BATIIS AND MASSAGE

‘‘Baths and niassage. I may add, play important parts in an alhlete's program, and I cannot speak too ltighly of the former. They draw the stiffness front the muscles, and the massage brings al! the littlc rccognized thews and sinews into use and subjection."

My Measurements and Record Lifts

THE measurements given helów will no doubt be interesting on account of (1) the fact that I ant recognized as the strongest man on earth, and (2) the fact that they are accuratc measurements, whereas in most cases it is usual to add a few inchcs to eaeh nteasurement, which is not only unscrupulous, but has a bad effect in discouraging physical culturists who give up their attempts to bring their pliysiąue up to a high standard, on account of the apparent impossibility of reaching the enormous measurements I refer to. My idea is to be absolutely truthful in all details, and avoid exaggeration in every way, as thus, and thus only, may our athletic young men and the public generally gain a sound idea as to what has beeti and may be accomplished.

The above measurements provc one need not be a per fect colossus to be able to per form startling feats, and further that the biggest man is not necessarily the strongest.
