BRITISH SCIENTISTS AMAZING HEALTH TREATMENT Striking Benefit to all who are Not Enjoying Perfect Health!

IF ever a man was entitled to * speak with authority on the subject of health restoration, that man is Mr. 0. Overbeck, the well-known scientist. For to-day, at 75 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 m 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. ir ... . ' MB. 0. OVEKBECK. F.K.S.A., F.P.C. (I.01K1.), Ilie well-known scientist, whose amazing discovery has aroused world-whin Interest, and brought relief to sulferers in every civilised Innd. His piano, upon which he had so often improvised with masterly execution for the entertainment of hi.s friends', was all but silent now. for the effort of playing oven the briefest and least exacting of pieces was too much for him. As for any really active pleasures, they had io 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 (treat Britain, knew his care 119 longer. On the rare occasions when he went for a walk in ids home town of Grimsby his hailing gait and haggard looks were marked by all his friends, who fully shared his doctor's opinion of the outcome of his illness. Mr. Overbeek was, in fact, a prematurely aged man, with an old man's sallow skin and faded eyes, ah 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 diflieult and exacting problems now turned to the most vital problem of all: how the tires of life, which so obviously were dying down, could bo stoked up again and stirred into a cheerful blaze. The Secret of Youth He. began experimenting. and before long lie was convinced that lie 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 lie was faced witli the startling realisation that iiis 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, woe-begone figure they had glanced at furtively with a shake 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 secret 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. Overbeek almost every day from such far-asunder places as Canada and South Africa, Spain and Siam, New Zealand and Japan, begging Mr. Overbeek to disclose the secret of his marvellous recovery of health and vigour. Presently Mr Overbeek was to bo seen upon the public platform, and at. the Savoy Hotel. London, before an enthusiastic audience, which in-
