Statistics Show Considerable
Increase In Human Existence
and Fifty Years is Now Con
sidered As Middle Age.
From statistics and the result of certain
changes io the rui'thodi of living we can
af.'ly affirm that the span of lile is stead
ily lengthening. Thiee thousand year
before the Chri.itiun era the average du
ration of life was said to be three soore
years aod ten. This would make mid
dle age oouie at thirty five. Dante con
sidered that year the middle of life's arch
and Montaigne, speaking for himself at
the same period of life, considered his
real work practieally ended and proved
that he thought be was growing old by
falling into the reminiscent age.
At the present time fifty years is con
sidered as middle age. In the days of
the Revolutionary War prominent men
at that time were looked upon as old at
fifty years. We are justified in suppos
ing that the span of human life will be
prolonged in the future because the possi
bility of liviug to an older age has been
demonstrated by the great advauces made
iu UKdiciuc aod hygieue duriug the pusi
ten years.
We have attained a vast amount of
knowledge as to the causes of disease,
and uew remedies for their successful
treatiui'iit have beeo discovered. We
have in' ii' w J:. ise, at least, of any
serious uliraen r, aud we are better able
to treat the old oues, Tliieh, like old foes,
appear to us with oew faces.
One of the most interesting and trust
worthy statements in respect to old age
is the report of the habits of centenarians,
made soujc years ho by a commission
appointed by the British Medical Asso
ciation. Without goiug into particular
of the different cases, it is valuable to
note, geuera Jy, the result of this iovesti
gal ion.
It stems that most of these old people
were small ur medium of stature and of
spare habit nl body. The voice was rare

NO SUCH THING AS A TIRED BRAIN.
When a Man Thinks His Brain
Is Tired, It Is Really Hi
Stomach That Is Overfed or
Some Other Vital Point That
Is Weakened.
Kvery man should have impressed
upon him the fact that the human brain
is capable of absolutely unlimited devel
opment. It csn be developed more easi
ly, more permanently than the muscles
Like the muscles, it is developed by exer
cise, but unlike them there is no limit to
its possible development and there is no
sge limit to the growth of meutal facul
ties. If you g i to a certain hotel in Chica
go you will God at the door of the large
dining room a colored gentleman who
takes your hat, uvercoat aod umbrella
He gives you no ticket. When you
walk out again, to your inteuse amaie
tnent he bands you your property, iden
tifying you among hundreds of othet
guests and immediately associatiog you
with the proper hat and coat.
In a big store in Twenty-third street.
Vew York city, a small oegro lad, 1-1 oi
15 years old, works for a living. One
diy at that store this writer asked for 8
buok apparently seldom purchased. Va
rious dignified white men were asked
about the book. They thought that
they did not have it, but to make sure
they asked the cjlored boy. Without ii
moment's hesitation be pointed out s
certain balcony oo the ea-t sido of the
store aud tol l exactly where the small
volume could be found. Every one ol
the thousands of books io tbat store was
located in a definite spot in that young
negro's mind, despite the fact that hi
probably had seen the insi les ol very
lew ol the Volumes.
The two ioslances quoted are not un
usual. They iudicate merely the most
supeificial Bort of development of one
particular mental faculty, that of recollec
tion. A mure remarkable instance ol
such development was showu by lluudir,
the French prestidigitator. Ho Could
pass a shop wiudow coutaioing perhaps
scores ol d lfereul articles, cist a glace
at the window as he weut by and enumer
ate without error cveryihing io it from
th it one glance. 8 uue meu leuro a score
ir more of languages.
Y t the grealo t development of any
h'litian braio has never taxed even to the
slightest degree the aoiu.il capacity of the
mind
No matter to what exteot you may
tram your mental taoultlei, oo matter
how much you may use your brain, you
will still be like the man who has spent
5 or 0 oeuts and has a million dollars in
the bank
We au in-lined in beltevine that we
are destiud to marvelous mental achieve
ments in the future, when we coosid
the instrument of thought that has bees
L'iveo to us aud which is so little used
at present.
A scientist nsmed Meioert calculates
that the urav matter of the brain con
tains 600,(100,000 cells.
This in itself seems quite complicated.
If we only had one thought stored sway
ia esch cell, we would know quite i good
deal.
But you must remeniber that each oell
is divided into several thousand mole-
oules separately divisible.
Every one of these molecules oontains
many millions of atoms. Unquestiona
bly each separate atom plays its psrt in
the working of the brain. Figuring on
a very modi at basis, you find thst your
brain ooolaius 18,000,000,000,000,000,-
000 separate atoms.
The theory tbat the atom is an indi
visible particle of matter, which is iudi
oated by iis came, Meaning uneaiibl-i, is
only a theory not by any meal demon
strated. Tbi re ia no reason to believe
that theie ia any limit to the uuiverse iu
the direction of bigoesa or littleness
What mill ao atom may be in fffeet
an invisible particle of matter or it may
be a small universe in itself. However
this may be, don't you think that with
a braio organised as above you ouht to
be able to develop a good deal of mental
energy and be quite free from any worry
ihnut overworking the machine which
has been given to you to do your think
ing.
When a man thinks his brsin is tired
it is really his stomach that is overled or
some other vital point that is depleted or
overloaded. Keep the rest of your body
in good condition, and your brain
ever feel any amout of work that you
will be able to ive New York Jour
nal.

