HIGH BLOOD
PRESSURE

A we advance in age and
IA our arteries harden, the
~ - blood pressure rises. There
mas long been belief that this
rise in pressure was in itself a
Sinister thing, just as fever was
long regarded as something to be
feared. Just as we know that
fever is an index of the body's
fighting power in the presence Of
an infection, so we now know
that the increased pressure of
advancing age is a corrective eff
fort on the part Of Nature.
High blood pressure of this type
simply means that Nature is com.
pensating for something - that
conditions exist that can only be
met by a higher pressure, if the
circulation and all the cellular
processes dependent upon the cir.
culation are to. go on.
If such a pressure were re-
duced, there would only have
been accomplished a reduction of
the circulation below what would
be normal under the circum.
stances. It might be said that
high blood pressure of the sort
we are writing about is a defen-

advisedly lowered there are pretty
sure to be unpleasant symptoms.
Harm Is likely to BE- done in this
way, shown by shortness Of
breath, interference with kidney
action and an accumulation of
water in the lungs.
One Of the reasons why high
pressure Is necessary in elderly
individuals is because along with
the hardening of the arteries
there is more or less alteration in
the kidneys themselves. This al
teration tends to obstruct the
circulation in these organs and
this obstruction can only be met
by heightened pressure. in order
that the elimination of toxins
may 60 on.
1t ought to be plain that high
pressure in these circumstances
is q safety valve which must not
be tempered with in a foolhardy
manner and that it Is by no
means inconsistent with a very
fair degree of health.

you hear that man laughing?"
We stopped and listened.

laugh. How good 1t sounded to

On we trudged, and all the
while the laughter was becoming
louder and clearer. We knew we
were getting nearer to our jolly
neighbor.
Sure enough, the laughter led
US out of the swamp and up onto
the mainland. We made directly
now for the sound,
"Ha! Ha! Ha! Louder and
louder grew the laughter.
BY this time we expected to
run right into the laughing man,
but where was he? We looked
all around, but there was no man
in sight. Then another loud eta!

We rushed forward through the
brush and what do you think we
saw?
There before us stretched the
very lake by which our tent was
pitched, and, floating around on
the blue surface OF the lake, was

l suppose you think he was a
man. But he wasn't. He was a
beautiful big bird like a duek--a
Ioon-and he was laughing so like
a human being that at a distance
we thought he was a man.
We followed the border OF the
lake to our tent. Weren't we
glad to get home! I tell you we
might have had a pretty hard
night In the swamp if that loon
'handn't laughed us out of it!

no you say you were laughing
- like a loon? Do you know
~ what that meaps?
Lunatic? No, lots Of people
think that. But--suppose I'll
tell you a story that will show
you what you are laughing like.
Bobby, Bunny and I were away
up in Canada in the autumn. I
had taken my camera along and
wanted to get some pictures Of
the big moose which live up
there. / think it's much better
to shoot animals with q camera
than with bullets, don't you, my
dears? And, after all, it's just
as much fun.
We were living in little shack
far up in the North Woods on
the edge of a lake, efTCf'9 tell you
1t was fine. We used to go off
for long, long walks and never
hand any trouble in getting back.
But one day as we were walk
ing along, Bunny shouted:
Here are the tracks of a big
moose"
Bobby and examined the
ground and, sure enough there
were the footprints. said:
Come on, let's follow these
and we'll get fine picture"
SO off we started.
On and on we went following
the trail of the moose which fl
nally led into some very nlarshy
land
There of course, we lost the
trail We floundered around
searching for some trace of the
moose, but the further we went
the worse that swamp became.
With each step we sank deeper
and deeper into the soft. spongy,
muddy swamp. We couldn't get
a foothold. 1t was getting darker
and colder. It wasn't much fun,
can tell you.
1t was all right for Bunny, be.
cause he was in my pocket, but
Bobby's feet and mine were like
ice We were shivering with the
cold. We didn't know what to do.
Suddenly we heard, off in the

Science again has scored q
triumph in the discovery Of .
very remarkable liquid known as
KOIor- Bak. If you are gray, just
apply this liquid to the hair and
scalp and your hair will soon take
on the actual color it had in the
past. Not Q trace Of grayness

Kolor- Bak comes in the form OF
a clean and colorless liquid, con-

restore the lost color to the hair

You will find also that with
Kolor-B ak the hair has the same
shade throughout. 1t does not

Every scientist, every physician,
knows that gray hair is hair that
has ceased to receive its normal
supply Of coloring matter or pig
ment from certain tiny cells
(called follicles or papill@) in the
scalp, because these cells have
become inactive from illness,
shock Of some kind, scalp disease,
dandruff, infection, neglect of the
hair, or lack of circulation, etc.
But no matter what the cause of

to see how it disappears when
Kolor- Bak is used. It is. q real

scarcely two hours before their
tragic deaths. Win his hand tear

sode? Will he tell us the where
abouts of the crown jewels?
Among them is a magnificent
diamond weighing 194% carats,
sometimes called the "Scepter,"
but generally known as the "Or-
loft" The historical gem, linked
by tradition with the Koh-i-Noor
and the Great Mogul, was the
most renowned of the crown
Jewels and the chief ornament of
the imperial scepter, on which it
was placed.
According to tradition. It was
stolen by a French soldier from
the eye of a god i'm a Brahmin
temple and sold to an English sea
captain. After passing through
many hands it found its way to
Amsterdam, the great diamond
mart of the world. 1t was pur-
chased by Khojeh Raphael, a
travelling Arme a n merchant,
who took it to Russia and even
tually sold it to the lover of
Catherine IL, Count Gregor Or

Count Orloff, before his mad
