HUNTERS in the Far West sometimes
make the acquaintance Of wild animals
which they are able TO distinguish from
their fellows for long time. Such 4.
one was q grizzly bear which hunter
named Davis often hunted and trapped
in Nevada. Davis saws that hc first
got the bear into trap in 1868. The
bear dragged the trap around young
tamarack tree and tore il to pieces.

strong iron jaws fourteen inches wide
when open The old bear came every
night 10 feed on oxen and horses that
died as freight teams passed. He hurt
his jaws considerably, and Davis fol.
lowed him through the snow by bis
bloody tracks. Coming up 10 him one
day as he stood In some chapparal, Da-
Wis fired charge Of shot from his long
ducking gun, hitting him in The
shoulder, and the old fellow fell. but
got up and started on falling twice
more. The year following Davis got
him IN trap again. but he shook Il On
and escaped That same summer lie

pounds when alive. lie thinks Club

he saw him last. lie got very gray,

big bear spoken 81 above was female
and was old Clubfoot's mate. They
were always near together. After ho
lost her Clubloot refused all sympathy

associate with his kind again. Davis IL
satisfied that he il dead. No one his

ITwas Prof. Huicland's opinion that
the limit Of possible human lie might
be set at 200 years. This on the gen
eral principle that the life Of creature
i eight times the years Of it, period Of
growth That which i quickly formed
quickly perishes. and the earlier COM
pleic development i reached the soon
er bodily decay ensucs. More women
reach old age than men. but more men
attain remarkable longevity than wom-
en-. Some animals grow TO be very old.
Horned animals live shorter lives than
those without horns. fierce longer than
timid. and amphibous longer than those
which inhabit the air. The voracious
PIKE exists. il IS said. TO an age Of $50
years; the turtle Is good for hundred
years or more; and among birds the
golden eagle Is known to have lived
nearly 200 years, while the sly and
somber crow reaches the venerable age
Of century. Passing up in the scale
Of life to man, and skipping the patri-
archs, we lind many recorded instances
OF longevity among the classic Greeks
and Romans. Pliny notes that N the
reign Of the Emperor vespasian. in the
year ~. there were l24 men living in
the limited area between the Apennines
and the Po Of 100 years and upward.
three Of whom were 40 and four over
135. Ciccro's wife lived to the age Of
l03. and the Roman actress Lucia
played in public As late as her l12th
year.
Coming down TO more recent times
the most notable authentic instance Of
great age Is that Of Henry jenkins. Of
Yorkshire. Eng. who died in 1870. 162
years old. he was fisherman. and at
the age Of 100 easily swan across rapid
rivers. Another historic case Is that Of
Thomas Parr. Of Shropshire. day-la-
borer who lived 70 the age OF 1852 years.
When more than 10 he married his sec
'ond wife. and til 40 he could swing
thc scythc and WELD the Hail with the
best Of his fellow laborers In his 1921
year Parr went up 70 London TO exhibit
himself 70 the King. Il proved an I'M
lucky visit, for violating the abstemi-
Gus habit Of a century and half the
old man feasted 50 freely on the royal
victuaIs that he soon died merely Of
plethora. On examination his internal
organs proved 60 be in excellent condi-
tion. and there was no reason WHY he
should not have lived much longer save
for this unfortunate taste Of royal hos
pitality. Prof. Hufcland's roll Of CEN
tenarians includes many more remarka-
bic cases. among them that Of Mittle-
steit. q Prussian soldier. who served 81
years under both Frcdericks. lighting
many battles and enduring much hard
campaigning. and who after all this
married successfully three wives. the
last when he was ITO, only two years be-
fore his death. - Springfield Republican.
