Key is too "m4dest a title for such a stupendous revelation" SOME men and women seem to attract success, power, wealth, health and attainment with very Ii tt1e conscious effort; others conquer with great difficulty, still others fail altogether to reach their ambitions, desires and ideals. Why is this so? "The Master Key" will tell you why. No One can read it and not be a changed man or woman. No one will emerge from its magic pages without a firmer grasp of the fqture-a surer understanding of what he can do. !f

How A New Kind of Clay Remade My Cotnplexion in 30 Minutes 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. aULD hardly believe my eyes. Just thirty minutes before my face had been blemished and unsightly; my skin had been coarse, sallow and lifeless. Ow it was actually tran formed. I wa amazed wh n I saw how beautiful my complexion had become-how soft its texture, how cxquisit its coloring. Why, the blemishes and Impuriti S had been lifted right away, and a charming, mooth, clear skin revealed undern "thl \Vhat was this new kind of magic? You see, I never did have a pretty complexion. My skin is very sensith·e. It always u ed to be so coarse and rough that I hated to use powder. metime pimpl and eruptions would appear ov r night-and as for blackheads, Inver CQuld get rid of them I To be perfectly frank with you, I tried everything there was to tr~{. I greeted each new thing with hopebut hope WM soon abandoned a my skin became more harsh and color· less. Finally I gave up everything in favor of massage. But sudd nly I found that tiny wrinkles were beginning to show around Ih e~' sand chin-and I assure ~'ou I gave up rna age mighty quick. Wasn't there anything that would clear my complexion, that would make it oft and smooth and firm? Wa n't there anything I could do without wa ling more time and mor money? It was very di~couraging and ] wa tempted more than once to give it up. I n fact, on one very disappointing occasion I firmly resolved never to u anythinj( but soap and water on my face again. But tJl n something very wonderful happened -and beinf: a woman. I promptly changed my mind.

I

Why I Changed My Mind Did you know that the outer lay r of the skin, called the epidermis, is constantly dying and being replaced by n w cells? I didn't-until I read a very remarkable announcement. That announcement made me chang my mind. It explained. simply and clearly, how blackheads, pimples and nearly all facial eruptions are caused when dead kin and bits of du t clog the pores. Impurities form in the stilled pores-and the results are SOOn noticeabl . The annOu ncern ot went on to explain how scientists had discov red a marvelous clay. which, in only one application, drew dust, dirt and other impuritie and harmful accumulations to the surface. This Domino Complexion Clay, in only a half-hour, actually lifted away the blemishe and the impurities. And wh n it was removed the skin beneath was found to be soft. smooth, clear and charming I an you blame me for wanting to try this wonder(ul di<covery on my Own blemished complexion?

My Extraordinary Experience I won't bore you with details. uffice to ay that I applied the Domino omplexion lay I had read about to my face one evening at nine o'clock and settled myself comfortably for a half hour of reading. Soon I \Va conscious of a cool, drawinl: . natIOn. In a few moments the day on my face had dried into a fragrant mask. And a it dried and hardened there was a wonderful tingling feeling. I could actually feel the millions of tiny por breathing, freein<: them elves of the impurities that had tilled them, givinj( up the bits of dust and accumulations that had bored deeply beneath the surface. At nine-thirty I r moved the Domino Complexion Clay and, to my utter astonishm nt. found that I had a brand new compl xion I Hidden beauty had actually been reveal d! Every blackhead had va.,isbed; the whole texture of the kin

had been tran formed into smooth, clear, delicately-colored beauty, I hall never forget my extraordinary experience with Domino Complexion Clay. It accom plished in a half hour what other preparations had not accomplished in y ars. It i because it did it for me, becau I actually had this wonderful experi nc , that I con nted to write thi story for publication.

Why stay thin as a rail, a laughing stock to every man or woman who sees you? You don't have to. You don't have to go through life with arms of childish strength; with legs you can hardly stand on; with a chest and figure your tailor has to pad out to make you look anything like a real MA . And what about the stomach of yours, that flinches every time you eat a square meal? Are you trying to make it do its work and to gain Health, Strength and Vitality in tabloid form-through pills, drugs and other exploited piffie? You can't do it. IT CAN'T BE DONE.

They are sorry for you, but sympathy will not re tore your health and each day you continue to exist in the rut of physical weakness is a day wasted for you and those who must put up with your ickly company.

"NERVES"

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

By PAUL von BOECKMANN " ERVES"-We hear it everywhere. The physician tells his patient-"It's your erves." nsitive and high-strung women complain of their" lerves." You see evidence of " erves" everywhere--in the street, in the cars, in the theatre, in business, and especially in your home--right in your own family. We Americans are a nation of nervous people. This is known the world over. Our own erve pecialists admit it. It is caused by our" 1ile-a-Minute" life: the intensene s of our ;\"atures in everything we do. It is making us the most progressive nation on earth, but it is also wrecking our people. Our crowded insane asylums prove it. Medical records prove it. Millions of people have sub-normal erve Force, and con equently suffer from endle organic and phy ical troubles, which make their lives miserable. \ hat i meant by " erve?" By " erves" i meant erve Exhau tion (Neurasthenia), lack of erve For e. V. hat is erve Force? We might as well ask "\\ hat is electricity?" We do not know. It is the secret of ature. We do know that it is the vital force of life, a my terious energy that flows from the nervous sy tem and gives life and energy to every vital organ. ver the nerve which leads to any organ and that organ will cease acting. The wonderful organ we term the ervous ystem consists of countless millions of cells. These cell are reservoirs which store 'erve For e. The amount stored repre nts our erve apital. Every organ works ince santly to keep the supply of erve Force in these cells at a high level, for Life itself depend more upon erve Force than on the food we eat or even the air we breathe. 1£ we unduly tax the nerves through overwork, worry, excitement, or grief, if we subject the mu ular system to excessive strpin, or, in any way, consume more erve Force than the organs produce, the natural result mu t be erve Bankruptcy, in other words, erve Exhaustion, eurasthenia, or " erves." There is but one malady more terrible than erve Exhaustion-it kin, Insanity. Only those who have passed through a siege of erve Exhaustion can understand the meaning of this statement. It is HELL; no other word can express it. At first, the victim is afraid he will die, and, as it grips him deeper, he is afraid he will not die-so great is his mental torture. He becomes panicstricken and irresolute. A sickening sensation of weakne and helplessness overcomes him. He becomes obsessed with the thought of self-destruction. erve Exhaustion is not a malady that comes suddenly. It may be years in developin~ and the decline is accompanied by unnu takable symptoms, which can readily be recognized. The symptoms of :\erve Exhaustion vary according to individual characteristi ,but the development is u ually a follow: FIR T TA E: Lack of energy and ndurance: that "tired feeling," e pccially in the back and knees. E O~D T. ,E: K .TOU ness; leeplessne ; irritability; d line in x force; 10 of hair; nervou indige tion; sour stomach: gas in bowel; constipation; irregular heart; poor memory: lack of mental endurance: dizziness; backache: headache-; neuriti: rheumatism, and other pain.

THIRD TAGE: Serious mental disturbances; fear; undue worry; melancholia; dangerous organic disturbances; suicidal tendencies, and, in extreme cases, insanity. How often do we hear of people, running from doctor to doctor, seeking relief from a mysterious "something the matter" with them, though repeated examinations fail to show that any particular organ is weak or diseased. How often do we hear of people racking their 'brains, trying to discover the reason of their failure in business, in a pro-

Paul von Boeckmann Author of Nerve Force and scores of other books on Health. Psychology. Breathing. Hygiene and kindred subjects. Over a million of his various books have been sold during the last 25 years. Prof. von Boeckmann is the scientist who explained the nature of the mysterious Psycho-physic Force involved in the Coulon-Abbott Feats. a problem that had baffled the leading scientists of America and Europe for more than thirty years. and a fun account of which has been published in recent issues of Physical Culture Magazine.

fession, love, or any undertaking. They would give anything to lay their finger on the stumbling block of their lives-the door that locks out their ambition , the wall that blocks their progress. The an wer i : Lack of erve Force. In short, erve Force means Life Force--Brain Force-Vital 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. This, of course, applies to women as well as men. And, on the other hand, \ ITHO T erve Force no person of either sex in any walk of life has ever reached the top, has ever achieved success, or has ever gotten the fullest enjoyment from life itself. WITHOUT an abundant supply of erve Force our lives are wrongly adju ted, we fail to utilize our full powers, and we cheat ourselves of our birthright of health and vigor. "A sound mind in a sound body" depends upon sound nerves. And to be a WI ER, even in a small way, demand, first of all- ER E FOR E. If your ER E have reached any of the three stage of depletion, you ought to take immediate tep to d termine the cau and to learn what to do to build up your :\erv~ Force. I have made a life study of th m ntal and phy ical characteristics of nervous people, having treated mor case of" erve" during the past 25 years than any other man in the world (over 90,000). My instru tion is given by mail only. 0 drugs or dra tic

treatment of any kind are employed. Iy method is remarkably simple, thoroughly scientific, and always effective. 1" shall agree to end you further information regarding my system of treatment FREE and without any obligation on your part. Everything is confidential and sent sealed in a plain envelope. You should read my 64-page book. " ERVE FORCE." The cost of this book is only 25 cents (coin or stamp). The book is not an advertisement of any treatment I may have to offer. This is proved by the fact that large corporations ha ve bought and are buying this book from me by the hundreds and thousands for circulation among their employees-Efficiency. Physicians recommend the book to their patientsHealth. Ministers recommend it from the pulpit- erve ontrol, Happin . ev r before ha so great a mass of valuable information been presented in so few word. It will enable you to understand your erve, your Mind, your Emotions, and your Body for the first time. Read the book at my risk, that i ,if it does not meet with your fulle-t expe tation , I shall refund your money PL your outlay for po tage. My advertisem nts have been appearing in this and oth r tandard magazines for more than 20 year. This i ampl evidence of my integrity and responsibility. The followin xtracts are quoted from letters written by people who have read the book: "I have gained 12 pounds since readin your book, and I feel so energetic. I had about given up hope of ever finding the cause of my low weight." "I have been treated by a number of nerve specialist, and have traveled from country to country in an endeavor to r tore my nerves to normal. Your little book has done more for me than all other methods combined." "Your book did more for me for indigestion than two courses in dieting." "My heart is now regular again and my nerves are fine. I thought I had heart trouble, but it was simply a case of abused nerves. I have reread )'our book at least ten times." A woman write: "Your book ha helped my nerves wonderfully. I am leepinlf so well and in the morning I feel so rested.' "The advice given in your book on relaxation and calming of nerves has cleared my brain. Before I was half dizzy all the time." A physician says: "Your book shows you have scientific and profound knowledge of the nerves and nervous people. I am recommending your book to my patient ." A prominent lawyer in Ansonia, onn., says: "Your book saved me from a nervous collap ,such a I had three years ago. I now leep soundly and am gaining wight. I can again do a real day's work."

How I Saved My Hair! The Tragedy of Baldness By ALBERT WOODRUFF HE the barbel told m my hair was getting thin I merely smiled and let it go at that. \,"hen my wife said, "Bert, I do believe you ar hecoming bald," I gave a littl laugh and passed it off with a jesting remark. I took the gibes of my friend in the same spiritand I laughed when the comedian at the theatre made his "cracks" about candidat for the "bald-headed row." But it wasn't until my business associates commenced to notice that I was rapidly becoming bald and gray that I worried. For while I was ju t as full of pep and vim as I had ever been-while my busine judgment wa just as keen as ever, yet I worried for fear my associates might think of me as heading toward the "has been" cia . I deided to try to save my hair-if it could be saved. Then I became a slave to hair tonic. If a tonic was new I bo ught it on sight. I tried every kind of ha mpoo that I heard of. I was a victim of the barber' wiles. The money I spent-and all to no purpose. 1y hair continued to come out just a fa t as it ver did before I had tri d to stop it. Every time I combed my hair it told the tory.

W

about the proper care of the hair and scalp. He said that one need not I t the hair grow thin and gray. He said that if the hair is falling out or getting gray a reasonable amount of proper care will restore it, unless one is completely bald: And thi same care will keep the hair strong and healthy throughout life. He spoke of simple, natural and effective methods for treating the hair and scalp by following a few laws of nature. Then he casually mentioned that he was startled at the tremendous demand that existed for his comprehensive work. In fact, the fir t edition of his treatise was very quickly sold and a new 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 Mr. 1acfadden had written the book it was sure to be very practical-and the fa t that so many had been sold clearly proved to me that the treati e must be filling a popular demand. I just jotted my name and address down on the coupon and returned it. \Yhen

How I Prevented Baldness One day I read a v ry interesting ad,·ertisement by the celebrated Phy ical ulturi t, Bemarr Ma cfadden. ow, it so hapen Mr. Macfadden pened that I had several tim and I knew that he himself had aturally I wa inwonderful thick hair. terested-although it was news to me that Mr. 1acfadden had made a tudy of the hair and had written a book on the subject, entitled, "Hair Culture."

I receh'ed the book on five day' Free examination I immediately read it very carefully and that "ery same night I started to follow the few simple rules. I mu t confe that within a very short time I noticed a decided improvem nt in the growth of my hair-it became thicker and more glossy. Then dandruff disappeared. Today, after following the rules laid down in this new method, I have ju t as fine a head of thick hair as you would ee on any man-even a young man of ighte n or twenty has no thicker or glo ier hair than mine. In fact, many haven't anywhere near such fine hair. The grayne ha all disappeared and my hair ha .the glowing color of youth. My wife and children also adopted the rules which we discovered in fr. 1acfadden's treatise entitled "Hair ulture" and their hair is the admiration of all their friend. If

If you would like to take 1r. Woodruff's advice we will gladly let you examine "Hair ulture" for yourself, without obligation, and see how easily you can follow the methods that should bring new life, new lustre and luxurianc to your hair.

the ew York Hippodrome people have been amazed by the marvelous acts of Captain eorge Power ' elephants. In the famou Ba eball Scene the elephants actually play a game of ball. All the hundr d and one little motions are gon through ju t as you see them on th ba. ball diamond. The ball i actually thrown from the pitcher' trunk and c1evrly caught by the trunk of the catcher. The bat man keep hi

ye on the ball, swings when he gets one to suit him and runs when he makes a good clean hit. Many little side plays take place. the signals of the catcher. the whispered conferences between catcher

and pitcher, the scraping of the feet. the pounding on the plate and various signs of impatience on the part of the ponderous batsman. No instructions are given by the trainer-they are not needed. For an elephant "eveT forgets. These animals know nothing about the significance of the game they play-it is purely a demonstration of their extraordinary powers of memory. The Baseball Scene was put on at one time, after a lapse of 4 years, WITHOUT A REHEARSAL,and not a single little by-play had been forgotten. Nature has given the Elephant miraculous memory powers which might well be the envy of the average man or woman. Yet. if one knows how. one can easily and Quickly attain a retentive memory beside which the memory of any animal would be insignificant.

Cuvier's Marvelous Memory The famous Cuvier. for example. knew the secret. When a larlle part of a book of accounts has been destroyed by fire he restored the several thousand figures accurately from memor, without a single error. Such feats for most 0 us seem like an almost supernatural development. Yet you will probabl)' be surprised to know that in one single evening anyone can master the secret of a "mind which never forgets."

An Amazing Experience That Brought Thousands of Dollars Let Mr. Victor Jones tell of his experience in finding out about this astonishing secret: "As we went into the banquet room," Mr. Jones relates, "the toastmaster was introducing a long line of guests to Mr. Roth. I got in line and Mr. Roth asked me: 'Mr. Jones, what are your initials. your business connections and your telephone number?' "Why he asked this I learned later, when he picked out from the crowd the 60 men he had met two hours before, and called each one by name without a mistake. What is more, he named each man's business and telephone number for good measure. "He did many other amazing things. He called back long lists of numbers, stock Quotations, bank clearings. parcel post rates, etc., that were read out to him. pack of cards were shuffled. then the names of the cards in their present position were called out to him. He turned his back toward the cards and instantly named the cards in the order in which they now stood in the pack. Then named them in reverse order.

