WILL MAKE YOU YOUNG
Radlum Administered Internally VIII
Make Old Age u Real
Delight

How radium administered Internal
ly could prolong human life and
make old age almost a delight was
described today by DIR. E. Stillman
Bailey Of Chicago to tho therapeutics
In convention there.
DIR. Bailey, who is one of Americas
foremost authorities on this myster-
ious element, told OF the renewed
youth OF the men working In the
radium mines of Colorado.
During the flu epidemic. he said.
those workers were immune. All
ments such as rheumatism, gout and
neuritis were unknown. He attrlbut-
ed the excellent state of health of
these men to their drinking water
charged with r1dium.
THE rays caught in sugar OF milk
and made up into tablets. taken In
ternally," he said, seem to work
miracles. I have dispensed thousands
Of radium tablets in Chicago and
their results, especially among old
people. are nothing short of marve-
lous. A veritable fairyland Of science
stands revealed.
"One Of the principal causes of old
age is the hardening of the arteries,
due to increased blood pressure. This
the radium tablets prevent. Their
effect on the human system is start
ling. Acute pains disappear as If by
magic. The invalldism characteristic
Of old age vanishes.
"Jaded appetites become keen
again. red blood corpuscles have in
creased by 25O,OOO within forty-eight
hours. Radlum is a wonderful tonic
and blood remedy. Its possibilities
are still undreamed Of"
DIR. Bailey exhibited photographs
of plants whose growth had been
stimulated by radlum. One tomato
vine had grown to the height of ten
feet four inches.

1T STOPPED HER
The Ample ProportOned Woman
Changed the Subject In
Hurry.

A woman OF ample proportions was
giving a lecture on the human form
divine. Her manner was OF the type
familiarly known as "highbrow;" 1t
was, in fact. irritatingly supercilious
and lofty.
For example" said she, twice
round my thumb"-she held 1t up
"once round my wrist; twice round
my wrist. once round my neck; twice
round my neck. once round my waist"
Here she paused. and shrill voice
from the audience exclaimed;
Twice round your waist. once
round Hyde Parkl"
The lecturer hastily passed on to
another branch Of the subject.

CAUSE FOR PRIDE
The Doughboy Had to Have the Con-
stitution Changed to Reform
Him.

Besides being a rather wild youth.
Sam Smithers was exceedingly ego
tistical. A couple of days after he
returned from overseas he strolled
into a grocery store where the pro-
hib!tion amendment was under dis
cusslon.
How about It, Sam?" asked a
friend. Are you peeved because
they made the country dry while you
were gomez"
Sam drew himself up proudly and
.gazed at the group Of loafers.
"Poeved, nothingl" he calculated.
I'm proud of IT. Why, they had to
amend the Constitution Of the United
States of America to reform me. and
they knew 1t had to be done when
wasn't here to prevent it."

ARE SHARP PICKPOCKETS
Women Are Far ShrcHdcr In the
NcfaIious Art Than Are
the Men.

There is pickrockets of the fair sex,
sometimes known as ''lady dips"
sometimes as "frisking James" The
fine flower Of their activity begins TO
bud in October and burst into luxur-
liant blossom In the feverish weeks
that culminate Christmas Eve. If you
watch for the lady dip" at the bar
gain sales you may have an oppor-
tunity to study her extremely efficient
methods.
The lady dip almost always works
alone, differing in this respect from
the man pickpocket. who generally
works soclably in a gang consisting OF
wire" and two or three stalls"
Likely the solitary and Independent
ways of the "frisking Jane" are the
natural consequences OF the fact that
little ceremony is needed to rob a
shopper with her husbands salary in
flimsy bag dangling from her arm
and with calculs ting eyes fastened on
ruffle marked down to SO cents.
when the woman pickpocket is
caught with the goods" a detective Of
long experience said, "she has great
advantage over the male dip because
she knows how to throw a fit of hys-
terlcs. or 'highstrikes.' as they're
commonly called Just suppose that
you've been following an old hand at
the game through the Christmas
crowds, and thot you've grabbed her
at bustling bargain counter just as
she has lifted a roll out of a woman's
handbag. You may feel inclined TO
say:
AHA, Highstrike Hannah, I've got
the goods on you at last'
But you don't get a chance to say
much. for Higstrike Hannah throws q
TT. She screams that her father is a
clergyman and her mother was a lady
her husband Is dying Of consumption
her uncle Is senator and various
near relatives will die Of shame IL she
is disgraced. She foams at the mouth
on the subject OF her innocent little
children crying for their mamma anS
growing up under a horrible cloud
She swears she IL innocent-or, II th'
case is too clear for that. she attrib
utes this one Flip 20 the anguish o
her children crying for food.
Its all pumped out at high pres
sure in a torrent of words and sobs
and by that time Highstrike Hannal
Is rolling on the floor. You've caugh
