How to Prolong Life,

A scientific writer says that anatom-
ical experiment and investigation show
that the chief characteristic of old age
are deposits of earthly matter of a
celatinous and 6brinous character in
the human system. Carbonate and
phospate of lime mixed with other salts
of a Calcareous nature have been found
to furnish the greater part OF these
earthly deposits. As observation shows,
man begins in a gelatinous condition.
He ends in an osseous or bony one,
soft in infancy, hard in old age. By
gradual change in the long space of
years the Justification comes on, but
after passing middle life more marked
development of the ossltic character
takes place. OF course these earthly
deposits which affect all the physical
organs naturally interfere with their
functions. Partial ossfication Of the
heart produces the imperfect circulation
of the blood which affects the aged.
When the arteries are clogged with cal
careous matter, there is interference
with the circulation, upon which nutrl-
ton depends, Without nutrition there
is no repair of the body. Hence in his
"The Physiology of Common Life,
G.. H. Lewes states that "if the repair
were always identical with the waste
life would only then be terminated by
accident, never by old age" Both
Bichat and Baillie considered that the
greater number of people past sixty
suffer more or less from arterial osslti
cation, which brings about Instructions
in the proper and healthy circulation o
the blood.

Aka Pigmies.

DR. Stuhlmann has brought home
two Aka pigmies. He rescued them
from the man-eating tribes of the Man
lena. These little fellows undoubtedly
belong to the most interesting pigmy
tribe in Central Africa. The Lead is
unusually large and sits on a slender,
thin neck. The upper body Is long,
the shoulders strikingly broad, with
long, thin arms dangling from them.
All the joints are large and clumsy
except the hands, which betray great
refinement of contour and delicacy.
Not much is known of their language,
The two pigmies are aged seventeen
and fifteen years old, respectively; both
are females. For their tour around
the world they have been dressed in
childish fashion, with short frocks.
Their behavior before an audience is
extremely childish, They either hide
their faces behind their hands, turn
their backs on the spectators or laugf
and giggle immoderately All theil
motions are apish.
AT present the German anthropclo
sists are attempting to decide whethe
the reduced size Of their bodies is due
to physical degeneration or whethe
accommodating themselves to the terri
torial conditions Of their native lane
has brought about gradual recon
struction of their firms.

MAI. j. B. COBB DEAD.
Heart Failure Carries OF One of Ma
cons Most Prominent Citizens.

Macon, Ca, Nov. 21.-Maj, j. B. Cobb,
one of the oldest and best known men in
the state of Georgia, died suddenly this
morning.
Mai Cobb left home in his usual good
health to come down town on the street
car. just before he reached the corner
of Cherry street and Cotton avenue he
was attacked with heart failure, with
which he has for quite a long time been
troubled. He realized that he was weak
ening very fast and called the attention of
Holmes johnson and some other friend
sitting close to him TO his CON
dition. The car was STOPPED at the
corner, and Maj Cobb was carried into a
drug store and DIR. Hall, his family ply
stefan for many years, summoned, but
within few minutes after being laid
upon lounge the major died
Maj. Cobb was 90 years of age, and was
born at Athens, Ga. He was brother of
Gen. Howell Cobb and of Gen Thomas
r. r. Cobb. He leaves five children, four
daughters, all unmarried, and one son, j.
j. Cobb. of this city.
The funeral takes place tomorrow from
the Mulberry street Methodist church, of
which he was a consistent member.

THE LADY OR THE TIGER.
Mr.. Stockton's Confession With Re-
spect to His Famous Puzzle.

spect to His Famous Puzzle.
From the Ladies Home Journal.
Frank Stocton, after having been be-
sought for years to tell the anxious pub
lie whether il was the lady or the tiger
that emerged from the cage in his famous
story, says that he really doesn't know
He never did know. Not being either a
woman or a semi-barbarian he said that
it was impossible for him to guess which
door the princess would indicate to her
lover. But he has received any number
of solutions of the mystery from inter-
ested readers of his story, and he gives
some of them.
Robert Browning in a letter to a
friend, stated what he thought, as fol-
lows:
Dear: According to your desire I
read the story in question last evening, and
have no hesitation in supposiug that such
princess, in such circumstances, would
| direct her lover to the tigers door; mind,
emphasize such and so circumstanced a
| person"
A most ingenious version of the story
was one in which the hot and Jealous
! blood of the princess prompts her to in
! dictate the tigers door. That door is
opened and the tiger energies, not, how
ever, with roar and spring, but with a
slow and easy tread. Gazing arou-d the
! assembled multitude, he approaches the
| young man. who stands alone in the arena
rubs himself contidingly against his legs
! purrlng the while, and then, yawning to
an extent which exhibits TO all the specta-
| tors the possibilities of the might have
! been, he walks to a spot where the wall
| throws a shade upon the ground of the
arena, and stretching himself upon the
! sand, he falls into a pleasant nap The
! reason for this extraordinary conduct on
! the part of the animal was easily dis
! covered having been half starved for
| several days. in order to make him more
| ferocious, he had become aware of the
| presence of a young and tender lady in
! the compartment adjoining his own. and,
| breaking down the partition between the
two, he had dragged her into his cell and
! devoured the damsel, and then, his appe-
| tite having been fully satisfied, he walked
into the arena without feeling any desire
whatever for further refreshment.
One cynical man decided that the lover
! opened the door of the compartment
which contained the lady, and accord
! ingly married her After few months
of welded existence, however, he discov-
! cred that he had chosen both the lady
and the tiger
A rather interesting fact in connection
! with the problem is that when the ques-
| ton, The Lady or the Tigerin was put
| to club Of women in London, nine out OF
| thirteen thought that the princess would
! have indicated the lady; while out of a
! class Of twenty-four at Vassar, eighteen
! voted for the tiger. Which is an instruc-
! tive lesson as regards the morbidness OF
! the youthful mind.
