Of suffering at the hands Of the

bonds Of the United States,
payable forty years after date, and
based solely upon the credit Of the
country and not upon gold, are
worth a premium in foreign
countries, why is not the green
back--the non-interest bearing
due bill Of the government, based
upon the same credit, good money
in America and for Americans?
Is there any logical reason for

A correspondent writes to the
Examiner to learn whether the
longevity Of human life has been
on the increase or decrease in the
last 80 or 100 years, also whether
the hight of humans has been in
creasing or decreasing. The an
swer is: "The average duration of
life is increasing, Statistics on
this point are not exact, and the
facts are not the same in the differ
ent countries. 1t is estimated that
nearly five years have been added
to the average term of life Of the
people of the civilized world as the
result of the conquest of disease by
medicine and hygiene, the better
nourishment and the greater phys
ical comfort given to man in these
days. There has probably been a
small increase in height"

DoNT EAT FAST.

For the benefit of those who are
running their health by fast eating,
as did the late Mr.. Gresham, | feel
justified in describing his manner
of eating, which was once able to
observe, says an eminent physician
of New York. 1t was in Washing
ton at time when he had many
complications on his hands. He
felt that he could spare no time
from his duties, and made the fatal
mistake of trying to economize on
the time which he should have de-
voted to his meals. He was living
at hotel and his wife was not
in town. Day after day he would
rush in at the luncheon. His wait
er knew what was expected of him,
and almost before the secretary
had time to sit down his food was
before him. To save time it was
all cold. In three minutes he was
gone. He had swallowed in that
time quantity of food to which he
should have devoted at least halfan
hour. On top of a lot of cold beet,
badly cooked and hastily eaten, he
he would pour down great glass
of cold milk. Milk cannot be
drunk safely except very slowly
Food eaten too quickly will ruin
any constitution. He is now dead
as are many other men, because he
INDUCED in the falsest kind of all
economy-economy of time at the
expense of his stomach. Every
newspaper should impress upon its
readers the Importance of eating
slowly and wisely. Better eat one
half or one quarter as much and
,eat slowly, Better postpone eat
at all until there is an opportunity
to devote proper time to it.

1t is invariably the case that
men who know the least about
their own business and attend to it
in the poorest manner, know bet
ter how to run the government,
state, county and precinct affairs
than the fellows in office. That is
why such fellows are always found
to be such complete failures-they
waste all of their time loafing and
explaining how much better they
could run the office than the other
fellow. Such loafers never have a

never will have until they go to
