Louis Worthriaan of near Magl,ey and Henry A. Breiner of Peterson, were native of the county. Thfey lived their lives in this neighborhood, were active in farming and other pursuits during a span of years which saw the development of the county from mud roads to its present high state of improvement.

Many Men Os Middle Age Are Affected By This Condition

By HERMAN N. BUHDESEH, M.D. AS we all know, women go through a change of life around middle age. This is known as the menopause, or climacteric. At this time, most women experience more or less discomfort from hot flushes, nervousness, and anxiety. Men may also go through a period with symptoms somewhat similar to these, though it is not so frequently recognized. It is due to a falling off in the production of testosterone, the male sex hormone. Some specialists believe that a great many men experience such a climacteric. May Be Tragic Change of life in men is at times very upsetting and even tragic, because it usually occurs just as they have reached the height of success which hhs come - from years of vigorous physical and mental effort. They And they are losing the aggressiveness and mental sharpness that have brought success after much hard work and application. Then, too, this is just the time when their business and family depend on them most ffor this reason, treatment is not just a matter of relieving a few distuning symptoms, but is a method of renewing the strength and vigor so important in a man’s life. 7 J Some Symptoms tt Symptoms of the male change of life usually appear around middle age, and usually cannot be traced to other causes. As a rule, these men are nervous, cross, Irritable and at times even emotionally unstable. They complain of hot feelings or flushes, may have a rjervous urge to urinate frequently, and sometimes show signs of skip ra&gs

farmers in the area in which they labored and set excellent examples as citizens and Christianminded men. J . o o r- - State road No. 1 running south through Bluffton and then north to the intersection of U.S. highway 224 will be resurfaced this spring, the state highway commission has announced. Proposals from will be received April 18 covering a seven mile stretch of this highly used highway. The concrete pavement has worn out and the repair is needed. Our road committees should contact the state commission relative to the repair of 1 U.S. highway 27 north of Decatur, which is worn out, to say the least. • . . W hy Limit Terms:— The book “Mr. President,” made up of some of the private papers of Presidept Truman, is not likely to be confused with Dale Carnegie’s best-seller “How To Win Friends and Influence People.” Many of the statements attributed to Mr. Truman in the book are calculated to arouse the ire of people in high places. His remark that the longest any Congressman should remain in office should be twelve years has already drawn the fire of legislators of both parties who have held office almost that long or longer. .. ! i » ’ There is a measure of truth to the president’s staltemeift. : Some men grow old in office and their ability ‘to adjust; themseHes to changing situations grows less with each new term serve. Yet there are many senators and representatives whose judgment, ■ ■ ■ ■ I ■0!• ’ 3 fT experience and wisdom have increased with the years and who are a definite asset to the country. It would be unwise to prohibit men from serving if some of those ' affected would reach the deadline at the peak of their legislative abilities. Rep. Robert. L.- DoughtQp, 88-year-old North Carolina Democrat, summed up the question with the \ comment: “If a Congressman is any good twelve years? isn’t enough. If he is a poor congressman, one term is too milch.”

due to nervousness. They are often deeply disturbed by a marked decline in the sexual function. ; I The shortage of testosterone, besides causing these sexual and other symptoms, usually weakens the body muscles, as well as the bones, skin, and blood vessels. Test for Hormone Content A test of the amount of hormone in the urine is a positive method of finding out if such a shortage is the real cause of the complaints. If a shortage Is found, testosterone may be supplied by injections into a muscle. An examination of the prostate gland by the physician is usually carried out before the testosterone is employed to make sure this gland is normal. If the gland is abnormal it may be well to avoid the use of the testosterone. ‘J | After three weeks of such treatment, the symptoms generally disappear completely. Over 85 per cent of cases are helped. If the patient improves after three weeks of injections, the hormone may then be taken by mouth under the direction of the physician, and after examination of prostate. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS S. P.

CHAPTER FORTY-TWO OUTSIDE Kaimingra office, the sledge hammers were smashing the thick door from its hinges. Liddell had his hands full with the squirming, scratching fury he was trying to tame. Suddenly, he brought his fist up, felt it connect with her jaw with paralyzing force. Fah Soo’s body went limp. Liddell got up, brushed himself off, looked down at the unconscious form. “I apologise, baby. I’m no gentleman.” He felt for the slight wound in his shoulder. “No gentleman would think of hitting a lady" without first taking off his hat.” There was a gasping for breath behind him. Kaiming sat in the chair, ri film forming over his eyes, a glass in his band. A slight dribble of saliva showed at the corners of his mouth, ran down his chin. The glass slipped through his fingers, smashed on the floor. “Your drink, Liddell,” he gasped. “I hope you don’t mind—nay drinking your drink.” His jaw sagged, his arm fell to his side. His eyes were etill open, but the film over them had become opaque. The glass of the door finally gave way and a wave; of plain * clothes men poured in. Byers, the Treasury department man, walked over to LiddelL “You okay, Johnny?” ' y .-‘v?-’’ Liddell nodded, indicated the scratch on his shoulder. “She was right. They do have to hire white gunmen who can shoot straight.” Byers took a look at the wound, seemed satisfied. "You v&re right, too.

She was the one that added the espionage to the agenda.” Byers nodded. “You know this all the time?” “Heck no,” Liddell groaned. “It added up when I sat down and checked back. Where I made my mistake was adding apples and oranges. AU you get that way is fruit salad. When I got around to adding just apples, everything cleared up. Everything that 1 had that pointed to Goldy pointed to Kaiming as well. So, if It wasn’t Goldy it had to be Kaiming.” He shrugged. “Just like that.” “You did a nice job, Liddell,” Byers told him. “We can clean up around here. No need of you hanging around if you’ve got anything else to do.” "Meaning?” Byers grinned. “I tipped dff that blonde newshawk gal of yours that you might be having a story for her. 1 think she’s probably waiting for you at her place.* Jim Kiely was sitting on the terrace with Muggsy wh«n Johnny Liddell walked in. He grinned at Liddell.

"What’s this X bear about you almoat snafuing their smashing of the spy ring?" Liddell groaned. “Muggs been talking? Why don’t you nm that story in that rag of yours so I can sue you for libel?” "And lose me my job?” Muggsy pouted. "Why not?” Liddell nodded. “No wife of mine is going to work.” Muggsy shook her head positively. “And no husband of riiihe is going to be a second string shooting gallery.
