THE MATTER OF EATING.
Some of tho Causes and circumstances

Some of tho Causes and circumstances
Of Longevity.
1t may seem hard that man who
in youth has known the pinch of
poverty, who remembers how the cut
of mutton with a supply of potatoes
and greens scarcely sutficed for
vigorous appetite. should find that in
the prosperity of later life an eight
course dinner fails to tempt him, and
that, nevertheless, his physician
warns him, that, the attack of govt
from which he is suffering means
that he is eating TOO much, and that
his diet must be lowered.
Is life, then, mover TO give salts
faction2 Must youth know hunger
and old age safety? Must the poor
muscle-workcr never have enough
food to give energy to his frame, and
must the rich idler have so much to
eat that disease is the consequence?
To find the happy man, to live ac
cording to sweet rcasonablenes and
knowledge is the aim of the teaching
of science, aud if to these are added
the principles of Christian commun-
ism, the wealth of latcr life will not
lead TO seIf-induIgencc, but TO the
mitigation OF the suflcrings OF those
who want the means OF life.
One of many splendid examples is
that Ola gentleman now in possession
OF large income who in his youth
lived on a salary of ten shillings a
week. He early made up his mind
that to eat little and drink less would
be his rule in life 10 this resolution
he has adhered. though fortune has
come to him Nearly an octoge-
marian, he is still man of untiring
vigor of bodyand mind. Simple in
life, he dispcnscs his great fortune
as custodian for his Master. while
living amid the refinement and cult
urcd surroundings OF an English
gentleman. Sir GEORGE Humphrey
has investigated the life histories of
centenarians in England with the
view Of ascertaining the causes and
circumstances of longevity.
As one reads of the habits and life
OF these men and women who at
tanned to the age OF 100 years and
more one is struck by the fact that
they were almost invariably lean
people, of spare habit, and of great
moderation in eating and drinking.
OF thirty-seven three took no animal
food, four took very little, ton a
moderate amount, and only one ac-
knowlcdged taking much meat.
With regard to alcohol the returns
are much tho same, and abstemious-
ness is found to be tho rule of life OF
these centenarians.

HOW MEN Oct RICH
Short TAX, Number Ono.

| Some get rich in one way; some In
another; some-a great many don't get
I rich at all. Some receive windfalls; a
| great many do rot. Some get rich by
speculation; great many become poor
| through speculation There is no royal
| road to wealth. The man who sent re-
| cipe as follows, came as near giving exact
directions as anyone can 'Work like the
very d. and save every cent you earn"
There are, however, certain recognized
means for acquiring wealth that conserva-
tive men everywhere approve. More men,
| probably, acquire riches through judicious
investment in real estate than through any
| other one method. We say judicious in
vestment. There is no more certain road
to financial ruin, perhaps, than reckless
| real estate Investments. 'Plungers'' make
| big fortunes in boom towns in quick time;
| lose them just as quickly-usually. In
vestments in real estate may, on the one
hand, be speculative entirely so you play
| to win or loose, and most men loose le-
| gitimate and business-lik investments on
the other hand, usually win and pay bet

Cleveland put it, 1.-THE earth remains in its

choice real estate does not find ready sale,
but there never was a reasonably good
| piece of real estate that didn't afford its
owner recurring opportunities for selling

torrent, from flooding the lower portions
of town. The warm days had started

was higher than it has been for several
years. A good deal Of ballasting, shovel
ing and cutting was done with re suits
of saving a breach of the creeks banks
and preventing a flood of any
For a time it appeared
that the water would surely burst its
confines.
The stream below town is augmented
by the confluence of Carpenter and
Harley creeks which have both out done
themselves in the volume of their out
put. Several washouts of the railroad
grade have occurred between there and
Monarch but nothing of any serious con
sequence.
A train ran Thursday to Monarch, but
orders from Helena reached here yester-
day that no trains on the Belt Mt
Branch will be run from Great Falls
until further notice.
The cold spell of yesterday has
greatly reduced the flow of the
creek and it is hoped by Monday that
all repairs can be made and train service
resumed.
