In ‘his colony of rats Dr. McCay has some already twice normal rat ages, and still going, with the old- est equal to 110 years of human life. The lives of these animals were doubled by just one thing—feeding them' less than enough to let them grow as fast as nature would per- mit. latest, Ten Years Longer The other survey shows diet ap-| pliad in a manner more nearly| fitting human desires. This was' made by Dr. Henry C. Sherman, of Columbia university, whose experi- ments led him to predict that the| average life span can be prolonged | 10 years in tHe near future by 2 choice of diet. No nafion yet has ventured to apply the known laws of heredity that result in longer life. But the Japanese study suggests this type‘ of heredity is somehow mingled with moderation; that those who inherit their longevity come trom‘ families neither very small norl extra large.

"YAMES BUTLER The two became close friends and when his landlord expressed a de- sire to go into the grocery busi- ness for himself, Mr. Butler agreed to furnish the necessary capital of $2,000. A store was opened in 1882, Mr. Butler further aiding the busi- ness by purchasing stock for the store while acting in a similar ca- pacity for his hotel.
