e goat glands in preference to others.

"Unquestionably I have cured sterility in one woman, and I have utmost
faith that it can be cured in any other, so long as all of her organs
are not missing. The operation is a little more difficult than it is in
the case of men, but no more serious. Where a man recovers, and can get
about, in two or three days, a woman recovers in a week.

"All of my patients are much improved in their general health as a
result of the operation. I wouldn't say that this operation holds the
secret of eternal youth. I don't know. All my patients have been between
the ages of 32 and 48, so that I cannot speak from experience.
I believe, however, that the operation will prolong life; I know that it
improves the health in every way. But I cannot say that it will restore
the bloom of youth to an old man's cheek. I am considering, however, an
operation upon a man 80 years old who came to me and asked for the
operation. Whether he would be able to have children as a result of it I
do not know."

None of Dr. Brinkley's patients had been parents until they came to him.
Now the oldest of the babies is 13 months; another is 8 months and a
third is 6. Dr. Brinkley does not claim to be a specialist in gland
implantation; he is merely a practicing surgeon who has made a study of
the subject and is doing what he can to help unfortunate people. The
doctor's modesty until now has hidden his remarkable discovery from the
world, but he is now writing a report on his results.

Scientists who formerly ignored Dr. Brinkley's letters are now writing
to him asking him for exhaustive reports of his work. The sarcastic
attitude came largely heretofore from those who were unwilling to
believe that such operations of the highest scientific importance, were
being performed in an out of the way village that couldn't be found on a
railway map.

Dr. Brinkley, who was graduated from the Medical Department of Loyola
University, and who has traveled over all the world, explained his
residence in Milford. After leaving the army he sought a location in a
small town, selecting Milford as the result of a newspaper
advertisement, and going there, found it to consist of less than 200
inhabitants. But the surrounding territory was rich and the farmers
prosperous, and in the isolated location he saw the chance of continuing
experiments begun at Bellevue Hospital
