Apply for terms to RICHARD K. , fatigue lasts a score of years HOW TO LIVE LONG. . ‘Why Peebieness Is not in Every Oace the Necessity of Old Age. The desire for a long life seems to be @ part of the instinct of hun.anity. Sometimes it does not seem to be at all modified by the prospect of continuous | and severe suff-ring. But in the de- sire of a long life we surely should in- elude the desire for a healthy life. The question of how to live in a physica) sense, therefore, becomes a subject for carefal study. Jt is all the more im- portant because the conditions change with the change of age. It will not do | to apply the methods of infancy or of | early life to middle life and old age. The great inclination of youth is to exercise. The free use of the body up to the extent of its powers is not only the means of acquiring more power, but of retaining what we have. So we are to insist upon it that all through the growing p:riod of life the lnw of activity. prevais. There is ne substitute for it. This tends to pro- loug the period of growth. Some have contended that the longer this period can be made the more likely is long life to be secured. Animals that live long are generally slowest in reaching their fullest perfection. Food at the early perieds needs to have sp: cial reference to construction. Hence it it that milk and eggs and all the variout foods are relished in quantities. In childhood, cepts all of the various forms of food. ‘There is growth, energy and much constructive foree, and so all of the food elements are needed. Laver on, the person, if wise, comes te study food and exercise with reference to the kind of exertion that is to be put forth. The in-door life, even if it be one of toil, must not be dealt with as is the out-door lif. Sedentary callings must have some relief by -x reise in the op-n air if the same food supply is used Now is the time to study the tendency of the system. If it is to leanness on the one hand, or plethora on the other, the fact should govern the diet. There are some senses in which the adage ie true that a man is either a fool or his own doctor at forty. By this time he has come to appreciate some laws of his own constitution, and to have some experience as to his tendences Ii under good self-control, he will heed these lessons. Not unlikely he will need to consult, now and then, the stu- dent of disease, but he does it to ob- tain his opinion on the basis of his own experience. He takes him into consultation over his life, in orler that he may be helped in deductions there- from. The law of pliability or adjust- ment must be studied and practiced by himself. Most of those who die between twenty-five and sixty, aless they die by accident, die by some indiscretion. It is the over-indulgence of appetite, or the neglect of food when needed, or the overstrain of business, or ex; osure to changes of temperature without corresponding changes of clothing. Most people of these ages are con- scious of the error after it has been made, or others are co scious of it for them. Without undue captiousness we can note changed conditions and adapt ourselves thereto. Multitudes die prematurely by reason of an indis- cretion which might have been easily avoided. It is intelligent caution that saves sickness, and this caution ought to le in possession and exercise before middle life. It is so much easier to prevent serious sickness than it is to secure recovery from it. Hence it is that so many that are deficient in vigor in early life outlive the vigorous and the careless. Necessity compels them to study their changing condi- tions of health, and so teaches them the benefits of adaptiveness to condi- tions and circumstances. After middie life it is always to be recognized that a process of degenera- tion has begun, The tissues are less fl-xible ad less easily nourished. Organs have not the activity of youth. Some of then have become more or less impaired. The safe:y is in recog. nizing the facts and treating them ac- cordingly. It is wonderful how the system often bears up under the partial disability of an organ or a part if there is adaptation to its weak- | ness, and some compensation therefor. In a state of inability each organ tends to give to some other a helping hand. They will b- work rs foreach other if only we areco-workers.

Two Women’s Expertences. “Sam Small, Evangelist!” | The proverbial philosophy of “Old | Si,” the venerable plantation darkey, | , who gave to the world through the | medium of Small’s pen maxims of worldly wisdom, clothed in a verbiage | of irresistible humor, has found a permanent place in humorous litera- ture. Great surprise was shown when it was announced that he, having been converted under the ministrations of the healthy appetite ac ! “Sam Jones,” would become evangelist. At first thought, a humorist in the pulpit seems incongruous. Is it really so? No doubt the mere buffoon at- tempting to turn men’s hearts to solemn truths would meet with only contempt. But truth is not hidden in gloom. Genuine humor frequent ly illustrates and fastens in the mind bits of wisdom that would otherwise pass uuheeded. In his eulogy of Henry Ward Beecher, Rev. Dr. Parker says: “Whenever he came among men, he brought June sunshine and music, and made even desponding and surly men feel that a fuller and warmer summer, ‘the Kingdom of Heaven,’ itself was ‘at hand.’ ” christianity. Mr. Small belongs to a w-tty fami- ly. He has a brother connected with Armoy Knox’s and “Fat Con- tributor’s” Texas Siftings, a paper which has had phenomenal success in the field of humorous literature. Mr. Frank A. Small is the present representative of that popular paper in England, and, like his distinguish- ed brother, he takes a deep interest in the welfare of other people. Under date of 48 Porten Road, Kensington W. London, Eng., Sept. 27th, 1887, he writes: “While at Yalding in Kent yesterday, I met Prof. S. Williams, Head Master of the Cleaves Endowed school. In the course of conversation about Ameri- ca, Professor Williams remarked that Warner’s safe cure had been of great benefit to his wife, who had been much troubled with a disordered liver. Warner’s safe cure (an Ameri- can preparation) was all she had taken, and she had experienced none of her old trouble for some months past.” Mrs. Annie Jenness-Miller, editor of New York Dress, and a very pop- ular woman in the fashionable world, says in her own magazine for October: “Warner’s safe cure is the only medicine I ever take or recommend. In every instance it gives new energy and vitality to all my powers.” This distinguished woman also says that for ladies this great remedy is ‘“pe- culiarly effective.” Sam Small is likely to succeed asa moral teacher. When we remember how near together in human nature lie the fountains of laughter and of tears, the deep effect his discourses must have on the masses can easily be imagined. “Why did God make so much out- doors?” exclaimed a little girl. We know not. He has made it and we should grow in it, broad, charitable and genial, judging everything by merit, not by prejudice. an That is genial Cattle stealing has become s0 an- noying in Lyons and Chase counties, Kansas, that the stock raisers have organized an association for. pro- tection against the thieves.

