A Polish Centenarian.

Chicago, March 22.--Adam Adam.
icek, Pole, has just celebrated his
ll2th birthday. His wife is still liv-
ing and is 81 years of age. Both are
almost totally blind, and yet their gen.
eral health otherwise is remarkably
good. Adamicek is believed to be the
Oldest man in Chicago, and as far as
known the Oldest in the United States.
Until recently, none but the parish
priest and his Polish neighbors knew
his remarkable story, although his
habitation had stood in the stretch of
muddy prairie near the railroads for
over thirty years.
Adamicek's abnormally large head.
his short stature and bent form gave
him brownie-like appearance. This
is heightened by surprising activity.
His long gray hair struggles out from
under a poked hat, and he wears a
thin gray beard. For the last twelve
years, ever since he passed the century
mark, Adamicek has remained within
his muddy cabin. His muscles are not
shrunken, nor his form shriveled. 1t
Is pitiful to see the uncertainty which
his blindness gives to his walk, but ne
steps firmly about the house and the
pallsaded enclosure. The old man is
an inveterate snufftaker, and has
smoked nearly all his life. He has not
been total abstainer from liquors.

large Insurance companies, women
seem to be shorter lived than men. A
set Of tables made up from statistics
extending over quarter Of a century
gives the following results:
"From birth to 10 years of age the
male death-rate is in excess of the fe-
male. From 10 years to forty the fe-
male death-rate Is In excess of the
male, while from 40 to so years of age
the rate is about the same in both
sexes.
Finally, from so to 60 there Ia a
greater percentage of deaths among
males than among females, while after
the 10th year the reverse is the case.
though the proportion of females living
at that age Is much less.
A few women have lived to be over
hundred years old, but where twenty
women die before so and one woman
reaches the age of 100 or more. twenty
men live to be 80.
Most insurance companies, as a rule.
regard men as better risks than wom-
en-. Men generally insure at an older
age, but their policies run longer"

The Children's Sleen.

A physician in an address before n
woman's club on the care Of children's
health, recently said that 1t Is criminal
to attempt to save a little money by
not giving every child in the family a
bed to himself. The physician also
emphasized the need of early sleep.
1T Is so easy" he said "to let ner-
vous child lose sleep in the early even
Ing, when he or she should be hard at
1t. When a physician prescribes some
important remedy that must be taken
and which is not pleasant a mother
feels that it is time we'll expended to
coax and wheedle, and even bride the
little one to swallow 1t. Spend Just as
much thought and effort in getting your
child to sleep every night, if he does
not fall off his chair at the evening
meal from drowsiness, as the normal
child should. Give up concerts, thea
tiers, parties, anything till you have
secured for the nervous, twitching boy
or girl the benign habit of sleep. Coax
him to his room, give him a quick
sponge bath, tuck him in his single bed
with light wool blanket over him be-
sides the sheet, and in a lowered light
sit by him and talk to him till he is
quieted. Tell him gentle, soothing
stories, nothing to excite his ina gina
ton, and when he is finally asleep,
have the room cool, dark and quiet
Don't let him try to sleep in a room
which has been sitting room all the
evening, without having 1t thoroughly
refilled with fresh outdoor air, which
may be accomplished by throwing win
dows wide open for fifteen minutes"

A Bay Collision.

San Francisco, March ga COLI
sion, fortunately unattended by loss of
life, occurred on the bay this afternoon
between the stern-wheeler Sunol, bound
for Napa. and the bark Olympic, in
ward bound from Philadelphia, while
the latter was beating up the harbor.
Although the Sunol's engine room was
wrecked, she only partly filled, and
was towed to the flats. Her passengers
and crew escaped by climbing over the
bows of the Olympic, after she crashed
into the steamer. The accident was
due to carelessness of the Sunol's cap
tain, who tried to cross the Olympic's
hOws
