From the New York Herald.
After living ninety-nine years and never
suffering from days illness, Henry Frank
is reported to have died while asleep in his
chair. 1t would be highly interesting to
learn upon what meats this man fed to
have become so strong and to have so long
outlasted his health advisers.
A study of his physical peculiarities would
form highly instructive text for scien-
titic paper before the Hundred Year Club.
In many respects, however, each man,
regarding his habits, qualification of appe-
tite and other individual peculiarities, is a
law unto himself. Back of 1t all is the
constitutional stamina to fit every varying
condition of environment. With him 1t is e
matter Of heredfty, the question Of the oak

With every individual there Is born a GER
tain amount of vital resistance to disease
which determines the life limit, be 1t long
or short. When this special vigor exists It
may be possible to have long life in spite of
failure to conform with the ordinary laws
Of health. Thus We hear Of an octogena-
