BeY'Oun3 hrYOurr
 Years

You were taught at school that your body undergoes a complete change of structure every seven years.
 This tearing down and build- ing up process of body tissue continues without a moments pause throughout life.
 And when a man gets into . physical condition that the tis- sues keep breaking down and wasting away faster than Ma ture can replace them, right then he begins to grow "old''.
 This doesn't necessarily mean, however, that he has reached an advanced age. Thousands upon thousands of people begin to break down, their vital organs giving evi- dence of fast approaching de- cay, long before they reach middle age simply because they fail to give Nature, at the proper time, the needed help to rebuild.
 Ifyou are beginning to show the slightest sign of a physical 'slet-down"-if you are losing your old time ''pep" vim and vigor-if high tension energy and nervous strain are begin ming to tell on you-it's a sure oign that you are growing "old'' too old foryouryears. You've reached that stage where your vital forces need rebuilding. Don 'trnake the serious mistake
