Show BLAINE IS A WELL MANV His Trip to Philadelphia TVa to Consult His Medical Adviser. Philadelphia,. Xov. 30. The Pv,s this morning publishes the following: To consult con-sult a medical adviser was the prime reason for Blaine's trip to Philedelphia. Blaine learned that he was in better health and strength now than four years ago, and a year hence he will be stronger than now. He learned that he is as good a man physically at 61 years (Mr. Blaine's age) as anybody else of like age. The physician said: "Mr. Blaine is a well man. For his years he is sturdy. AVhen I began to attend him last spring he was suffering from acute illness, and was in a very bad condition, completely broken down by overwork. I did not know w hat the outcome would be. Xow there is no doubt in mv mind, for his health is ex-ccllent. ex-ccllent. lie is back to his normal weight, has a good appetite and sleeps well. He has become well by the exercise of common sense, not medicines. At Bar Harbor he went out riding so far .per day, walked a certain distance and played handball a fixed length of time. Before his illness he was not a man who w ould take much exercise. Xow he has grown to like it. If Blaine continues con-tinues to take care of himself I see no reason rea-son why he should not live many years longer. He has entered upon a ripe old age, being 01 years old, and takes pleasure in his present strength." . |
