DURATION OF HUMAN LIFE.

A Man Might Possibly Live to Re One
Hundred and Twenty-Five Years Old.
In the average statistics of human life
it has be"n found that women live Ion
ger than men. The reason for that APP
pears to be simple.
Up to the age of 20 to 25 tho man is
undoubtedly younger and less develop
ed than the woman, but in the ext 20
OF 30 years of his life the man ages
much more r..idly, because apart from
the strain IL hardship of profession,
the exposure to unhealthful climates,
the disappointments of fortune, he Of
ten leads a life of dissipation and ex-
cess which early puts its stamp upon
his forehead and turns his hair gray be-
fore its time. The woman, on the other
hand, who has often more than her
share of anxieties, has, apart from the
many accidents of life, but one serious
and inevitable danger, that of the per-
petuation of her race, which, safely
passed, renOvates rather than ages and
increases a woman's chance of longev-
ity.
From the few facts that I have ven
=
think, the following conclusions, which,
l trust, may be found of some interest
by those who desire to have general
view Of the expectation of life, it's real
duration and the possible causes of its
length and brevity.
First That according to the best
authorities of the last century, the ex-
treme limit of life might be 1875 years
under extraordinary and almost abnor-
NAL circumstances
Second.-That the anticipation of life
is roughly five times the time that the
organs of the body-not counting the
brain, which develops later-require to
attain their full and absolute maturity
This, of course varies not only in races,
but i'll individuals, some developing
early and some much later, even in the
same climate and in the same family.
1hird.-That rarely, if ever, is that
full duration achieved, owing 10 dis
ease, food, heredity, bad habits, wear
and tear and many other causes which
shorten life.
Fourth. 1.-THE slower the development
the longer may be the duration of life.
Fifth.-That all human beings are
not born with the capacity for long life
even under the most favorable circunl-
stances. AS the organism of the human
being is more complex than that of the
lower animals, so his anticipation of
life is far more variable.
Sixth. - That those circumstances
which conduce to longevity are un-
doubtedly late development, frugal hab-
it's moderation, exemption from vicissi-
tudes OF climate and extreme of heat or
cold, from mental worry and agitation,
temperature i'll eating and drinking,
with fair amount of brain work when
the brain is ready to undertake it.
We have all heard the we'll worn AK
iom attributed to the Psalmist that the
days of man are threescore and ten, "
but i'll Genesis vi, 3, will be found the
following passage, "Yet his days shall
be an hundred and twenty years. ~
This passage seems to have been over
looked, as l have rarely seen it quoted,
although curiously enough it exactly
corresponds to the theory that man
should attain five times the period of
reaching his maturity

FROsTBURG, MD, SATURDAY, FEBRUAR 2G,
The nisfEuring "1iske Up"

So long as We indulge in the barbar-
ism Of fO0tliGhts some strengthening of
the points Of the face may be ncedful.
1t is indeed an excellent thing when
deftly done and the material causes of
the effect entirely hidden, as they should
be. The clarity Of Il whittier tint to the
general tone Of the skin, the illumina-
ton Of eye and teeth by emphasizing
the brow and lashes and lips, the height
ening of the colOr--all these things can
be so done as to disguise the means by
which they are done. What is the
method actually pursued? White is laid
all over face and shoulders i'll thick
washes, like il Pierrot's mask, masses
of black pomadc load the eyebrows and
eyclashts, great gObs of red are put upon
tie ear lul and on ard around the
lips like ;. ,pdrason, deep pink i'll and
below the nustrils and on the eyelids
and masses Of black or purple beneath
the eyes, projecting to the temples in
arruwhCads
All these things are perfectly visible
to large part Of the audience and are
distiSuring even at a distance. With an
opera glass they are shocking. The OBJ
jects which are obtained are the Cog
Cling Of tie eyes, which can be thrown
about with the intensity of darky's,
and the display of the worries, which
produce similar effect to his. For pas
sion to show itself III such plastcred
faces, for waves Of emotion to spread
over them and for any refinement of
feeling to communicate itself to the au-
dlence are as impossible as it would be
to expect these things from the painted
canvas, They cannot cry, of course, nor
TOUCH nor be touched, without disaster.

