THOUSANDS OF TESTIMONIALS
The Lengthening Years of Man.

In an interesting paper by DR.. Edw.
jarvis, III the fifth annual report of the
Massachusetts, board of health, the fol-
lowing vital statistics, past and pres
ent, OF various countries, strikingly
show how the advance of civilization
has prolonged life: In ancient Rome.
in the period 200 to 500 years after the
Christian era, the averag duration of
life IN the most favored class was 80
years. In the present century the
average longevity of persons of the
same class is so years. In the sixteenth
century the average longevity in &C.
neya was Il. 81 years between 1914 and
1888 it was 4O.6S, and as large portion
now live to 70 as lived to 1890 years
ago. In 1893 the British government
borrowed money by selling annuities
on lives from infancy upward, on the
basis Of the average longevity. The
treasury received the price and paid
the annuities regularly as long as the
annuitants lived. The contract was
mutually satisfactory and profitable.
Ninety-seven years later, Mr.. Pitt is
sued another tontine, or scale of annui-
ties, on the basis of the same expecta-
ton OF Life as IN the previous century.
These later annuitants, however, lived
so much longer than their predecessors,
that it proved to be costly loan for
the government. 1t was found that
while 10000 of each sex in the first
tontine died under the age of %, only
9,772 males and 6,416 females in the
second tontine died at the same age
100 years later. The average life of
the annuitants of 1893 was 56.5 years,
while those of 1870 lived 33 years and
9 months after they were 80 years old.
From these facts, says Dr. Jarvis, it is
plain that life, in many forms and
manifestations, and probably in all,
can be expanded vigor, intensity, and
duration, under favorable influences.
For this purpose it is only necessary
that the circumstances amid which, and
the conditions in which, any form of
life is placed, should be brought into
harmony with the law appointed for it's
being.

A Blind Actor.

From Berlin Correspondence New York Herald.
A most remarkable fact connected
with the Meiningen court company is
that one Of the principal players, Herr
Wellenbeck, who took the part of Pope
o1xtus, has been perfectly blind for
the last three years. Few people who
attended the performances ever mag
med for moment, however that the
actor who moved with such ease. and
precision on the stage before them did
not see the scenes around him. Forum
ately for him, affection did not come
upon him until he had been for some
years a member of the NIeiningen
troupe, SO that he knew the boards by
heart when blindness came upon him
HIS colleagues are very devoted to him.
Whenever a new. piece is to be given
they undertake many rehearsalsin order
TO make the blind actor feel at homo
IL his new role The drama of 'sPope
Slxtus' was quite new to him, and a
critic who knew of his affection wrote
how he trembled for fear of the actor
making a false step. But he moved
about and assembled the throne with
safety and dignity. 'sSince my eyes

see everything clearer with the nerves
OF the brain. Life concentrates itself
II nay head undisturbed by the ex-
ternal world, which for me no longer
exists. Wellenbeck is man of In
t6lect, having scholarly education
III his youth. He is the son of an
Austrian councillor, now deceased, and
has always moved in the highest
society. His father died only few
years ago without knowing of the sad
affection that had overtaken his son,
who, by means of a mechanical ar
rangement and the assistance of a
servant, wrote letters to him up to his
death. The Duke of Meiningen settled
a pension on this remarkable actor some
years ago, SO that his future is provided
for.

THROUGH all the ages of study and
Investigation which have marked the
path of scientific discovery, one espec-
tally alluring object has tempted the
inquiries and speculations of philoso-
piers. It is what the wizards and
witches of olden time, the jugglers Of
India, soothsayers of Arabia, Magi of
Egypt, necromancers of Turkey and
the Orient, and alchemists of civilized
Europe have sought but sought in
vain-a vegetable aon-poasonots El5uaa.,
which, by cleansing the blood, renov-
ing from the system all impurities,
strengtheningsthe nerves, the muscles,
and the brain, and vitalizing every fibre
Of the system, should bid defiance to
the corroding hand of disease.

CHILDREN OFTEN LOOK PALE AND


The Ladies' SOrOsis Club, of New York, re-
Gently changed their discussions from Womans
suffrage to Hair preparations and Pimple Danish
ers. They declared that where nature had not
endowed them with beauty, it their right
yea, their duty-to seek it where they could. So
they all voted that Magnolia Balm overcame Sal
lowness, Rough Skin and Ringmarks, and gave to
the complexion most distingue (sorosian) and
marble-like appearance dangerous to men, no
doubt; and that Lyons Kathairon made the hair
grow thick, soft and awful pretty, and moreover
prevented it from turning gray. If the propri-
etors of these articles did send the sisters an
invoice, they not smart.

One More Unfortunate.

A writer describes recent painting
Of Gustave Dore's, as follows: cit
represents woman sleeping on what
appears to be the parapet Of a bridge,
and holding her baby, a round-faced,
rosy little creature, on her breast. The
pale sky of wintry midnight, studded
with stars, extends above the group,
and the moonlight surrounds it with a
blush luster. The woman is clad in
faded and worn out fnery, her crushed
bonnet is of black lace, and her latter
ed dress is OF silk, but hunger and de-
spalr are written on her haggard and
painted countenance. One feels that
for her and her baby there remains one
step, which would be only too easy to
take, from the parapet Of the bridge to
the cold waters beneath it. It is 9One
more unfortunate before the moment
of Hoods poem-the prologue, so to
speak, of the Bridge Of Sighs."'
