome tigma eem to cling to them no matter how ju tifiable the divorce. I felt that I did not want my childr n to have a divorced father even though the whole world might feel that it wa just. I stayed on for everal years and tried hard to get back the old (Continued on page 98)

HlS is not a story of drudgery,

denial or tedious study. The Olympian plan is a fasci11ati1rg force for the better enjoyment of womanhood. It i interesting every step of the way. It is easy to follow. Every woman who accepts this plan and uses it even 01U 1/I011tll will experience benefits from her Olympian membership which will prove fairly amazillg. Read how these results are achieved.

First: A Glorious State of Healtlz The first fundamental of happiness is Ireal/II. So, Olympian starts with the natural principles of health. Some of them you may know. Butwhat has always been lacking is the key to "zeir use. You are told the scientific secrets of applying these principles with ftell force. Results are instantaneous. You will feel changes the first week. A month brings improvements hard now to believe. Quickened energies crowd out every petty ailment. New physical and mental powers seem inexhaustible. It is wonderftel. Investigate this opportunity without the spending or risking of a single dollar. !Luick Development of Personal Attractiveness Comes Next Next are developed the traits which make for personal magnetism. The knack of making others like you is acquiredand the processes are fdsci1Iati1Ig.· Your progress will astonish you. The next stage is physical manifestations of womanly charm. Unmistakable changes are wrought in your carriage, poise, in your step; your attitudes in repose. The analyses, charts and pictures, the iI1ustrated text, all are so simply and plainly set forth that t:very minute is interesting. Worth-While Beauty Secrets Nothing bought in a bottle can rival Olympian as an aid to physical beauty. When told the scientific causes of supple body and limb -a clear skin-sparkling eyes-pretty shoulders-firm, symmetric breasts-luxuriant hair - it is absurdly easy to attain them. You'll learn how as much as 30 and 40 Ibs. of excess flesh are removed in sixty nays-without starving. How to remove

Married Women It is not exaggerating to say that any woman's married life' is made vastly more enjoyable through Olympian. The very things she wants to know, causes and effects. Successful motherhood;adorable children. What to believe-and not to believe. Preparation for motherhood. Sex truths. Twenty-seven specialists are back f Olympian; most of them have devoted a life's work to the movement.

A Special Concession Heretofore, the benefits of -the Olympian course ha ve been restricted to those who had been invited to join the society, paying full dues. But, the good of the work is too big, too vital and too badly reeded and wanted by women in general to restrict to the few. Hence we have decided to depart for a time from our regular procedure and make it possible for a number of women to obtain the ft~ll Olympian cour e and service, including all workin~ material and text, paying only a small fre, instead f the dues that have been regularly in force. This means that, acting promptly, you get everything in the course-all the working material, text and charts-all of it at once-at a decided saving. It is impossible in this space to enumerate. or describe fitly the material you get and the wonderful value of it-but this is

Olympian Society's O.ffer For the present, you need send no money whatever. Your simple request will bring complete working material and text-everything. You may have unrestricted use of all for a full week. There is no obligation to go a step further; n9 obligation to pay a penny unless you decide the course is wo'rth a hundred times the small fee asked. If you want to keep the material and continue u e of it, you have the pri~iledge of choosing from three plans of payments each at greatly re-

duced cost. But the thing to remember now is that you may inspect all this material without investing or risking one dollar. You have a full week to decide whether you want to keep the material or not. Surely, such an opportunity is worth the clipping of a coupon. Clip it now, and mail today.

I wrote to him very carefull~! and tend rly. I bared my heart and oul and told him that I could not go on longer trying to be hi wife, but that he could b my "broth 1''' if he wanted to tay on with the children.

I was not expeeting anything of thi kind and a nau eating weaknes caught me for a econd, then I said very qui tl~·: "-0, the children will not be separated." "Why not!"

MEN READ THESE CHAPTER HEADS For Fearless, Broad Minded, Plain Speaking Discussion of the Vital Personal Problems Confronting Every Young Man, Bernarr Macfadden's New Book

"MANHOOD AND

MARRIAGE" Has Set a Mark Never Before Approached t last, a man has dared to speak the truth,-the plain unvarnished truth. At last, a light ha been thrown upon the darkne of prudery and ignorance which ha so long surrounded que tions of the most vital importance. At last, a revelation has appeared,-a rev lation through which more than 75,000 men and women have found peace and contentment, happine s and health. Bernarr lacfadden ha accompli hed something never before attempted. He ha dared pUblic disapproval to tell people what they needed to know. He has dedicated to the young manhood of the world the fruit of his lifelong tudy and experience a teacher, physical culturi t, and philosoph r. H tand alon ,the pion r who point th way through an uncharted wildernes of ignorance to the gloriou goal of complete understanding.

The Truth About the Sex Question People have at last begun to realize that the immense importance of the" x que tion" will no longer allow it to be hid away as a thing to be ashamed of. We are living in an age of plain thinking and frank peech. ubjects spoken of in whi per ten years past are now discu freely over the lunch table. Why is it, then, that the mo t important qu tion in the world-the question upon which the future of the human race depend -i kept a dark and my teriou r t? \\'hy i it that so many young people are allowed to tumble along in blind ignorance, often wrecking not only their own liv ,but lives of others a well, when it i so ea y to teach them? Why? ing the fearful misery everywhere about him, brought about by unfortunate marriage, parations, divorces, ickly children, and premature death • Bernarr 1acfadden decided to kill forever the demon Ignorance which made these things po ible. "Manhood and Marriage" is the result.

AnalyzeYour Eating Habits! You Will Be Shocked , But

It May Save Your Life • The wonderful chemistry of dige tion and a similation causes the food you eat to become a part of your body and brain within a few hours after eating. This fact you know and from it you also know that your body and brain can be no better than the food you place in your stomach. Since you are what your diet makes you and since your diet is what you make it, the more you know about foods, how to combine them intelligently into well balanced meals containing all of the ne e ary food elements in proper proportion, how much and how often to eat, how to di tinguish between what is fit to eat and what should not be eaten and how to avoid harmful combinations of otherwise harmless foods, the more nearly you will be able to control your own destiny. Practically all disease begins in the stomach. There is no longer any doubt on that score. The food you eat determine the diseases you may contract or whether you may expect to be entirely free of disease of every kind. A properly nourished body is immune from maladies of whate er nature. It will not contract disease nor will it permit any hereditary weakness to develop into active state.

realize more tmly just how vitally important a well balanced, properly chosen diet is to you and yours.

