improvement over night and many
users testify to full restoration Of
vigor within week. The quick eff
feet is due to what scientists call
"chemokinssis." or increased activity
of the organisms on which vital force
depends.

With both men dead or dying, it

II Ia known that the authorities

advancing the theory also declared
that they have hit upon a possible
