May 23. -Scientists to , day are deeply interested In the claim . of Dr. David Allyn Gorton, the Brook lyn physician, that he has discovered the secret es sex control. Just about a year ago Dr. Gorton, who is in his eightieth year, married Bertha Rehbein. his stenographer and literary secretary. A romance. his friends called the marriage, but today it appears to have been a romance of a more philosophical order than they suspected. By DR. D. A. GORTON. I am overjoyed at the gracious grant to me and mine of twins—a son and a daughter, both the most beautiful chil dren that I over have seen. I did not bespeak for but one—a son—but the gift of a daughter twin was not less welcome, be assured. I It was a grave responsibility at my age- nyar 80—to become the father of a child. It was no hasty or ill-con- I sidored resolution, but a deliberate one. full of purpose and meaning; and I would have it understood that F was actuated by tlm highest and most ex alted motives, in which my wife fully ' shared. An ambition to rear a son who ' would be able to take up my task when I must lay It down has possessed me for mote than a quarter of a century. I am criticised in certain quarters, and not ‘without excellent reasons, for : assuming so great a task at this time of my life. Time alone can decide as to the wisdom, or otherwise, of my course. It required no small degree of courage to carry my purpose; but to achieve it I would sacrifice ease and comfort and run the risk of short al lowance and penury the rest of my days. Outlines His Theories. I believe that my theories of per petual youth have worked out. Here are the essentials: first. work in fundamental. I have been a hard working fellow all my life, and work is what has kept me young. It's trite hut true; it never kjlled any man. Work hard for work's sake, for there is no branch of industry in which you can use your hands without exer- I cising your brains. 1 went to work on I a farm in northern New York when 1 was eight, and 1 have been working . over since. 1 abominate the factory | laws which prevent children being ern- | ployed. It is fir better that they should work, if the employment can be under sanitary and healthful con- I ditions, than ilia 1 they be turned loose to pernicious idleness. It would be far better if the children of the poor were placed at healthful employment young er. I would repuiri it also of the rich; ' perhaps they need it more. Second, education; and that should be on much tiiff rent lines There never ■' u. • i: • a pc , ept than "Know i ; tow-* If."