"Eating for Health and Strength" is the wonderful new book by Bernarr Macfadden that covers the subj ct of diet so completely and at the same time in a manner so simple and easily understood that you are enabled to grasp all of the underlying laws of nutrition almost without an effort. As a health in uranc policy this book by the greatest living physical culturist is worth its weight in gold. By following its teachings you are enabled to choose and combine your food so intelligently that your body r cl'ives exactly the nourishment it hould have. By following its teachings you avoid all of the unhappy consequences of wl'tary errors that are killing countl ss thousands. If you have your own best interest and the interests of tho e you love at heart, you will wish to examine a copy first hand. All that is necessary is to sign the coupon provided below and mail to us to-day. Do not send any money with your order but pay the postman 2.00 upon receipt. After that examine the book for 5 days and then if for any reason you do not wish to keep it, send it back. Your money will be refunded promptly.

How Much Poison Do You Eat Each Day? You have heard all your life of bad combinations of food. When you eat a food combination that is so extremely bad that the stomach positively cannot and will not stand it you become violently. nau eated or contract diarrhea. That kind of bad food combination you recognize because it callnot be igl~ored. . But, do you recognize the dozens and dozens of other food combinations that are far worse for you because while poisonous to the ystem are not sufficiently violent to cause ejectment? Those are the foods that kill because instead of being violently cast forth they are absorbed by the system, which becomes saturated with insidious poisons that slowly but surely sap away health and vitality. If you knew the countless thousands of cases of Bright's disease, diabetes, gout, rheumatism, nervous disorders, anemia, blood disorders, general debility that have gradually developed due to innocent but protracted mistakes in diet, you would

And if you have left middle-age behind. if you are 50 or 60 or 70. where do you expect to be ten years from now? What would you give to be able to defy old age for ten or tw nty year beyond )'our time, to live to 80. 90 or 100 in perfect health, retaining vitality and power of mind to the very last?

This is corre<:t for it is these clement'S that are oxidized in our mu de, where from twenty to thirty p I' cent. of their latent cnerg,)' is utili7.ed in muscular work and the remainder produces heat.

But it doc n't work out that way, for if a man he put in a calorimcter after a meal of beef teak he i found to gen('rate considerably more heat than he does after a meal of tarche. and ugar or even fats. Thi has nothing to do with the amount of exerci e he tak ,for in the experiment the suhjC<'t is required to remain qually quiet in hoth case.

Hot weather is therefore a good time for fat folks to I' duce. The hottest man of all would he the fat m.an who is getting fatter hy an exces ive diet of beef and bean, or othcr high protein food. . The mo. t cooling di('t i the diet that is light in quantit~r and th~t i ".Iight" in quality. Thi. would exclude heavy protein, e. pecially meat. and fats. Fats do not generate so mueh heat per ealory in dige. tion; it doesn't take much fat to make a lot of calorie. The gre n vegetahles and fruits of all kind are ideal hot weather food. Milk cream and hutter hould he the chief source of fats. ince the milk or hutter fat carrie. the e. sential vitamine.

So go light on meat and the o-called meat suhstitutes like beans and macaroni.

Hot weather foods that nct'd no scit,!1<'c to explain their cooling power are the iced drink and fro7.t'n di hcs. Some critiei rn. is made of i('e (Team or th iC'e cold drink from h~'gienie gr'ound on the arguinent that the chilling of the stomach contents top dige tion until the stomadl again rcache its working temperature of ninety-eight. ndoubt~dly Uri i correet, and as applied to the drinking of large quanti tie. of ice wat<'r the ohjt'<'tion is legitimatc. But the chilling ('/Te<'t on the ·tomach is a mattN of the. temperature and quantity of the sub tance and the rapidity "'ith which it is swallowed. The tempC:'rature of the tomaeh heing nindy-cight and ic<' watcr thirtytwo the difference is ixty-six degrec.. Therefore water thirty-three d('gre('s below blood temperature, or at a temperature of six1;y-five would have half as mueh chilling power as the ice cold suhstanee. TO one hesitate' to drink a pint, or even a quart of water at ixty-five. or If'S. , and that would cool the tomaeh quite a much as half th quantity of an iee cold liquid. From this we may d duce that cool drinks. ipped slowl.\·, and ice cream, eaten slowly, a it I11U.·t he t~ he enjoyed, arc hoth rela.tively harmless in this matter of stomach chilling. There i another element in food. t.hat of the natural acid or ourne:s. which we em to reli h particularl~, in.hot wcather. I know of no eientifie rca on whv fruit acids have a cooling eff<'ct. but \~'e feel that they have it, and perhap the rea on will yet be di cover d. In any ell. e so far as we know, the acid fruits and vegetables have no heating cffe t,~, and we can 'continue to enjoy lemonade and tomatoes, assllred that WC' ar thereby swallowing nothing that willmak(' us hotter.

Dying America (Continued from page 41) and the teeming hosts of the colored races. It happen though that bad conditions have a di agreeable habit of getting wor e. Instead of the birth rate remaining tationary it i steadily decreasing. Birth regi tration i a new thing even in the State in which it is now required; but a fairly satisfactory sub titute for uch tati tics may be found in census reports by taking the number of children under five ~'ear of age to each thousand women between the ages of sixteen and fort~'-four, the child bearing period. . ccording to the census of 1800 there were 976 children under five to each thou and women. By 1850 the average had decreased to 679. In the eventy ~·ear from 1850 to 1920 the average further declined to 476 children. For a period of 120 years there h~ been an ayerage decrease of 41 children per thou and women in each decade. Prof. W. F. Wilcox, Profes or of Economic and Stati tics at Cornell niyer ity, writing on thi subject five years ago calculated that, a ording' to the foregoing figures. and as uming an unva~'ing rate of decline in the birth rate. compl'te terility would be attained in one hundred and fifty years. .By the year 2070 the American race will have entirely cea ed to reproduce itself. This, it mu~t be remembered was an arbitrary calculation based on past experience. by a di tingui hed authority, to be sure, but it nece arilv failed to take into con ideration cond'ition which change with each pa ing :r-'ear. Thus far changes have been uniformly for the wor e. Figuring in another way from the arne statistics. the decrease of 500 cllildren per thou and women of child-bearing age in the one hundred and twenty years ince 1800 i 51.2 per cent. On this basis tote'll terility would be attained ,in a generation Ie than the time calculated by Prof. Wilcox. Juggle with the statistic as you please ~'ou infallibly bring up at the inescapable concJu ion that the race is approaching extinction with frightful rapidity. The ame grim tragedy so often played out in ages past is being repeated in America today. Still, the worst has not been told. The race is not merely disappearing from the world. but it is degenerating. Since the better stock is decrea ing more rapidly than the inferior the ratio of good to indifferent and worse decreases. The preponderance of inferior stock increases with results such as are strikingly exemplified in the municipal government of New York City and to a Ie er degree, possibly, in the management of ational affair by Congress. A farmer alive to his own best interests tries to improve his herds and flock by introducing blooded stock. Year by year he tries to increa e the proportion of

