 Among the greatest of discoveries that have been made in medical science in recent years are those re- lated to the glands of internal secre- tion. Among the most significant of the recent glandular products is tes- tosterone propionate, 8 product which is coming to be called the male sex hermone.
 While this product was prepared in pure form several years ago only recently has it become possible to obtain a preparation from the urine of human beings, and still more re- gently such product has been put together by the chemists in pure form. Whereas the product isolated from human materials was called an- drosterone, the product put together out of the chemical called choles- terol, taken from wool fat, is known as testosterone.
 Since the product was developed 1t has begun to be tested in relation ship to many different physical and even mental conditions affecting the human body. Its use has been studied in enlargements of the prostate gland, in the treatment of over- activity of the thyroid gland, in the Nf xxyt1n fn hoVyo excess activity of certain of the glandular substances developed in their bodies, and in the case of other women who have lost the effects of certain glandular substances from their bodies.
 Men who have suffered changes in the body as result of complete deficiency of sex gland activity have apparently been treated with this substitute and have responded in such 8 manner as to indicate that the substitute takes the place to some extent of the normal tissues.
 More recently some investigators have indicated that these glandular substances definitely stimulate sex ual activity in the normal male and inhibit reproductive processes in the female. Again it has been suggested that these products may actually af- feet the thought processes of men in advanced years, stimulating men, tai activity.
 While perhaps only few, if any, of these claims have as yet been fully verified by enough controlled studies to indicate that they repre-

sweeps the country and gets
world acclaim.
Gypsy music is known the
world over, go from New York
to San Francisco in our own
United States and in all our
big cities in the larger ho-
tells gypsies will be found.
Gypsy music has something
that no other type of music
has.
Music, gypsies and flowers,
what a combination. # a
young man wants to please
his escort for the evening, he
buys her flowers from the
little flower girl or little old
woman that sneaks into the
establishment, and with
flowery words tries to persuade
the gallant gentleman that his
lady fair likes flowers. I was
thrilled doubly the night +
had the pleasure of hearing
gypsy music and carrying
home a bouquet of beautiful
pale pink roses as token of
appreciation for the pleasant
evening from my host. Flowers
seem to be the favorite of
men and women in Hungary.
Can there be wickedness or
meanneSs in one who loves
flowers? I hardly think so. The
flower markets are a sight to
be hold. They are held along
the side of the streets. Peddlers
bring their wares in buckets
and then offer them to the
passer by. The flowers are
much the same as ours, only
they seem to have been more
successful in the growing as
the flowers are much larger
and prettier. The roses are
especially pretty.
Many a housewife sends her
maid to the flower market
early in the morning purposely
to get fresh flowers for the
house. Every house is adorned
with flowers in summer, and
every home grows some, some
where in its little yard.
Girls tell me who couldn't
get romantic with roses, music,
an attractive gentleman, a
July night and the moon, the
above things / guess account
for a scarcity of spinsters in
Hungary. Girls, go to Hungary
if you want a good time.

Youngstown Ohio

you to read free. Everything
is rather quiet and orderly,
now and then a nimble figure
brushes past your table look
ing for her mate, or a dignified
gentleman is hurrying to his
rendezvous. Everyones voice
seems to have a soft sweetness
which prohibits it from float
ing to the listening ears at
the next table, which is an
arm lengths away. Let's sup
pose you have an appointment
with me to meet me at a GER
tain coffee house, you arrive
and I am not there, you get
impatient, SO you summon a
page. This is what happens.
My name is printed on a small
blackboard, this is carried by
the page among the tables and
reminds one of the old fashion
as he walks he rings a bell that
ed bells, teachers used when
they wanted the children to
come in from recess.
Of course the ringing of the
bell draws everyones attention
and if I am anywhere present
in the coffee house, I would be
sure to know you are looking
for me. It is interesting to
watch the page. Some of the
coffee houses have music,
either jazz or cigany. In the
evening there is always mu-
sic, usually the crowd is much
dressier in the evening.
"Cigany, cigany, te ven ci-
gany', yes, you are almost as
old as the Magyars themselves.
Where would you be without
the Magyars, or where would
they be without you, is a riddle
that will probably never be
solved. Today, we know that
you are among the dying
remnants of the glorious past.
You are no longer the
nomadic, free, happy-go-lucky
that you used to be. I talked
to several cigany, and they
told me it was rare to find
one of them that could not
read and talk several Ian
guages. Civilization has caused
them to be assimilated and to
take up occupations which re-
stricts their activity. Let me
tell you something about the
real Magyar cigany, - no, he
isn't like the cigany you and
I know, or have heard play at
our Magyar dances. The
gypsies I saw this summer are
clean polished men, who have
a keen memory. If ever one
plays for you, ten years from
now, if by chance you should
meet again, he will without re-
quest or any hint from you
play the medley that first
brought you to him. He can
tell from your actions your
mood, if you do not suggest, he
will play and nine out of ten
times he will strike your mood
correctly and play for you
something that reaches home
1 Have you ever had the thrill
be you of either sex, of gypsy
playing in your ear, if you
haven't you have something in
store for you, it was a SEN
sation you'll never forget. -
Thrills in the form of shivers
play hide-and-seek up your
spine, your heart just flutters
and you don't know whether
you should laugh, cry, shout
or Jump and run. It just does
something to you.
I shall never forget that
