could successfully combat old age, but
only for certain time; and II not
longer, in spite Of our careful by
giene, it would not be our fault, but
that of our ancestors of many gener.
ations ago, who did not observe the
rules of hygiene even as well as we
do, and lett us ductless glands of in
ferior quality.
A person inhales air that contains
virulent bacilli and contracts tuber-
culosis. Another drinks a glass Of
water or milk contaminated by water
or kept in vessels that have been
washed with water containing the
baccilli of Eberth, and contracts ty-
phoid fever. Conversely, others who
have inhaled the same air and drunk
much more of the same water, have
remained free from any infection.
"The cause of this is that the first
mentioned have inherited defective
ductless glands from their ancestors,
and probably afterward have ill-treat-
ed these glands by an immoderate use
Of those agencies that are detriment-
al to them, such as alcohol, sexual
excuses, much meat, tobacco, tea and
coffee in large quantities, &C, and
thus could not produce anti bodies to
counterfeit the infection"
Some of the points which DR.. Lor-
and suggests for the prevention of
old age are:
Great moderation in the diet
should be observed, as large quantities
of food may, in the long run, impair
the powers of the digestive organs,
and also of several of the ductless
glands, which are concerned in the
operations of digestion and assimila-
tion-the pancreas and liver.
Meat should not be consumed in
large quantities, as it is injurious 10
various glands with internal secre-
tons, especially the thyroid and liv-
err, and after having been taken for
long time in large quantities can
produce arteriosclerosis.
"The best nourishment for increas.
ing the chances of a long life and to
defer the effects of old age is diet
consisting of little meat, much milk.
and vegetables
"a strictly vegetarian diet, without
milk and eggs, is distinctly unwise
and dangerous to health, if followed
for a long time.
Far more injurious than red wine
used in moderation are tea and coffee
used in large quantities. Unfortun-
ately, many of those who fanaticallv
fight against alcohol indulge in many
cups of black coffee or tea daily, and
thus poison their nervous system. Be-
sides containing them and caffein,
they also aid the formation of uric
acid, as they contain bodies from
which the uric substances are pro-
duced.
Cocoa and chocolate may be talk
en- in larger quantities than coffee or
tea, Cocoa with milk is very nutri-
tious as it contains fatty substances.
Spices should be avoided as much
as possible, especially sharp, irritat-

OLD ACE A PREVENTABLE
DISEASE, SAYS DR. LORAND

That old age is a disease, and, like
other diseases, preventable, is the
doctrine set forth by DR.. Arnold Lor-
and, Of Carlsbad, Austria. His book
entitled "Old Age Deferred" has just
been translated from its second Ger
man edition and published in this
country by the F. A. Davis Company
of this city. Its subtitle is THE
Causes of Old Age and It's Postpone.
ment by Hygienic and Therapeutic
Measures"
whoever takes up this book" says
DR.. Lorand, with the idea that the
aged can be transformed into spright-
ly adolescents VIII be disappointed
But while it is still impossl-
BILE for us to create a young man out
of an old one, it is quite Within the
bounds Of possibility, as we shall en-
deavor to demonstrate herein. to pro-
long our term of youthfulness by ten
or twenty years. In other words, we
need no longer grow old at 40 or so;
we may live to the age of 80 or 100
years, instead of dying at 60 or 20.
All this can be brought about by the
observance of certain hygienic meas
ures, and by improving the functions
Of certain few of the glandular
structures in our body, provided in
durable organic disorders have not
already too gravely compromised one
or more of our main organs"
"Old age, he says, lis a chronic dis
ease due to degeneration of the
glands with internal secretions (here-
matter frequently referred to as the
ductless glands)-of the thyroid, the
sexual glands, and the adrenals in
particular. In this work we will show
that this degeneration is amenable
to treatment just as are chronic dis
eases in general"
In keeping with the majority of
diseases" says DR.. Lorand, old age
is progressive, and, in fact, is so to d
far higher degree than other diseases.
1t is seldom stationary; it goes on all
the time. This we shall easily be
brought to understand from the fact
that the more time progresses the
more food is taken to sustain the pro-
cesses of life. BY the deficient action
of the glands, whose role is the prop
er assimilation of the food and the
destruction and elimination of poison
Gus products Of the body, these toxic
substances will accumulate day by
day, especially if meat be taken, and
thus the continual poisoning will be
augmented as time goes on,
The preventive treatment of old
age is in no less degree possible than
that OF any other disease. To pre-
vent old age nationally We must avoid
all those harmful agencies which may
be deleterious to the glands with in
ternal secretions, as it is the degen-
Grafton of these glands that brings il
about
by avoiding these we believe we