"When I afterward complimented Mr. Roth On these marvelous feats. he said. "You can do this just as easily as I do. You can learn Quickl)' to remember anything you wish-names, faces facts, figures, business data, articles you've read', etc."

Learn the Secret in One Evening

"I can teach you the secret of a good memory in one evening." ~lr. Roth COntinued. I have done this with thousands. In the first of seven simple lesSOns which I have prepared so that any one can follow them at home. I explain the basic principle of my whole system. Best of all, it doesn't seem like work or study. It's like playing a fascinating game." "Well, I could hardly wait until the next day to get his course from his publishers, the Independent Corporation. When I tackled the first lesson I was the most surprised man in 48 states. I found that in one hour I had learned how to remember a list of one hundred words, so that I could repeat them forwards and backwards without a single mistakel And it was but a Que tion of day before I learned to do exactly what he had done. At first I amused myself with new-found ability by amazing people at partIes. My 'memory-feat,' as my friends called it, surely made a hit, and I was showered with invitations for all sorts of affairs. If anyone were to ask me how Quickly to develop social popularity, I would tell him to learn my memory 'feat." I discovered that my memory training had literally put a razor edge on my brain. ~y mind had become clearer, Quicker, keener. I was fast acquiring that mental grasp and alertness I had so often admired in men who were spoken of as 'wonders' and 'geniuses,' Formerly I never could think of things to say until the conversation was over. But nOw I can think like a flash. I never have to hesitate for the right word or the right thing to say. to

Brought Business Advancement "It wasn't long before my new-found ability to remember things attracted the attention of our president. He got in the habit of calling me in whenever he wanted facts about the business. He said: 'You can always tell me instantly wbat I want to know, while the other fellows annoy me by saying 'I'll look it up,' "In fact, my newly acquired memory power has been of the greatest value in my business career. Very substantial and steady increases in my salary are directly due to the secret I learned from Mr. Roth. "I could tell hundreds of ways I bave profited by my trained memory. No longer do I suffer the humiliation of meeting men I know and not being able to recall their "ames. The moment I see a

Are You a Business Coward.? - and- does it show in your pay-check? "You've Iladyour chance!" It was the General Manager speaking • • • • "-Two years ago I waHled you that the only man who could hope to get ahead in this organization was the man with training. "-Merwin was only a bookkeeper then, you remember, but in his spare time he was studying Hi~her Accounting. I knew what he was dOing, and I told you then 10 kccp your eye 01l Merwin. "-He's had three raises since you and I had that little talk together. He has more than doubled his salary - and he earns every dollar I pay him. "-Last week I recommended him for the office of A sistant Treasurer, and at the Board Meeting he was elected without a dissenting vote. I tell you we're mighty glad to have him in the group. "-But you, Jarvis-l hate to say ityou're a busincss coward. You kncw what you would have to do to get out of the small-pay class. You were simply afraid to face the kind of effon and resp<?nsibility that could get you a substanttal salary. "-And now it's too late. We've got to cut our overhead, and you're one of about three hundred men that we can get along without. \Ve could replace the lot of you tomorrow. "-For your own sake, Jarvis, take a tip from a man who has been thru the mill, and this time get busy and learn to do something better than the other fellow. "-Our traffic manager, I don't mind telling you, is drawing better than 100 a week. There's a good field for an ambitious man-and it's growing. •• - Then there's expert corre pondence. If we could get a man who could create powerful and convincing sales letters and could train our people to write that kind of letters, he'd be cheap at $5,000 a year. We'd pay him that right off the bat. "-J arvis, there's 110 end of opportunity for the young man in business; but the only man who cashes in these days is the man with the courage to get special training. The offices of this country are simply cluttered up with business cowards.

PHYSICAL CUtTURE BERNARR MACFADDEN'S VIEWPOINT The Truth Will Make Us Strong

T

HE main purpose of this magazine is to present truths about the physical man and woman. We want people everywhere to know the value of th~ vitality building methods that we describe in various forms in every issue of this magazine. We try to "smash" errors, wherever they can be found, without fear or favor. As a Nation we are suffering from an appalling situation. We are in the grasp of an allopathic medical monopoly. This commercialized profession controls, or at least influences, a large part of the editorial activities of our country. If a German doctor discovers a serum or remedy for any of the serious diseases with which we are afflicted, it is usually heralded broadcast in the Press throughout the country. But if a discovery is made that is invaluable in character, that does not come through the allopathic channels, it i~ given little or no publicity, for few editors will publish information of this sort. In tne Press of this country the healing art is represented exclusively by allopathic doctoring. The average editor believes that he can deal with his readers in absolute honesty. On political questions he usually tries to tell them the truth, flavored with whatever prejudice he may have. On religion sometimes he is willing to be truthful. And he may be telling the truth as far as he knows it when he has occasion to refer to the healing art. But the average editor usually "side-steps". every bit of news that is derogatory in any way to the allopathic methods of healing. And the readers of these publications rarely have an opportunity to learn the real truth. They have to come in direct personal contact with osteopathy, chiropractic, homeopathy, Christian Science, naturopathy, or other revolutionary methods of healing before they are able to reason clearly outside of allopathic channels. Many of our editors are awakening. They have seen the "handwriting on the wall," and they are beginning to give their readers the benefits of the¡ knowledge that is being presented by the irregular physicians. &t~

ministers, lawyers and especially editors are compelled to use extraordinary care in their utterances. They are always afraid to offend what is usually termed the conservative element-the solid, substantial, stable citizens who stand for the old regime and fight every change, regardless of its nature. A policy of this character may be commendable in many instances. But when life and health are at stake, old time prejudice should give way. The poor, struggling victims of disease should be given every possible opportunity to secure that greatest prize of life-health. Now, take for example the revolutionary articles that we have recently published. Has the editor of your local paper given any space to these remarkable discoveries? Has he made any efforts whatsoever to ascertain whether or not the statements we have made are dependable? Within the radius of the reader's acquaintances there are probably several who have suffered or are still suffering. Among the readers of the paper that you daily peruse, there are undoubtedly a certain percentage who suffer from disease. They are adopting the old style method of treatment which often means lowered vitality.

&fJ

Editors Can Save Millions

T

HE editors of the papers that you read every day can perform a service for their readers that is of incalculable value, by merely calling attention to these simple and yet astounding remedies for appalling diseases-remedies that can be used at home without expense or danger. Some months ago I called attention to a number of experiments that we intended to observe; that we thought would prove beyond all possible doubt the curability of certain diseases through natural methods. The experiments were observed as announced. The patients were supposed to continue the treatment from four to five months in order to complete their cure. Now note the extraordinary results of these efforts. Several of them were in a serious condition. They all agreed to stay a length of time sufficient to effect a cure in their case. Some of them "Were unable to continue the fast as rigidly as required but practically every patient fasted a sufficient length of time to secure a good start on a diet that would help cleanse and purify their system. ~

Encourage Courageous Editors Patients Improved Too Fast T ET

us extend a helping hand to editors of this sort. They are truly brave men. They are not afraid their circulation will drop because they have lost favor with the allopathic doctors. And it is about time for editors everywhere to realize that ~hen they present such knowledge-knowledge that IS often most tragically needed by their readers -~t ~ill be favored by a constantly growing class of thmkmg readers and that these people will be eager to stand by courageous editors to the very last ditch. It takes a brave man to get out of the rut that most of us fall into. And leaders of public opinion, such as

L

UT the average patient did not remain more than four or five weeks. In all cases they were loud in their praises of the methods. In practically every case they maintained that extraordinary changes in their condition had taken place. But the failure of the patients to continue for a sufficient length of time was due to the extraordinary simplicity of the treatment and to the wonderful results which each one of them acquired in tr..e short time they were following it. They naturally reasoned that if they could secure such an unusual change in their physical status within

Appalling Results of Tainted Health Worth More Than Blood Money WILL never forget a victim of this disease that I

I

came in contact with in my early youth. At that time I was struggling for health. I was but little more than an emaciated weakling. When I first met the victim referred to, he was one of the finest specimens of young manhood I had ever seen. I envied him beyond words. I would have given anything for the strength and manly beauty that he .possessed. Suddenly he began to fail. The happy smile was replaced by a ~rious expression that at times seemed to indicate fearful forebodings. It was whispered here and there that he was suffering from this fearful taint.. And I saw him fade day by day, until he was nothing more than a wreck of his former self. And, as I learned since, it was the treatment and not the disease that brought such appalling results. The treatment has, of course, changed materially since then, but it is still bound up in the old allopathic school methods which"attempt to cure by covering up or forcing back the symptoms of the disease. The right way to cure any disease is to get it out of the system. And with syphilis, it is no exception. PHYSICAL CULTURE started out with the very definite purpose of being helpful to its readers to the limit of its power. We want to place life's most wonderful gift-health-within the reach of every one.

ELP us to spread this propaganda. It carries with it clean, wholesome minds and strong, splendid bodies. This is indeed a strenuous age. Ambition has carried us into the vortex of activities that are at times nerve-racking. In our chase for the things that we want in life we often forget life's most valuable factor -health. We are too busy making money. We haven't time to take care of the human machine that is worth more to us than all the money in the world. We are trading health for dollars and for success and transient pleasure. And it is a bad bargain in every instance. What every individual needs is a stabilizer. Something planted within his brain to make him realize the balance that must be kept between the mental and the physical life. We must consider the body in our rush to live the life of achievement, for then our rewards will be of a satisfying nature. And what is more important, we will be able to enjoy these rewards. Most of us work at high tension for the purpose of acquiring pecuniary independence, that we may leisurely enjoy life. And long before we have secured the so-called "independence" we have lost the power to enjoy life. It is no exaggeration to say that men or women who are making sacrifices of this sort are mentally unbalanced. They have lost life's perspective. An occasional perusal of PHYSICAL CULTURE by mentally unbalanced people of this sort would have a life-saving power that could not possibly be valued in dollars and cents. .

For the Man Over Sixty . By Dr. Frank Crane, •

A

LAPTHORN SM ITH. a distinguished London physician, has recently published a useful volume. entitled "How to be Useful and • Happy from Sixty to Ninety." I condense herewith some of the specific commandments he gives to the man over sixty. 1. Cut down the amount of food. Three meals are better than four; but two are better than three. 2. Increase the amount of water. Neither a city nor a citizen can run a drainage system w,ithout a waterworks. 3. Two movements a day are better than one every two days; the colon bacilli in the large intestine are the principal cause of old age. 4. If you want to keep young, keep in with young people. 5. Keep busy. Work hard six days and rest hard on the seventh. 6. When you see an easy chair on a sunny morning, keep away from it and go for a walk instead. The heart grows stronger by use and weaker by idleness. 7. Don't change your lifelong habits at sixty. If you have been a smoker all your life, keep on smoking in moderation and if you have been a moderate drinker all your life, keep on drinking in moderation (if you can get it). 8. Never exceed one ounce of tobacco a week. Never drink alcohol except at meals and never before six p. m., and always w~ll diluted with water. 9. When you are over sixty, don't try to warm a cold bed with your own heat. I t is cheaper and quicker to put a big hotwater bottle in the bed. 10. When you reach sixty, if you have been careless of your appearance before, begin to dress well. I t makes you look better and feel better and you are as well as you feel. A few warm baths a week will keep your skin young. 11. If when you reach sixty, you have a beard three feet long, begin cutting it, off one inch a day. In thirty-six weeks you will be down to the skin. Then shave and look young. 12. Don't worry. 13. If you have a big business, get some young horses to pull the wagon and you sit on the seat and drive; but don't get off the wagon. 14. Do not turn your home into a museum of fine arts and antiques. Happiness, as a rule, is in inverse proportion to the number of useless articles you own. , 15. If you have not a business when you are sixty, either get one or get a hobby. 16. Cancer, pneumonia and influenza are the principal causes of death between sixty and ninety. If you have them, don't give them to your friends; and if you haven't got them, don't let your friends give them to you. 17. Don't go to funerals. The funeral of your friend is sometimes followed by your own. 18. Microbes are everywhere and they are looking for people with a poor circulation. A fatty heart is a weak heart; keep thi~. They are also looking for pale people; keep rosy.

DIET: Natural g:ain (whole wheal flour. no/ural hrow n rice, whole cornmeal).

The chicks of this pen grew at first only a trifle better than the chicks on denatured grain. When this growth ceased they began to lose weight slowly, but did not "go to pieces" like the denatured grain chicks. At the end of the experiment. while only a few grams heavier than at the start, these chicks were still bright and lively. They had ceased to grow, but were not weak and ill, like the chicks in Pen I.

III.

The growth is unsatisfactory. tl'ming into a slow weight-loss toward the end. The addition of potatoes to natural grains caused only a trifle better growth than the natural grains alone. Compared with the denatured grains and p0tatoes the same contrast of vitality was observed as between Pens I and II. I n both cases the natural grain con~rved the vitalitv mc.re than the sli9h!l~ better wC4;nts would account for.

DIET: Denatured grain

and potatoes. These chicks made the poorest growth at the start of any chicks in the experiment. But they did not lose later as rapidly as several other pens on denatured grains. With the exception of Pen 1, these were the weakest and most lifeless chicks at the end of the experiment. Potatoes seem to add but little value to a denatured grain diet.

The above remarks (at left) and the growth curve beneath the chicks apply to the two lower chicks only. The upper chick in the plate went on a food strike early in the experiment and refused to eat this ration. As this chick was about to die he was transferred to pen XII I. The small upper diagram shows his growth curve. the sharp upward tum indicating the change to a better diet. This chick just about regained the weight lost and was but little heavier at the end of experiment than the other chicks eating the denatured food throughout the test. but with the better diet this chick had recovered vitality and was quite lively.

Explanation of Illustrations

T

HE fourteen' illustrations show the growth curves and the chicks at the end of our experiment. The curves all start at 37S grams. (about three-fourths of a pound) the total weight of the three chicks of each pen. Whether the growth was fast or slow, or an actual weight loss. is shown by the vertical movement of the broad white line. Each square represents. vertically. 2S grams change in the total weight of the three chicks. Each square horizontally represents two days of time. The squares on the original chart. against which the chicks are photographed. are exactly one inch. thus giving you a definite idea of the size of the chicks at the end of the experiment. The relative size of the chicks is not fully revealed by these photos. This is because Leghorn chicks when stunted continue to grow feathers at the expense of their bodies; this causes these underweight chicks to be covered with loose feathers. making them look like small boys in large ragged clothes. If you will observe carefully you will note that the chicks that gained in weight are longer bodied and more compactly feathered. Much greater differences were to be seen in the appearance and especially in the action of the chicks when they were running about in the pens. Notes on such conditions are made with each photo. In studying the weight changes on the various diets you should remember that these chicks were fed through an age period during which they should normally have about doubled in weight. Hence slow growth represents mal-nutrition. while mere weight, m<,.intenance. or actual weight loss represents a condition under which life could not be long maintained. The import of this statement will be more emphatic if you will translate the growth curve into the analogous weights and ages of children. In the life of Leghorn chicks a week approximately corresponds to a year for humans. So these chicks which lost weight in the test would be comparable to children who at the age of six years would weigh less than they did at the age of three years!

DIET: Denatured grain

anJmeat. The addi tion of meat to denatured grain for a time caused fair growth. but as in the case of other deficient diets necessary food elements are quickly exhausted. growth ceases. and the chicks rapidly lose weight and condition. The s e c"icks were not in as deplorable a state as the denatured grain chicks without meat. but they were in mIlch poorer condition at the end of experiment than chicks fed natural (ConN .t rl,AI)

grain without meat. This would indicate that white bread and meat is an inferior diet to whole wheat bread alone.

