Is this correct? essentially democratic. struggle to become useless. The trouble is not with the mothers, but with the children. Democrats are born; aristocrats are made. or imaginary advantages in social-climbing, but children are too human. Children, if left alone, struggle to become useful. From this the conclusion is drawn that rich society women Children are Adults may see the real Social-climbers Tt takes con- siderable training to spoil children, and usually they cannot be turned into snobs without a well-equipped finishing school. That rich women want the society of children is proved by their love for dolls and dogs, but it is the children who are unwilling to make the necessary sacrifice. An Old Man at Fifty — —A Young Man at Seventy |The Remarkable Story of Sanford Bennett, a San Francisco Business Man, Who Has Solved the Problem of Prolonging Youth HERE is no longer any occasion to go hunt- ing for the Spring of Eternal Youth. What Ponce de Leon failed to discover in his world- famous mission, ages ago, has been brought to light right here in staid, prosaic America by San- ford Bennett, a San Francisco busi- ness man. He can prove it, too, right in his own person. At 50 he was partially bald. Today he has a thick head of hair, although At 50 his eyes were weak, Today they are as strong as when he was a child. At 50 he was a worn-out, broken-down, decrepit old man, Today he is in perfect health, a good deal of an athlete, and as young as the average man of 35. All this he has accomplished by some very simple and gentle exercises which he practices for about ten minutes before arising in the morn- ing. Yes, the exercises are taken in bed, peculiar as this may seem. As Mr. Bennett explains, his case was not one of preserving health, but one of rejuvenating a weak middle-aged body into a robust old one, and he says what he has accom- plished, anyone can accomplish by the application of the same methods, and so it would seem, All of which puts the Dr. Osler theory to shame. There isn't room in this article to go into a lengthy description of Mr. Bennett's methods for the restora- tion of youth and the prevention of old age. All of this he tells himself in a book which he has written, en- titled “Old Age—Its Cause and Prevention.” This book is a_com- plete history of himself and his ex- periences, and contains complete in- structions for those who wish to put his health and youth-building methods to their own use. It is a wonderful book. It isa book that every man and woman who is desirous of remaining young after passing the fiftieth, sixtieth, sev- enticth, and, as Mr. Bennett firmly be- lieves, the one hundredth milestone of life, should read.
