attain longevity have, them
selves, succeeded in reaching A
ripe old age. However. Signor
Cornaro, the Italian expert on
longevity, was an exception. He
wrote a book titled Sure Meth

Healthful Life" This ran into
35 editions. Evidently Cornaro
had something as he lived TO
be over 100 years of age. When
he was 100 years old Titan

Titan, a follower of Cornaro'

lived to be SO years old.

nNE Of the most painful dis
~ orders that affect mankind
is renal collie. The condition
starts suddenly and the pain Is
sharp. usually beginning IN the
back and passing downward into
the groin and lower part Of the
abdomen. However, not al
cases are typical In some in
stances the pain may be IN the
back or IN the lower part OF
The abdomen alone.
The most common cause OF
renal collie is the formation OF
a stone in the kidney. The pain
occurs when the stone passes
from the kidney down the
tHeter. which IS the tube that
leads from the kidney TO the
bladder. However. there are
other causes and IL should not
be assumed that when renal
collie occurs a stone must be
present.
IN EACH instance of renal

you're shooting for placement

And you hit the ball, with the

at least you went very little roll.

II Slips Out

Johnston shook his head sadly
and said they found out about
that one month later when vii
lard and the Boer met again, thll
time in New Haven. Conn.
1--WE are doing all right" said
Johnston, "until Owney Moran
gets an idea. Moran, you re-
member, was the good old light
weight. He is working with
me in the corner.
'Rodel,' he says in the ninth
round. you are doing swell.
Now don't YOU quit"
Before he has the last word
out OF his mouth my BOer is In
. the water. The idea of quitting
never entered his head until
Moran mentioned IL. Yes, a
fellow must be careful when he
Is handling heavyweights."
For no particular reason what
ever, Johnston also recalled
Michael Francis MeFigue, the
Irishman. who took the world Is
light heavyweight title from the
Senegalese, Battling Sikh, in Dub
lin on St. Patricks Day in 1923.
