Civilization and Longevity.

Civilization is gradually prolonging
the term of human existence. As il in
sympathy with the great centennial year
of A mrrican independ' nee, the hal" and
hearty old people who have survived
their own century of years are coming
numerousy into view. Mrs. Mary
Vaughn, II nntivc Nirgnian, celebrated
her hundrelth birthday, in Williamson
county, Tennessee, the other day, and II
large number OF her $50 living descend
ants gathered around her on that occ,'
sion. She is the mother Of seven sons
and eight daughters, all giants in stat
ure, and in the crowd who came 10 ce'c-
brnte her centennial anniversary, there
WAS scarce man of less stature than six
feet. And there still remains the vrner'
able Timothy Todd OF Boston, who,
when boy, was possessed ofa dcsper'
ate desire TO embark on the frigate Con-
stitutiOn when she was launched in l704.
The officers refused to take him on
board, but when the vessel began to
move he jumped on the anchor, which
was swinging from her bow, and climbed
on deck. He is now nincty.tive years
old, is still hale and hearty, and only IT..
grets that he was not born five ye'rs
earlier.
Among the centennarians who have
died lately appears the name OF Don Ra-
fael Gonzalez, a Cuban patriarch, whose
death occurred in the Vucl Abajo district,
of sheer astonishmcnt ut n sick spell. He
had ten sons, and three Of his sons
brought him 2T9 immediate descendants.
But by far the most extraordinary case
of longevity is that Of Manuel Jose AL
fonso, of San Jose, in Brazil, who de-
parted this life recently mt the agc Of 100,
having for many years believed that the
angel of death had forgotten all about
him.

fTbis beautiful poem Was composed years
ago by Henry stanton, Maysvillc Ky. Such
gem. Of poetry arr not often met with, "n''
Ten by authors whose names arc never known
In historyl
Is there no place on the face of the earth
Where charity dwclleth, where virtue ha'
birth?
Where bosoms in kindness and mercy Will
heavc,
And the poor and tho wrctcLcd shall ask and
receiver
Is there no place on earth where knock from
the poor
Will bring kind angel to open the door,
All search the wide world wherever you can,
There is no open door for the moncylcss man.
Go look in the hall where the chandelier light
Drives off with its splendor the darkness OF
night;
Where the rich hanging velvet in shadOwy
fold,
Sweeps gracefully down, with its trimming OF
gold,
And mirrors Of silver take up and renew
In long lighted vistas the 'wildcring view;
Go there in your patches, and find ifyou can
A welcoming smile for the moneylcss man.
10 look in your church Of the cloud-rcaching
spirc,
Which gives back to the sun his same look OF
fire,
Where the arches aud columns are gorgeous
within,
Aud the walls seem as pure as a soul without
sin;
Go down the long aislc-see the rich and the
great,
In the pomp and the pride of their worldly
estate,
Walk down IN your patches, and find II you
can,
Who opens pew for a moneyiess man,
Go look to your judges, In dark flowing gown,
With the scales wherein law weigheth quietly
down.
Where he frowns on the weak and smiles on
the strong,
And Furnishes right while he justi6es wrong;
where jurors their lips on the Bible have laid
To render verdict they've already made;
60 there In the COURTROOM, and find II you
can,
ANY law for the case OF a moreylcss man.
Go look in the banks, where Mammon has
told
His hundreds and thousands OF silver and gold;
Where, safe from the hands Of the starving
and poor,
Lies pile upon pile Of the glittering orei
Walk up to the cOunter-ah, there you may
stay, -a
Till your limbs haze grown old and your hair
turns gray,
And You'll lind ai the bank not one OF the clap
with money 10 lend TO "a moneylcss man.
Then go 10 your hovel--oo raven has fed
The wife who has suffered so long for her
bread:
Kneel down BY her pallet and kiss the death
frost
From the lips Of the angel your poverty lost
Then turn in your agony upward to God,
And bless while 1t smtes you, the Christening
rod;
And you'll find at the end of your lies little
span,
There's welcome above for the moneyiess
man.

CHEAP DIET FoRHARD TINES,

can Investigating Economist
writes as follows to the Philadelphia
Ledger about a cheap diet for hard
times: In these times of slack occu-
patton the experimental deductions
of investigating economists become
valuable. A working mechanic
with reduced pay, [ Fave tried hard
to keep up with the times by lessened
expenditure. Having read the
newspaper accounts Of the man who
lived on S. year, gaming twenty
pounds, under a regimen Of corn
meal, we tried that article but found
it insipid and finally nauseous.
The Endorsement of buckwheat as a
sustaining food by an eminent judge
induced us to try it; we found buck
wheat non-susceptible of variety in
cooking, and we soon ''stalled" on
slapiacks. Potatoes failed to keep
up our bodily strength.
Next We tried cat starch, with
this result: My wife, son and self
confined ourselves to rations of three
plnts of thick porridge pee day,
varying the ''dip" dressing with
butter, sugar, nutmeg, lemon juice,
or molasses. We enjoyed excellent
health, with regular digestion. AT
the expiration Of two weeks | found
myself four and a quarter pounds
heavier. My wife had gained three
pounds, willie the lad had increased
over five pounds. Our food outlay
for fourteen days was exactly $3.50,
or less than Z cents per day for each
person. We are now pursuing the
same course, with an occasional
ssmixed meal"

Mr.. Keith Johnson, the well
known geographer, who has recently
made journey through Paraguay,
states that yerba, or Paraguay tea,
the staple product Of that country,
is believed to yield a finer tea when
grown in its native state and habit
than when cultivated. Large plan
tations, one of which contained as
many as twenty thousand trees,
were formed by the early missiona-
ries, and hourished in the latter part
of the last century, but their pro-
duct was not considered superior to
the wild tea.