Brownship," remarked the professor, who

TOO METKOOS SUGGESTED.
One Calls) for Eggs, the Other
l)oen Not Take Your Choice.
Iu iis ' Hints to Housekeepers" de
partment the Philadelphia Heoord gives
the following receipe for making kisses :
''Kisses are made by beating the whites
of three eggs uutil they are stiff sod
flaky; then sift over the eggs three quar
ters of a cup of powdered sugar. Mix
the sugar iu lightly with a knife. Cover
a board with paper, drop the mixture on
it by spoonfuls, and place io a hot closet
oroven,wiib the door open, for half an
hour. Then remove from the oven snd
let dry one hour. To make them suc
cessfully a moderate beat is required."
The individual who eonducts "The
Man on tbe Corner" column of the Qer
mantown Independent-Gazette declares
the above is wrong aod submits tbe fol
lowing: A bachelor friend, after reading the
above, rises to remark that io an expe
rience of some years he has had no occas
ion to use eggs in the business or to mix
io sny sugar. There is, be says, no use
for a knife aud fork, the oven isn't in it,
aod tbe door should be shut rather (ban
open, with the curtains down. In tact,
he doesn't like the recipe, and offers one
of his own, which he thinks is much
more satisfactory. Now, then, listen :
Take one girl. Flump, with a
peachy complexion, tender straight nose,
ps the color of a ripe watermelon's
heart, big brown or delicate blue eyes,
and a finely rounded chin. Entice your
scarf pin to begin to come out of your
neoklie, or ostensibly make a mess of
pinning a buttonhole bouquet on the
apel of vour ooat. When she oners to
help you accept with a look of grateful
urprise. Watch your chanoe, and wh"o
he strikes a snag io replacing the scsrf
piu, or her taper fingers tremble as she
tries to adjust tbe boutooniere, when the
watermelon lips are at a minimum dis
tance, aud the brown eyes are pleadingly
aud peisistently looking below the level
of yours as if tryiog not to be caught by
your gaie "
Well, if you don't know the rest, all
the newspapers that ever were printed
couldn't leach you.
LA ORIPFE QUFKLY CURED.
In the winter of 1893 and 1899 I was
taken down wib a severe attack of what
is called La Grippe, says F L llewett, a
prominent druggist of Winfield, III. The
only medicine I used was two bottles of
Cbambi rlain's Cough Remedy. It broke
up tbe cold and stopped tbe coughing
like maiic, and I have never since been
roub'ed with Grippe Chamberlain's
Cuugh Remedy can always be depended
np n to break up a severe cold snd ward
off any threatened attack of pneumonia.
It is pleasant to take, too, which makes
it the most desirable aod one of the best
preparations in use for these ailments.

