Age and Endurance,

1t is undoubtedly true that when mon have
reached a certain stage in the downhnll OF life
1t becomes them to walk with cautious steps, for
a stumble then will be a very different thing
from what 1t would have been when they were
full of youth and strength. Yet, strangely
enough, old men, notwithstanding all the Wis
dom which comes from experience, do not like
to admit that their ply sical faculties have been
decayed, but often say that they feel
az young as ever they did. The late May
or Havemeyer, OF New York, although past
his three score aud ten, kept up the battle OF
life with marvellous self-rellance, and after walk
ing two miless to the o.ty hall, facing strong
wind, with no other purpose than to sign a pay
roll, congratulated himself that he never felt
better nor drawer. Wind and weather were
nothing to him, and yet, in the flush OF his tri-
umphant boast, he fell suddenly dead

hections on the incident, which those spirited