blooded to scrub stock until it is one hundred per cent pure. If he ,,;ere to rever e the proce by introducing crub sire in a blooded herd with the obviou result of ultimately getting down to one hundred per cent. scrub tock. hi orrowing family and friend would haye him locked up in an in ane asylum; and that is just where uch a man would belon Well, we American. we who ar wearing out our vocal organ as uring and reas uring our elves and each other that we are undoubtedly the greate t and most wonderful people that ever happened, the mo t enlightened and the most efficient. the hope of the worlo. ann so on, ann 0 on. ao nau earn, are doing exactly what the uppo. ititious fool farmer did when he und rtook to improve hi blooded herd by introducing cruh ire. Year by year, we are increa ing the proportion of scrub human tock and decreasing the blooded tock. "e not merely acquie ce in the proce ses which must lead to our extinction, we are doing all in our power to accelerate their operation. nfortunately there are not lunatic asylulDS enough to holo u all. For tE' timony on this point h pleased to hear Prof. . B. Davenport. of the Carnegie In titution at Washington, as quoted approvingly by Dr. C. W. Eliot, Pre ident Emeritu of Harvaro niver ity. Said Prof. bavenport: "The birth rate of the better families i constantly falling. A Harvard class does not reproduce itself. At the present rate , one thou and graouate of to-day would have only fifty descendants two hundred year hence. . . . From one thou and Roumanians in Bo ton to-day at the pre ent rate of breeding will come one hundred thousand d cenoant<; two hundred years hence to govern the fifty descendants of Harvard' son ." In this connection it i intcre ting to revert again to the fact. indicated in the first paragraph, that the Presidents have heen quite as remiss as their Ie distinguished fellow citizens in the first great duty, which is to perpetuate the race. The twenty-nine Presidents from 1789 to date have had ixty sons and forty-five daughters, a total of one hundred and five children, which figure out at an average of 3.6 children each. In order to maintain the race without increase or decrease, as has already been stated, there should be an average of at least four children per mother. As a further interesting commentar~' on the characteristic American attitude on the subject it is to be noted that the families of physicians and surgeons averaged 2.3 children born per mother of which 2.1 were living in 1920. A an academic theory phy icians are supposed to be informed upon the ubject of the birth rate and the inexorable result of its continued decline. Physicians are also


July, 1922 proclaimed by their code of ethics to po loftier ideal than the common herd. Well, th re are the figure. Draw your own conclusion. Among mine operative, the Hungarian, lav, Pol ,Italian and other who dig the cal, opp r and iron for the country, the average numb r of childr n born per moth r was 4.3, of which 3.6 were living in 19 O. That i , the low t grade of t k w reprodu ing its kind twice as fast as the educated cl Comparing the mental calibre of crub tock with that of the average native tock it is to be ob erved that in the tate of Mas achu et in 1920 thre tenth of one per cent. of native whites were illiterate, while 12.2 per ent. of for ign born whites were illiterate. In th tate of ew York ix-t nths of one p r cent. of native white were illiterate as compared with 14.2 per cent. of foreign par ntage. If you don't like that, her i another little ample of en u tati ti. The colored rac (including in thi term negroe , Indian, hine and Japan e) now have an annual birth rate of 39.3 per thou and population in alilornia and 39.5 in "ashington. Th birth rate of the white population of alifornia i 18.3 per thou and, or Ie than half the rate of the c lored population. And in orth Carolina the birth rate of the negroe i 31.3 per thou and, a compared with a birth rate of 21.3 per thouand for the white population of Ohio. Remember that Ohio is an indu trial tate and therefore has a v ry high proportion of for ign born whit.

the child born or cultured ancestry has a decided advantage over tho e born of the I developed type. If it take ix or ight generations to fix a certain characteri ti in a hoI' e or dog it is nothing I than a crime, which ought to be puni hable by law, to extingui h human traits and characteri tic which have b n acquired by ages of truggle and endeavor. For human being are more difficult to rear than cattle, hoI' e, dog and hog. M n derive their characteri tic from an anc try pread out over a period of omething like three hundred year and numbering perhap two thouand p I' on. In other word , of all the in uffcrabl rot with which our ear are afJIi ted. that about the "melting pot" is the wor t. The fa t that Ibrahim Petoffparents were cleared skyvitch, who from Elli I land last month, happ ned to be born on merican oil will not make him an American at the age of twenty-one, ex ept upon election day, ith I' will hi children nor of cour. hi children' hildren be true Americans. Hereditary traits are more per i tent than that, as we I arned to our co t during the world war. In fact there has never been mu h as imilation of dicordant racial type, in spite of all the hallow twaddle on the ubject, and it is not likely that there ver will be. A imilation i rendered till more improbable by the di similarity of the ingredients now being poured into the "melting pot." either in thi country nor in Europ i one well defined racial type as imilating anotller. The 01'w gian have not b n assimilated by the Swede nor the Portuguese by the Spaniard , nor the Dutch by the German , though they have lived ide by side for many more generations than America has been hearing that "melting pot" non en e. In Switzerland the French, German and Italian el rnents till r main racially di tinct. And the Engli h in anada have not ucceeded in "as imilating" the French habitants, although Engli h anada i one of the mo t ardently loyal dominions in the Briti h Empire. The mal1 amount of actual intermarriage has had no appr ciable effect in dey loping a new racial type in the nited State. The acquisition of the Engli h language, a fair d gree of conformity to manner and u age and a reasonabl compliance with laws and cu toms are far from con tituting racial amI political assimilation. The point or all tlus is that every decreas in the total number of Americans, d cendants of the pioneers who conquered the wilderne , is a permanent 10 .; and that thi 10 i· going on now as it has b en for year at a steadily accelerating rate. Those who are so fond of talking about "Ameri a for American " would do well to note that oon there will be no Americans to inherit America. This i bad enough, but it i not the

