"A boy and lived with his father In their

GROWING OLD GRACEFULLY.
People Should Live 100 Years and Enjoy
Life All the While.

"To grow old gracefully" says the we'll
known DR.. Gardner, "is not the common lot OF
all. With advancing years come increased in
nrmities, but they are by no means unaveid-
able and their presence is due to failure to keep
I'D to their work the various organs Of the
body. The study OF the body by scientists
furnishe; unreasonable evidence that the
duration OF human life may be prolonged TO
100 years"
So saws DR. Gardner and yet what more com
mon than TO see a prematurely aged, withered
and broken down man. or pale, weak and
emaciated old lady. The spirit IS broken all
ward only TO death The saddest thing Of all
Is that this premature age and breaking down
Is needless. II can easily be avoided by little
care and assisting nature just little, and 1t Is
upon this point that DR.. Gardner again speaks
most clearly.
He says: "scence, common sense, and all ex-
perience testify to the benefits 70 be derived
from the use Of alcoholic stimulants." 1t
should be remembered, however, that they
must be pure, and that OF all stimulants, whis-
KEY is preferable. The word whiskey is de-
rived from an ancient word meaning water Of
life" and 1t is most appropriate name. al
though there is SO much that Is unworthy IN
the market. The highest authorities-doctors,
chemists and scientists-agree, however, that
Dufy's Pure Malt Whisky is pure and cannot

and WEAKNESS by healthy yigor. BE very care
full however that you secure only the genuine
