The above is from a very reliable farmer
whose daughter was in poor health for seven or
eight years and could obtain no relief until she
used Hop Bitters. She is now in as good health
as any person in the country. We have large

The Length of Human Life.

Reasoning from analogy, men ought
to live 9, century, as it seems to be a
general law in the animal creation that
life should be FIVE times the period re-
quired for growth Many of the in
sect tribes mature and fructify in an
hour and die before the close of the
day. A dog grows fol two years and
lives for eight; an OK grows for four
years and lives sixteen a horse grows
for FIVE years and lives twenty-five; a
camel grows for eight years and lives
forty man grows to twenty years
and should live to one hundred. 1t is
a recognized fact in physiology that the
longer child is getting its full growth,
the longer it will live. Early ripe,
early rot, is almost proverb. Chill
dren who grow rapidly are always
weakly. In France the rich men aver
age twelve years of life longer than the
poor. Observation in all civilized
countries shows that the well-to-do
live eleven years longer than those who
have to work for their daily bread.
Those who can afford to work leisurely
in doors outlive those who have to
work hard out of doors by ten or fif-
teen years and if there was no Sab
bath it is very clear that the poor
would not live as long as they do now.
The Care OF the Hand
Many persons especially farmers
neglect their hands. Hard work will
of course make the hands hard, but
they need not on that account be un.

can, by the use of this, keep his hands

across the soap and scrub the finger

trouble with the hands is from split
