Reluctance to invoke the en-

being due to desire to avoid serl-

LIVING 100 YEAR.

Medical authorities claim that we
should live to be a hundred years
old and can do so when we know
how to live. They say there is no
doubt about it. Further, they add
that we shall be so radiant with
health and energy that to fall sick
will be to fall from grace.
In other words, the secret rests
in our ability to learn the fine art
of living properly. Bathing is an
important step in this direction and
it has time and again been proven
that persons who battle properly
and frequently have been greatly
benefited in health and energy.
The subject of bathing has been
given much thought and in the last
few years medical and health au-
thorities have found much fault
with the old-time tub bath and
advocated the use Of the showei
bath instead. In using the shower
the body is cleaned in refreshing
stream Of clean water at just the
right temperature. No dirty water
touches the body or accumulates IN
the tub.
The Fuller Friction Shower is
used in thousands Of homes. It is
