✦ Synopsis

A REAL science fiction story should be written about realities of life, concerning which all the readers are familiar. The most commonplace things of life can become the most wonderful, if handled in the proper manner. So, in writing of sickness, crime, poverty, starved and twisted bodies, life everlasting, radiant happiness, riches, leisure, marriage, divorce, and babies, the author feels that he is dealing with material with which the everyday man and woman is well acquainted. Given the supposed discovery of a wonder-working serum, the rest of the happenings seem to be most natural. Though the following tale will be considered a fairy story by some and a sermon by others, it is in reality a science fiction tale of the most classical type. And if, in addition to furnishing pastime amusement to thousands, it makes a few readers think and live and love better in an effort to make this a more beautiful world for our babies to grow up in, the efforts of the author will be well rewarded.
David H. Keller, M.D.
