What I Learned About Old Age By ByramC. Kelley, A.M.,L.L.D, | ERTAIN new at facts about old age, recently dis- closed to me, consti- tute the most start- ling information I have ever received. I am 40 years old my- self. I had begun to wonder if I would soon begin to “break” —to lose my old-time pep and aggressive- ness, my stamina and resistance to disease. I wondered if I would soon be subject to the class of ailments which seems so pre- valent among men past 40, Then through a mutual friend, I made the acquaintance of a member of the American Associa- tion for the Advancement of Science, who has recently brought to light most inter- esting facts about the peculiar conditions common to men past middle age. Why Many Men Are Old at 40 I had often wondered why so many men begin to lose their vigor and alertness when they are scarcely out of their 30’s— yet others, at 60 and 70, seem tobein the prime of life. There must be some reason for this difference. And I found out ex- actly what this reason is, 65% Have Gland Trouble I have learned that 65% of all men past a certain middle age have a disorder of a little gland, called the prostate. And pros- tate disorder is not only the direct cause of much distress, often necessitating oper- ation, but it displays itself in many parts of the body, mental as well as physical. Common Middle Age Ailments Here is an important cause for many ailments which heretofore have been simply taken for granted as “old age” symptoms—sciatica, aches in back, legs and feet, frequent nightly risings, nervousness and irritability and frequent dizzy spells indicating high blood pressure; and I learned how, by an astonishingly simple new method that these disorders would be eliminated in many instances in a short time, without drugs or operation —a treatment that reaches this gland directly—yet is so convenient that any one can apply it in their own home. 10,000 Men Find Relief But most surprising of all, I find that 10,000 men have al- ready found relief, Statesme bankers, lawyers, doctors, ir. every section of the country are using and endorsing the method. I read many letters. One was from a man in Colorado, “73 years young is my age,” he wrote, “yet for years I suffered with prostate trouble. Used medicine to no avail—had about given up 73 Years Young hope when a doctor recommended your treat- ment.” Just think ofa man 73 old being restored to the health and buoyancy of youth. And it is within the reach of every one. There are no drugs, no books, no electric rays. All Explained in FREE Book If you are troubled with any of the disorders mentioned, if you have chronic constipation or prostate trouble, you should send for a vitally interesting free book, written by this scientist, called “Why Many Men Are Old at 40.” It de- scribes this splendid treatment and shows how you may regain much of your youthful vigor and be free from certain disorders. No obligation. But write at once—the edition is limited. Simply mail request to The Electro Thermal Company, 6930 Main Street, Steubenville, Ohio, the concern ithat is distributing these books for the author. KOMICS FOR THE. KIDDIES (After the approved newspaper style) Yyou'vE BEEN OUT ALL NIGAT, You POOR FISH Hf wHat’s iT TO Yy You, YOu BiG B i \ (TAKE THAT, K\ | You SAP y) 7 ccfa™ The Ravings of John McCul- lough Strindberg (Continued from page 10) is laboriously kept in the background throughout the earlier part of the eve- ning, and the eventual revelation that the supposed crook upon whom the play- wright has loaded suspicion with a steam- shovel is in reality no crook at all, but an eminently worthy fellow. All this, true enough, one might again swallow were the author a sufficient humorist, but Hamilton’s humor is a bird of very melan- choly plumage. In addition, the com- pany gathered together to deliver the play is, save for Lyn Harding and Lillian Kemper Cooper, distinctly of a provincial stock company flavor. And John Har- wood’s direction is badly in need of a compass. IV norf& Cuartor’s “Revue of 1924,” brought over from England by the Selwyns, is very bright and lively enter- tainment, pleasantly free from the hack- neyed vaudevillisms that find their way into the average home-made Broadway revue. In Gertrude Lawrence it has the most engaging and talented of present- day British music show entertainers; in Beatrice Lillie, an amusing female carica- turist; and in Jack Buchanan a juvenile who has not allowed his good looks to do all of his work for him. The Selwyns, 24 further, have laid in some rather better scenery and fixtures than customarily find their way into London shows of this kind, The only disappointment is the much heralded chorus. For the last month I have been seeing in the Sunday roto- gravure sections photographs of very tasty sweet ones announced as “the Zieg- feld girls of England” and billed to make their appearance in the Charlot exhibit. But when the curtain went up I couldn't find them, although I had in high antici- pation brought along a pair of extra strong binoculars. True enough, I was able to spot two girls who were anything but offensive to the eye—one of these, in deed, was so fair to look upon that my companion for the evening fell out of his chair trying to make out her name on the program in the dark—but the rest belied the rotogravure evidence. If there is one thing that the chorus of a music show ought to have it is thin legs, and this chorus, with the two notable exceptions mentioned, failed to have them. The most diverting sketch of the occa- sion is called “Inaudi It first shows the actors mumbling their lines and then, following the complaint of the critics after the opening performance, shouting them at the tops of their voices, a dying man being the loudest yeller of all. The show, all in all, however, is La Lawrence’s. She is a most fetching per- son. —George Jean Nathan. comicbooks.com Tl Jove-an clumsil eager t the lad roaring was @ ‘ sweeth the wl make | subtler after ¢ Austris cops tl ing bet and re from Austri: to mak picture is fore aged | as the picture E W! strata have y in whi matte! aline. the the eq may | thoug] are Wi howev sembl crimin more ] we sit thrille merry “Thre pictur screer ahan Black brows He's crimi colleg wasn Black the“ Poor the | monk Be crook tend ture bya inclu the ; Edd had awa; the
