MEN OF SIXTY YEARS
SHOULD Be YOUNG.
UNITED DOCTORS SAY THAT
MOST MEN GROW OLD EN-
TIRElY TOO SOON.
DIE BEFORE THEIR TIME.
Under Proper Treatment and Care,
Faculties and vlaor Can be Re-
stored Many Years

The physician In charge OF the ia
nous United Doctors Richmond Insti-
tue gives out a very interesting theory
in regard to the cause of the physical
decline of old age. The doctor Is OF
the opinion that most men lose their
faculties and vigor much sooner than
necessary. He predicts that future
generations viii be much longer lived
on account of a more general knowli
edge of medicine among physicians OF
the future.
The United Doctors system of
treatment is based upon the PROPOSE
| ton that there are three causes fer the
decline Of the faculties and shrinking
and shriyeling OF the various organs
in old age.
First: The stomach, liver and bow
| els become clogged by over eating or
eating improper foods. The result OF
the ciogging is an improper elimina-
ton of waste products.
Second: The kidneys become weak
ened from overindulgence and excess.
causing poor elimination of urates.
phosphates. ETC., and the formation of
poisonous acids. The results of poor
elimination by the bowels and kidneys
is the storing up of a host of vast
products in the system. The blood In
clogged with waste, which settles in
| the tissues, muscles and bones. The
bones become hard, brittle and weak.
| The vast settles I'm the muscles. weak
ening and shriveling them and caus-
ing a multitude of aches and pains.
and a general clogging and stiffening
of the whole body.
The third cause OF premature old
age is the weakening of the nerves
due to excess in living and worry and
excitement of our life.
The usual treatment for the various
aches and weakness of old age is
physics and tonics. The physics weak
en- the bowels and kidneys still more.
and the tonics give a false strength
which is simply a borrowing from the
future, which must be paid back with
interest.
The rational and scientific treatment
is a general cleansing and purifying
of the whole system. including the
blood, bowels, liver and kidneys. This
| cleansing lie not done with physics. or
so-called blood purifiers, but must be
done with special medicines suitable
to the particular case at hand Then
after the system has been thoroughly
cleansed, the various eliminating or
gans must be built up by suitable med
icines so that they will properly elm
mate all the vast in the future The
nerves must be fed-not with nerve
tonics or stimulants. but with nerve
builders. nerve foods. The nerves
control every organ in the body, and
III the nerves are weak the whole sys-
tenn is weak
Thus the secret of good health in
old age is to cleanse the system and
keep il clean To build up the nerves
and thereby keep up the nerve ten
sion and vitality.
Give us an old man of sixty or sew
enty. who has no organic lesion, but
who is simply broken down from ex-
cesses and wrong living. and by our
modern system of treating the cause
of the ailment We will clean him up
and build him up so that he will have
the elastic strength and manly vigor
of an ordinary man of forty Building
up the nerves puts energy in the mus
cIes, vim in the vitality. makes the
memory return and thoughts flow
through the brain as of old"
One man of seventy-fve, whom we
treated but three months. said: Il
4 wouldn't take $1,000 for what you have
done TOR me"
Another man of sixty-four said:
"T0ctor5 you have turned back the
hands Of time for me. ! feel as wen
as I did twenty-five years ago. en-.
joy lif. / enjoy work / enjoy my
home Kahn"