PEN VI. DIET: Natural grains and meat.

We here secure good growth for a time followed by slower growth. whereas with meat and denatured grains the chicks actually lost weight in the latter part of the experiment. Obviously the meat adds a growing factor to the natural grains while in tum the natural grains overcome obvious deficiencies of the meat.

What is stil) lacking is presumable growth producing protein. These kale fed chicks wc.-re in good condition considering their lack of growth. being about equal in this respect to the chicks fed on nothing but natural grain.

and ~ale. The total growth was but a trifle better than with the denatured grains and kale. With the natural grains the chicks at end of experiment were still gaining slowly, while the denatured pen was losing weight. The natural grains and kale show little advantage over denatured grain. We have minerals and vitamines but lack growth proteins. Both lots of kale fed chicks were in better condi tion than the chicks fed only grain and potatoes. or the chicks eating denatured grains with meat. or meat and potatoes.

Perhaps you may not be able to go to work in a brick yard for your health. You may have more important work to do. . But you can get the same kind of benefit from a good system of physical training, perhaps using dumb-bells instead of bricks. You can do what the man in the story did by chucking your bad habits, your ailments and weaknesses, and finding in a system of vigorous body culture a measure of mental and spiritual discipline that will make a man of you in the 1&rger sense.


$100,000 to Study the Flapper By Bernarr Macfadden

T

HE flapper is now to be dissected -and she needs it. There are some things about this liberty-loving girl that we can highly recommend. But we bar cigarette smoking. Col. George Fabyan, multi-millionaire, man of many interests, is worried about the flapper. He says that the debutante slouch must go! That all women should be graceful, and that the majority of us are just pitiful contraptions of flesh and bone. The Colonel proposes to start by spending $1 00,000 in a laboratory that he has installed on his Fox River estate near Geneva, Illinois. We join with every physical culturist in congratulating the Colonel. He is far ahead of his time. Millionaires of today are so busy making money that their knowledge is rarely extended beyond that field of endeavor. Consequently they have to follow precedent when they desire to benefit their fellow-men. The founding of a medical laboratory is their favorite hobby. And by this means they further the decadence rather than the progress of the world. For they help to fasten more firmly on the innocent public the old, worn-out, fossilized principles of allopathic medicine. But Col. Fabyan is apparently ahead of his time. He has some ideas of his own and he is not afraid to support them with his money. Let us hope that his example will be freely followed. The most important factor of all human life has to do with the preservation of the race. The physical status of each generation should be an improvement over the previous generation and the actual facts indicate the situation to be the reverse. Col. Fabyan sees in the flapper of today the mother of tomorrow. If she is flatchested, round-shouldered, a miserable specimen of physical life, her children, if she has any, are certain to be defectives. 52

Wealthy men here have an opportunity to carry their name into posterity to an unlimited extent by giving a lesson to the Government as to what can be done in race improvement. Such a lesson, if properly carried out, should so impress Government authorities that we would soon be giving as much official attention to the building of a perfect race as we are now giving to the improvement in the breeds of hogs, sheep, cattle, etc. Physical culturists could easily tell the Colonel the cause of the defective physiques of which he complains, but he will doubtless be better satisfied if he finds out for.himself. Miss Mary Todd, an exponent of physica lculture, who is aiding him in his work, should be able to present facts that will be of intense interest to the Colonel. Let us hope that the results accomplished in the laboratory referred to will be so important as to be "broadcasted" throughout the world. Weak girls develop into defective mothers and the flapper who adopts the debutante slouch and acquires the idea that liberty means free indulgence in all sorts of dissipation is headed straight for physical, mental and moral ruin. She will probably be so defective physically that she will be unable to reproduce herself, largely because she is not worth reproducing. When the flapper idea of liberty means heelless shoes, a corsetless figure, short skirts and other aids to physical freedom, we can only congratulate her for her good sense. And perhaps this will be the ultimate outcome of the liberties that the flapper has assumed. She will some day "find herself." And then the importance of physical health and the vigor and vitality that insures splendid womanhood will appeal to her mightily. Then "flapperism" will mean vigorous, vivacious, beautiful girlhood, which, in all cases, develops into splendid womanhood.

What Would You Do

In

This Case?

A Personal Probleff! Department Conducted by Carl Easton Williams

HERE i no doubt that marriage i a great urce of trouble. -ot only ar marri d p ople frequently in troubl of one kind or anoth r, but even tho e who ar not married are in Which Would You t r 0 ubI e about the You Love or the Girl que tion a to whom to elect a a futur trouble-maker. Perhap you can h Ip thi excellent young man. who doe not know hi own mind to make hi I ction. "e don't know how many tim you have been married, dear reader, but if many a time and oft p rhap' you will be in a good po ition to tell fr. . T. L ju:t wh re to get off. But first let u read hi letter: I am a young man of twenty-two. Iarriage is my highest ambition. I b lieve in earl~- marriage. when it i po ible. Two girls have come into my liFe: one is the girl who lov me. and the other is the girl I love m re than 1lI1Yone else in this world. 1 am undecided. however. a' to wlli h 1 hall marry. 1'0: i ly 1 sh uld marry neither. The first girl, the girl who 10" . me, I have known almo t my entire life. Her Family i ver~- wealthy and well known socially. She and I lmve been practically raised together. and we have been iu t like brother ami sister. We have been the best of friends. in fact, I hall say that he is my be t friend. Inver have had a friend more' n rou or unsclfi h. l'p to two y~lrs ugo, we were tog th r almost all th tim. \" alwaF hav' 'one to parti and dances tog th r, but n ver did w talk of I ve or marriage. Po ibl~' she thought of it. but to me she seemed iu t a ister. he always has taken a keen interest in very thing that I have donand has been a real pal and hclpumle. and h always has collSid red my pleasur and onv nienee beFore her hand 1 understand each other well, we like th· own. same things. and we get along log ther perFectly. • h· never once gave me the impr sion that sh cared For me, except: . a good fri nd. and iF he did, 1 failed to gn p it. P to my twentieth yeur. I had not thought much about marriag ; I was too bu y with other thin '. n after my twentieth birthday. I met tire girl, and for the fir·t time in my liFe 1 understood what it was to be in love. H r family is poor find not up in th world, and 1 care little about them. However. 1 do love this girl. 'he lik me. but he does not I ve me, at least not in the manner that lhe other nrl does. ,h found me worth hanging on to. for I took her to plal'CS she never dreamed of seeing. she enjo~'ed riding in a high-priced cm, and through me she c uld meet the best people in th town. The more I saw of her lhe bett r 1 liked her. and I had just one ambition-to make her my wife. When 1 became twenty-one, I obtained control of a fair- ·ized fortune which tlk'lde it ible for me to realize my ambition. I ug ested lllarriage to her. but he gave me no definile allSwer. 1 tarted planning a little home, and I had the first girl help m plan it. F r he has v· n' good ta~te. Tllat little home, one of th rno t attractive lillie hom in the toml. was completed ix months ago. Th first girl really plann d it entirel~', and he and 1 spent a great deal of tim discu ing it. As soon as the home was fini hed. the olh r girl took an int rest in it. It was a much finer home than h lived h liked it in, and he got a sudden desire to li,-e in it. and she would mnrr~' m so that sh - might live in it. but not because h loved me. Her fLlmil~' ar very anxious that she marry me. for ther ron ider it a "wise" nUlrringe. a.nd the~' try to make her it lhat wa~·. LInd she at la t ha come to tlmt conrlusion herself. 56

It was only afler a long argument that 1 finally learned th truth. he told me that he loved me mor than anyone else. and that. he had hoped always that hand 1 would marry. That. of course. was a great urprise, and it urely t me thinking. 1 d~ided. to give up marriage for the pr nt. and to put more tLme on my education. But 1 want to marry soon. m people would say that I should abandon all thoughts f marriag until after I have fini 'hed my education. But 1 hall go to coli ge For som time yet, even aFter 1 marry.

Marry-the Girl Who Loves YOU?

C.T.M.

If we may pre'lllne to pa a few remark, ju t to tart the ball rolling, we would ay that the fifty-fifty propo ition i the ideal arranrrement if it i available. nfortunately it i ometime diffi 'ult to know ju t wh n the mutual love that lead to marriage is a fiftyfift~· propo ition. Of cour e, a f rty-nine-fift~r-one, or ev n a forty- ixty ratio would not b 0 bad, But coming back to the ca e of our corre pondent. It would em that the difficulty ari e not only becall e he cannot make a deci ion, but from the primary fact that h i not lire of his own fling.

Alfred W. McCann Says:

"Stop Digging

Your Grave With Your Knife and Fork•J"

T

HE world was startled when Alfred \V' McCann proved by scientific analysis and investigation that the foods we eat are enusing ravishing' disease, untold misery and premature death. In his wonderful book. "THE SCIENCE OF EATINC," he proves. beyond the shadow of a doubt. that Heart Disease, Diabetes, Colds, Catarrh, Rheumatism, Pyorrhea, Constipation, High Blood Pressure, and even Tuberculosis, arc caused by eating i mpraper foods. Foods that are adulterated or over refined. inst ad of adding strength to your body and power to YOtlr brain. actually poison your system.

~o

that with each mouthful you arc JiteraJly digging rour grave with your knife and fork. If YOU would know the trnth-if you would learn the Real Secret of Health-read this remarkable book todayl

Some month after hi addres to the Ainerican Publi He<'1lth A ociation hc had the auda ity to get up in a meeting of the Medical Society of the County of ew )' ork which had under consideration the report of a committ e ",hi h had been appointed to consider the menacing activitie of the birth ontrollers and roast the committee and all the re t of th doctor pr nt for failing to di u s the medical aspects of birth control. aid he: "Thus far every ther a pc t of the ubj ct ha be n touched upon but the medical. Y t thi phase of the ubj t probably concern th doctor mor than any oth r, fOT we aU l.:now that this society contains members who perfoT'm illegal operations and give advice in regard to contraceptive methods." An intere tin" commentary on the d cline in moral tandards contemporaneous with the decline in the birth rate i to be found in the fact that whil ther was one divor c, approximately, to eaeh ixteen marriagcs in 1890, the ratio had incr a ed to one divor e to nine marriage in 1916. Thc'e figure bear ont th tatement of Dr. George "W. 1':0 mak, attending urg on at the LyingIn Ho pital. ew York and ecr tary of the Committee on Birth Control of the Medical Society of th County of ew York in 1917: "It i a matter of common oh. ervation by phy i ian that whcre the exual relation. have been interfered with, trouble b tw en the partner' to a marriage contract i ure to re 'ult ooner or later.

In 1885 ther were 1,808 murder in th nited tate; in 1904, 8.482. 10 the thirty-tIn e year from ] 5 to 1918, th I t year for which figur are available, there w re 131,915 murd r in the oited State.

America, which has the reputation of outclas ing France in birth 'ontrol, also hold the world's murder record. For the ake of elearne it may be well to repeat that no attempt is here made to maintain tbat murder and highwa~- robbery are direct results of birth control in the same way that typhoid fe, er is the effect of drinking water infected with bacillus coli.

Losing 103 lbs. to Music! Wallace Makes New Record Reducing Mrs. Derby in Less than 4 Months

The Sworn Statement of Three Quincy Citizens We, the flndersigned, have k"own Mrs. Harry Derby for years. Her a1llazi"g redllctio" by Wallace records came utlder ol~r a/most daily observatiotl. We hereby testify to the entire trl~th of state1llellts that follow.

AFTER

ASTON I HI G CHA GE BROUGHT ABOUT BY ONLY FOUR MONTH U E OF THE FAMO S WALLACE REDUCI G RECORD

By WILLIAM R.

DURGIN

QUI CY, ILLS.- In a happy little community of hom s which fringe Vine street, I discovered Quincy's happiest woman. All because she accepted an invitation to try a novel way of getting rid of a mountainous' burden of flesh. 'Only last January, she was fat beyond hope. By May, her weight was normal! To readers who are overweight-a few pound ,or many - I shall offer Mrs. Derby's amazing experience, just as it was related to me: "When the postman brought the phonograph record with a free reducing lesson, I never dreamed Mr. vVallace could make me weigh what I should. The be t I had hoped for was a little relief-for I could scarcely get around, I was so heavy. "The fir t few days of the course showed nothing, except I guess I felt better. •After a time I began to lose. One day "t market I stepped on the scales, and saw I had lost twenty pounds. eedless to say, I kept on with the records. Each week showed a little more re· duction, until before long the neighbors all noticed the difierence. I kept on 10 ing right along, and I finally was down to the size my last picture shows." Now, one might think 1031bs. reo duction in only four months required the most strenuous efforts. But Mrs. Derby did nothingextraordinary; she followed the regular instruction that Wallace gives anybody. It was no harder to reduce her than those but ten, twelve.

or twenty pounds overweight-it merely required more time. To get thin to music is really a "lark" compared to any other method of reducing. In fact, fl'. Harry Derby told me his household was frankly skeptical of real results when his wife started the Wallace course, just because it all looked and sounded too good to be true. Thereisnothingto "take," you don't have to starve; just a few movements with a thrill to each-that seem all too short because they are set to music. I gue s it's the sheer funof doitlgit that start so many men and women on the melody method of reducing. But it's the sudden, certain resl~lts-the fat that's played away to the tune of a pound a day-that keeps them enthusiastically at it. and telling others about it. Mr. Newman, Quincy photographer (notice his signature to statement above), took two photos of Mrs. Harry Derby which are reproduced here. Thi is an indi putable evidence of Mrs. Derby's improvement-ju tasthecamerasawit. Ionlywish you could see the lady herself! ot a sign of flabbiness, nor a wrinkle to show where the exce s flesh had been. I am almo t willing to believe her as ertion: "1 can now do anything a IS-year·old girl can do!" I have met scores who restored normal weight and measurements by \Vallace' s novel, and so enjoyable method. My ister reduced by it, so did a brother; and two aunt of mine swear by it. Forty or fifty Ibs. reduction through use of these remarkable records is fairly common. But Mrs. Derby's

achievement-I03 pounds in a few days less than four month -sets a new record, Areyoll overweight? And if you are, why remain so? A florlllal figm'e is possible to a,'yofle who has a pll0110grapll, a"d wilt give Wallace's music method of reducillg a chance. The above should be sufficient proof of this, but Wallace still offers free proof in your own case. Your simple request on the handy form below brings the full first Ie on free of any charge whatever. A regular·sized, and double-face phonograph record, and photographic chart with complete instruction. Pay nothing; promise nothing, except to try it. Results will cause you to send for the rest of his course in a hurry! I Don't ponder another day a to whether Wallace can reduce you. Tear out thi coupon, and let him prove he ca'i. WALLACE, 630 S. Wabash Ave., Chicago: Please send rec rd for the fir t reducing les on; free and prepaid. I will either enroll, r mail back your record at the end of a five·day trial. Na'lIe

Two VITAL NEEDS of the body your daily food tnust supply--A food that brings glowing health and vigor

T

HIS new food knowledge is revolutionizing the meals in millions of homes today. Countless housewives are now carefully planning meals that mean health and vigor. They need such meals themselves so that they may have the strength for their daily tasks-the romp with the children, the overseeing of the household work. They feel their responsibility to provide such meals for their families. This is why women are supplementing their daily diet with Fleischmann's Yeast-the familiar fresh food now known to be a cleansing agent in the intestines and to help build up the waste tissues worn out each day. This is why they provide it at home as regularly as they do milk or bread.

and women are being freed from bondage to laxatives. Thousands today are also keeping their digestion strong and healthy by eating Fleischmann's Yeast. It supplies abundantly the elements which increase the flow of the digestive juices and promote the normal action of the liver. Eat 2 to 3 cakes of Fleischmann's Yeast every day. You will grow fond of the distinctive taste.. Nibble it plain from the cake, take it in water, milk, fruit-juices or any liquid you like. Try it as a sandwich spr~ad, It combines well with soups, sauces, and many familiar home dishes. Your grocer ~an supply it fresh daily. Send for free b-ookiet. telling you what Fleischmann's Y~ast has done for others and can do for you. Use coupon, addressing THE FLEISCHMANN COMPANY, Dept. 7109, 701 Washington St., New York, N. Y.