wor t. While the birth ~ate in America i d creasing more rapidly than el wh rc, it i on the decline in ev ry ivilized country, or rather it w before tIl beginning of the war. It would hardly be fair to include the trem ndou mortality from 1914 to 1918 in th calculation. The maximum birth rate before the pre nt declin oceun d in France in the dade ending with 18 0; in 01'way, weden, Finland, u tria and Pru ia in that ending with 1830; in B Igium about 1840; in Denmark ab ut 1860; in otland and pain about 1870; in England, Ireland, Hungary, witz 1'land, German~', Bavaria, axony and the etherland about 1880; in Italy, erbia, and Roumania about 1890. In the quart l' century ending with 1910, approximately, the birth rate in Hungary declined from 44.6 per thou and inhabitants to 86.7; in Germany from 87 to 34.8; in pain from 36.4 to 34.3; in Italy from 38 to 32.6; in the therland from 84.8 to 29.6' in B Igium from 30.7 to 27.7; in England and Wal from 33.5 to 26.6 and in France from 24.7 to 19.7 per thou and. It i true that the death rate in all the countrie has decre ed with the birth rate. For example the d ath rate in the arne quarter century declined fr m 33.1 per thou and to 25; in England and '" ale' from 19.4 to 14.7 per tllOu and. Obviou ly thi would have th effect f checking temporarily th arbitrary deer a e in population, but in the \'ery nature of things the check could onl~- be temporary. The fact that a given generation live longer than i predece or does not affect th fact that it lea\'e fewer heir in the ucc eding one. A uming that pre 'ent condition are to continue, when the American' ha\'c p ed from the ·tage there will b no more white men to r place them. leanwhile the colored race whith together now outnumber the wllite race more than two to one how no ign of dimindlin . On the ontrary, the;)' continue to br cd up to the limit of available ub i tence. Japan, for instance, in 1917 howed a net increase of birth over d ath' of 61 ~,77~. Le than twen~- year ago Japan tried conclu ion with Ru ia and found that a hrown man behind a rift was quite the equal of a white man. In fact. that parti ular lot of brown men demontrated to the satisfa ·tion of all ob en'er that they were uperior to the particular lot of white men concerned. From 1914 to 1918 undry black contingen . nt to the battlefield of Europ from. frira and India e tabli hed to their own atifaction tllat th rifle makes all m n more nearly qual than anything eLc. Le ·on like that ar not readil~' forgotten. I it any wonder that ome far- e ing Au tralian became 0 mu h concern rl over the declining birth rate. corre.ponding to the decre e in Europe and America. that twent~· )-ear' ago the~- had a royal commi ion appointed to investigate the ubject?

"iggam ex-plains further, "The great danger i , first of all. that all sorts of death-dealing no trums would be adYerti-ed in thi manner. The management of organic evolution should not be plac d in the hand of patent medicine and no trum venders." Thi i a trange as umption, in view of the fact that other countries. where there are no uch law , arc not the victim of any deluge of "death-dealing no trum." Moreover, the legi lative program of the Voluntary Parenthood Lca!!Ue includ the enactment of a new eparate ection of the Federal Penal Code providing that "no printed information a to methods of preventing conception, and no ingredients compounded for the purpo e of preventing conception, hall he tran portable through the mails or by any other public carrier in the -nited States except such a bear endorsement of duly licen ed physicians or public health authorities." This act together, with the application of the exi ting Food and Drug Acts, would effectually curb the inordinate ambitions of no trum vendors and protect the public from any great promotion of harmful methods. Furthermore. the medical scienti ts who have done the mo t r earch work on method agree that the best method are thc implest, and they entail so little expen e !1nd paraphernalia a to offer no monetary advantage to commercial inter~ts. The quacks and no trum vendors have no interest in contraceptives apart from profit. If there i no profit to be made. they will naturally leave the field to the di inter ted cienti ts who are g IlUine promoters of public health and wclfare.· Mr. "'iggam's next point is, "Every father and mother have their own indiyidual problems and these problem can only be handled by careful p ronal conultation with m dical advi er of the highe t authority. Birth Control advice by mail would lead thousand. of women to diacrno e their phy ical condition themseh·cs. wherea the wi ·t ph~' ician on earth would not dare to diagno e him elf. loreoyer, no reputable ph~T ician would eyer diagno. e and pr cribe without eeing hi· patient." The need for knowl dge as to the wi e pacing of babi i 1Wt a disease. It does not rcquire pecial medical diagno i or pr cription, except wherc the ph~' ique of the parents i out of the normal, any more than the av rage per on n ed' morc than common knowledge f modern dental h~'giene in order to kn w h w to care for the teeth. The ba ic principles of contraception ar 0 implc that any ordinarily intelligent adult can readily comprehend them. Th b t methods of appl.ving the'e principl will. within a relativel.\' f v ye:lri; aft I' the chancre in the law i accompli h d. hecom an accepted part of dome ·tic h~·giene. The original information mu t of cour'e come

from the scientists. It must be authorized and sound, but the doctor will not need to be consulted personally by every individual in need of knowledge, unle s special abnormal phy ieal conditions exist. The passage of the Fed ral bill will at once make po ible the publication in America of authoritatiy, i ntific book and pamphlets which ar freel~' circulated abroad, al 0 the publication of the conc1u ion f everal di tingui hed American phy icians who have for year oone r earch on method and who are now ready to come out in print. 'lith uch publications available at every good book tore. ju t as naturally a Dr. Holt's well known book on the care of babie ha f r year been available. the subject will b free from all the mystery, complication, and selfi h professionali m which now threatens its natural progress out from the sewer where Anthony Comstock put it. up into the pure fresh air f applicd modern science. A leading publi hing firm land ready to i ue an American edition of-- by Dr. Marie C. top ,which i a popular text-book on contraception that ha gone through five edition in London. Not even the name can now be mentioned because of our Federal law! Dr." ilIiam J. Robinson, the well.known exologi t. is ready to fill in the eight blank pag in hi book "The Limitation of Off pring," where concrete in truction in method would have been given but for the law. A leading gynecologi t has all but fini hed a monumental book giving mo t elaborate record of the research on which hi final conclu ions as to method are based. Another gynecologi t who ha pecialized on the treatment of sterility a well as on contraception, thus proving that birth control rightly means inducing a well a pr venting conception, is ready to write for medical journal a report on hi p cial method. But not even that is permitted b.v our laws. Mr. Wiggam's final tatement on thi point i ,"TllU the mercenary and uncrupulous would control the whole ra ial ituation." 'Vhich i more mercenary and uncrupul u , to let the imple contracep· tive method be publi hed by the exp'r . and then taught aU over the country quickly, or to ar people into belie\'ing that th y hould wait indefinitel~' for th Federal law to be changed, and that the.. mu t alway pcrsonally con ult a doctor e\ en when thcir need for contraceptiye in truction has nothing to do with illn ?

