LONGEVITY.
What is the Extreme Limit of Human
Life?

What is the Extreme Limit of Human
Life?
Popular Science Monthly
Can man reach and pass the age of 100
years? is a question concerning which
psychologists have different opinions
Button was the first one in France to
raise the question of the extreme limit
| Of human life. In his op Mon man, be-
coming adult at IS, ought to live six
times that age, or to SO years. Having
been called upon to account tor the phe-
nomenal ages attributed by the Bible to
| the patriarchs, he risked the following
Us an explanation: Before the food
| the earth was less solid, less compact
| than it is now. The law of gravitation
| had acted for only little time; the pro-
| auctions of the globe had less consist
| ency, and the body of man, being more
susceptible of extension. Being able to
| grow for longer time, it should, in con-
sequence, live for a longer time than
now"
The German Heusler has suggested
on the same point that the ancients did
| not divide time as we do. Previous to
the age of Abraham, the year, among
some people of the East, was only three
months, or a season; so that they had a
year of spring, one of summer, one of
fall and one of the winter. The year
was extended so as to consist of eight
months after Abraham and of twelve
months after Joseph. Voltaire rejected
the longevity assigned to- the patriarchs
of the Bible, but accepted without ques-
ton the stories of the great ages attain
ed by some men in India, where, he
says, sit is not rare to see old men of
120 years." The eminent French
psychologists, Flourens, fixing the
complete development of man at 20
years, teaches that he should live
five times as long as it takes him to be-
come an adult. According to this author,
the moment of completed develop
ment may be recognized by the fact of
the junction Of the bones with their apo
pyses. This junction takes place in
horses at five years, and the horse does
not live beyond twenty-five years; with
the OK at four years, and 1t does not live
over twenty years; with the cat at eigh-
teen months, and that animal rarely
lives over ten years. When it is effect
ed at twenty years, he only exception
ally lives beyond 100 years. The same
physiologist admits, however, that hui
man life may be exceptionally prolonged
under certain conditions ofcomfort, So
briefly, freedom from care, regularity of
habits, and observance of the rules of
hygiene, and he terminates his interest
ing study of the last point ''De la long
vite humaine~ with the aphorism,
Man kills himself rather than dies"

MAKING MOVE IN THE CHOIR.

She sat on the steps OF the organ loft
just after the second hymn:
And through nave and choir TO the cool gray spir
The SOUND rose faint and dim,
As they settled themselves in the church below
For the sermon that followed next,
And seated myself at the altos side
As the parsou took his TEXT
marked the tender flush Of her cheek,
And the CLEAN of her golden hair,
Tie SNOWY kerchief round her neck,
Aud her throat all white aud bare:
throat so white that indeed it might
An anch0rite entice,
And family heard the parsons w.rl
As he preached of Paradise.
NV arm stole gently around her waist
Until our fingers met:
And fitting blush made the tender flush
OF ner cheek grow deeper yet.
Snowy aud fair the hand beneath,
And brown the palm above,
Aud the brown closed softly over the white
As the parSou spoke Of love.
All, who is wise. when deep blue eyes
Meet his and look cuyly down?
Who would hut drink, nor care TO think
OF eCTYS jealous frowu?
Twas but II bend till felt her breath
Grow warm ou my cheek, and then
My Inns just softly touched her own

The Chicago, ST. Paul, Minneapolis Omaha

fail to be appreciated by dealers in the South
west, who have suffered by delays in shipments
from competing points These through lumber
trains make no stops at way stations, except for
the locomotives to coal up aud water, and at
ends of divisions. They, like passenger trains,
are not subjected to switching delays, waits
for other freight trains This business is a
good thing for our local lumber markets, as
we'll as for Southwestern customers. Yester-
day at p. IN. full train of twenty-four cars,
loaded with lumber, left Eau Claire, Wis, for
Omaha, Nob., the frs: train under the new
order of things. This system will be kept up,
to fully develop the lumber trade and keep the
Omaha line in the front rank for enterprise.

DeniaIs That Convict.
New York Times.l

Mr.. Blaine's behavior on the witness
stand yesterday was precisely what might
have been expected. He was forewarned by
Mr.. Belmont's questions toward the close OF
his examination on Monday snat the part
played by the Landreau- claim in our South
American diplomacy would be inquired
into at the next session of the Committee.
He was not taken by surprise, therefore.
when that delicate subject was preached
yesterday, and by a mixture of evasion and
denial, interspersed here and there with
him little too closely, he contrIved to
guard all his secrets, while at the same time
protesting that he was telling everything be
knew. Begging the Committee to leave no
stone unturned, he indignantly exclaims,
How dare you'll when they
approach the particular stone under which
they and the public have excellent reasons
for suppOsing that some interesting things
sre hidden. II hope, sir, that you will not
forget that you are questioning q lady"
says witness just in time 10 stave OFF a
question which would have proved that she
was not one. Il hope, Mr.. Belmont, you will
be a gentleman" cries Mr.. Blaine. Il am
not in a Police Court to be badgered," and
again, Il must confess that this seems ex-
traordinary examination" In Mr. Blaine's
position these tactics were the most effective
he could have chosen. The trouble is that
Mr.. Blaine can not tell all he knows about
the Landreau claim without disclosin far
more than he ever intends to disclose of the
motives anG instruments of his policy to-
ward Peru. But Mr.. Blains's behavior I'M
der the questioning of Mr.. Belmont gives
proof as clear as can be asked tor that his
present policy in respect TO the Laudreau
claim is one Of prudent concealment.