Some shoes, designed to grip firmly, release with just enough tardiness to slow down a fast game. Other shoes which release quickly do not provide quite the confidence in the grip. The specially constructed Hood outsole will grip firmly and release instantly -the two requirements for super-footwork in basketball. The Hyscore is built and reinforced to stand up under a long hard schedule. The Centre is lighter in construction, which to many is a point in its favor, and will stand up under the ordinary schedule. The Centre is also a splendid all-round gym shoe. 7he CJJayside Baysides are today, and have been for years, the most popular, low priced shoe for school calisthenics, light gymnasium and track work.

Why a Person with a FuD-length Spine is laTe1y Sick . By Hobart Bradstreet, Spinographist and Inventor of a Simple Method of Being Your Own Chiropractor J f your spine

"

measured what it should normally, you would feel like another person ! Younger by years in all your powers. More vital, vigorous, energetic. Scorning pills and potions. Laughing at sickne s. Living life for all it's worth-a human beingful{y alive! But your spine isn't of the length it naturally should be-unless you are one person in a million-and because it i n't, you are not the man or woman you were meant to be. A strong statement? Maybe you think so, but let me explain. The spine, the foundation of the body, is a series of small bones placed one above the other. Between each pair of bones, (vertebrae) is a pad of cartilage which acts as a cushion or shock-absorber, taking up the weight and shocks tbrown on the spinal column as we stand or walk. Since nothing in the ordinary activities of us humans stretches the spine, these once soft and resilient pads are flattened down, become thin and hard as the felt pads under the piano keys do. One's spine then does not absorb the shocks sustained, but tr01urniu tlum Jtraight to the bale of the brain. Then, eventually, headaches. Backaches. «Nerves." Insomnia. Habitual fatigue. Dullness. Depression. When the cartilage is worn down to a certain point, nerve impingement may resalt. That is, two ofthe vertebrae may curve so close together as to tepinch" or press upon a nerve leading from the spinal to an organ which the nerve controls. Then there iJ trouble! Ifthe impinged nerve has to do with the liver, then liver trouble. If with the stomach, stomach trouble. And so on. Chiropractic has awakened us to the number of grave ailments directly due t? nothing else than impinged nerves. . I say a person with a full-length spine is rarely sick because a spine of full normal length indicates cartilage of full thickness and that being the case, the shocks are properly absorbed and the nerves, upon whose integrity all health depends, are free to perform their normal functions. Living more or less unnaturally as we do ill our civilization, our spine needs special

attention. Jt needs the peculiar motion, the flexing, the laxation it would get if we lived as man primeval did. Thus, in order to loosen up the spine-to teelongate" itto take the burden off the cartilage and the pressure offthe nerves. 0 amount ofviolent exercise will do the trick, we know from experience, for often the most inveterate gymnast is a striking case of sublaxation ·of the sine. As for walking or golfing, the spine only settles down a bit firmer with each step. It was the realization ofthe need in my own case of a means for securing complete spine laxation years ago that started me working on spinal mechanics, and led me to the devising of a system of SPINE MOTION, which, judging from the results obtained in thousands of cases, seems to be the answer to the problem. My method for telaxating"the spine is a simple, boiled-down formula of just five movements. either takes more than one minute, so the whole process means but five minutes a day. But those movements, simple as they are, bring a wonderful change-a/moJt itlJt01U{y! I have had many people come to me saying they were in perfect health and wanted to try my motion just out of curiosity, only to be amazed with the feeling of new exhilaration, experienced in one execution of my spinalmotions. Only the other day a prominent Chicago business man, known as a human dynamo, remarked to me after a few days of my system, "I didn't realize until now that I Was only 50 percent alive." I have seen my spinal motions put sick people on their feet in a few days. I have seen many a chronic case ofheadache,nervousness, stomach trouble and constipation completely relieved in a matter of weeks. Speaking of constipation, I have one motion -a peculiar, writhing and twisting movement-that will, in fifteen minutes, in nine cases out often, bring a complete evacuation. My spine motions, in a measure, allow you to be your own chiropractor. And you know what that means! Until recently, the benefit of my Spinal Motions were to be had only by personal visit to me. But, obviously, this restricts the

good to too few. Hence, I have decided to put my SPINE-MOTION method in a form that makes it generally available. I know that there is something in my method for everyone, and I invite everyone to try it. I invite the young and the apparantly "vigorous" to see what difference spine motion will make in their energies and capacities. I invite the ailing to see the direct relation between spinal mechanics and health. I invite men who are ageing prematurely to put to test my statement that a man's powers (in every sense) by nature, should continue full flush up to the age of 60, being only a matter of a sound nerve-mechanism. No "apparatus" is required with my method. Just my few simple instructions made doubly clear by my phocographic poses ofthe five po itions. I promise you who will try my series offive movements some startling re ults in a few days. In less than a week you'll have something to marvel at in the way of new health, new appetite, new de ire and new capacities, If you are not the astonished person I promise, you will be nothing out of pocket-for I return to you in full, the 3.00 fee which is all I ask for my system. The opportuni y presented in this plan will be the more fully appreciated when it is realized that 3.00 is but a mere fraction of the fees I have been accustomed to receiving in my private practice. The 3.00 which pays for everything is not sent in advance unle you prefer. Just pay the postman who brings the package. Requests will be filled in turn. Try "elongating" your spine and see how differently you'll feel in a few days.

DIET: Denatured grains and mil~.

The growth curve is similar to. but just a triAe better than that of the chicks on the denatured grains and milk. An ample quantity of milk seems to supply most of the elements which the millers remove from our grain food. Food scientists often complain that the best part of our grain is fed to cows. Evidently we can get it back in the milk, provided we get the milk.

This diet shows fairly satisfactory growth and good condition throughout the experiment. Milk is undoubtedly the best single supplemental or protective food which can be added to d~ natured cereals. If you will con trast thi growth curve with that of Pen . you will see the superiority of milk to meat. when used in an otherwise denatured diet.

This pen shows the most rapid gains and finest condition of any pen tested. Superficially considered. this result seems to be a contradiction both of our general knowledge of the inferiority of denatured grain. and of the other results of this experiment. Before drawing hasty conclusions regarding this point read the discussion of this result in the text of the article.

He fed whole fr h milk and powdered milk, both dry. and reconstructed with water to equal the c mposition of fr h milk. The growth was approximately the ame for the milk fed in these three f rm.

HE Palmer Photoplay orporation is in the position of a. lawyer who has been T commissioned to find the missing heirs to a great estate. The motion picture indu try "'ttst have new scenarios. It mllst have them if it is to continue to hold its vast audiences. It "'ltst have them if its great studios and investments are not to become worthies. It is willing to pay fortunes for these stories; it is ready to crown the successful scenario writers with fame and maintain them in luxury. \Vho are the e people who can tell a tory? Where are they? To find an answer to these vital questions lhe industry has commissioned the Palmer Photoplay Corporation to conduct one of the mo t exciting searches ever undertaken. \Ve u e the word "exciting earch" advisedly. an you imagine anything more exciting than to find the talent that won the 10,000 prize in a nation wide cenario contest? To dis over in a Montana hou ewife the power to tell a tory and to shower upon her checks for 1500. $2000, $2500. as the rewards of a talent which she did not know she possessed? Can you piclure the surprise and delight of a tah reporter, a private secretary in Penn ylvania. a hicago Red Cross worker, when lifted sudd nly to an earning power beyond their wildest dreams? Or of the inmate of a penitentiary whose scenarios are eagerly sought? These are actual incidents in this combing of the country for men and women with story-telling power. And still the search goes on. Hundreds of thousands of copies of the Van Loan Questionnaire must be distributed this year; will you send for your copy? You may be one of the thousands (ou t of the hundreds of thousands) for whom the rewards of this new era wait.

The Van Loan Questionnairea big new tnvention Not every man and woman can write stories for the screen. In the past many who had no real talent or chance for success have wasted time in fruitless trying. Such waste of time and money is no longer necessary. By an interesting new development it is now possible for you to know almo t at once whether you have any gift of creative imagination and whether it wiII pay you to develop that gift. The invention i a Questionnaire such as was used by the nited State Armv in establishing the qualifications of officers and men in the war. This Que tionnaire has been created with special reference to the needs of the motion

picture industry by H. H. Van Loan, the weIlknown Photoplaywright, and Professor Malcolm MacLean, formerly of orthwestern University. We invite you. without obligation. to send for your copy of lhi que tionnaire. We ask you to co-operate with the new forces in the motion picture. industry by making this free test of your creative talent in your own home.

We shall be frank with you The Palmer Photoplay Corporation is the largest ller of motion picture scenarios in the United tates. It is in business to secure scenarios for which producers will pay large sums. The Educational Department of the Corporation i organized to train men and women of talent to a point where they can produce such scenarios. Therefore the Educational Department must and does deal very frankly with those who fill in the Questionnaire. If your talent is not sufficient to justify you in going on, you will be promptly notified. If, on the other hand. you should be one of the thousands now unknown who are to be important factors in this second era of the motion picture industry, the facilities of the Educational Department will be placed at your disposal if you choose to take advantage of them.

At least test yourself-the test is free Surely this simple test is worth trying. Failure to attain high rank in it involves you in no loss. You have merely invested a stamp and a pleasant hour of mental discipline. On the other hand, success with the questionnaire may open the way to fame and immense reward.

of fresh milk for each pound of grain food. Moreover, they consuIDee at least pound of green kale leaves for each polmd of denatured grain. Very rarely would any conventional human diet contain such large proportions of thes two highly protective foods. The average American probably does not eat two-thirds of a pound of green leaves in a month. To show the force of thi argument we have only to observe from the pre ent experiment the inadequacy of either the kale or the milk alone to fully overcome the deficiency of denatured grain, whereas potatoe are entirely useless and meat, or meat and potato ,almost so. You will find a further point of interest in comparing the effect of meat with the denatured and the natural grain. Meat, like milk, timulates growth becau e of the highly available animal protein. But with the denatured grain this meat stimulated growth is soon checked and turns to weight losses, showing that some es ential element in the diet is lacking. In Pen VII we have the conventional white bread, meat and potato diet and find that as soon as the chick exhau ts the vitamine, mineral or whatever e entials are stored in its b dy uch.a diet wil not upport growth or even maintain weight and vitality. The combination of meat with natural grains forms a much better growi.\1g diet. In fact our experiment. cem to suggest that whole grain (in practice thi means ~Qhole wheat bread) is ?/tOTe essential with a m.eat diet titan it is ~Qith a 1nill~ diet.

Certainly, our t ts , as a whole, how that we are right in advOC<'tting natural ~rain in any diet in which there i any likelihood of a deficiency of minerals or vitamines. But our results al'o indicate that even these natllral grain are by no means a guarantee against an inadequate diet, and that the mere adoption of whole wheat bread in the place of white flour bread i not the whole problem of perfecting the diet. ome of the points brought out by this experiment will be further investigated in our laboratory. 'Ve are now conducting a more direct test of the growth producing value of white versus whole wheat bread. in combination with widely varying proportions of other food ingredients. The results of this test I hope to be able to present to you in the next issue of PHYSICAL CULTURE. We are also beginning our work with white rats, though our laboratory is not yet fully stocked with e:-.:perimental animal of this species. But rats do not believe in race suicide, and, like the guinea pigs in Ellis Parker Butler's famous story, they are multiplying at a mo t a tonishing rate. Do not miss the future articles of this epocal series reporting the results of PHYSICAL CULTURE'S Food Research Laboratory. They will give you definite knowledge of life-giving foods.

This Free Test Has brought prettier teeth to millions The prettier teeth you see everywhere now probably came in this way. The owners accepted this ten-day test. They found a way to combat film on teeth. Now, as long as they live, they may enjoy whiter, cleaner, safer teeth. The same way is open to you, and your dentist will urge you to take it.

The war on film Dentists, the world over, have declared a war on film. That is the cause of dingy teeth-the cause of most tooth troubles. A viscous film clings to the teeth, gets between the teeth and stays. Old brushing methods left much of it intact. Then it formed the basis of thin cloudy coats, including tartar. Most people's teeth lost luster in that way. . Film also holds food substance which ferments and forms acid. It holds the acid in contact with the teeth to cause decay. Germs breed by millions in it. They, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea. Very few people have escaped these troubles caused by film.

Ways to combat it Dental science, after long research has found two ways to combat that film. Able authorities have amply proved their efficiency. So leading dentists the world over now advise their daily use.

Pe p sode]\.t_ REG,U.S,

The New-Day Dentifrice Endorsed by modern authorities and advised by leading dentists nearly all the world over now. All druggists supply the large tubes.

A new-type tooth paste has been created, avoiding old mistakes. The name is Pepsodent. It does what modern science seeks. These two great film combatants are embodied in it.

Aids nature's fight Pepsodent also multiplies Nature's great tooth-protecting agents in the mouth. One is the starch digestant in saliva. That is there to digest starch deposits which cling to teeth. In fermenting they form acid. It also multiplies the alkalinity of saliva. That is there to neutralize mouth acids -the cause of tooth decay. Thus Pepsodent gives to both these factors a manifold effect.

Show them the way Send the coupon for a 10-Day Tube. Note how clean the teeth feel after using. Mark the absence of the viscous film. See how teeth whiten as the filmcoats disappear. One week will convince you that Pepsodent brings a new era in tooth protection. Then show the results to your children. Teach them this way.

A Quarter Million Happy Stomachs Helped toWrite this Story Relieved of stomach acidity in from 48 to 72 hours, freed from indigestion without resorting to drugs or medicines of any kind, restored in bodily strength and mental vigor-250,OOO happy men and women bear witness to the regeneration which this practical science of health has brought into their lives. Let those whose experiences are outlined below tell you in their own simple words how their stomachs have been remade through Nature's curative powers!

"I co

LD hardly believe that an acid stomach could be cured in 48 hour." says G. B. Myers, Keno ha. Wisconsin. "but how imple it is when you only know how to eat the right food!" "My system had been wreck d by nervous indigestion." adds the Reverend H. L. ober of Brunswick, eorgia. "but just one meal according to simole in tructions had a mo t wonderful effect!" nd Loren W. hester, Albion. N. Y.. exclaims: "A miracle could scarcely have astonished me more than thc immediate results in my ca e. From child· hood I had suffered from chronic intestinal congestion. requiring the habitual use of drug. After a day or two under this new program of eating I found that no more drug were needed, and thc r lief has been permanent. "I had come to regard my elf as a chroni dyspeptir- ... is the statement of J. V. Criswell, orma!. lIlinois. "but I now find I have had a perIectl)f good ~tomach all the time, only I had simply been eating the wrong foods. Words fail to exprcs~ my deep appreciation for the truth I have learned." •. ( haven't been so enthu iastic over anything in a long tim I" asserts Mr . H. G. Peterson. of Denver. Colorado.

Crimes We Commit Against Our Stomachs No discovery of the past SO years in the field of hcalth investigation cxceds in importance the disclo ure that th stomach and inte tinal tract are the seat of 90 per cent of all sickness. It means that of all the maladies. little and big. which afflict the human body. nine out of tcn ar directly due to wrollg eati"g habits. We eat c rtain food and refuse others without even a king ourselves why-Iarg ly through habits contract d in early life. without any real comprehension of what happen to those foods when thev get into the tomach I Vet ien e has shown that certain comI inations of food simply will not mix in the tomach; chemical reactions ar formed. setting up quantities of gas and acid-they may be said literally to "explodc" within us, lib rating dang rous poisons whi h ar absorbed into the blood and thus distribut d through all the organs and ti ue of the body. (t is th poison which form the root of nearly all icknes. thc first indications of whi h are acidity. f rmentation, ga and contipation. mo t of us know, ucl1 "warnings" if not heed d often lead to very rious con equence .