Ther are everal mi leading infercn es here. In the first place, the Duteh c1ini are not c1ini as we know c1ini in m rIca. They are mer Iy a Ii t of phy ician , nurs and midwiv ,who give information to applicants. They are not in titutions. The Voluntary Parenthood League has publi hed a pecial pamphl t outlining a plan for th d velopment of birth control clinical ervice in m ri a, the idea'b ing to utilize e:cisting ho pital , di pen ari , c1ini and health centers. ju t as on a p ible as a mean to that end, and having at fi t a f w parately maintained birth control clini mer Iyas d mon tration to point th way, until the r gular h spital add thi kind of rvice to the work the~r are now doing. Thi plan will avoid aU the needle exp n e of p rmanently tipporting eparate birth control institutions "in every town and haml t." ontraceptive in truetion hould be available through all the natural chann I for education in hygiene, through books, pamphlets, doctors in their private practice, doctors in ho pitals, public h alth boards, maternity c nter as ociation and 0 forth. The London Clinic tabli h d about a year ago by Dr. Marie top i a beautiful mod I for the world.

FAT CAN BE REDUCED IN JUST TWO WAYS ~icine. Are Wort hie.. and Go_aU, Harmful

Fat cannot be sweated out-the first drink of water you take after perspiring restores the 10 t weightFat cannot be rubbed off-if rubbing did break it up it would simply float around in the blood and be redepos i ted elsewhereIt cannot be queezed out by rubber bands or corsets-massage furnishe a little exercise but squeezing ha no effect at allConsider the above tatements carefully and you cannot help but acknowledge their soundne s. The Real Solution Is Simple and It Work. Fat enters the body when food is conumed in excess of one's need ; it can be removed by les ning the fat making food intake or by muscular exer ise. There is no other way for it to get in or get out Therefore to lose fat, eat Ie s food that makes fat, or take more exercise that consumes fat--or do both. But above all remember there is no que tion a to whether the treatment will work or not. All other ill of the body may sometime fail to respond even when the best known methods are applied. ot so with obe ity. The cause and elimination of obe ity is a matter of mathematics and there IS no argument about it. If you draw out more from your bank account than you put into it, the amount will be reduced-and in like manner so will you. IN HIS NEW BOOK ENTITLED

from the beginning had as one of its two objects a strong statement in favor of eugenics. This second object read, as folows: " "The education of parents so that the birth of children may occur with due regard to health. heredity, income. choice. environment and the well-being of the rommullity." Prof or Johnson has himself been a. member of the ational Council of the Voluntary Parenthood League from its first year. And the League Council has p1S ed the following resolution on eugeni· by the initiative of Profes or John on: "WnEREA5, a mistaken impre ion exists in some minds to the effect that a RUlin purpose of the Voluntary Parenthood League is to en<:ourage family limitation with the expre object of caw;ing a decrea.<;e in the general birth rate, BE IT R&'lOLVED, that the l\ational Council of the Voluntary Parenthood League hereby affirm that i\.~ dominant inlcre.~t is in the quality. aud not in the quantity of births, and that it lirmly upports the eugenic principles which seek the improvement of the conditions of child-breeding; that it holds that the well-horn child is an asset to the ra(.'C, and the ill-born child a liability, and adv()('Atcs all measures leading to an increa.<;e of the former and a decrease of the latter, without reference to numerical con iderations, believing that a strict in istence on quality will ufIicienUj' assure the race again t the twin bugbears of "race-suicide" and "overpopulation."

Finally, the V. P. L. mo t heartily join with Mr. Wiggam when he say, "It i to the interest of every lover of America, every lover of humanity, to tudy and understand this problem of birth control. The welfare of the American public demand not only light on thi ubject, but action.

" otwith tanding the fact that Pru Ia w the b t r -vac inated country in Europe, its mortality from smallpox in the epidemic of 1871 was higher (69, 39) than any other northern tate. The efficacy of r~-vaccination i ometime ought to be proved by the immunity of nur es in smallpox ho pital. The experiment of not re-vaccinating the nurse was tried at Ule mallpox ho pital of the uth Dublin nion in 1871-72; twenty-nine out of the thirty- ix attendants had not been re-vaccinat d, and th e all caped smallpox as well as the other even. "Th evidence as to re-vaccination on a large cale come from the army. ccording to a omp tent tati tician (A• ogt) , the dealh rate from mallpox in the German army, in which all r ruits are re-vaccinated, was iXlyper cent. more than among the civil population of lhe same age. The Bavarian contingent, which was re-vaccinated without exception had five time the death-rate from mallpox in the epidemic of 1870-71 that the Bavarian civil population of the same ag had, although re-va cination i not obligatory among the latter. "It i often alleged that lhe un-vaccinated are so much inflammable material in the mid t of the community, and that mallpox begin among them and gather force 0 that it weep even the vaccinated before it. Inquiry into the facts has hown that at Cologne in 1870 the fir t un-vaccinated person attacked by mallpox wa the one hundred and evenlyfourth in order of time; at Bonn, the arne year the forty- econd; and at Liegnita, in 1871 the two hundred and twentyfifth."

But civilization i 0 far from "nature" that to tell a civilized man he mu t be natural i an embarra ing deJD<lnd.

