1.-THE thrcescore and ten years allotted to
man will yet be increased to twice that
number was the prediction made by DR..
Charles Hienkle. Instead OF the world
growing weakefand wiser, as the old axiom
puts il, Il is growing wiser and stronger.
The average length Of life is steadily in
creasing. In the days of good Queen Bess
women were considered passe at thirty, and
few men distinguished themselves in state
craft, science or literature after passing
Eve and sixty. Now a woman is in the
heydey Of her beauty at thirty, and the
ripest fruits of genius are frequently
plucked at threescore and ten. Gladstone.
Bismarck and Blaine are fair examples of
that green and fruitful old age so frequent
in these days. Yet science is but in its in
fancy. As it progresses the waste of life
and energy will be gradually curtailed.
"While the fountain of youth sought by
that interesting old crank, Ponce de Leon,
will probably never be found; while man
will probably never discover the secret of
remaining an ever young Apollo, nor wom-
an that of being as attractive at sixty as
at sixteen, 1 firmly believe that the merid-
ian OF life will yet be raised from thirty
Eve TO seventy; that the day will come
when a man will not be considered a back
number when he has reached his Tooth
birthday. "-St. Louis Globe Democrat.
Evening journal., 1892-09-05
where the colonel ma nlm.

Colonel Sterrepp is a newspaper man and
a great reader of standard matter. Not
long ago he met a young fellow who beat
him out on a question of Biblical history
and the colonel sought to get even.
"That boy of yours, " he said to the young
fellows father sis a bright one, but l
guess / downed him."
"How2" inquired the father with good
deal of curiosity.
"Well, went home after he faxed me
out on that Biblical point and read up on
the Peloponnesian war-did you ever hear
of the peloponnesian war;"
The father said he had, and the colonel
looked disappointed.
"And, he resumed, "T came at him on
it the next time 1 had n chance and, by
thunder, sir, he told me he had not only
heard Of it but Ind studied about it in his
school. Say, did you ever hear Of the
Peloponnesian war when you was boyi"
