How to Attain Old Ace.

OF the giving of recipes for longevi-
ty there is apparently no end. Every
man or woman who has reached out
far beyond the allotted threescore
years and ten is made the subject of
an entertaining argument to prove the
points Of this or that contender
Every abnormality in the shape Of
strength of arm, of back, of general
system, is used as an illustration of
the virtues of this or that system of
exercise or living 1t is the opinion of
a good many laymen that mankind
does entirely too much thinking ON the
subject of how to live to a ripe old age.
Less worry on this point might lead
to the desired result.
But there never will be less worry.
Even now the list of systems for pro.
longation of mans days is being aug
mented. The very latest suggestion
comes from physician of credit and
renOwn. He thinks that there is a
very great deal of benefit or of injury
in the wearing of certain kinds of
clothing.
According to this authority. the
wearing of flannel next the skin is
immensely injurious to the general run
of men and women. Cotton is king. il
his opinion. For summer wear he
suggests a calico shirt while balbrig
gan cotton is his idea of winter GOV
ering. The main point of his theory
is the necessity of wearing always the
same kind of material next the skin
whether this be of linen, cotton OF
wool.

John Clark Ridpath.

To the lon ones who loved him first and best
And knew his dear love at its tenderest
We seem akin-we simplest friends who knew
His fellowship of heart and spirit, too;
We who have known the happy summertide
OF his ingenious nature, glOrifed
With the inspiring smile that ever lit
The earnest face and kindly strength of it,
His presence, all commanding, as his thought
Into unconscious eloquence was wrought
Until the utterance became a spell.
What awed a spoken miracle,
Leaning to him, was native-was, in truth,
The earliest playmate of his lisping youth;
Likewise throughout life of toll and stress
1t was as laughter, health and happiness.
And so he played with it, joyed at its call,
Ran rioting with it, forgetting all
Delights of childhood and of age and fame,
A devotee of learning, still the same
In fancy even now we catch the glance
OF the rapt eye and radiant countenance,
As when his discourse, like woodland stream,
Flowed unsteady on from theme to theme.
The skies, the stars, the mountains and the sea
He worshiped as their high divinity,
Nor did his reterent spirit find one thing
On earth too lowly for his worshiping.
The weed, the rose, the wildwood or the plain,
The teeming harvest or the blighted grain,
All, all were fashioned beautiful and good;
AS the soul saw the senses understood
Thus broadly based his spacious faith and love
Unfolded all below as all above;
Nay, cen if overmuch he loved mankind,
He gave his loves vast largesse as designed.
Therefore in fondest, faithful service he
Wrought ever bravely for humanity,
Stood fist of heroes for the Right allied,
Foes even grieving when for them) he died.
This was the man we loved, are loving yet,
And still shall love while longing eyes are wet
With selfish tears that well were brushed away,
Remembering the smile of yesterday.
For, even as we knew him, smiling still,
Somewhere beyond all earthly ache or i'll
He waits, with the old welcome; just as when
We met him smiling we will meet again.

lie feels he's a man from his head to mis- feet;
He's no time to notice those other small lads
Except condescendingly call, "Hello, Tadsr'

His hands in his pockets, his hats on one side,
His head is thrown back with air Of high

He can feel the red stripes where the braces di'

And the old fashioned ways
And the joy of his first suspenders.

 It is understood that Mayor Drennen is favorably impressed with buying the lot as site for new school building. The city needs new high school be- cause the patronage has outgrown the present structure.
 A close friend of Mir. Drennen said yes- terday that while the mayor had made no public announcement of his intentions he expects to see the land bought and the corner stone of the new school building laid before his term of office expires. It is stated that Mir. Drennens S plan is for a handsome, roomy structure that will be an ornament to the city, as well as q great improvement to the public school system.

 side Are Welded to the Park Idea.

There may be some opposition to this scheme by residents of the southside. They seem intent upon having the proper ty Tor a park site A number of gentle- men have offered to subscribe liberal amounts toward its purchase. E. Steiner has offered to donate 5000 provided the park is named "Steiner Park" It is argued that the Southside Is without a park and that 1t being one of the prin- cipal residence sections of the city 1t should not be slighted.
 The Cox property covers an entire block. bounded by Nineteenth and Twen- tieth streets and Avenues G and F. There is a small building on the northwest corner, but it is the intention of MT Cox to secure this lot and sell the entire block to the city.
 In discussing the matter yesterday af- ternoon Mir Thompson, who has the prop ty in charge, said that M~. Cox did not expect one cent in cash. He is willing to take city per cent. twenty-year bonds. MT. Thompson will appear before a meet ing of the finance committee at an early data when the matter will be considered.
 One of the advantages of the property for a park pointed out by MT. Thompson is the beautiful shrubbery already grow ing on it. It requires several years to obtain such a growth.

The art of the goldsmith and the manu- fracture of jewelry, like other arts and trades, advances steadily and F. w. Bromberg, successor to E. Gluck, 107 North Twentieth street, keeps fully abreast of the times. There has been such an increase in Mir Bromberg's jewelry and watch making department that the employment of an additional high grade workman became a necessity. The ser vices of Ed. Herzog, so well and favor ably known in the watch making world, have been secured. and this expert work man, together with two capable watch makers already in the employ of the firm. will enable MT Bromberg to serve his customers with promptness and in the most thoroughly satisfactory man. nes.

His promise has joyed by the old reliable house of Gluck has been strictly adhered to and main tained He made a fine impression from the start and it was not long before he came to be regarded as a decided acqui- sition to the business life of this progress sive city
 gsie firm of Bromberg was established in Mobile as far back as 1890, and the house of Gluck dates from 1880. F. w. Bromberg, who was secretary-trea surer and stockholder in the Zadek Jewelry Co. took an active part in the management for fourteen years. This position he re- signed in order to come to Birmingham and make this his future home. Mir. Bromberg understands the economy of business; knows how to conduct his large trade with the smallest expense which en- ables him to sell at a closer margin of profit than any other firm In Alabama. And then, his frankness and honest methods count for great deal with the public. ka
 . With his excellent equipment-three of the most capable watch makers. engra- vers and jewellers in America-and his large and beautiful stocks, no wonder he Is meeting with marked success. He makes a speciality of resetting old family jewels in modern jewelry and this branch of his business Is growing to be consider able. tss
