If you kick hard enough against old age you can keep young. ‘That's what Senator Bon Tillman sald by implication to his colleagues Four years ago Senator Tillman had the iMuminating experience of readi but be in still alive and kick! Most of us direct vigorous metaphorical kicks against the sere and yellow leaf, whenever «+ think of {t, but the Senator attributes the prolongation of his life to actual physical kicking. “Before rising from under the head and Ile fiat on the back. Draw deep breaths and begin by raising the |: out one foot fifteen times, “ operation with the other foot, followed by a perform- ance with doth feet, inhaling to the limit after each movement, heels in the air twenty times, lifting the feet alte: nately, Senator Ben Tillman's Rules All Right, Says Dr. Samuel G.

Then kick out, as though you were kicking at vielous dog.” DRINKS THREE QUARTS OF HOT WATER A DAY. In addition, the Senator drinks very hot water directly after eating, tak- ing at least three quarts a day. He also observes a careful diet. But it seems obvious that he considers kick- ing the most valuable feature of his self-treatment. When I submitted the Senatorial method of prolonging life to Dr. Samuel Gateley Tracy of No. 240 West One Hundred and second street, he was much interested. Dr. Tracy THE DIET TO KEEP YOUNG ON fe the founder of the Health and Longevity Club of New York, and a frequent contributor to medical pub- cations of standing. ‘Senator Tillman mentions a num- ber of factors which must be of vice to health and longevity,” the doctor. “But I should feel doubt- ful about recommending that pro- gramme of kicking to everybody. “Exercise is a valuable aid to keeping young, but too strenuous exercise is likely to defeat ite A person troubled of breath would increase that trouble by suddenly bringing the knees toward the abdomen, as in the action of kleking. Violent kicking would probably be bad for a person euf- fering from hardening of the a tories, one of the commonest signs of old ag the heart would be compelled to work too hard. “In hardening of the arteries, or urterto-sclerosis, the walls of the ar- teries lose elasticity, the calibre of the blood vessels becomes narrower, and an extra strain ts put on the heart in ita efforts to keep the blood circulating. Violent exercise ts likely to do damage to the heart or blood easels. Tho professional athlete is not commonly long-lived. DEEP BREATHING I8 A WI THING TO DO. “When Senator Tiliman emphasizes the necessity of deep breathing he} speaks wisely. Ten or twenty deep breaths give admirable exercise to; the lower part of the diaphragm. ‘Also when all the lung capacity 1 used for breathing the lungs are stronger and better able to resist pneumonia or tuberculosis germs. “Persons who breathe deep natu- rally should not neglect the upper part of the lungs. One way to force the air into them in to tle a towet around the jower part of the dla- phragm, keeping the ends of the towel in the hands so that it can be tightened or loosened at pleasure. By careful mahipulating the upper lung cells may be made to expand, ut in the beginning this should be done with great caution. “Drinking hot water is an admir- d| ble practice for those who are get- ting on in years. The membranes ef the stomach and of the digestive tract are flushed and cleansed of waste matter. Also the blood Is thinned; it has a tendency to thicken a8 ono grows older.” Senator Tillman spoke of a ful diet” without going into details. I asked Dr Tracy for particulars as to the food of the person who wants to keep going. “The man whom the calendar warns of approaching old age should eat less, Four-fifths of his customary diet will probably be sufficient. He should cut down cially on his quantity of meat, and avoid the excessive use of alcohol, tobacce, tea or coffee. He should eat more fresh fruit and drink lemonade. “eaves | | | meat,” continued Dr. Tracy. “Most Persons don't realize how much they actually consume. 1 keep myself down to two ounces @ day, which is what I call a moderate amount. There are many who eat meat every time they eat anything. KEEP OUT IN THE AIR ALL YOU POSSIBLY CAN. “One of the best ways of retaining health and youth ts to keep outdoors as much as possible. It's a splendid thing that the business man, the city man, of to-day stays outdoors so much more than his predecessor of the last generation, The growth in Popularity of golf and of the country club" Is subject for congratulation. The man who has a sedentary occu- pation ought to walk in the open air every day.” “Do you agree with some of the champions of the new dancing, who declare that it rivals the fabled foun- tain of Ponce de Leon?” 1 inquired of Dr, Tracy. “I do not!" he exclaimed with em- | Phasis. “The middle-aged =m and women who seek rejuvenation in the new dances are making a mistake, and quite possibly dangerous one, They win o ly @ passing mental illusion, and if there is anything the matter with Pres- Sure their tango craze may have fatal results. “Unless accustomed to violent ex- ercise, no one should take it up after the age of fifty, There are simple, siow movements of the arms and trunk which I frequently prescribe, but moderation should always be ob- served, When the arteries have b come hardened any excessive p sur in the blood veasels is likely to re one of them, ‘0 one should permit himself to be old before he is eighty. The beat general plan for warding off disease -~and old age is a disease or a com- bination of several diseares—in to keep the body in a healthy, well-bal- anced condition, freg from waste matter, such as fat, and able to make ite own repairs, This is frequently a difficult task, under the atnormat conditions of our intense modern lite, but it is a task which no one can afford to neglect.” ——-—_—.@ A SPLENDID SONG FREE, The words and inusic of “Dark es," by Manuel Klein, will be given in next Sunday's World Magazine.

The shooting occurred as the all- night patrons of the bath were drese- ing to leave the place. When the shots came the men ran helter akel- ter down the stairs and out on Third street, with no thought of what they lacked fn the way of clothing. At the door they ran into Detective Lauterbaum of the Union Market tation, who had just come down, thinking the row upstairs was over when Swimmer rafused to make a charge against the two men. He hustled the half clad men back into the building and went upstairs. There he found Swimmer with the revolver still in his hand and Baum- garten and Connors unconscious on the floor, Baumgarten waa naked. Swimmer made no defense of his action, saying merely, “I had to do it.” But later when he ina cell he almost collapsed. “Why did 1 do it?” he cried. “Why was I not killed while I was serving in the Philippines?
