This Discovery Brings Comfort
To Sore, Stiff, Swollen Joints

It's here, right in town, and
every druggist has it.
It's a low priced remedy, to be
sure, but that doesn't stop it
from helping to take the kinks,
lameneSS or torture out of your
troubled joints.
Joint Ease is the name, so
called because it is compounded
for the purpose of relieving
joint pain and misery.
It abSorbs swiftly, and is so
clean and penetrating that you
can rub it on often and thereby
get results more quickly when
the joint is inhamed and the
agony is intense.

GRADUATE OF NATIONAL REVIEWS
HIS STUDIES AT THE ACE OF 80
Jacob Frech's Diplomas Bear
Signatures of Garfield
and Arthur.
BoWIed % Games of Duck
pins Last May for Aver
age of So.

1t takes opportunity good while
sometimes to reach man, but then
it takes a good man to grasp it when
it comes along.
There's Jacob Frech for instance, SO
years old, and answering he wouldn't
trade his age for youth for anything
in the world. He's had laundering for
logic ever since he reached manhood
and now that he's retired at last-they
kept him in active service at the adju-
tant generals Office until just month
ago-he is regularly enrolled student
in the evening classes at National Uni
versity.
Mr.. Frech is no stranger to academic
halls. In choosing National University
for the formal pursuit of studies he has
carried on individually for many years.
Mr.. Frech merely returned to his alma
mater The Oldest living graduate of
that school, this man, who says you
don't begin to live until you reach 80,
holds the degrees of bachelor of laws
and master of laws from National. He
took the first in June, 1881, and his
diploma bears the signature of Presi-
dent Garfield who then was chancellor
of the university. The second was re-
ceived the following year and that
diploma is signed by President arthur.
successor to the assaSsinated Chief EX-
ecutive as chancellor of National as
well as to the presidency.
His Course of Studies.
It's no mean study program which
Mr. Frech has mapped out for himself
at National. On Tuesday evenings he
takes logic. On Wednesday he has two
classes, one in psychology and the other
in the history of sociology, and on Fri
day he takes the history of science and
on Saturday more psychology.
When you see Mr.. Frech you're apt
to marvel at his robust movements, un-
less you have no idea of his real age.
Mr.. Frech himself believes a balance
of recreation and work is responsible
for that. He bowls well. Listen to this
performance. He says:
Nov on my eighty-first birthday I
bowled 81 games of duckpinS and my
average was 90. On my eighty-second
birthday 1 bowled % games and my
average was 95, and-now listen-on
my eighty-third birthday, that was last
May, I bowled % games of duckpins
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1930-10-18

and got an average of &c. That last
game, the twenty-third I rolled, my
score was 1851"
For intellectual relaxation Mr.. Frech
resorts to chess. He has played the
game since the days of international
meets when moves were made by mailed
post cards.
Coming to the United States from
Germany when he was 6, young Jacob
left school at the age of IL to go to
work as messenger in the Williams
burg, N. Y. Office of Phillip Hamilton,
youngest son of Alexander Hamilton,
first Secretary of Treasury
Called Into Federal Service.
Mr.. Hamilton retired in few years,
but with the outbreak of the Civil War
he was called into Federal service by
President Lincoln, who made him Judge
advocate of the Navy Retiring Board.
Mr.. Hamilton then called for Jacob
Frech again, and on october Z, 1861,
young Frech was sworn in as a mes
senger. Actually, however, he was
recorder for the board and its records
are preserved today in Frech's hand
writing. The retiring board SUISSE
quently was moved to Washington and
on New Year day, 1863, Frech came
to Washington
Mr.. Frech later served under Hiram
L. Sleaper, who succeeded Mr. Hanlil-
ton, and after travelling with Mr..
Sleaper, who had been made Judge
advocate of the Navy Court Martial,
he returned to Washington to stay in
1866. He subsequently entered the

he retired last August 81, as division