Do You Really Know How to Eat? To eat "good nouri hing food" i not necessarily to eat for thc best results. according to modern investigation. Too many foods which we hav long rcgardcd as nutritious havc little food value--or wh n they are combined with crtain other foods. p rhap none at all. n the oth r hand. many foods which we like but have been warned to Ict alon . are not necessarily harmful when eaten in modcration. if only care is taken in combining th m with others .0 that we shall not take into the stomach. at the same meal, food which are wholly incompatible. Just as wrOl'g combination of good foods impair our health. cripple our energi and

weaken our vitality, 0 may the very samc foods when eaten eparately. or when rightly combined with other. make the best "ton';," in the world for nourishing and building up the body.

For more than two years i have worked on this overwhelming ambition to give to the reading public-at least to those who realize the great and everyday benefits of good reading -a set of Shakespeare at a price within everyone's means. Do You Find Little Time to Read? I wi'hed to do something more than reach a eeemingly impoaaible low price. Realizing that busy men and women of today fihd little time to read. I planned to publish Shakespeare in a volume size that would create the de'ire to capitalize idle time-on the street car. to and from the office. on the trains between citiesspare momenta. here and there. downtown and at home in the evening. And rve succeededl Not only i' the price goal met with an offer or 30 volumes of Shakespeare at leas than 8 centa a volume. but the set is publi,hed in the tempting 'ize of 31-2x5 inches in plain, clear ty'pe-the size used in your daily newspaper-volume, which fit easily into the coat pocket. into the desk pigeon-hole. into the woman·, handbag-always ready to enrich the spare minute,.

The Equality of Time There', one big lement in the live, or men and women which all,hareequally-theelement of time. There·, twenty-four hours for every-

one or u, every day Men and women who have gained most in wealth, position and happinesl. are those who have found the secret or best investing each hour or the twenty-rour. With this set or Shakespeare. I feel rm helping furnish valuable time to those seeking time to nlad. A, a buyer or this '1'agnzine. you appreciate the finer. better things in good reading. You know Shakespeare. but you·wi,h to know him intimately as the Master Interpreter of Lire. You may have envied your friends who quote beautirul. forceful passages from hi' great characters. You may have Shakespeare in a beautifully-bound set in your library. But now you may have Shake,peare as your daily com· panion, -a companion creating time tor an in· timate relationship.

How This Price Is Possible Buying paper by carload Iota. publishing one size or book' and selling them. brand new. direet from specially built pressea to you. made p088ible the price of less than 8 cents a volume; a little more than the cost or your Sunday new'· paper. Yet this price is made »08sible only by my belier that there are at least 250.000 wann friends or Shakespeare who have come to appreciate the big and beautirul things in life. found in and resulting from good reading. And when rve round these 250.000 friends of Shakespeare. I will have realized a greater reward than any slight recompense resulting from selling Shakespeare at less than centa a volume.

Can You Double the Health of Your Community? HOW many people die in your town each year? Have you ever figured out on that basis just what your chances of dying this year may be? Would you be in terested in the possibility of doubling the health of your community, and naturally among ot.her things of increasing your own chances for sticking around in the community until the age of ninety or thereabouts? The truth is that there is such a thing as community health and that it may be cultivated and improved by practising a better standard of living-just as individual health may be improved and life lengthened by practising the physical culture life. Framingham. Mass., has shown the world how to do it. Your own city or town can do the same thing. Read about it in PHYSICAL CULTURE for October or November, and learn.

Birth Control "Here to Stay" To THE EDITOR: Permit me to say a few words on the subject of Birth Control, suggested by the article, "Dying America" in your July i ue. It seems to me that Mr. Carter's artiele is one of the be t arguments in favor of birth control I have ever read. He says over and over again that the "be t people," in other words the more comfortable and educated people, are practicing birth control, and that the poor and ignorant are not. His conclu ion i that in order to save the world, the comfortable and educated must, in thi respect, follow the example of the poor and ignorant. They must produce offspring with all po ible speed aDd frequency so as to outnumber the inferior ones who are now in danger of outnumbering them. They must, he says, but the que lion i , will they? And the answer is mo t decidedly that they will not. Birth control i , by thi time, a condition, not a theory. It is already e tablished for good or ill among the thinking, educated people of the world. It is here to stay, because the people who practice it see in it one of the most important factors in makin~ life worth living for themselves and theU' children. Many young people could not afford to marry at all if they did not know how to limit their families. Without this knowledge they cannot give to their children the individual attention, the careful and expensive training for phy ical and mentnl welfare, the many advantage that intelligent parents desire for them. It is perfectly useless to prea h to th people that they ought to have a different viewpoint. They cannot afford to have a different viewpoint. And they will not give up what i. so obviously and demonstrably best for them and their families. If they did, they too would soon deteriorate, tandards would drop and health decrease. The only remedy for the ills of birth control, if there ar uch, i obviou Iy more birth control. Extend thi opportunity to th poor and h Iple , the ignorant and oppre d, and how enthu ia ticnlly they will embrace it. Any d ctor, any train d nur any ocial worker, anyone at all who has had occasion to study thi mall.· r at 6r t hand in crowded districts, can te tify that the maj rity of poor women, of workingmen's wiv , arc only too an.xious to know how th y can ave thelru Iv and their famili from the cur of almost continuous pregnancy, which i the lot of 0 many of th m. The practice of birth control aim t automatically rais the tandard of Jiving. Th re is nothing 0 contagiou a an improv d standard of living. 10 t of us are om what sheeplike. We want to be like our neighbor ~o 'Yhat our neighbors do. II among th~ !nferlOr, of whom Mr. arter peak so bitterly, It should become fa hionable to have mcll families, the custom would spread as it has elsewhere, and with fewer children t\iey would gradually grow more like the superior beings he so much admires.

Astounding Beauty Cay Makes aNeW" Skin in 40 MinuteS!

Here Is the Greatest News About Complexion Ever Brought to America. Even the Dullest Skin Yields to the Simple But Wonderful Method Used Abroad. By MARTHA RYERSON AM going to tell you how a pleasure trip to Sunny Wales resulted in learning a real beauty secret. It is a secret of Mother Earth's: a natural, normal and gloriously swift wa y to end forever an unlovely complexion. I went to Wales with the worst skin a girl could have: one afternoon I left it in the hills! I exchanged it for one of soft texture and full of color. And this is how: Except that I can now let you prove it for yourself. I would never tell the story- a story my own father found it hard to believe! Hardest of all to believe is this: the transformation took just forty minutes I Here are the facts: About the first thing one notices in this southern English province is the uniformly beautiful complexions. The lowliest maid- and her mother. too-has a radiantly beautiful skin. Mine, lacking lustre and color. with impurities nothing seemed to eradicate or even hide, was horribly conspicuous. It was a happy thought that took a 'most unhappy girl on a long walk through the hills one afternoon. I had stopped at the apothecary's to replenish my cosmetic-to find it was unknown. They did not have even a cold cream. The irony of itl In a land where beauty offace was in evidence at every turn- the women used no beautifiers I Do you wonder "I took to the hills?" I didn't want to see another peaches·and-<:reamy complexion that day. But I did. At a house where I paused for a drink from the spring, I stepped back 10 surprise when the young woman straightened up to greet me. Her face was covered with mud. I recognized the peculiar gray clay of that section: very fine. sleek, smooth clay it was. Seeing my surprise, the girl smiled and said, "Madam does not clay?" I admitted I did not!

I

I Decide to UClay" In a moment, she wet the clay which had dried on her face and neck, wiped it away, and stood in all the glory of a perfect comflexion. I think I shall uever a~ain envy another as did that stolid maiden of the hills. Her features were not r.retty: they did not need to be. For no woman ever Will have a more gorgeous skin. She explained that this amazing cla y treatment did it. The natives made a weekly habit of "claying" the skin, quite as one cares regularly for the hair. I was easily persuaded to try it. Had I not done ridiculous things in beauty parlors where many coulet see my plight? We tucked a towel over my blouse. and from the spring's bed she took the soft, soothing clay and applied it. (u we sat apd talked, the clay dried. Soon I experi-

enced the most delightfu 1 tingling in every facial pore: the impurities were being literally pulled out. Half an hour more, and we removed the clay mask. Hopeful. but still skeptical, I followed into the tiny house to glimpse myself in a mirror. My blemisb.. were gone! I fairl y glowed with color that spread down the neck to the shoulders. My cheeks were so downy soft, I felt them a hundred times on the way home. Father's surprised look when we met in the garden of the little inn later that afternoon was the most genuine compliment a woman ever received. In a hasket I had two crocks of the precious clay. I thought father's questions would never end: where did I find it: could I take him to the spot: Iwhat was its action, and reaction. and lots else I didn't know. Father is a chemi t. Suddenly it dawned on me. He wanted to unearth the secret of that clay's amazing properties, and take it to Americal For two weeks we stayed on, he worked all day at his "mud pies," as I called them. Back home at last in Chicago, he worked many weeks more. He experimented on me, and on all my girl friends. At last, using the natural Welsh clay as a base, he produced a compound as miraculous in its effect - only ten times more smooth and pure than the clay used by the pea.ants abroad.

Any One May Now Ha~e This Wonderful Clay News of the wonders performed by this clay had brought thousands of requests for it. Women everywhere (and men too, by the way) are now supplied Forty Minute Clay. The laboratory where it is compounded sends it direct to the user. A jar is five dollars. but I bave yet to bear of anyone who did not regard it as worth several times that amount. For mind, in over six hundred test cases, it did not once fail. It seems to work on all ages, and regardless of bow pimpled, clogged or dull the skin may be. The application is readily made by anybody, and the changes brought about in less than an bour will cause open'mouthed astonisbment. I know. Wben I see a woman now, witb a coarse-textured skin tbat mars tbe wbole effect of ber otherwise dainty care of self, it is all I can do to refrain from speaking of tbis natural, perfectly simple way to bring a skin and color sucb as ature meant us to bave- and bas given us the way to bave. It is so healtbful to use, it cannot grow hair (in fact, its action cbecks tbat undesirable downy growth) and it keeps pores tbeir natural size because it is laid on and not rubbed in, Keep your skin pores clean, open, tingling with life! My fatber bal made I.0u a remarkable offer in tbe next column, Read careJuly:

New Shipments from Abroad! Free Distribution of $5.00 Jars Extended To the public: My first offer of fullsized jars without profit exhausted my small stock of imported clay. But we bave just received more, imported direct from the British Isles. Tberefore, I resume for a time the offer of a full $5 jar without any laboratory cbarge. You may have one jar only fortbe bare cost of getting it in your bands! The expense of compounding. refining. analyzing, sterilizing, packing and sbipping in large quantity bas been figured down to $1. 7 per jar, plus postage. Even tbis small sum of $1.87 is not really a payment-regard it as a deposit. wbich we will return at once if you are not satisfied this miracle clay is all it is claimed to be. Send no Imoney, please. but pay when postman delivers. Just $1. 7 plus postage. Or, if handier to receive jar prepaid, en· close $2: same guarantee balds good.

A. R. A. Hopes to Eradicate Epidemics by Inoculation To THE EDITOR: The nited tales Government is doin~ a wond rful work in Russia in til way of savmg the lives of a million or more starving peopl . But the Reli f Administration has und rtaken to nd Ru in som thing more than food. They propose to teach the people how to live eI n lives, how to rid tilemselves of tile fly, the mosquito and the louse. Their program call for the repairing of wage y tems, improving housing conditions, etc., all in an effort to top epidemics and p rve tile liv of the people. So far so good, but til campaign does not top there. recent dispatch informs us that "A program calling for th.e inoculation of ten million people against five communicable diseases has now been begun by the medi al department of the American Relief Administration in R in. ''Typhoid, para-t)'Phoid (A and B), mallpox and cholera, which has now begun to appear in vernl regions, are tile cpidemics which the A. R. A. hopes to eradicate in thi way. The vaccines are now arriving and are being distributed to the various distri ts, and the assistance of the central government and the local h alth authorities has been enlisted in order to secure the co-operation of the people themselv ." Poor R ill.; on top of all her other troubles, politi ai, ccon mie and ial, now h mu t ubmit ten million of her people to five inoculations f tlle M. D.' of America. Why cannot the . . profi t by the resul ts of th inoculations on our Idi r boy? The total deaths from actual warfare were comparatively mall, but our army ho pitals have been fiJI d \vitil con nmptive and a ho t of our boys have died as a ult of th same inoculation. But our medical doctors are in th saddle and they intend to ride their hobby to tlle bitter end, n matter what the results may be. We may nev r know th full tory, but these inoculations will n t top the plague . onditions may be improved tilr ugh proper sanitation and the dang r of infecti n dercased accordingly, but the real credit will go to the M. D.' and tileir inoculation. Poor n in! We feel rry for you. Your cup of uffering is not yet full.

"I want bim to have good ta te in furniture, books, mu ic, art, play, movi ; be abI to drive any kind of car; play bridge, goll, tenni ; ride the wild thor \\;th baffling ease and dislinction; under tand all about baseball, politi , tock and bonds, and whatever junk it might be useful for me to know about ometime. "I want him to be a stalwart boxer too, so that he could knock down any man whatsoever who might offend me.


September, 1922 othing would thrill me more than to have such an occasion arise. Also, though I don't require it, almost more than anything else I'd love to have him be able to ing in a nice, deep, husky, voice that catches one ihside. Then, sometimes in the evening he could strum on a banjo or Hawaiian guitar, and sing queer, amusing delectable songs, while I'd lounge at his feet, with lots of cushions at my back, draw fantastic pictures, drink orangeade, and adore

hi m. "

"I uppose my ardent one wins out on the stalwart boxer requirement," shc mu ed, "but when it came to good tasteoh, Great Gopher Prairie!" Then, skimming a few paragraphs, Patricia came to this: "In conclusion, I want a husband who has led a life of adventure, I don't care whether he got expelled from six school, or ran away to Paris, or joined a circus, or lived as a tramp, but he must have done 8omething. (I couldn't land a man who had been brought up in a small town, and had always stuck there.) He must have a past. However, above all things, he must be unmistakably, inexorably, and immutably a gentleman, I mean to the extent if he were found drunk in a red shirt at seven o'clock in the morning in the middle of Third A venue and Fourteenth street, he would be as bewitching, as refined, as graceful, as attractive, as unquestionably superior as ever. "Postscript. Besides these requisites and suggestions, he must naturally have money. The idea of a threadbare young couple in a garret with one teacup between them may have romantic possibilities, but it doesn't impress me as the ideal form of connubial felicity."

"I don't want much, do I?" she laughed a he t s ed the book back into the draw r. With a c rtain plea urable apprehenivenes Patricia r called that he had promi ed to meet her wor hipper again this very afternoon. Alter all he might as well pluck a little amusement against the general boredom. Beside she had never encotmtered such a will a his. It was like flint-good-natured flint! ndintable! Very well! He would find out how far he could get with this rna culine determination. She had a wi1l of her own. So they met, as arranged, near Obervation Rock, and almost at once her barbarian asserted himself bafflingly as before. "Better sit down on this boulder-not here!" he decided against her preference. "Oh, yes, you do like this side of the road. Look at that view!" And Patricia at on his side of the road, at there and listened with genuine interest to his talk-about him elI, his work, his purpo e . She felt that thi man had courage, real courage, not a melodramatic parody of it. And yet he wllsn't a cave man either. Just when she was labeling him one he showed superb openmindedness to her ideas, a lamb-like gentleness, a disconcerting modesty. That night she wrote in her diary: "I have heard of a man being so homely that he is handsome. On second thought

Course for onlY Are Women Interested In Themselves?

