New Ponce de Leon
Claims He's Found
Secret of Youth

BALTIMORE, Md.-~A new method
of rejuvenating mankind, discovered
by DR.. Steinach, an Austrian scien-
fist, has aroused the interest of Eu-
Mari, of this city, who has just
made it known that the experiment
has been tried on human beings. A
man of seventy years, DR.. Mari said,
has regained the Vigor and powers
which he possessed at the age of
forty.
The new method does not involve
the introduction of any external or
gan into the human body, but is bas-
ed simply on the injection of sporif-
erous germs and the removal of in
active and producing corpuscles.

monkey gland" theory in that or
gan from other animals are not
grated.
The theory has been put to the
test and found practical in most of
the leading German hospitals. Most
Of the experiments have been con-
Quoted with rats, and every case, ac-
cording to the reports brought by
Dr.. MARI, has been successful.
In the case of rats. the Stomach
discovery has not only prolonged the
IIle VI iOueII from twenty III
months to thirty-six months, but
also has caused a new growth of
nair and a marked return of the rats
bodily vigor. The process, first tried
on rats, has been perfected on hui
mans. The operation is simple
Performs Operations
While in Berlin DR.. Mari was Of
fered the opportunity to study the
Stomach theory and personally per-
formed the operation several times
with success. He will deliver Il Sc
ries of lectures on the subject to
members of the American medical
profession shortly. He brought to
America with him one of DR.. Stein
ach's books. in which the results of
years of research work are outlined.
From a scientific standpoint, the
discovery is said to be of inestima-
BILE value, not only in the matter of
prolonged life, but also in the mat
ter of reproduction. Owing to the
present depleted population of Eu-
rope, the discovery has become a
matter of national interest in Ger
many, Austria and other countries
which suffered considerable loss of
man-power through the war.

Bathers in Dead Sea
Say Water Resembles
Salt, Kerosene andLve

The Jericho region is supplied with
three kinds of water, and this prodi-
gality, coupled with the historic fame
of the Jordan Valley, has furnished
a regular formula of bathing for pill
grims to this hot depression, nearly
quarter of mile below the level
Of the sea.
or course, every tourist has to
battle in the Dead sea; it is the thing
to do. Lucky is the man whose skin
does not crack in the heat of the val
ley, for the film of the eye reminds
one of boiling oil and the Spanish
inquisition.
Having performed the necessary
rite. and dutifully completed an ex-
perience which can be recorded in
the diary Of the trip, the poor pill
grim, laved with a tenacious fluid
that seems to be composed Of salt,
kerosene and I've. drives off to the
Jordan and seeks relief in the muddy
waters of that river.
Then, as night rapidly settles in
the deepest wrinkle on the face OF
Mother Earth, the tired traveller
rides between the miserable novels
which constitute modern Jericho and
dismounts at the Sultan IS spring,
once sweetened by Elisha.
Here the water is collected in a
large pool, both cold and clear, and
few, indeed. resist the temptation to
plunge into it and remove forever
any lingering signs of the holy but
muddy waters of the Jordan.--Na-

two women were too strong for her.
Some of the children, excited by the

Another Obstacle RemoUed
 From Path Of Commercial
 AUiotion By Unique DeUice
Startling Strides Made in Development of Plane and En- zine During War-Designers Felt Responsibility and Worked for Ample Strength for Safety-Inven-
 ton Prevents Failure of Motor

In a recent interview, Col J. c. Vim cent, vice president of engineering, Pack ard Motor Car Company, and co-designer of the Liberty motor, briefly reviews the status of aviation engineering progress at the present time and announces the perfection of an engine device which is calculated to remove one more obst2Sle in the path of commercial aviation.
 Aviation today is undoubtedly several decades ahead" says Colonel Vincent, "as a result of the war. Speed with safety and dependability is the keynote of avi- ation whether for war or peace. Under war pressure startling strides were made in thet development of plane and en- zine. The ace at the front required a plane to endure exceptional stresses while maneuvering in aerial combat. and his life was too precious to forfeit as a result of a collapse of a faulty plane in the air. Designers felt the responsi- bility and every part of the plane was then designed of ample strength for the maximum load which could be determined by calculation to a nicety. Then a prac- tical sand load test would be made on a sample plane which would represent conditions several times more secere than could ever be encountered in the air. Instead of the wings being subjected to to the pressure, say of a 200-mile n-hour wind, an even load of sand bf a seimilar weight would be laid on the wings. Sand load testing, as this procedure is cal.ad, became an exact science and as a re- suit, the collapse of a plane in the air due to structural defects was unheard of towards the end of the war
 ACCOMPLISHED DURING WAR
 'sThe combination of a staunch plane and a reliable engine was an accomplisheo fact at the close of the war. An ex- perienced pilot, assisted by instruments
