Prairie dogs constantly set to work to

place to exercise their talent in, they
will gnaw into b, Ses or chests of draw

riment of the clothes therein contained.
In an inclosed prairie dog "town" they
have been known to mine until the su-
perlncumb bent earth collapsed and buried

dog, let loose in a small, gravel hoored

Philadelphia with one of the men of
her company sick. She applied to the

young man referred to was emploved

place, and as the young actor was NOT

considerably more than he did, and
when he attempted to pick her IN he

TO the task. His struggles caused the
audience to laugh, and that spoiled a

DURATION OF HUMAN LIFE

4 20
Hundred and Twenty-Five Year. GA
TN the average statistics Of human lil'
it has been found that woheI i've lon
ger thun men. The reason 1or lhat ap
pears To be simple.
Up to the age Of 20 to - tho man l.
undoubtedly younger and less develop
cd than the woman, hut in the next ~
or 30 years Of his li;o the man ages
much more rapidly, because apart from
the strain and hardship If rotcsslon'
the exposure to unhc%lth.ul climates
the disappointmcnts Of fortune, ne OIL
ten leads a life Of dissipation and eX-
cess which early putt its stamp upon
his forehead and turns bis hair gray be-
fore its time. The woman, on the other
hand, who has often more than her
share of anxieties has, 10 t from the
many accidents Of life, luC one serious
and inevitable danger, that II the per-
petuation Of her race which, safely
passed, renovates rather than ages ana
increases woman $ chance Of longev-
ity.
From the few facts that have ven
tured to put together we may deduce,
think, the following conclusions, which,
| trust, may be found of some intCrt-t
by those who desire to have a general
view Of the expectation Of life its real
duration and the possible CAUSES Of its
length and hrevity
First THAT, according to the best
of the last century, the eX.
IRENE limit of life might be l2J years |
under extraordinary and almost abnor-
NAL circumstances.
Second. THAT the anticipation Of life
is roughly five times TIE time that the /
organs Of the body-not counting tho
brain, which develops later-require to
attain their full and absolute maturity.
This, Of course, varies not only in races,
Jut in individuals, some developing
Early ana some much later, even in tho
;ame climate and in the same family.
Third That rarely, if ever, is that
ull duration achieved, owing to dis
'ase, food, heredity, bad habits, wear
nd tear and many other causes which
horten life.
Fourth. The slower the development
he longer may be tho duration of life.
Fifth.-lhat all human beings arc :
OF born with the capacity fer long lifo
ven under the most favorable circum.
-ances. AS the organism Of the human
eng Is more complex than that of tho
over animals, so his anticipation of
fe is far more variable.
Sixth. - That those circumstance, !,
Inch oonduce to longevity are IN. :
