To Live Long and Get Rich.

A Sun reporter visited Mr.. Peter
Cooper, and asked two interesting
questions. One was how he had
managed to live SO long, and the
other how he got rich.
In answer to the first question
Mr.. Cooper said: 81 should put it
in two words: Live sOberly and
righteously. We are required not
TO eat to much, nor to drink too
much, nor to work too much, nor
to play too much. We are living
on earth under beautiful and bene-
ficient laws, laws designed in inf
mite wisdom for the elevation of
mankind. | infer that just in pro-
portion as we live in obedience to
these laws we shall have health and
comfort. If we llisobey these laws
we shall pay the penalty. The
penalty of disobedience must be
paid somewhere, at some time"
"How did you get rich ?"
SIN the first place, / learned
three trades. / learned to be a
brewer, a coach maker, and a ma
chinist, all before was q years old.
/ worked three years at 81 50a day,
and | saved enough out of that to
get a start in life. l was making
machines to shear cloth. Then l
bought the patent right of the ma
chine and made them for sale. That
was before the war of 1872"
"What general rule have you adj
opted in business 2" was asked.
"One was that / determined to
give the world an equivalent in
some form of useful labor for all
that / consumed in it. | went on
and enlarged my business, all the
while keeping out of debt. | can
not recoIlect time when / could
not pay what | owed any day. /
would not spend money before /
earned it. Another rule l had was
to keep clear of the banks. / never
asked them for ccommodation. /
never got them to discount notes,
because did not wish to incur any
obligation without a certainty of
being able to pay it. In that way l
managed to keep clear of panics.
My rule was Pay as you go. l
can't remember the time when any
man could not have had for the
asking what L o,Oed. Another thing
/ wish to say: All the money | ev-
er made was in mechanical business
and not in speculation"
Clarksville weekly chronicle. (Clarksville, Tenn.) 1873-1890, 1881-04-02

There is not the remotest corner
or little inlet of the minute blood
vessels of the human body that
does not feel some wavelet from the
convulsion occasioned by good
hearty laughter. The life principle
or the central man, is shaken to
the innermost depths, sending new
tides of life and strength to the sur
face, thus materially tending to in
sure good health to the persons who
indulge therein. The blood moves
more rapidly and conveys a differ
ent impression to all the organs of
the body, as it visits them on that
particular mystic journey when the
man is laughing, from what it does
at other times. For this reason ev-
cry good hearty laugh in which a
person indulges lengthens his life,
conveying, as it does, new and dis
tinct stimulus to the vital forces.
Doubtless the time will come when
physicians, conceding more impOr-
tance than they now do to the in
fluence of the mind upon the vital
forces of the body, will make up
their prescriptions more with refer
ence to the mind and less drugs for
them and will IN so doing, find
the best and most effective method
of producing the required effect up
on the patient.

what Is n Cold?

To enjoy life, one must be in good
health and TO remain free from
disease is the desire of all. Yet
there are some ailments which do
not interfere very much with the
pleasures of life, and therefore are
not dreaded in consequence-nay,
more, they are frequently treated
with neglect, although in many in
stances they are the precursors of
more serious disorders, which may
in not few cases have a fatal ter
mination How often, to the usu-
al greetings which one friend ex-
changes with another, is the reply
given, every well, thank you, eX-
cept a little cold" A little cold,
and yet how significant this may be!
In how many cases do we find a
''little cold" resemble a little seed,
which may sooner or later develop
into a mighty tree ! A little cold
neglected may, and frequently does
prove itself to be thing not to be
trified with. Let me, then, pray
my readers to remember that small
beginnings in not q few instances
have big endings, and this especial
Iy where disease exists. Let us
then, consider what is common
cold.
In the first place, we must be par
adoxical, and affirm that it is not "A
cold at all. 1t is rather "a heat, if /
may so express myself, that is, it is
q form of fever, but, of course, of a
very mild type when it is uncom-
plicated by other diseases. 1t is
certainly in the majority of instan-
ces due to the effects of cold playing
upon some portion of the body, and
reacting upon the mucous men,
brane through the intervention Of
the nervous apparatus. What is
called a cold, then, in reality a few
er; and, though in the majority of
instances it is of such trivial ma
ture as to necessitate few precau-
tions being taken during its attack,
yet in some cases it runs a most
acute course, and may be followed
by great prostration. Even when
the premOnitory symptoms Of cold
are developing themselves, when,
for example, what a medical man
calls rigor, or, as it is popularity
designated, shivering is felt, when
we would naturally suppose that
the animal temperature is below
par, it is at that very moment high
re than the normal, thus showing the
onset of fever.

The following prediction, which
has been in part verified, is taken
from a speech made in the United
States senate by the Hon. MahlOn
FL, Dickerson, of New jersey, in
1919. The time he anticipated has
come and is upon us. Read and be
convinced:
Sir, the time may come when our
country will be filed with an army
of pensioners, always the friends of
arbitrary power. The time will
come when we shall have numer-
Gus host of officers, civil and mill
tary, in every department of the
government, spread over our i'm
mense territory, looking up to the
president as the source of power
and emoluments. The time will
come when luxury and extrava-
gance will Danish from our country
every species of republican virtue;
and the time will come, l fear,
when this senate will be no more
than the shadow of what it was in
tended to be by those who framed
our constitution when it will be no
check upon the executive; when 1T
shall be as insignificant as the
boasted senate of Rome in the time
of Tiberius. The whole patronage
of government will center in the
president, and that patronage, un-
der our present system of choosing
electors, will become a machine of
irresistible power. The manage
ment of this power will become
matter of science. He will be
deemed the greatest politician and
the ablest minister who can, with a
given amount of patronage, produce
the greatest effect. The force of this
power will be applied to effect the
purposes of ambition with as much
economy and skill as water is APP
piled to the wheel, or that of steam
to the engine.

wouIdn,t Accent a Favor.

1t is related of Judge Alfred
Conkling, Senator Conkling's
father, that while he was a Judge of
the United States District court for
the northern district of New York,
he was able to give a valuable
amount of advertising, worth about
$40, 900, to the Albany journal. He
called at the newspaper Office one
day, when one of the persons con-
nected with the Journal said to
him Judge, the Journal has
reason to be very grateful to you;
and / have to say tU you, sir, that
the proprietOrs of the paper have
requested me to ask you to accept
from the company, as slight token
of their esteem and thanks, the
present of suit of clOthes."
Clothes in those days were often So
lected for presents between friends.
Judge Conkling drew himself up,
and said, very emphatically, mo,
sir; no, sir; nothing of the kind can
be permitted or thought of. No OBJ
legation has been incurred none at
all, sir: no expression or any sense
of il will be allowed" The Judge
then said, "I dropped in here be-
cause was reminded at my home
of the fact that have not paid for
your paper for two years past, and
/ came to settle for it during that
time" "But," was the reply,
"Judge, you do not owe us any
thing for that paper. We sent it 10
you free, and have so entered it,"
nNo, sir,n said the Judge; 81 thank
you for your courtesy you can,
doubtless, in your position, feel able
to send me your paper, as you say
but /, in my position, can not afford
to accept of that or any OFher
favor"