It i from within that a man and a womanfor the woman' part i at 1 ast &S important as the man' and p rhap more o-can alone draw the kill to play the art of love ucc fully. Love, like any olb r art, cannot be taught; it can only be I arnt, and that by exp rience. There i a difficulty, apart from our r motene from natur ,which in civilization render love more complicated and i ucc Ie ea y to achieve. That is the diver ity of our condition of life which render individual them elve more diver e. 0 doubt there is a vigorous attempt-and in America to a far higher degree than anywhere el e-to standardize people, and to uppr tho e per on who prove troubl ome to tandardize. But it would be f oli h to uppo e that thi attempt to arr t the pro of civilization ext nd much below th urfa e.

"Womanhood and Marriage" By Bernarr Macfadden If You Are an Earnest, Intelligent Young Woman, Possessed of the Fine Instincts of True Womanhood, You Think Seriously About Marriage and Motherhood, and Hope Some Day to Become the Wife of t e Man You Love, to Bear Him Children, to Make Him a Happy, Comfortable Horne and Then Live Out Your Days Secure in the Deep, Abiding Love of a Faithful Husband and Surrounded by LovingConaiderate Sons and Daughters.

Yet, when you read the papers and see the myriad accounts of separation, divorce, scandal and misery with which their columns are filled you cannot help but feel a deep concern at the pitfalls that border the path of wedded happine s; accounts that well may cause the stoutest heart to quail, the stronge t confidence to weaken.

In Knowledge There Is Happiness However. keep this in mind-there is nothing wrollg wit/r lIlarriage-ltpo,~ marriage is based tire /rome. alld the /rome ;s tire foltluJ.ation of our Itatio,~. Btd. like all other great institutions devised by nature for the good and protection of the human race. it is 8ubject to a well defined set of natural laws that must be obeyed. Therein lies the whole

secret of happy or unhappy marriage. Until recently there was some excuse for women marrying with no knowledge of the responsibilities of wifehood because a vulgar prudery had thrown a den e black wall of ignorance around everything having to do with marriage. a wall that kept girls and young women from learning before marriage the things that every woman 1II1tst know in order to intelligently become the wife of the man she loves and the mother of beautiful1y healthy children.

Ignorance Is No Longer Excusable Bernarr Macfadden. father of Physical Culture. has written a wonderful book for the everlasting good of womanhood entitled. "Womanhood and Marriage" which is now available to every girl and woman. married or single. who sincerely wishes to make her marriage. her home. and her children so ideally perfect that there is nothing left to be desired. We know no better way to give you an idea of the scope. the value. the absolute completeness of this monumental work than to print the chapter heads. As you read the adjacent list of headings you will understand why so many thousands of women consider "'Vomanhood and Marriage" the greatest. single factor for good. and for permanent happiness that has ever entered their lives. In order to place this informa" ~ tion at the di po al of every girl " 0.... and woman we are making: " 9 the liberal offer as outlined • J:s "0 in the attached coupon.

wise and tolerant view of the difficulties of marriage, violently repel the idea of anything like experiment in connection with it. Marriage, they say, is too sacred a thing to be treated as a matter for experiment. One may fully accept, and even a ert, the acrednl' s of marriage; one may view with repulsion the idea of marriage as merely a lightly undertaken experiment. Yet the approache to marriage are rightly experimental. It is by making experiments on the path to marriage that the danger may be avoided of making marriage itself a tragic experiment. Life, indeed, is full of experiment ju t because it i full of experience; the two words are really in substance the arne. What in the end is an experience wa in the beginning an exp riment. We must put to the trial the road of life we elect to follow; we mu t put to the proof whatever we meet along that road; we must at every point test our elves. That trial and that proof and those tests are necessarily experiments carried out in the laboratory of life; they are the experiments that in the end, make up the sum of our experience of life. Yet it eem to me that the instinct of tho e who reject the idea of experiment in connection with marriage is still sound. Marriage i scarcely comparable with a cientific experiment, for we hesitate to try scientific experiments with human being. We are told of Stephen Hale, an eminent repre entative of the cientific spirit, that he could look upon tho e people who di appointed him in life, or injured him, "without any emotion of particular indignation; he u ed to c nsider them only like tho e experiments which, upon trial, he found could never be applied to any useful purpose, and which he therefore calmly and dispa sionately laid aside." But ordinary people cannot, and perhaps we ought to add they should not, so regard the man or the woman whom they had proposed to be united to in so intimate a personal bond as that of marriage. The analogy of marriage i much les with a cientific ell:periment than with a religiou initiation. The precaution we ought to take, the care we ought to ob erve, in order to avoid a mi take as regard our vocation, before it i too late to remedy it, reemble tho e taken by the candidates for a religiou vocation. So it eem to me that we are fully justified in peaking of a novitiate of marriage. * "A would-be nun," we are told, "before h takes the white veil, enters into a novitiate which is to acquaint her with all the offic and r ponsibilities of a convent life, without the formal declarati n which merges the ell:perimcnt into a life-cov nant. 1.£, at the end of the novitiate in the sisterhood a woman find that her nature i unfitted for what he consid r the mo t acred life on earth, 'hc frankly say so, and, without any reflec• OTS:-This idea was developed at various time.. by Mrs. Havelock Ellis who had been partly educated in a convent; see especially The New Horison ;PI Low and Life.

(Macmillan.

ow York. 1921.)


July, 19,.., 2 tion on her character from the lad~Tuperior or her fellow, he goe back to the world and find her work there." It ou ht not to be hard to ent r the path of marriage in the arne eriou and cautious manner. and b~T irnilarly thorough and car ful m th d, t acquir an exact kn wi d'e b f rehand of all that acred YO ation il1\"ol\' . Before entering the noyitiate the mo t romantic notion may b entertained con erning the natur of convent lif or married life. But to tak th perman nt white veil and bind oneelf for life, whether to a convent or to a nome, with no better equipment than ignorant romance, i little hort of inanity. It i an acquaintance with the "offices and re pon ibiliti " that i neces ary, and though uch acquaintance need not, and perhap indeed better not, involve the mo t final intimacy, it still ought to involve at lea tome actual experien of living in the ame hou e for a time with the per on with whom one i propo ing to live in the am hou e for ever. Among orne communities, even in civilized land ,a novitiate more or I on the e line, by the name of "handfasting" or other term, wa formerly common: in Iceland it i aid, in a completely thorough form, t b till common, and to la t for twelve months, which eem a reasonable period. If such a novitiate i r garded as de irable even among primitive peoples with whom life i comparatively imple and uniform, how much more de irable it mu t be under the more varied and complex life of civilization! ertainly the novitiate lUU t in OlUe way change its charact rand ven in ome re p cts grow mor comprehen ive. But, without it, marriage mu t continue to be a difficult and as dangerou as we ee it to be to-day. I have touched on but a few of the difficulti of marriage. But tho e I hav elected are ignificant b·cau e they are f a kind that can to a large xtent be guard d again t by wi e preparation. We n ed, indeed, intelligen e, and knowlII-di cipline to edg , and training in approach afely all the affair of life. 'Vith that preparation we may alway allow our elve a confident faith and tru t. In approa hing marriage, when 0 pr pared, we may feel pecial confidence. For marriage i one of the mo t anci nt of human, even of animal, in titution. If marriage prove a failur it can carcely be anyone' fault but one' own.

