DR.. Mari translated for me . lette,
written by q man Of seventy-one a

that the treatment had been given
while the man was under anus
thesia for another operation. and
without his knowledge. to eliminate
psychic influence" He added that

PATIENT 10 GRATEFUL.
There was another letter from q

mature old age. He was , stone

had forsaken. He wrote that he now

SAYS, throws up it's Transforming

'Rejuyenation' at best sets time
back a few years. The treatment may
be given twice. Afterward the man

years to the grave.
