His method may apply to all kinds of tissue. Possibly diabetics and other glandular sufferers can get similar relief...
...ridiculous criticism is really only a "publicity stunt" on their part, and in the future all readers will regard such articles just as we would a communistic periodical. . . .And, too, we must excuse the act, since it is just a time in these young men's lives when their glandular secretions in their brains are slightly abnormal, and they are not fully responsible for their actions. . . .