This Man's Wonderful Experience With

THE MILK DIET IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE. WHAT IT DID FOR HIM IT WILL PROBABLY DO FOR YOU. Every day we receive letter- from men and women tel1ing of the almo t unbeli vable r lief that the'"cxc1usive milk di t ha given them in the treatment of a multitude of ills. Their experience goes far to prove the truth of our contention that nine-tenth of the di a to which the human body i heir begin in the tomach. me of these lett r go into such complete detail regarding the succe obtained in treating widely prevalent ailment that they cry out loud to be publi hed for the benefit of the thousand similarly afflicted. The following is a typical case,-

Bernarr Macfadden ..F.'.M, " P~!lJlc.1 Cultu,."

Who probably has had more experience in administering the Milk Diet than any living man.

MR. BER ARR MACFADDE • c/o PHYSICAL CULTURE CORPORATION, New York City. Dear ir: "The Miracle of Milk" is not simply an expression. but a fact of importance. My experience is. perhaps, wo,th telling you. and may possibly have some value in your records. For about thirty years I have taken cathartics. and of late every day. the dose gradually becoming greater. From bilious attacks I have gone on to what was described as acute indigestion. also frequent sick and dizzy spells. when Castor Oil and other remedies were prescribed and different doctors whom I consulted at such times would speak of my system being poisoned In some manner. . In a copy of PHYSICAL CULTURE which I picked up. and for which I later subscribed. I noticed an article on milk, and later in response to an advertisement sent for the milk lessons. but being from home so much aid not make use of the treatment for some time. which however much interested me. Returning from ew York in ovember last I had a nasty sick pell, and concluded it was time to look after my health. I took the milk diet exactly as in tructed. taking no cathartics. and finally beeoming regular. At the end of a month I had gained in weight seventeen pounds. I then started on ordinary food but did not relish it. going back to milk. three Quarts a day with prunes. raisins. dates. which seemed to satisfy every demand of the appetite, my weight going back five pounds. and then remaining constant. About a month ago the desire for other food returned. The most curious thing is that. while I have always been fond of coffee. and have smoked for forty-five years. I have lost all desire for both. ana have taken neither since November, but just a glass of milk at meals. I am wondering if wings will come; at any rate I have had no sick spells since and am hoping. After ceasing the full milk diet constipation returned to some extent, when I sent for a copy of "Vitality Supreme." and am now Quite regular. Meeting myoid doctor this morning. he remarked how well I was looking. and [ told him [ had discovered a fine new medicine. He asked what it was and I replied. milk. He said. "Stick to that and )'OU will add years to your life." Is there not somewhere the lament. "If I had only been told before." Very sincerely yours.

The gentleman who wrote this letter requested that", e do not mention his name in print. We have it on file, however, and will gladly furnish further information to anyone desiring it.

former have more blood in tllem than the latter. There is no harm in that-you C<'l.n get along with but a mod rat upply of blood, if you will moderate your consumption of it in proportion. To illu trate: There is a cia of profe i nal trong men, making a bu iness of giving in truction in bodily developm nt, and very good and u ful m n tll yare too. But if you examine them, or their photograph , you will notice tJu\t their muscles, all ov r their bodies, are enormous, amounting sometimes to actual deformity. obody, in the u ual course v n of an active and strenu u life, requires anywhere near so much muscle. It makes exc ssive drains upon the vitality to support it; tlle heart is overworked, and the blood that g s to tlle mu lsi taken away from the internal organ, which sooner or Iat r langui h and 10 e tone in con equ nc. Final!, th e overgrown mu I s, in pite of their ize, begin to 10 e power and endurance; they d generate into masses of useless ti ue, yet their owners mu t carry them about, unwieldy para ites on the more important parts of tlle body where life resides. The man comes to hi end prematurely, being, as it were, suffocated or bled to death. When a man is not more tllan tlurty, and has acquir d uch mu I , h may save him lf by r ducing th m gradually, till they have ub id d into reasonable dim n i ns. He mu t eschew all heavyweight work, and take only light exerci , enough to k ep him lf fit. Fifty years ago, I could pu h up a two hundred pound dumb-bell Witll either hand, without a jerk. But I realized tllat there was no use in such feats, and that tIlere might be harm. I quit heavy exercise, and for years I restricted myself to long-distance walking and running, and to light, quick movements of tile arms and body, without apparatus. The girtJl of my chest was 4831 inches. It is now 44 inches inflated, and yet the amount of xpani n is nearly the same. In tead of 16 inclles or over, my biceps now measure und r 14, but it is firm and lastic; and o f the rest. Instead of 200 pounds, my weight is now, at most, 168. I climb the mountain trails here in alifomia where I live without getting out of breath, and Witll no discomfort of the heart. I eat v ry little meat, but much br ad and whc.'l.t f d and milk, and vegetabl and fruits. I am in con tant good hape, and n ver a burd n to m elf. Now to g t ba k from thi digr ion. In beginning our bodily r g nerati n, you mu t take note of th thing that oppo e and r nder it difficult. Mo t obviou of these is of course your own p r onall thargy or inertia-your chronic indi p iti n to make and maintain phy ical effort. That you must over-

