When is a Man in His Prime?
TtrOUTH and age are relative JL terms. It is not so long ago that a man or a woman of thirty was reckoned middle-aged; and at forty-five, on the borders of old age. We have changed all that. And,although some few are past their prime by the time they are forty, there are, plenty of people well on in the sixties almost as young and full of life and energy as theirgrandfathers were at half their years. Most of the responsible posts in business and in the world of politics are filled by alert, enthusiastic men and women who know how to keep their minds clear and theirbodies fit. "lattribute what you call my health and vigour", said one,of these real leaders, "in no small measure to my realisation of the fact that no engine can run properly if it is all choked up. Cleanliness inside is far more important than cleanliness outside; and if I had only time to attend to one of them, I know which one it would be. Some years ago, a friend of mine put me on to Nujol—about the best tip I've ever had from anyone. I'm 65 next week, and I can honestly say that I've never felt better or younger in my life. People talk
about the prime of life. I'm in my prime now, and hope to stop there for many a year to come." Nujol is riot a "medicine", and contains no drugs. It is a natural substance which, even in unnatural conditions, keeps the body working smoothly and effidently.lt removes the poisonous waste that is always accumulatingand tending toclogour internal machine.lt cleanses and lubricates and helps the body to function as Nature meant k to—regularly, smoothly, painlessly. Nujol is pure, colourless, odourless and tasteless Accept no substitute.
