at last, the secret Of healthy and
vigorous old age has not been dis
covered.
The reason so many OF US grow
old at forty, and the reason men and
women become anGmic and run
down is because our ductless glands
which supply vital secretion neces-
sary to the proper building OF our
billions Of muscle and nerve cells,
become unable to do their work. so
to build them up, what could be more
natural than to go to life itself and
use extracts from the glands OF
healthy and vigorous young animals
to supply the substance needed Ihis
principle in itself is not new--pepsin,
which also comes from animals, has
been used for years in the treatment
of Indigestion.
Glandex Compound contains ex-
tracts from the glands Of healthy
sheep and cattle, combined with iron
and other health builders, and Is
guaranteed to bring results that are
entirely satisfactory in a very few
days, or the money will be refunded.

about which considerable mystery al

The deer was found about 200 feet
from the shore of an island. No bull

Amazing Results Everywhere

: Judge Benjamin F. Cleaves OF BID
deford, chairman of the Public Utili-
ties Commission, declared Saturday
that probably no matter is of more
vital interest and consequence to the
pcople of Maine than the present
condition and future prospects OF the
transportation agencies, particularly
the steam railroads.
AT the present moment there Is no
steam road in New England but what
is in a very precarious condition"
said Judge Cleaves. ut might be
thought that the very substantial in
crease in freight rates in New Eng
land, beginning with the 10 per cent,
followed by the rs per cent. and still
later by the 40 per cent. increase,
should yield under proper manage
ment q sum sufficient to leave sub

the challenge to any other place to do
better than can be done in the Capt.
