Are People Living Longer?

The careful examination Of vital sta
tistics, it is generally conceded, indi-
Gates that the average duration of hui
man life has been increasing during
the past two centuries. But this does
not necessarily imply that a larger
number of people now reach the age
of seventy, eighty, or even ninety than
in times past. It means only, that,
taking thousand persons at random,
the average age of each at death ex-
ceeds that of the same number of per-
sons a generation ago, yet less people
in a thousand now reach the age of
sixty. Two causes may be assigned
for this. One is that hygiene and
physical culture are now better un-
derstood, and the mortality among
children and young people is much
less. The other is, that the strain
upon people in middle life who are
doing the worlds work is much great
er, owing to thoincreased competition
and the rushing methods of business.
These conditions cannot be changed,
but if one would live long there must
be seasons of relaxation or vacation.
Perhaps the best way to spend such a
season is to travel to new scenes and
acquire in new ideas. Railroads are
the means OF travel, and among them
all none will take you in more direc-
tions or make the journey SO safe,
speedy and comfortable as the Bur
lington Route. For maps, rates and

On Washinuton's birthday the hall
of congress was the scene of a very
disorderly and disgraceful perform
ance. Incorporate language was
used and much bad temper shown
over the arrests made by the Sargent
alarms in his endeavor to secure a
quorum. All citizens without regard
to party affiliations will feel mortified
and humiliated, that the nations
representatives should SO far forget
themselves, their position and the
occasion. Their discreditable con-
duct brings the blush of shame to
every cheek and while there may have
been provocation over unnecessary
force and lack of discretion in
making arrests, yet there was nothing
to warrant such proceedings, and the
insane actions and utterances were
disgraceful in the extreme.

promise a good deal in theory. A
Chicago judge in a recent decision
has practically rendered the law in
operative by declaring, that under the

claims Tawney should father it. The
fact is that the method of transacting
business in the legislature is more
than aught else responsible for inn
mature legislation. During the first
weeks of the session, little or no
business is transacted, and laws that
need careful consideration are dumped
into the grab bag with wood chucks