c me by for e of will, helping yours H by bearing in mind tlle great value to :rourlf of the eours you are pur uing. You are taking mean not only t prol ng :rour life, but to make it worth prol nging; to bccom able to depend upon yourelf and to be ind pendent of Otll rs. And you are going to add immen Iy to your personal comfort by 0 doing. You will eat well, 1 p s01lUdly, wake fr h, and go through the day lightly. But behind your inertia is that which occasioned inertia. What i that? You may say it is the natural ffeet of age. Yes, but you mu t go further back yetwhat i the cau e of the effect we call age? It is a univ rsal, a cosmic cau e; it is tlle attraction of gravitation. Gravitation, in pite of its u efuln , i the grcat and inveterate enemy of yOUtll. Its drag upon the body i uncea ing; in v ry hour of our waking life we mu t struggle again t it. Finally, it prevails and drag our body down into the grave. But it is our duty unceasingly to fight again tit, never losing courage, and having faithfully done that, we hall have robbed death of the worst of its sting. Put a lively boy of ten beside an old gaff r of eigbty, and note the contrast. In the boy, all tlle lines and contour of hi face and body have an upward t ndeney, and his movem nt con tautly lift him off the earth; h wants to jump and caper, climb tre " vault fen , hop up and down. H hat itting till, and ~-ou can't get him to Ii down exe pt at night, and then how oundly he I p! The old gaffer, on the other hand, look like a being of another world and nature. Everything about him sags, as if invi ible threads were attached to ev ry part of him and were dragging him down and drawing the juice out of him. The furrows in his cheek are like dry water courses, his eye ink b!l.ck and droop in their sockets, hi throat hangs in wrinkl , his shoulders seem to carry a weary weigh t. He . toop toward the ground; his frail leg with their tiff, bent 1.."11 , have no pring in them; when he its in hi chair, he d it with a littl grunt, and it i n't ea y to indu him to g t up again. His voice is a pithless cackl ,and even his thoughts are heavy and slow-moving. All that is the work of gravitation: eventy years ago he was lik tlle winged urchin gamb lling in the yard outside. But if he had r IuteJy and persistently fought again t gravitation during the past fifty years, he would pr ent a v ry cliff rent and more cheerful pectacle. For gravitation i not only our en my, but our friend. If w yi Id to it, it i fatal, but if w trive against it, it become as nearly the Elixir of Youtll as anything on this mortal plan can be.

But betw en lifting the two hundr d pound dumb-b 11 and lying flat on the ground with very mu Ie r lax d, ther are innum rabl gradation, and what you have to do, as you g t n in years, i to adopt the gold n medium. our own body will afford you quite dumb-b II enough.

Don't fall into a routine and think of something el ,d n't imply go through the motion and leave out the force and accuracy.

There is no pace here, nor i it n esary, to d ribe all the diff r nt exercises in detail. r of "manual " on the subject ar already in print. But I will say that any exercise in the open air is worth thirty p r nt. m.r than the same taken ind rs. Pure air is what you want~xygen.

tance. But be careful not to hunch up the houlders. The upward stretching must be from below. To teach you how to walk would need almo t an article by i If. In general, let the body above the hip r tain the po ture for tanding. In tepping out, you will have to bend the knee in ord r that the foot may cl ar th ground, but don't bend it any m re than you have to, and meanwhile try to ke p the 1m of the rear I g traight. That big mu Ie baek of the thigh-bicep femon ,they c.'\\l iti always hrunk nand feehle in old men, and you mu t re tore it. Let your tride be as long as you c.'\n conveni ntly make it, and as y u nd the leg forward, let the hip ,,;ng f rward with it. It lengthen th tride. Don't let the ball of the rear foot leave th ground until the heel of the forward f t i planted. The houlders, in bri k walking, ,,;11 way a little from ide to side, and the arm will swing. Don't exagg rate the' movements, but don't try to uppr them. The whole movement in walking, from head to foot, hould be continuou , upple, undulating. eek vertical and elongated, remember; che t developed; trunk elongated above hip; chin in. Train yourself to carry out all the detail by a single act of the will, steadily maintained. As to the c.'\li thenic or fr e-hand exerci ,I will say thi only: Ke p the idea that the muscle and j ints are to be str tched to their full t • ent in very movement, rather than contracted. Long, flexible muscle are more de irable than short b..n otty ones. And exercise, for old men pecially, hould follow the principle of a tretching, not of a contraction. tretching will cau the bl d to flow into the muscle as much a contraction will, and the effect upon the int mal organ of thi tretching i of much gr at r benefit than any contracting. Of course, the stretching of one mu cl may often involve the contraction of an ther, but keep your attenti n fi:<ed upon the tretching. The joints will d rivc good from the stretching mo t f all, you will hear them crack at first, and th y will be re for a while; but k ep it up! The game is worth the candle! It will not be I ng before you will notice an all-over improvement in your conditi n and your fe ling, and that will heart n you to go n. People will begin to tell you (with m re truth than u ual) that you seem ten years rounger, and you "ill be and feel even young r than you m to an observer. D n't be too ambitious, and overdo, but b t ady and unfaltering: The conqu ring of gravitation-the turning of it int a fri nd in tead of an enemy-is an achi v m nt not accomplished in a day, but it can be don -and you can do it. Future numbers of PHYSICAL CULTURE will present further stimulating health talks by Julian Hawthorne. Watch for them.

orporation,

DEAR IR:I would like to tell you about the gr ate t problem I ever had in my life and I am now 57 years old. \\ hen a young girl, my moth r told me I wa born with on tipation. f our I b Ii ved her, but a the doctor said I could be cured I went from on to another, taking all the dope they ould think of to giv me but without result. Then I had a bad case of hemorrhage, wa operat d on and wa ick in bed for months. The doctor told me that when I recovered I would be well and that I would not be troubled with can tipation any more. But when I got up--no re ult and ba k to pill again. I was getting fat all th time up to January. ly son, a veteran of the war in France, came home with a disability discharge and brought a PRY ICAL LT RE lagazine. In looking it over we saw your plendid offer of the Encyclopedia in fiye volume at so reasonable a price that it gave u a hance to obtain it, for we are poor peopl. My son said, " lother, nd for the first volume and we will what it i. \\ e may find something that will help u both." I sent for the fir t volume and from it I learned that I had not been eating or living properly. Immediately I ommenced a different way of eatin~ and living and also nt for the re t of the books. My friends told me that I wa too old to do the xerci s you explam d so clearly, but I thought I would try and so commenced the good work. \\ hen I tarted thi course I could not walk four blocks without the mo t terrible pain in my abdomen and legs. \: rhen I would ri after itting for a while, my knee would nap loud enough to be heard in any part of the room. I would also have frightful cramping pell in my abdomen. But after four months of exer ise and proper food I am perfectly well and have not taken a pill or m di ine of any kind.
