The Secret Of Eternal Youth.

Has the secret or etertlal youth Dcpn
discovered by Nikola Tesla in the cleo
trical apparatus which ne has discovered?
If it has, woman by its means can really
retain the pure, soft, pink-white skin of
babfhoUd as long as she lives.
Mr.. Tesla experimental with the most
powerful miscroscope ever built. which he
turned upon the human skin. He found
that it is practically never clean-that in
the cities especially it is not only covered
with inorganic organism that drop upon
if from the polluted air and live and null
big globe covered with paint. Through
this he ran powerful electric current:
which caused the paint to scale off, leay-
ing the globe clean and fresh.
That's precisely what the wizard of the
wire proposes to do with fair woman to
make her more fair.
He has devised a reclining chair, upon
which the subject lies, perfectly nude.
Two wet sponges are applied to her feet,
two to her arms. The current is turned
on: it thrills, tingles and weakens the
skin. and then, as the paint fakes fall
from the globe, so fall from her all the
dirt which covers the skin, so fiutter away
also the hideous microbes. The skin be-
comes as the skin of babe. 1t is as the
fresh skin which replaces that which
sloughs off from scar or burn. This

external appearance goes. there will be
no more old men and old women if the
use of this electric chair becomes gem
eral Every one will 20 down to his
grave retaining all the outward appear
ance of blooming youth.
Speaking of his new method, Mr.. Tesla
says:
oughly in soap and water every day have
k1.,% hon, ,,fk r11- frr>,
microbes, and that their SKIN cannot he
made any cleaner. If these people had
only the opportunity to gaze for mo-
ment through very powerful microscope,
such as mine, they would be utterly as
tonished to see the millions of germs
swarming over every inch of their own
bodies. These germs, besides making
such a hideous sight, are eating up the
vitality and freshness and destroying the
rate. | have succeeded in inventing a
means by which the skin can be kept free
from their ravages.
my method is to bathe the body thor
oughly every day with some disinfectant
like alcohol, and as the hair of the body
has particular attraction for the mi
crobes, doubly thorough bath of alco-
hol should be given it every time.
Next, the body is thoroughly rubbed
with the hands to stir up electricity. and
through the feet and hands the whole
body is charged with electricity from II
battery / have myself invented. With
this battery | have charged human bodies
so successfully that the microbes have
been thrown off in Il perfect shower to the
ground This charging of the hands and
feet relieves the skin and hair entirely of
microbes, and the skin can so on living
it's natural life of softness and freshness.
Still other microbes will fall upon il the
next day. but these are always removed
before twentyfour hours.
AFTER the body has been charged it is
given an electric massage by means of the
new current invented by me. The whole
affair is finished off by slight bath of
the same disinfeetant used in the be-
ginning