The governor of Arkansaw had just turned from a petition bearing 684 | names, when a tall, angular woman, | carrying a gingham sun bonnet by the strings, entered the room and, | | dropping on a settee, said:— “I want to see the guv'ner.” “I am the governor, madame.” “Shore?” “Yes, I am quite sure.” “Wall, I come to ask you why you didn’t answer my letter. I live out in the hills. Moved there lately from Indyany. Sent you a letter by a feller named Steve Spencer. Why didn’t you answer it?” “Your name, please?” “Jane Bromfield. From as good a family as ever lived in the state. Father was a McIntosh and mother was a Harkrider.” “I did not receive your letter, Mrs. Bromfield.” “Look here, do you reckon that feller got drunk an’ lost that docky- ment?” “I don’t know anything about his habits.” “But don’t it stand to reason that he got drunk?” “Well, it’s far from impossible.” “Til tell you what the letter was Shortly after I got here, Tobe, my husband, was sent to the penitentiary. He wasn't a citizen of the state at the time, and didn’t think his sen- tence would hold him.” “His not being a citizen makes no difference.” “And he could be sent to the pen- itentiary before he had a right to vote?” “Yes.” “And stay there just the same as any citizen?” “Certainly.” “Shore?” “Of course, madam, I know what I am talking about. I would like to tell you, before you put yourself to the trouble of pleading his case, that it is quite useless. He is doubtless guilty, and I therefore cannot grant him a pardon.” “My sakes alive, man, don’t skeer yourself, for I’m not going to ask fora pardon. The letter I writ you at a time when I thought youcouldn’t hold him unless he was a voter stated the fact that he voted at the last election wlicther or no.” “Then you don’t waut him par- doned?” “Not much. I've done so much better since he’s been in there that I never do want to set eyes on him again. It maysound alittle strange, but it is a fact that as soon as they took him away the hens that had been mopin’ ‘round on a sort of strike all spring put to layin’, and I wish I may die if I didn’t think they would lay themselves to death.

She'd walk around the yard and sing awhile, an’ then she'd go in and lay. Tobe was sent up for a year. Couldn’t you, to oblige a poor woman, make it two, governor?” “Qh, no;I have no authority to extend the time.” “I didn’t know but to oblige a po’ woman you mout.” “No, I cannot.” “Well, don’t you think you could slip six months on him, anyhow?” “No, can’t extend his time a min- ute.” “But are you sure that you won't let him out under a year?” “We'll keep him in that long.” “Well, I'm much obliged to you for doin’ what you can,” she said, arising, “and I believe that if you had the power you would do more for me.

Ottawa, Ont., Nov. 2—While a Victoria schooner was lying at tho wharf at Barclay Sound, on the weat coast of Vancouver Island, recently, the captain and crew were surprised to see two white girls ranning to- wards the vessel, closely pursued by three or four Indians. Reaching the side of the vessel the girls sprang on board almost exhausted, and beg- ged the captain to protect them from their pursuers. The Indians were close upon them, and, jumping on the deck of theschooner, demand- ed the girls as their property, but the captain refused to give the girls up. After parleying with the captain for a short time they took their de- parture, only to return largely re- enforced. The captain then surren- dered the girls for fear of his life. It has since been learned by tho Government of British Columbia, which is to demand the release of the girls, that they are daughters of William Thompson, formerly of Victoria, who with his wife and four daughters moved to San Juan, on the west coast, three years ago, and took up his home near an Indian camp. Sivee that time until now nothing had been heard of them- After moving to San Juan the father became dissipated and all he earned went for the purchase of liquor When he could no longer obtain money or liquor he sold his eldest daughter to a wealthy Chinaman, to who, it is said, she was married at the point of a revolver. His wife died of a broken heart, and in one of his revelries at the Indian camp it is alleged he agreed to barter. two of his daughters for a few blankets, clothing and whisky. The bargain was made, and for the purpose of carrying it out, Thompson's hut was visited the following night by a few of the tribe, who easily carried away their helpless victims. Since their captivity the girls have been subject- ed to the most brutal treatment. A younger sister, only eight years old, was sold to another tribe of Indians- The light-house keeper at.