H AVE

you got acquainted with BEAUTIFUL WOMANHOOD, the new Macfadden publication? I t came in to being with the September number, and is devoted to the interests of women-particularly from a standpoint of their self-development, their happiness, and that health which is fundamental to happiness and achievemen t. It is unique and distinct in its editorial policy, having to' do with all problems that affect a woman's life, whether she is a business or professional woman or reigns over a home. The magazine is based upon the theory that women, irrespective of their interests so far as home and family are concerned, are fundamentally also interested in themselves, in their selfexpression and development. They want to make more of themselves, to get more out of life and to be as happy as a human being may be. There is no other magazine with the same appeal. If you have not got acquainted with it you will find it interesting, stimulating and helpful in a personal and very practical way.

For only . 5 you can have the famous course by which Mar hall tillman has taught boxing and self-defeo to over 30,000 men rightin their own hom s. This ours is based on fundamentah; developed by on of the most • ien tific boxer the world ev r produced-Prof ssor Mike Donovan. for year boxing instructor at the ew York Athl tic hib. Men who hav n v r had a boxing glove on before have outboxed bigger and stronger opponents after only two w ks' training. Aftcr you com pI te the advanc dIe ons, mastering such blows as the B nny Leonard Triple, the Jack Demp y Triple, the Fitzsimmon hift. th liske Twi t, you will be mor than a match for many m n who consid r themscJv s good boxers. Jo eph Amend of Brooklyn, . Y., says, "I have fought three men, each weighing 10 to 25 pound heavier than my If. I made the thre Quit in three rounds, and did not ree ive any punishm nt my If." J. I I. Dolan of the I. . . iJawmlLl says," ow I am what my shipmates all a good one. and th y can't. how I got all the new blows and guard 0 sudd nly." ne pupil says: "It's so simple a hild can learn." That's the secr t of it succ . Marshall tillman r duc s the mo t complicated blow and guards to simpl movements with which everyone is familiar-reaching your hand out for a coin, th br ast troke in swimming, etc. You practi e the movements befor a mirror, and st p by step you ar led

into imilar movements in boxing. uddenly you find your II hitting, countering, ducking. guarding, side- tepping, etc., ju t as though you had a r al oppon nt before you. Aft r you've ma tered the fundam ntal , you're taught all the good blows and guards u d by profe ionals, and are giv n three lively rounds of hadow boxing in which you u e th e blows exactly as you would in the ring. Your training in self-defense indud s 15 jiu-jit u and bonebreaking holds and 14 of th be t wr stHn 'holds-the otch Toe Hold, the techer issor Hold. the Head-lock, etc. Th re are ov r 0 le!'Sons altog th r, 381 pages and 246 illustrations. me stud nts teU us th course i worth 25; oth rs say 50.

FRANKLIN LEAVITT, M. D. 14 W. Washington St.,

MR . W. J. L.-The fact that ~'ou are taking sufficient laxative foods in your own diet doe not mean that your milk will contain ufficient el ments to prevent or cur con tipation in a nursing baby, ince ome foods are laxath'e merely be ',use of their mechanical effect. Mother' milk frequently doe not contain all the nece ary element to maintain healtJl or to insure growth in the child. For this reason, addition are nece sary, either to the mother' diet or directly to the infant'. Discontinue the use of Ca toria and give orange-juice slightly diluted, in mall amount - ay a half to one table poonful two or thr time a day. It i often advisable to have the baby' drinking water alway contain ome orange-juicefrom one to two tabl poonful of the strained juice in a ix to eight-ounce bottle. Additional orange-juice may not be necessar~·. ually no othcr treatment i required. Orange-juice in your diet may relieve the condition.

These delicious whole wheat crackers have been endorsed too by Dr. Harvey \> • \> iley, Luther Burbank, Dr. J. H. Kellogg and other health authorities.

The Real Secret of Keeping Young By Bernarr Macfadden OW long do you expect to live? This is a serious qu stion asked in all seriousness. And it deserves serious consideration on your part. If you are a man or woman of middle age. where do you expect to be ten years from now? 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 twenty years beyond your time. to live to 80. 90 or 100 in perfect health. retaining vitality and power of mind to the very last?

H

YOU CAN DO IT The difference between youth and old age is not a matter of years but of the ability of your bod)' to eliminate- waste and to replace its worn out cells. Just so long as your system can throw off impurities as rapidly as created and replace worn out cell with new ones. youth remains. But when waste matter is no longer eliminated promptly and broken down cells are no longer immediately I' placed. poisons accumulate. the blood Stream grows impure. the flesh begins to lose its firmness--<lld age is at hand. It is obvious then that if you could permanently retain th eliminative and reeup rative powers you had at tw nty-one you would virtually remain twenty-one indefinitelY. "The Real. cr.t of Keeping Young" tells you how to retain these powers-not forever of course bllt for many years lonj:er than you ordinarily would. It is filled with priceless knowledge that you need to know. at magic but a world of common sense. This incomparable book consists of 38 chapt rs sub-divided into six important classifications: Maintaininlt Youth Food and Di t for Deferring Old Age Exercise and Keepinlt Young Life Saving Habits Keeping Internally Clean Basic Principl s of Longevity All exercises and in truction relative to di t car fully adapted to the requirements of the individual who has attained middle-age or over.

J. L. O.-Tho who have bodi markedly covered with hair are uppo d by some to bave more inherent vitality and re i tance to diseases of the vegetati ve organ , that i , tho that have to do in maintaining anim~ life. Whether or not thi is true bas not been determined, but it i kn wn tbat there i no sati factory, safe way of reducing tile amount of bair. In a few isolated pots of the body uperBuous hair (usually meaning bair that has grown wh re it was not intended to be) is many times removed by electroly i , a painful, tedious pro ss entirely impracticable in this case. You will find others in the same position a yourself, 0 do not deny yourself the plea llreS of out-of-door life. The average swimming co tume will cover a sufficient amount of the body tbat you need not fear the gaze of otbcr .

Chronic Appendicitis A. G.-Thi may be a continuation of protracted or wrongly-tre.'lted acute appendiciti , or it may never have been at this tage. Remember, that many ca diagno d a chronic app ndiciti , upon operation, have prov d to be mething else. Taking it for granted tlmt you have this condition, the be t treatment i that outlined for most cbronic diseases-that i , a fast or fruit diet followed by the milk diet, baths, exerci e, fresh air, etc. More in detail, these would be fruit diet of several day ; milk diet up to five or six quarts a day; hydroth rapy would be either hot and cold sitz bath or the heating compr or cold abdominal pack, or all of th e, applied at different times during the day. Exercise could be tbe gentle mas age of the abdomen as well, perhap , as deep breatbing with pecial effort to increase the motion of th abdomen during deep inhalation and deep exhalation. It is a good plan to exhale completely, hold th breath and then force the abdominal muscles outward and inward alternately for six to ten seconds; then repeat the same exercis~ while holding the breath after complete inhalation, The enema i , perhap , the best mean of kceping the bowel open, especially during the fa t and milk diet. Avoid rough, coarse foods, relying mainly upon prune, fr h fruits, pinach, and raw cabbage for laxative effect wben on olid food. At this time al 0 drink no more water than nece ary to ati fy thirst. Careful observance of tbe e ugge tion with po ibly the addition of manipulative pinal treatment will probably eradicate your trouble,

do not desire to reduce. This holds true when the development is really muscular and not fatty. Massage frequently produces a better tone in muscle and circulation and may have a light tendency to reduce the size, It would be better to develop the muscles of tile calves and hip to be in proportion and let it rest at that.

FAT CAN BE REDUCED IN JUST TWO WAYS Medicine. lue Worlble.. and Ce_allJ Harmful

Fat cannot be sweated ou't-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 redeposited elsewhere-It cannot be squeezed out by rubber bands or corsets-massage furnishes a little exercise but squeezing has no effect at all. on ider the above statements carefully and you cannot help but acknowledge their soundness.

The Real Solution Is Simple and It Works Fat enter the body when food is consumed in excess of one's needs; it can be removed "by lessening the fat making food intake or by mu ular exercise. There is no other way for it to et in or get out. Therefore to 10 fat, eat I food that makes fat, or take more xercise that consumes fat--or do both. But above all r member there i no question as to whether the treatment will work or not. 11 other ill of the body may sometime fail to re pond even when the be t known methods are applied, ot so with obesity, The cau 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

Life Full of Interest for This Girl To TilE EDITOR: At the age o( nineleen, having completed the required academic course o( a boarding chool (or girl, I stepped (rom within its portals out onto the thre hold of the world brimming over with accompli hments, but robbed o( the rno t ntial thing in lifehealth. I w ighed Ie than nin ty-cight pounds, mea ured eighleen in h around the wai t, and was a fit victim (or a tubercular sanitarium or ho pital (or n rvou wrecks. According to my physician , I had to und rgo at least three operations befor I could ven begin to be well; on (or app ndicitis. another for ton ilitis. N die s to ,a.\". I wa not only an obj t of pity to my (riends and family, but a burd n. It certainly wa no in piration to hav me around. Th und o( my name alway br ught forth the exclamation, "How m.i erably thin." acation brought me into th air. For (our previous years I had been a hot-hou plant. The doctor. ugge ted that I spend mo t of the cI.'l.y outdoors in order to gain trength. Little by little str ngth came, and very day (ound me indulging in m n w phyical exerci sweeping. du ting. and wallcing to town once a week. aturally. as I gained trength. I becam mor inter ted in social a tiviti ; I joined the church choir, and before I could reali7.e what was happening. I was enjoying all the sports of a normal person. inging and dancing n itated deep breathing. and that is the bridge that led me from the door f death to further health and prosperity. It was not long until I began keeping company, and in due time was married to a very prominent young bu ine man of the city. Having a pr lly home to care for did not prevent my talcing phy ical gymnastics and walks every day. In order to promote d p breathing. I took up vocal pur uit , which previou Iy were negl ted on account of ill health. It was not long before I had applicants for vocal training. With the extra w kly income. I hird a maid and d vot d all my time to exercisc, tudy o( French and pani ·h. and tcaching. I can a nrc you that daily exer ise was th m st wonderful thin' I ever undertook to make m If a chang d being. As health came back to me. my tea hing became more int re ting. and I began to liv a life far beyond all childish dreams. In Ie than a y ar's time, I gained so much that my old fri nds did not know me. My hest became so very plump that others sought my recipe. With th money saved (rom doctor bill, my hu band b ught a touring car. I doubled my ex rcises night and morning, took my surplus cn.sh to th beauty hop, and my 1m band marvelled at the tran (ormation. What I did (or my If, I resolv d to do for other, 0 I added a cour o( d p breathing and phy ical culture to my vocal training. the results o( which were a tonishing. 1y ·tudenls were not only tud nt of singing, but wcak. D rvous women, eeking health and b auty through the wond rful exer i of deep brenthing and physiculture. Having been very succe ful in thi lin of work, I took it up riously. It was only a hort time until I op ned up a studio in the main di trict o( the ity. I walk to the city every morning and return home at four o'clock and have lunch. I can as ure you that my cI.'l.ys are very full and happy. with a nice ized incom from a profe ion that I might term "pastime." Instead of treading the road of an unhappy invalid. I am today, through tbc miraculous pow r of physiculture. (ar out on the road to ucce • envied by my (riend who still plod along in th ditch o( "bare exi tence.'· Last, but not lea. t, my hu band does not com home to a sick. puny wife. We njoy lif to the fuJI text nt po. ible-every day a new honeymoon. PEARl. Hu. EY I~L.-\NOG,o\N.

This Little' Book Tells Why Most People Are Half Sick . All the Time It Is Free for the Asking . By WALTER WALCROVE

Present·day statistics prove that the human race, especially in America, is longerlived, on the average, than fifty years agoAnd there are good reasons for thi With the advent of present day m thod by Health Officer, e pecially in large cities, humanity i protected from many of the disease-breeding factor to which our forefathers were subjected. In addition to this, we are a little more careful of our Ives. We have been better educated by intelligent propaganda to guard against many of the old and common errors. If we find ourselves in drafts, we get out of them. If we notice ymptom of a cold, we immediately try to break it up. If we get wet feet, we change to dry stockings and perhaps rub with alcohol (denatured). If someone sneezes behind us, we hold our breath for a moment (if ware wise-) And yet, the mo t common and persistent source of many seriou ills ha not yet received the attention it properly deserve. This neglect can be accounted for because the symptom of attack are not so immediately noticeable and often take longer to seriou ly affect u than the othersBut it i the amazing fact that Phy ician trace the great majority of human illness to accumulated waste in the lower intestine, the virulent poison of which are taken up by the blood circulation and drag down all our functions, making u dull, nervou, headachy, devoid of ambition-indeed, half tired, half ick long b fore real illness comes. ot only is lack of hard, physical labor responsible for thi', but our daily foods have been refined and re-refined until there i now littl , if any, of th "roughag" in them that helped our forefathers soh' this serious probl m. And no matter how r gular you may be, if you ever filld the n d of a laxativ or liver medicine, you are accumulating this poisonous wa te-not a doubt of it! There is a way-a pur Iy natural waywithout drugs and without fail-to k p the lower inte tine thoroughly free from all poisonous waste and as consistently clean as it must be to promote and preserve good health. That way is the Internal Bath, now known and being used by over a million

progressive American. many of whom hardly enjoyed a well day before practicing it, but are now healthy, happy' and revelling in the joy and succes ,social and in bu ine , which always attend sparkling good-health. Pure warm water, properly used. is a wonderful cleanser, a you know-and in no way ha it b tter demonstrated its great purifyin~ and curative powers than in the eliminatlll~ of this dang rous wa te, doing for mankll1d in ten minutes more than drug could ever do-drug of myriad kinds having b en tried for thi purpose with at best only temporary ffect, mor frequently with non at all. \> hen you try an Int rnal Bath, you are simply amaz d next morning at the difference in your feeling ; ju t as you would if you were pulling a wagon with a tonedrag behind It, and the drag were suddenly removedAnd that, indeed, is the case-the drag has been removed-the physical' handicap has gone. Sound, r tful, refreshing sleep has been yours. Your heart, lungs and blood have had a chance to throw off all impurities without adding any new ones, and you awaken with a sense of refre hing lightne s and c1earne , difficult to describe. Your appetite is keen, your dig tion is improved, you ar enthu ia tically eag r for the duties of th new day-whatever the may beyou feel a though you were r -born. I alway do. You will doubtle s agree that no one can afford to be uninformed in this progre ive age about a practice which has done so much in promoting better health and strength, e pecially when such information is free for the asking. I am authorized to say that if you will drop a line or a po tcard to Tyrrell's Hygienic Institute, 152 \ e t 65th treet. ew York ity, and mention haying r ad this in PH Y ICAL ULT RE, you will promptly r ceivc-without cost or any obligation-a mo t inter sting littl book called "The \ hat, the Why, the \ y of Internal Baths." Thi book shows how imple and natural the method i and will, I am quit ure, tell you scientifically correct facts about yourself tha.t you have never known or realiz d. Why not write now-today-for this u ful information. It is very apt to be useful in an emergency.

