BRITISH SCIENTIST'S AMAZING HEALTH ANNOUNCEMENT Of Vital Concern to the Invalid and the Athlete—the Old and the Young! Astounding Triumph over infirmities Remarkable Method of Drugless Healing Promises Better Health for all and Longer Life! IF ever a man was entitled to speak with authority on the subject of health restoration, that man is Mr. O. Overbeck, the well-known scientist. For to-day, at 74 years of age, Mr. Overbeck has the bloom of health, the muscular strength, the buoyant vitality, the contagious optimism of a young man, and he owes his present condition entirely to a health process which he discovered and began to put into practice at a time when he was such a complete physical wreck that his doctor told him to make his will, as he had not long to live. A Romance of Health Recovery Mr. Overbeck's recovery of health and vigour is indeed an astonishing romance. A year or two before the discovery that made such an amazing change in his life he used to spend most of his days stretched out on a sofa. It was painful to see him climbing the staircase to his bedroom on the first floor—a step and a rest, a step and a rest, lest this slight exertion should bring on a heart attack. His piano, upon which he had so often improvised with masterly execution, for the entertainment of his friends, wns all but silent now, for the effort of playing even the briefest and least exacting of pieces was too much for him. As for any really active pleasures, they had to be entirely abandoned. A devoted horticulturist, he no longer dared to stoop over his beloved plants, and the glasshouses, where he had raised some of the rarest plants to be found in Great Britain, knew his care no longer. On the rare occasions when he went for a walk in his home town of Grimsby his halting gait and haggard looks were marked by all his friends, who fully shared his doctor's opinion of the outcome of his illness. Mr. Overbeck was, in fact, a prematurely aged man, with an old man's sallow skin and faded eyes, an old man's infirmities and maladies, the victim of chronic kidney trouble and rheumatism, his hair scanty, his sight blurred, his pulse feeble and erratic. But physically broken down as he was, he still retained the mental outlook, at least, of the trained man of science, and a brain that for years had spent its energies in tackling all kinds of difficult and exacting problems, now turned to the most vital problem of all: how the fires of life, which so obviously were dying down, could be stoked up again and stirred into a cheerful blaze. The Secret of Youth He began experimenting, and before long ho was convinced that he had discovered the real secret of youth, in a new process of cell rejuvenation. In the true spirit of the scientist, he tried his process on himself. Some mistakes had to be corrected. Then one day he was faced with the startling realisation that his pulse was definitely stronger and more regular, his step firmer, his sight clearer. Gradually his hair began to grow thicker, too; the twinges of rheumatic pain subsided more and more, the kidney trouble vanished, and his whole outlook on life changed. In short, he was a new man, and friends who met him in the street were flabbergasted by the change which had taken place in his appearance, for, instead of the stooping, woebegone figure they had glanced at furtively with a shako of the head, they saw before them a man with a firm, elastic stride and that fiery glint in the eye which proclaims an eager, active brain. A New Method of Rejuvenation Inevitably inquiries were on every lip, and it soon became an open secvet in Grimsby that Mr. Overbeck had discovered a new method of rejuvenation. The news soon spread farther afield, and before long letters were reaching Mr. Overbeck almost every day from such far-asunder places as Canada and South Africa, Spain and Siam, New Zealand and Japan, begging Mr. Overbeck to disclose the secret of his marvellous recovery of health and vigour. Presently Mr. Overbeck was to be seen upon the public platform, and at the Savoy Hotel, London, before an enthusiastic audience, which included several medical men, he announced his discovery. A well-known journalist who was present at the meeting afterwards declared that he had experimented with Mr. Overbeck's method, and his sight, which before had been greatly troubling him, showed unmistakable sign* of improvement. From Decrepitude to Vigour In the chair on this momentous occasion was Mr. W. J. Womcrsley, M.P. for Grimsby, who vouched for the accuracy of photographs of Mr Overbeck taken before he began his new rejuvenating treatment. These showed Mr. Overbeck as a decrepit old man, whereas the Mr. Overbeck who stood upon the platform was seen to be a well-set-up and vigorous specimen of humanity, to all appearances many years younger. WHAT THE OVERBECK HAS DONE FOR ITS INVENTOR Mr. Overbeck as he was in 1921, when his heart was so weak that his doctor told him to make his will. The photo- H graphs repro- 11m duced on this |H page show the 88l remarkable re- H§ suits which have followed the use of the Overbeck by its inventor, who is himself a living example of the truth of the conclusions to which years of scientific work have led,, and their practical application in this astounding health and youth - building invention. After this public announcement of! his discovery, it was no longer pos- j sible for Mr. Overbeck to ignore the demands of the numerous sufferers who urged him to make available for others the health process which had so unexpectedly and so completely re-established his own health and renewed his youth. Mr. Overbeck accordingly made arrangements so that this growing demand might be met. and his "Rejuvenator," a# he aptly termed the means whereby he had recovered youth and health, is now doing for others what it has done for Mr. Overbeck himself. It is banishing the infirmities of age. It is renewing waning vital energy and restoring youthful enthusiasm in the middle-aged and elderly. It is making old arteries young again. It is toning up vital organs that have become "tired' and sluggish. It is winning back for thousands who have lost it the will to win the battle of life, the zest for action, the desire to lead instead of to follow. The Boon of Robust Health Upon men and women of naturally weak constitution at any age, it is conferring the priceless boon of robust health and vigour, while athletes, actors, singers, organisers, and others who are obliged to work at fever pitch all the time, find in it the most certain means of banishing fatigue and keeping always at the top of their form. These are sensational claims, but they are borne out in the fullest detail by the deeply grateful reports which Mr. Overbeck receives by every post from those who have followed his • example. A few such reports are printed on this page for the benefit of readers of this paper. Numerous others, all bearing the full names and addresses of the writers, are reproduced in the valuable Free Book which is offered to-day to all who apply for it on the special form provided. An Enthralling Volume All Should Read. Mr. Overbeck's new health process, by means of which all the cells in the body are recharged with energy, the muscles strengthened, the circulation improved, the vital organs toned up, and the whole system rejuvenated, is fully explained in this enthralling book, the reading of which has for many proved an event to remember as a decisive landmark in their lives.
