OLDEST MAN IN WORLD is SICK

Constantinople.- the first time
in his life of 146 years, Fora Mehmed
who is said to be the oldest man in
the world, is sick.
He is suffering from indigestion,
for which he blames a set of false
teeth.
All his working life Fora has been
carrier of heavy weights, ranging
from 200 to 1000 pounds.
During the Napoleonic wars he had
bet that he could life 500 pounds
with his teeth, and he ruined them in
making the attempt. He got along
for some time without any teeth,
and then he obtained a set which
wore out.
About twnty years ago he got an
other set, which, he says, have al
ways given him Indigestion and have
finally made him go to the hospital.
Fora was born in Turkish-Armenia
as the birth record in the mosque
there shows, in 1774.
He has son aged ninety and a
young daughter Of fifty. In appear
ance he is only about seventy.