I found my elf with om - gay ~pirits, and b fore the train was well-awa~' from an Francisco, bottl w re being pa' d ar und. I was nervou' a a caged wild !~t and suffering from lack of ·1 ep. ad to ay, I yield d easily. Befor long our group was engaged in a game of poker. When I left the train at Ballard, I was un haven, pennil and i k. Torrance was twenty mil from this town and wa r ached by an au to luge. Ju t then I felt too abj t and wr tehed to fa Mary, v('n had I po" 'ed the mean and money to reach her. I walked aimJ sly around th town, wondering whether drowning would be an easier d ath than walking aero s the highway with my ey hut. Finally, my wandering brought me to a brickyard. I nt r d the mill and watched th wet bri k being taken from th e nveyor and plaeed on car , which wer then wheeled to the yard and unloaded by two men, who ·taeked the pallets that held the brick upon boards prad along the ground. Something in the mann r f the men who were working therc-th -ir eheerfuln - ,their exuberan e and their hilarity when 'omoon pa' d a jok --made me nviou. Th thought came to me: if I uld only be lik' them. u id ring my own tatu', I felt that I wa a tramp. I was broke and hungry and without mean of upport. A moment bcfor I had been con idering the garage and ageneie in the town with the thought of eeuring work there. ow the idea came to me, as I sen ed the happine. of the e men, that pcrhap what I needed wa hard manual toil. Th r wa' no man ther with as big a fram as Illy elf. I felt that Ie uld do their w rk ea 'ier than they, and that it might give lIIe back th vitality and phy 'ieal power I had 10 t. I ask d the foreman for a job. He told m that on f the settiug er w wa unl ading ear, and that I could have that job if I thought I could tand it. I work d that afterno n, und r a warm \pril un. At th end of the fir t hour I felt I mu t quit. In that tim I had lift d two hundr d pallets frolll the ars, aeh one holding fifty pound of brick, and I had carried t11em for veral feet and lacked them on the ba e-board. My hand w re raw; my clothing wa wel; m~' eye burn d fr m the w at that wa' trcallling into th m; and th Aabb~' IIlU ell.' I wa bringing into play med like strip and bars of white-hot iron.

F you find an appeal in the above story on the making of a man out of a cheap sport, then you will particularly find in yourself a responsive chord when you read the big feature story next month about "Man Triumphant," which is the physical culture ideal carved out of marble by one of the world's greatest sculptors, David Edstrom. Edstrom is a great artist, in part because he has made it his business to in terpret life-nothing pessimistic, perverse, gloomy. If you can assimilate the philosophy of David Edstrom and his inte pretation of life it may be. or should be. the means of revolutionizing your own personal psychology.

A Big Raise in Salary Is Very Easy to Get, if You Go About It in the Right Way

You have often heard of oth-

ers who have doubled and trebled their salaries in a year's time. You wondered how they did it. Was it a pull? Don't you think it. When a man is hired he gets paid for exactly what he does, there is no sentiment in business. It's preparing for the future and knowing what to do at the right time that doubles and trebles salaries.

Remember When You Were a Kid and tried to ride a bike for the first time? You thought that you would neverleam and then-all of a sudden you knew how, and said in SUl;prise: "Why it's a cinch if you know ho' I.' It's that way with most things. and ltetting a job with big money is no exception to the rule, if you know how.

We Will Show You How Without loss to you of asingle working hour we can show you a sure way to success and big pay. A large number of men in each of the positions listed are enjoying their salaries because of our help-we want to help you. Make ch~k on the coupon against the job you want and we will help you get it. Write or print your name on the coupon and send it in today.

whom mo t popular notions about health are d riv d, that a word of explanation at thi point eems pertinent. To the ature curi t who invariably takes his cue from natural indic , the lack of desire for food in illn , i sufficient ground for ab taining from it. He ob erv that all sick animal are unanimous in their rejection of it; and natural instinct in th dumb creatur i truer to "t.he heart of thing ," les overlaid with the artifi ialities of "civilization." than in the human animal. Again. sin<-'e tho e ure faith and practice believe of atur all dise e ari ing .within the body to be the r ult of prolonged auto-toxemia, or y temic blood-poi oning; due primarily to ob truction in the circulat.ion-the clogging up of blood ve I, apillari , and nerve filamen , whether from chemical or mechanical cau e ; they t.hink the fir t t P in the treatment is the removal of thi ob truction, who e pr en i indicated by the visible ymptom of inflammation, fever, 10 of app tite, t. nlike thc allopath, the naturopath doe not r gard th e outward ymptomwhich 0 alarm t.he medical men and th ir pati nts-as inimical to health. On the contrary, he looks on them a the outward e"lJrc ion of ature' inn r effor at "house-cleaning", at getting out the a cumulat d toxic matter-undige t d food remain and dead c II waste-which through faulty functioning th organs of d puration have fail d to expel in the normal way. nlike the allopath, the naturopath doe not f I called upon to combat and suppress the e friendly fforts f ature, but only to a i t and a qui in the good work of e1iminati n by leaving her alone f r th mo t part: and he doe not combat the lack of app titc any more than any other natural ympt m, for thi r ason: and b cau . o long as the dige ti"e apparatu i functi ning abnormally-a i alway th case in illne . -it d not appear to him particularly logical or en ibl t b introducing additional filth while Tature i ngag d in cxtra-normal effort to clear out the already exce iv accumulations. Berid the great gain deriv d from the complete r t of the dig tive apparatu in the curative fast and from thc ation of further toxi a cumulation, atur g ts additional h Ip in h r housecleaning from th fact that th dig tive organ , releascd fr m th work of dige ti 11 and imilation, become liminativ, inst ad of as imilativ, in their fWlctioning, and help to throw out th poi on throughout the entire alim ntary tract from the ali vary glands to the anu ; and thi is h \Yn in the more heavily coated tongue and the foul breath which appear among the early ymptom in fasting. ince the adherents of th aturopathic School do not agree with the Regulars a to the source of bodily trength, the former not believing for a moment that all our trength i derived fr m the few ounce of food conumed per day. t.hey naturally di nt

from the allopathic dogma that the si k mu t eat in order "to keep up their strength." The source of bodily trength, according to naturopathic belief, i the great Central urce of all life and forcewhatever that may be in terms of ultimates· and the only part played in its outward manif tation by food, air, and exerci e, i in keeping the body a fit instrument for the transmi ion of the Co mic Energy. Vlh n the body become clogg d up with di a e, it cease. to be a fit t.ran mitter of the universal for e; h n the pro tration from weakn familiar in illne . In proportion a the toxic matter i cl ared out of th y tem InJ natural means the trength r turns; and ince judiciou f ting is the mo t thorough and ffective method for eliminating ~. temic poi on known to cience, thi ell.lJlains the eeming paradox of the faster's trength being greater at the clo e, than at the bcginning of hi fast. ow of cour-e, the mighty one of the m dical world, or the majority of them at Ie t, do not a cept thi a a cientifi fact; and unhappily, th p pie have been o train d in unqu tioning faith in th e a the orad of wi dom in all matters pertaining to haIth, that to the popular mind ci nee i never justifi d of its votarie unl they be medical votarie . Fortunately. there came in th fulnes of time in thi ountry, a medical man of the traite t Allopathi t, and f the tricte t R gular pattern. who not only tabli hed this truth di covered and about the urative f t in actual practice, but gave a phy iological explanation of it which ati fi d \tll th demands of cien • and rived th end rs ment of the greate t medical authoriti of England and oUand, and of ome Ie er on in Ameri a; though a u ual, the majority continued to r vile and per ecute th apo U of thi new truth even as the ancient Jew ton d alll of Tarsu .

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 At last, a man has dared to speak the truth,-the plain unvarnished truth. At last, a light has been thrown upon the darkness of prudery and ignorance which has so long surrounded questions of the most vital importance. At last, a revelation has appeared,-a revelation through which more than 75,000 men and women have found peace and contentment, happiness and health. Bernarr Macfadden has accomplished something never before attempted. He has dared pUblic disapproval to tell people what they needed to know. He has dedicated to the young manhood of the world the fruits or his lifelong study and experience as teacher, physical culturi t, and philosopher. He stand alone, the pioneer who point the way through an uncharted wildernes of ignorance the gloriou goal of complete under tanding.

The Truth About the Sex Question People have at last begun to realize that the immense importance of the "sex que tion" will no longer allow it to be hid away a a thing to be ashamed of. V,e are living in an age of plain thinking and frank speech. ubjects spoken of in whi pers ten years past are now discussed freely over the lunch table. Why is it, then, that the mo t important question in the world-the question upon which the future of the human race depends-is kept a dark and mysteriou secret? \ hy i it that so many young people are allowed to stumble along in blind ignorance, often wrecking not only their own lives, but live of others as well, when it i 0 easy to teach them? Why? ing the fearful misery everywhere about him, brought about by unfortunate marriages, separations, divorces, ickly children, and premature deaths, Bernarr Macfadden decided to kill forever the demon Ignorance which made the thing po ible. "Manhood anD Marriage" is the result.

"As One Good Friend to Another" It is far more than ju t a book. It is more than a course of instruction. Bernarr Macfadden himself lives in the pages he has written. His spirit is there. It i a if he were talking to you as he would talk to his own younger brother. He does not preach. He does not theorize. He does not mince matters. Macfadden is first, last and always a man,-a man who has lived the same life as you have, who has undergone the same temptations. traight from the shoulder, brass tacks, that is what he gives you, and it is this plain-spoken sincerity that ha made his book a never-failing source of inspiration and comfort to the thousands of men and women who owe to it their whole life's happiness.

gratefully bestowed on him the rank of Rear-Admiral. So much political prestige, in the editor's judgment apparently, carried extraordinary qualifications for giving "advice;" and the magazine had doubtless paid the Doctor-Admiral a good round sum to inform its readers that America's public men in Washingtonand everywhere el e-eat too much; that "every housekeeper hould have knowledge of the three type-foods, protein, carbohydrate, and fat. anel of the proportions in which the~' should exi t in normal diet;" that "a moderate worker weighing about 150 pound . should take food to yield him f2fj()() calories. but if engaged in hard manual labor, hi requirements ri e to :moo or 3500!" This doctor-admiral had evidently been traveling some in our

street-cars and subways, since he had heard about fJitaminea, which he pronounced "a passing fad," but thought the talk about them might be useful in acquainting people with "the cardinal food elements"-proteids, carbohydrates. and fats! I think it wouldn't be a bad idea, to make rear-admirals of mo t of our medical big-guns, if only we could devi e some way to muzzle them and pr vent their giving advice about diet. Some naturopath advocate a special preparation for patients who take the curative fast; but it eem to me the chief preparation required i mental; to dive t the mind of fallacies implanted by the medical profe ion, and the fear, which cause mo t of the reported deaths from "starvation."

Love and Marriage 100 Years from Now (Continued from page 55)

Oliver and Mary bathing together to the day when I looked with pure admiration at tho e fifty waiting n~'IIlphs. I wish I knew more about th art of swimming so that I could describe the race in detail. I can swim. of cour e, and I had seen wimming races in my time, but anything like the peed of the wimmer of this time I had never even dreamed of. The troke, as well as I could make it out, was not wl1ike what we ealled the crawl in my time, but it was much smoother and more d liberate; and the gli tening bodic glided through the water WiUl an ease and grace man'elous to see. At a signal the fifty bodies cut tlle water almost in the arne instant. I helieve there was never a moment when the race was in doubt. Dorothy took the lcad at the tart and never 10 t it. he glided along in thc water with ut any seemin' effort, but alwa~' widening the gap between h r and 'lar~', who w· h r near t c mp titor. until at thc fini h h had a lead of 'ix or ev n yard . I joined in th hout of acclaim that went up from the thou and of throats. I don't hesitate to sa~r that nothing else in the whole Ii t of events gave me the same pleasurc. In the running, too, Dorothy was an easy winner, howing her elf to be a true daught r of her mother. I am not afraid to venture the opinion that in timc Dorothy will take th award for beauty. lary had the gra to congratulate Dorothy on her victor~' but was tact! en ugh to say that she believed he could beat h r at fifty yards. Dorothy only laughed and patted her on tlle shoulder. The sports lasted a full week and contained many surpri 'es for me. One of the greatest was the di covery that among the contestants were profes or eminent for their learning: banker, merchants, indu trial leaders, actors, actresses, c1er~-men, engineers. architects, artists.

mu icians. Altogether it wa a remarkable gathering. fr. lason told me that it was a notable fact that there was no man or woman who led in the variou activiti of life who did not al 0 lead in the ports. To me, remembering how little care wa taken of our bodies in m~' time, thi was wonderful. In fact. if I am not mi taken.' a man of thought or affairs in my time would have becn ashamed to give an~' time to healthful play, and would ha\'e been practically d las c if he had tried to excel in ports. And now thes m narc prouder of thc honors the~' gain in the sports than of an~' th ~. gain elsewhere! fr. Mason said, howev r no argument i needed to prove that anyone'. brain must function better in a strong. healthy body than in a sickly or feeble one. Certn.inly no argument was needed to prove it to m ,anyhow. CHAPTER XX The ports inter ted me 0 much that I could go on talking of them indefinitely: but there are other thing I mu t peak of. so I must turn to them. Before I leave the subject, howev r. I mu t mention on fact in tllat connection. In my time adults not only ceased to take active intcrest in p rts, but ind d gave up play almo. t as 'oon as th y took up work. They w uld pack the bench to look on at a football game, or a gamc of baseball but they wouldn't dream of playing them ·elves. The r ult wa that b:,' th time a man or woman reached forb' year of age, he or h became fat and soft and actually unable to play. ow your man of affairs and your mother of a family play games with the same zest and enjoym nt that our children did. And they kecp it up. not for the ake of health but for the fun of it. 'When, in m~r time. men and women

When I l' mcmber that the e eventy-year-old did not begin life with the advantage of pre nt day children, I no Ion er mary I at your beli r that cy n two hundred year i not th ag limit. And that bring m to the matter of the advantage of pr ent day children. I agree with Mr. lason that the great t of these i the ab ence of my tery. Tone of the functioning of the body is made unduly attractive by clothing it in ecrecy. Information i giv n to a child \Vh n v r it i asked for, fully and fr ely. obod~' in the e day talks of mod ty, · hame, ob cenity. I ay nobody. but in fact I am told that there are p r OIlS who call them elvc reformers, who would have the old viI day brought back. But the abnormal per on are generally laugh d at, and are permitted to go about thcir work of r forming with ut distllrban ,without I t or hindran . Anyon who dig hi· idcas up out of the past and declare them good becau e they are old and for no othcr reason, i look d upon with pity. On the other hand, anyone with a new idea or even an old one that i llpported by reason, i hail d gladly and given a r p ctful hearing. Another gr at advantage that childr n have now ov l' tho. e of my time i th · chools. In every larg cit~, I am told, ther i pr erved one of the big building that in my time were u ed a chool.

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 telling of the almost unbelievable relief that the exc1u ive milk diet 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 diseases to which the human body i heir begin in th tomach. Some of these letters go into such co'nplete det il regarding the ucce obtained in treating widely pr valent ailment that they cry out loud to be publi hed for the benefit of the thousand similarly afflicted. The following i a typical case,-

Bernarr Macfadden "Fo/A.,

oJ PAg,;cQI Cui/uri'

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

MR. HER ARR MA FADDE • c/o PHVSICAL CULTURE ORPORATION. ew York ity. Dear ir: "The 1iracle of l\'lilk" is not simply an expres ion. but a fact of importance. My experience i . perhaps. worth telling )'ou. 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 wa described a acute indigestion. also frequent sick and dizzy spell . when a tor Oil and other remedies were prescribed and different doctor whom I can ulted at such times would speak of my sy t m being poisoned in some manner. In a copy of PHV IC L CULTURE which I picked up. and for which I later subscribed. I noticed an article on milk. and later in re pon to an advertisement sent for the milk Ie ons. but being from home much aid not make use of the treatment for some time. which however much interested me. Returning from ew York in :'olovember la t I had a nasty sick spell. and concluded it was time to look after m)' health. I took the milk diet exactly as instructed. taking no cathartics. and finally becoming r gular. At th end of a month I had gained in weight seventeen pounds. I then started on ordinary food but did not reli h it. going back to milk. three Quarts a day with prunes. rai ins. dates. which seemed to satisfy every demand of the appetite. my wight 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 neithe.r since November. but just a gJass of milk at meals. 1 am wonaering if wings will come; at any rate I have had no sick spells since and am hoping. Aft r ceasing Ihe full milk diet constipation returned to some extent. when I sent for a copy of "Vitality Supreme," and am now Quil regular. Meeting myoId doctor this morning. he remarked how well I was looking. and I told him I had discovered a fine new medicine. He ask d what it was and I replied. milk. He said." tick to that and )'011 will add years to your life." Is there not somewhere the lament. "If I had only been told before." Very sincerely your.

