How To Keep Young
AS You Grow Older

II is possible TO have a hale,
hearty old age. The body in youth
possesses more heat than the body
OF middle age or old age, because
the blood contains more oxygen.
It Is possible for middle aged and
older men and women to increase
the oxygen carrying capacity Of
their biood-not By pumping oxy-
gen into the lungs, but by supplying
the blood with the organic iron
which attracts oxygen Just as the
magnet attracts steel
Two warning forces-the red
blood cells and the white blood
cells are always contending In the
blood. They are the processes OF
building up, and tearing down.
During youth the hot, red blood,
vitaized with oxygen, enables tbs
building up process to overcome
the tearing down process, and the
tendency Of the body Is all toward
growth and development
As middle age approaches, the
two forces tend 20 equalize each
ether, and the body retains It's
vigor and vitality.
But, with the coming Of old age,
the victory OF the tearing down
process is manifested BY the slow,
gradual decay Of the vital energies.
The stress OF modern life makes
