A Crushed Bustle.

The passengers in a Tenth street
car the other day, were convulsed
with laughter at the pointed allu-
sion made by corpulent passen-
ger to the enormous hustle worn by
lady rider. The passenger WAS a
market woman Of some three hun
dred pounds weight, who boarded
the car at Colum6ia avenue. !, The
seats on one side were comfortably
filled with men diligently reading
newspapers, and few cold-faced
women, who tried to stare the new
conner ont of conntenance. The
other side of the car was completely
filled by five young ladies, conspic-
uous among whom was a slender
beauty with wealth of hustle
spread out upon the seat. The
market woman soughtto crush har
with a look of withering scorn, but
with Indifferent success. Then she
adopted a plan of warfare that
ended the struggle most effectively
in the defeat of the hustle and the
CONSERVATION Of the lady passen-
gers. Suddenly planting her three
hundred pounds on the mammoth
hustle of the slender beauty, the
market woman exclaimed in fertile
brogue: "Move de hump, yer du-
dine; if yez had been born wild dat
ON yer back, wot a kick ye'd have
made !"
The beauty collapsed, the men
laughed loud and long, the ladies
stopped the car and retreated hug
ging their bustfes, while the victo-
rious market woman exchanged
smiles with the conductor, and
murmured few words about the
decline in "dudines" and hustle
wearing femininity Philadelphia

IOnpeyity.

Scientific men see no reason why the
span of human life may not be extended 10
Q round hundred years from the present
limit of 40 IN so years.
The age to which persons lived varied in
Old Testament chronology.
From Adams time TO that Of Methuselah
and Noah, men are recorded as attaining to
well nigh the age of 1000 years. Tho
Psalmist David however says: 1.-THE days
Of our age are three score years and ten;
and though men be so strong that they
come to four score years, yet is their
strength then but labor and sorrow; so
soon passeth il away and we are gone"
This wide margin of longevity, together
with proper observance OF mental, moral
and physical laws, lead investigators TO
believe that 1t is possible that human life
might be made TO increase in length of days
10 a full century, at least.
Moderation and regularity in eating,
drinking and sleeping are conducive to lon
gevity, and those who observe proper hab-
it's and use pure and ehcaciOus remedies
when sick, may accomplish immense labor
with no apparent injury TO themselves and
without foreshortening their lives.
! Hon. ii. III. Warner, President of the
! Rochester, N. Y, Chamber of Commerce,
and manufacturer of the celebrated War
hers Safe Cure, has devoted much time
| and research TO this sub ect of longevity,
and has arrived at the satisfactory conclu-
! sion that life may be prolonged and mans
virile powers increased and preserved at
the same time by rational and natural
means. Thousands of persons are living
to-day-enjoying the blessing of perfect
| health and vigor-who will testify TO the
| almost magical efficacy Of Warmers Safe
| Cure in restoring them to physical potency
| and to the normal type of constitution,
after they had almost given up hope OF
| life.
After middle age, many begin TO lose
their wonted vigOr of body, and thereupoD
! give way to inertness and useless repiDing.
| Yet all such have within reach that which
both renews youth and contributes 10 the
| prolongatiOn of life. Warmers marvellous
Safe Cures are in every drug store, and are
now regarded as standard specifics
throughout the civilized world
The strong desire TO attain old age
meantime retaining the virile powers Of
body and minds necessarily connected
with the respect paid to aged persons, for
people would scarcely desire to be old,
were the aged neglected or regarded with
mere sufferance. That is high civiliza-
tion in which age is made q source of dis
tinction. OF all marks of respect, that to
age is most willingly piid, because every
one who does homage to age may himself,
eventually, become an object of such hom-
| age.
