SANDEN. AUTHOR
In reference to manly strength | believe II Is
now more generally acknowledged than ever before
that the manly man stands back Of all that makes
for progress, development and achievement In the
world, truth which any Of us can easily verify If
we but look about us with impartial eyes.
As matter Of fact. the man who is deblli-
tated unstrung and eneryated cannot. for per-
feety obvious reasons. expect to approach those
real and masterful attanments which seem but a
natural and accomplishment for him whose
nerve force, brain power and manly strength are
perfectly normal. Hence. while we acknowledge
the debilitated. weakened man TO be handicapped
in every walk Of life where real manhood count.
yet it would indeed be cruel Of me to here so state
the fact In public print were l not of the honest
opinion that there is every hope for the mmanly
man to restore himself to state Of health and
ygor. If he but clear his mind of abnormal fear
and then make fair square effort to redeem him
self.
There are two specimens Of humanity for which
| have no earthly One Is the man who, though
now strong and vital, yet plunges into dissipation
and excess withNthe certain knowledge Of his I'M
manly fate The other Is the man who. though 4
knowingly debilitated and eneryated. makes no ef-