JUST STARTING IN LIFE.
The Great Preacher Lays Down
Some Excellent Rules Which
Ought To Be Read and Pre
served by All Our Readers.
Here is a letter which the great preach
er, Henry Ward Beecher, wrote te his
son who bad just gone from home to be
gin business for himself. It ought to be
read, clipped out, and preserved by all
our readers:
My Dear Herbert; You are now for
tbe first time really launched into life for
yourself. You go from your father's
house and from all family connections to
make your own way into the world. It
is a good time to make a new start, to
oast out faults for whose evil you have
had an experience, and to take on babiti,
the wants of which you have found to
be so damaging.
1. You must not go into debt. Make
it a fundamental rule cash or nothing.
2. Make few promises. Religiously
observe even the smallest promise. A
man who means to keep bis promise can
not afford to make many.
3. Be scrupulously careful in all
statements. Accuracy and perfect frank
ness, no guesswork. Either nothing or
accurate truth.
i. When working for others sink
yourself out of sight, seek their interest
Make yourself necessary to those who
employ you by industry, fidelity aod
scrupulous integrity. Selfishness is
fatal.
5. Hold yourself responsible for a
higher standard than anybody else ex
pects of you. Demand more of yourself
than aoybody else expects of you. Keep
your personal standard high. Never ex
cuse yourself to yourself; never pity your
self; be lenient to everybody else.
b. Concentrate your lorce on your
proper business; do not turn off. Be
constant, steadfast and persevering.
7. The art of making one's fortune
is to spend nothing. In this country
any intelligent and industrious young
man may become rich it he stops all leaks
and is not in a hurry. Do not make
haste; be patient.
8. Do not speculate or gamble. You
go to a city where everybody is excited
and strives to make money suddenly,
largely and without working for it. They
blow soap bubbles. Steady, patient in
dustry is both the surest and the safest
way. Greediness and baste are two
devils tbat destroy thousands every year.
9. I beseech you to oorreet one fault
seve re speech of others. Never speak
evil ef any man, do matter what tbe
facts may be. Hasty fault-finding and
severe speech of absent people is not hon
orable, is apt to be unjust and oruel,
makes enemies to yourset and is wicked.
10. If by integrity, industry and
well earned success you deserve well of
your fellow citiions, tbey may io years to
come ask you to accept honors. Do not
seek, do not receive them while yoa are
young wsit; but when you are estab
lished you may make your father s name
known with honor in halls of legislation.
Lastly, do not forget your father'i and
your mother uoa. Dectuse you win
be largely deprived of church privileges
you need all tbe nerve to keep yout
heart before God. But do not despise
small churches and humble preachers,
".Mind not high things, but condescend
to men of low estate." Read often the
Proverbs, the precepts and duties enjoin
ed the New Testament. May your fath
er's God go with you and proteot you."
Mothers.
Mothers are the queerest things!
'Member when John Went away,
All hut mother cried and oried
Wlmo they said good-by that day.
She just talked aod seemed to be
Nut the slightest bit upset
Wu the only oue who smiled!
Others' eyes were streaming wet,
But when John oane back agaii
Ou a furlough safe end sound
With a medal fur bis deeds
And without a single wouod,
While the rest of us hurrahed,
Ltughed snd joked and danced about
Mother kiased him, then she cried
Cried and eiied lika all git out!

ONLY A FEW SAW IT.
And when the Star Stood Over
where the Young Child was
the Wise Men Rejoiced with
Exceeding Great Joy.
"And when tbe wise men bad beard
King Herod tbey departed; and le, the
star which they saw in the east went be
fore them, until it came and stood over
where the youog child was. When tbey
saw tbe star they rejoiced with exceed
ing great joy."
We do not see tbo star.
We are too busy with our business;
we are involved with other affairs; we do
not look out of the window; we do not
look forth unto God. It is not dark
enough yet to turn our attention away
from tbe world lo tbe heavens with their
shining lights. We are so anxious to re.
cover from aome temporary evil, or some
little diffiulty that is of oo special ac
count. How few look up iolo tbe heavens.
Not oue out of a hundred can tell what
now is the evening star or tbe morning
star, feople are just as lodiuerent in
looking up at the religious heavens as
tbey are in looking up to the stars above
us.
We were crossing the desert years ago
from Egypt, and on our way we lost the
compass. I think we found it after
wards. But we went into camp because
we could not tell where we were going, as
tbe sky was cloudy. The guide said :
"The clouds never remain over tbe skies
at night in the desert. Then we will
travel by tbe stars. Wbeu I can lee the
notth stsr it is just as good to me as a
compass." Instead of travelling by day,
we travelled through the night and bad
the north star for our guide.
Did you ever think, io reading tbe
story of Jesus Christ, that it wac only a
few wise men who saw the star. Ooly a
few of us are wise enough now to see that
the love of a child is worth more than a
fortune. To have tbe family gathered
around one's board is a boon more valua
ble than all fame or kingdoms. Only
very few wise men really see this star.
Tho politician is too busy, the merchant
is much engaged, the innkeeper is attend
ing upon his earthly guests. Of the
wise men there were ooly seven. From
a sermon by Russell H. Conwell.

Catarrh has become such a common
disease that a person entirely free from
this disgusting complaint is seldom met
with. It is customary to speak of Catarrh
as nothing mure serious than a bad cold,
a simple inflammation of the nose and
throat. It is, in fact, a complicated and
very dangeroua disease ; if not at first, it
Very soon becomes so.
The blood is quickly contaminated by
the foul secretions, and the poison through