September, 1922 admirable character, she nevertheless accepted as final my marriage to Dorothy, and gave up her foolish efforts to interfere with our happiness. She married a civil engineer with a mind as severely mathematical as her own, and had one child-a girl-by him. A few years later they separated, and she devoted to her daughter such time as she could spare from her activities a a reformer. One after another she took up the wornout, discarded ideas of the past and did her best to convert others to her way of thinking. Among other thing ,she adopted the old. dreadful notion that a parent was the arbiter of its child's destiny. She did her utmost to make her little Mar~' a mathematician; but. as it happened. little Man' had not that sort of brain, and wa 'nearly ruined in the process. She is now a market gardener, and occasionallv writes ver -some of them almost poetry. Her vegetables. howe" r. are notably good, and have won many prizes for her. I am happy to be able to say that William lived long enough to see that while Dorothy and 1 fell in love in an instant. we remained in love and even grew in love as the years went b~·. Al 0 he lived long enough to see Dorothy fulfil his prophecy that he would receive the national award for beaut~·. he was the mother of two children at th time: and she was awarded the crown of beauty three times after that. '\\e have four children now, two girl and two boy : and we would dearly love t.o have at least two more. And we would have them but for the unfairness of having more than our share. That was one of the thing William was di sati fled with. He aid he didn't think there could be too many children like ours. He did take a different view of it. however, when I howed him that condition were different now than in hi time, when three out of five children died of neglect. di ease or und rnouri hment. And that. moreover, accidents in hazardou occupations and war removed a large percentage of the children who grew to adult age. "I see," said 'Villiam. "The world would soon be overpopulated if you didn't control the production of children. Good graciou ! when 1 look back to the evil day of my ~'outh, I realize that there was constantly oing on what could fairly be called a laughter of the innocents. What stubborn fool we were!" Yes. I agree with him, they were . tubborn. However, they grew out of 'that: and the result is the good world we now live in. When is surgery necessary? I t is thought to be absolutely required in a severe case of gallstones. But you should read an article in PHYSICAL CULTURE next month on non-surgical or bloodless technique for the removal of gall stones and other internal disorders usually thought to require relief by aid of the knife.

Wha Would You Do 10 This Case? 'olltinued from page 56)

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 the Man You Love, to Bear Him Children, to Make Hi:n a Happy, Comfortable Horne and Then Live Out Your Days Secure in the Deep, Abiding Love of a Faithful Husband and Surrounded by Loving Considerate Sons and Daughters. Yet, when you read the papers and the myriad account of paration, cli"orce, scandal and misery with whi h their column are filled you cannot h Ip but feel a deep concern at the pitfall that border the path of wedded happine accounts that well may cau the toutest heart to quail, th tronge t confidence to weaken.

In Knowledge There Is Happiness However. keep this in mind-Ilrtre is IIolhillg wrO/'g wilh marriage-upoll marriage is based lire home. alld the home is the fo ...,datiO/, oj our "alio". But. like all other gr at institutions devised by natur for the good and protection of the human race. it is subj t to a well d fined set of natural laws that must be obeyed. Therei" lies the whole

secret oj happy or ullhappy marriage.

n til recen tl y th re wa some excu for women marrying with no knowledge of the responsibiliti of wifehood because a vulgar prudery had thrown a den black wall of ignorance around everything having to do with marriage. a wall that kept girl and young women from learning before marriage the thing that ev ry woman must kllO'lu in order to intellig ntly become the wife of the man she loves and the mother of b autifully healthy children.

Ignorance Is No Longer Excusable B rnarr i\la fadden. fath r of Physi al ulture. has written a wond riul book for th v rlasting good of womanhood entitled. "\Vomanhood and Marriage" which is now available to ev ry girl and woman. married or single. who sincer Iy wish s to make her marriage. her hom . and her childr n so ideally perfe t that th re i nothing I ft to be desired. \Ve know no betler way to give you an idea of the ope. the value. the ab olute omp) tenes of this monumental work than to print the hapter heads. A you r ad th adjacent list of h adings you will understand why so many thousands of women consider "Womanhood and Marriage" the greatest singl factor for good. and for permanent happiness that has ever ntered th ir live.

I have lived in some of them and find nothing to complain of in either sex. I do not think you will have to travel far to find a woman who wants just one husband.

Find Out What's Under the Paint To TnE EDITOR: A ycar ago my attitude was this: "The woman who is to become my ,,;fe must not paint, wear high heel or a cor t. he must be intelligent and far uperior to the girl of today." he wa not to be found. Iy idea of marrying was near extinguished. And thenHow well I remember that day I met her. urely he was a modern girl. High heels she wore and the color of her cheeks was surely Dot all her own. But beneath th se outward signs of a modhe had ern girl I found a hcart of pure gold. simply followed the present-day lead. Today she knows physical culture and together we plan a future home along the practical lines we have learned from the pages of your magazine. " incerity" don't give up hope. Among some of tho girls you meet from day to day ~'ou will at last find one who heart will be your own and who ,,;11 be a companion and pal as well as wife, and happy will y.ou be, for therein is joy un peakable.

How I Manage My Boy Friends To TOE EDITOR: Ko one can tell me that "the clean-minded, elf-respecting and reasonahly mode t yonng women find themselves left out in the old becau the young men of today \\0;11 have nothing to do ,,;th them." The trouble ,,;th mo t girls is that they don't know how to handle the boys the right way. I am seventeen and very popular \\o;th young men, and have never been kissed. When I entered high scbool three years ago, the boy began to invite me to dancing parti , etc., and my mother gave me a big lecture. We have always been pals and I believed ev ry word she told me. Therefore I promised I would prove that a girl could be popular and still be self-respecting and clean-minded. I have had several experiences which might have led me on the "TOng road if I hadn't reh did not ceived my lessons from mother. SlIy don't do this or that. he told me in plain language what thi and that might do to me. he also gave me her seer ts of making and holding friends. Before saying anything else let me say that a girl must po itively have one girl fri nd to whom she can pour out the contents of her heart. H he is lucky enough to find that olle to be her own mother, who can keep secret all the nonsense that is told to her, then he too can how tbe world that a clean-minded girl can have all the boy friends she can handle. I remember the first auto ride. We were having a jolly time when suddenly he put his arm around me and was ready to kiss me. I didn't get angry or talk loud enough for the fr nt seat couple to hear, but just looked at him with a mile and took his arm away. I told him how I had promised to help put me repectable girls on the map, and asked him if we couldn't be pal without being illy. " I ' had a heart-to-heart talk right th n, and when I came home the next day from school I found a letter from him asking me a dozen times to forget, and how very, very much h honored me for talking to him as I did. In that SlIme leller he invited me to the next hool party. We never brought up what happened in the auto. We had a jolly good time at the party. That very evening he invited me to join hI family on an outing the n xt w k. (Hi mother told him to invite

me.) Some bo~'s might like th pooney kind to play with, but they don't take them home to their motbers. I have been fortull1lte to meet several mothers and can proudly say that after meeting their motbers we are better friends than ever. One evening I met one of the boys who, I knew, was always ready to ki and poon, hut I accepted an invitation to a party. During intermission he tried to treat lD as he did other girls but I just told him my ide of the story. I refused dancing ,,;th other and he asked me why I told him I enjo~'ed his dancing very much and knew quite well I would never have an invitation from him again, as I was not hi tyle. H ju t looked at me and said: "Ju t wait and .' hortly after that very bo~' or youllg llIall invited me to a big dinner party. I never had anyone treat me so respectfully. After seeing me home, he told me "what a treat it i to be with a girl like you. Anyone i proud to how you to his friends." He and I are the be t of pals to this day, and to hear his fine remarks about me. makes me wonder why more girls don't try to have others peak so of them. I guess girls like "The modern girl" who say "that the price they ask in return for a show, dinner or dance i too darn much," don't understand that hig boy are only little boys grown tall and must have a little fu made over them. But I never run after any. Let th m get acquainted ,,;th ~'our home. H you bave one like mine, where moUler i til lcader who opens the whole house for our plea ure and sees that everybody i entertained, I gu you'll not have to ask them to come again for they alway ask us when the~' call come again. far I have never 10 t an~' ~'oung men friends that I wanted to keep. I don't want to brag about myself or I would sign my name to this but I have proven for three years that a higlUy respectable girl is much wanted by tbe boys in our town. Boys don't really like bobbed hair, paint or gay ho iery. Many boy tell m "Don't ever bob your hair, don't you ever put on gay hose." They hate a painted fa . 1£ my cheeks are ro ier than usual they ask me if it i all mine, and when th y find out it is they seem so pi d. You don't need paint if you live a phy ieal culture life, as I do. Ju T )IE.

Why ot "Motherhood" as a Profession? EDITOR'S ~OTE:

The follo,,;ng letter opens up not a ,peCUlation. but wbat seems to us to be a very interesting business PO' ibility. t..:nquestionably there are many women fitted by nature to adopt as a prof ion the busine of earing for and raising children who have no mother~, or whose mothers are not in a positi n to give them the care and training that they nd. The capacity for reproduction does not mean that a woman i in all {lIses uited to dom tic 1i£e and th care of babies, and ~'et such a woman may be po se ed of intellectual powers or artistic talents wbich would make it desirable that her family strain should be perpetuated. In many cases sheer dista te for domestic life and di inclination to be tied down with babies prevents such women from having children. 1£ they could bring their children into the world, to be cared for by omeone else especially fitted, there migbt be les of the birth restriction among the better cia es that i now generally d plored. The woman who lov babi and ha made a tudy of ehild-care nlll~' make a much better mother for a particular child than its own mother. Therefor, placed on a ba i of proper remuneration, there hould be an opportunity for a woman like our present corre pondent to earn her living in ju t tbe kind of work for whi h he is ideally fitted. or course we cannot publi h in this column letters of all tbo I' who might care to undertake such a service. We are publi bing this one because it pre ents a vital idca. The cia ified adverti ing departm nt of PUY leAL

A little over a year ago, there appeared an article in P:ny ICAL ULTURE which wa writt n by a phy ician, on this very subject. "top Food Poisoning and urc' erves'-I Did," by Thomas lark I-Iinkle, M. D., Oct. 1920, P. . As a ure for "nerv "he advised the abolition of all meat, eggs and sugar in any form. He based hi conclu ions on, I belie\' , one thousand en . I said above, I had made this discovery before reading the article. Though I now eut ggs \\;th impunity. And, by watching myIf, I cun OCCI\ ionally cut meat and candy. But-and this is the proof of Ule whole malter, if I unduly indulge in candy (that i ,indulgen for my particular case) Ute next day all the old inclinations toward irritability come back! however, I have myself Kno\\;ng Ute cau under control. And I will add, in triet ju tice to my If, that the lap are very, very few. I know my limit. But I can po itively change my di po ition in twenty-four hours! imple, though, when you have the an wer, i n't it? H re' some mor advice. Don't try to aoollte and ehallge the 8ubjccJJ These are your own words. You m an well, I know. But you are making a big mistake. Just quietly, cheerfully, and in the mo t matter of fact fa 'hion as though it mad no difference in any way and a: though you had no emotion whatever in the matter, leave the room or leave the hou . Inv nt orne logical rea on for your presence elsewhere and ca.ll a cheerful good-bye as j'OlI go. Your wife will probably hate you for a f w minutes (remember that I am speaking from experience) but he will recover mucll ooner than if you try to alleviate matters. Bear in mind that Sll h people are iek and uffering. ientally, I mean. A I said in the beginning, you and the dear little lady both have my sympathy and my very good wi hes. May the Divine Intelli. istance of som gence, not forgetting the good sound common sense, direet you boUl to A. F. a happy solution.

How to Compel Your Wife to Take Up Physical Culture - Use Indian Clubs On Her To THE EDITon: .

Editor's Note: Why not say it with music? Get some phonographic records which have an irresistible rhythm. and see if she can keep her feet and arms still when she sees you dancing through morning exercises to music. Get her interested in dancing-classic, fancy, acrobatic, ballroom - any old kind.

If you want plenty of thick, beautiful, glo sy, silky hair, do by all means get rid of dandruff, for it will starve your hair and ruin it if you don't. The best way to get rid of dandruff is to di olve it. To do this, just apply a little Liquid Arvon at night before retiring; u e enough to moi ten the scalp, and rub it in gently with the finger tips. By morning, mo t, if not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more application should completely remove every ign and trace of it. You will find, too, that all itching of the scalp will top, and your hair will look and fe I a hundred times better. You can get Liquid rvon at any dnlg store. A fourounce bottle is usually all that is needed. The R. L. Watkin. Co., Cleveland, Ohio

Analyze Your Eating Habits! You Will Be Shocked , But

It May Save Your Life. The wonderful chemistry of digestion and assimilation 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 necessary food elem.: ts in proper proportion, how much and how often to eat, how to distinguish 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 determines 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 whatever nature. It will not contract disease nor will it permit any hereditary weakness to develop into active state.

realize more truly 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 subject 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 insurance 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 recl'ives exactly the nourishment it should have. By following its teachings you avoid all of the unhappy consequences of dil'tary errors that are killing countless thousands. If you have your own best interest and the interests of those you love at heart, you will wish to examine a copy first hand. AII 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 wiJI 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 nauseated or contract diarrhea. That kind of bad food combination you recognize because it camlot be ignored. But, do you recognize the dozens and dozens of other food combinations that are far worse for you because while poisonous to the system are not suffi iently 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 insiclious 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 mi takes in diet, you would

Fighting Mad (Continued from page 47) struggled, 1 felt that 1 was being drawn nearer, ever near 1', to .its open door. where Smythe and Eleanor awaited me with white and tragic fac . "I will take it," 1 eri d wildly, "I wiII take it! Be quick and lead me there!"

CHAPTER L Soon Jenkins and 1 were on the treet, walking side by side. 1 saw nothing of the crowds about me, nothing of the multitude of face , for the cloud above were peopled with a horde of phantomshouting, whi pering: "He is going home to-day." But 1 was careful not to join them in their shouting: or in their dancing; or in the waving of their blaek banner in the air; or in their laughing: or in their crying: or in their whispering: "He is going home to-day"-becau e 1 knew the man beside me would never understand, could never under tand. 'Ve turned the corner. There was the hou e, smiling in the sun hine. But 1 never topped, never hesitated, for the mad music still echoed in the heavens, and the mad multitude, dancing faster and faster, seemed rejoicing in my homecoming. But as we waited for the door to open, the music died out; and the dancers, now quite weary, wrapped themselves in fleecy clouds and soon fell fast a leep. The vi ions vanished. Then 1 trembled, then 1 would have retreated, had not Jenkins held me by the arm. A servant opened the door. "Yes, sir; Mr. Smythe i in," he aid. And then, with a look at me: "WiII you go into the drawing-room, Mr. Jenkin ?" " 0, we'll stay out here in the hallway. Tell Mr. Smythe 1 want a few minute • conversation with him." .., ery well, sir." How familiar everything was--from the grandfather' clock, ticking out the econd " to the winding tairca e, at the top of which was myoId room. 1 began t.o wonder if th e inanimate objects recognized me, when human beings had failed. Somehow 1 felt that they did. At any moment 1 expected to ee all the furniture come trooping out into the haII to greet me. The clock was mumbling the econds in its monotonous monotone; but 1 felt that it knew me and was wink· ing slyly, keeping my ecret only under protest. At last heavy lagging footstep sounded on the tair; and myU,e' bulky figure could been de ending lowly. He approached u un ·teadily. Although 1 could not ec hi face distinctly, 1 detected a strong smell of whiskey on his breath. "So it's you, Jenkin ," he said in a husky voice. "Step in here whE.re there's light. 1 hate the damn gloom of this hallway."