here one night, with the water stream
ing from an eye into which her loaded
eyelashes had discharged themselves

Paving the Cook,

In old times to dine with a nobleman
cost more i'll tips to the servants than
club dinner. James Payn relates that
Lord Poor, a we'll named Irish peer, ex-
cused himself from dining with the
Duke of Ormond upon the ground that
he could not afford it. "If you will
give me the guinea have to pay your
cook (fancyD, l will come as often as
you choose to ask me, which vas ac-
cordingly done The duke, however, had
not the pluck to stop the practice. Lord
Taafe, a general officer in the Austrian
service did what he could He always
attended his guests to the door. When
they put their hands into their pockets,
he said: mo If you do give it, give it
to me. for it was l who paid for your
dinner " To Sir Timothy Waldo must
be given the credit of putting an end to
the monstrous practice. After dinner
with the Duke of Newcastle he put
crown into the cook hand 1t was re-
jected II do not take silver, sir. "
Very good, and l do not give gold. +"

and the day of walls to cooks was over

Lincoin's "SeIishness."

Mr. Lincoln once remarked to fellow
passenger on the old time mud wagon
coach on the corduroy road which ante
dated railroads that all men were
prompted by seltishness in doing good
or evil His fellow passenger was an
tagOnizing his position, when they were
passing over Il corduroy bridge that
spanned a slough. AS they crossed this
bridge and the mud wagon was shaking
like a Sucker with chills they espied
an old razorbacl1ed sow on the bank of
cause her pigs had got into the slough
and We're unable to get out and in dan
ger of drowning. AS the old coach be-
gan to climb the hillside Mr.. Lincoln
called out Driver, can't you stop Just
a moment:' The driver replied, ''If the
other teller don object" The "other
feller who was no less parsonage
than at that time Colonel E. d. Baker,
the gallant general who gave his life in
defense Of Old Glory at Ball Bluff-did
not "object, when Mr.. Lincoln jumped
out, ran back to the slough and began
to lift the little pigs out of the mud and
water and place them on the bank
When he returned, Colonel Baker re-
marked, "Now, Abe, where does selfish
ness come i'll on this. little episode?"
why, bless you soul, Ed, that was the
very essence of seltishness. l would
have had no peace of mind all day had

A Pertinent Question.

Old Aunt Dinah was colored wom-
an with remarkably strong voice who
would sing and cry ''glory' with such
vigOr as to be heard above all the rest
Of the congregation, but she was of an
unplcasantly saving disposition. 1t
was the custom at the missionary meet
ings which she attended to take up the
collection during the singing of the
hymn Ely abroad, thou mighty gos-
pei, III the midst of which Aunt Di-
nah always threw back her head, closed
her eyes and sang away at the top of
her lungs until the plate had been pass
ed. The collector, who was an old man
OF plain speech, observed this habit, and
one evening when he came to her seat
he Surveyed her rapt countenance and
then said bluntly, Look a-heah, Aunt
Dinah, what's de good Oh yo' a-sil.gin

servants are in proper shape to transact
the work. Thus it is that the kitchen
needs virtually to be a house within II
house and must have all the privaces of n
distinct establishment, yet be in such close
proximity to the main rooms as to be used
in conjunction with them at any moment.
A we'll planned kitchen and accessories
rcpletc with all the space, fittings and
communication have more to do with the
comfort and well being of the family than
all the rest of the house put together, and
the home that is so planned that the visit
or cannot smell what is coming on for
dinner may be said to be about as perfect
as it is possible to get it and will safely
pass muster. This good quality will atone
for many serious faults
The requisite points for perfect kitchen
are space and light. The light should
shine into every corner and always be as
surcd at the cooking range. A good range
is very important, as are large ovens, "a
