DRIVES HIMSELF TO WORK AT 82
And Still Plays à Little Golf
How many of us, when we are 82, will be the equal in honith and activity of this vigorous old Scottish engineer? In a letter he says:-
"I arrived here from Scotland on the 7th April, 1870. I am over 82 years old. I drive my Ford car 40 miles over hills and dales to a factory. and can still play a little goif. I have taken the little dose of Kruschen Salts In my cup of coffee every morning for some years, and I believe it in keeping me in good health and en- abling me to keep on working at the factories as engineer."-L. A."
Whether you are still in your "teans" or past your prime. It is neither too early nor too late to start on the "little daily dose." Just 籍
