HEALTH I'm OLD AGE.
insured by Moderation I'm Living
when One Is In the FulIness
of Youth.

Infancy and old age are frequently
referred to as analogous states. In
point of fact they are much more
nearly oppoSiteS. Infancy is the eN-
panding, rapidly developing period,
while old age is a time when the It's
sues shrink, as il were, TO accommo-
date the lessening vital forces. 1t
cannot be said that all persons reach
old age at 20, although by this time
the majority of people find it neces-
sary TO curtail their activities, says
Youths Companion.
The signals which indicate need
for tightening the load upon the vital
forces as old age comes on are usu-
ally unmistakable. There is a de-
creased capacity for work. The
heart-beats are weaker. the muscles
and joints less flexible. Acute dis
eases are more to be feared. 1t is
not uncommon for the aged to recov-
er from serious injuries and from
severe attacks of illness; but such re-
coveries are not the rule.
One of the important questions
connected with the hygiene of old
age relates TO the degree to which
one should modify ones previous hab-
fits of life. Ii may be said positively
that all sudden or directly rever-
sionary changes are to be Stunned.
For example. one who has always
walked as a daily habit would be un-
wise to give up the custom complete
ly because of having passed certain
birthday. In the same way il is sell
dom advisable to abandon even the
cares of business entirely, lest the
seeking for something else with
which TO fill the gap thus created
should be unsuccessful.
Extremes of all sorts are so many
dangers TO be avoided. A certain
elasticity of muscle. bone and blood
vessel is lacking, and as result the
system is untitled for sudden strain.
A strenuous life can no longer be
pursued with safety. Severe trials of
muscular and mental energy, even Sc
we're trials Of temper, are out of place.
Natures suggestions in regard to
food must be needed A simple, cas-
lily digested diet should be the rule.
To say that the aged require less
food than at former periods would
be unnecessary, only that dimin-
ished appetite in old persons is some
times regarded by them as serious
symptom, and one TO be struggled
against.
Not infrequently it is found advan-
tageous in later life to take food in
small amounts and at short inter
walls. IL will be observed, also, that a
lowered vitality calls for more sleep
as a means of preserving the bright
er qualities of the mind.
While heavy cares are properly
shifted from the shoulders of the
aged, it must be remembered that in
terest in life is largely maintained by
virtue of helpful attitude toward
others, and to insist that the aged
member of the household shall do
nothing is n mistaken kindness.
While the amount of work which
may be done is curtailed by advanced
age, instances are not lacking to
show that the quality of mental labor
performed is not necessarily lowered.

HOW HE WAS REDUCED.
by Circumstances Over which He
Had No Control, the Drummer
Was Forced TO Drum.

"You must have played some great
games of poker in your day." he said
TO the drummer who had been talking
about luck at cards, relates the Chi
cago Daily News.
"Yes, have" was the reply. "Yes,
sir. have had some great games"
How large bet did you ever make,
may ! ask?"
"One hundred thousand plunks."
"You don't mean it'll"
81 certainly do. Yes, sir; l sat in
game in Denver once and bet 100000
on my hand, and had only one pair
in it at that"
what an awful bluff! The others
laid down their hands, did they?"
"Oh, no! One of them called me.
He had full house, and of course
was beaten"
"And-and you lost $1oo,oOo!"
81 did. For the fraction of a second
a feeling of faintness stole over me,
and things looked why wazzy, but
then l pulled myself together and
reached into my vest pocket and
handed him the money with smile"
Great Scott" sighed the querist
as he mopped his brow. think of
losing that much money on a turn of
the cardsl / suppose that is why you
were forced to take to the road?"
"Well, no. The winner said that
such cheek as mine ought to De re-
warded, and he returned my money.
I'd have been all right only when I
got back to Chicago / put 5000, 900 with
it and bet the whole pile on horse
race and lost by a nose. That re-
duced my fortune to less than $4,000
900, and so / had to take up this
business to exc out my income. OF
course, it's sad case, and j feel my
position keenly, but with persever-
ance and integrity l hope to pun
through in time to be able to pay the
cook her wages again. Have you

PORTO RICANS
A 6 SERVANTS
I n H A w A I /
They Are Replacing me Chi
nese in Honolulu Households

XTOU may think neither servant
question nor servant girl need
trouble in that dolci ia niente
land. With an outdoor life possible
the year round, waters Astounding in
fish that one may eat raw just as well
as not, with the bread fruit tree, 20
different kinds of bananas, mangoes,
custard apples, pomegranates, ber-
ries, grape fruit, oranges, lines, pa
payas, guavas, all sorts of delicious
fruit, might not one get along with
out cook or chambermaid? No, not
in the twentieth century, even in
Hawaii.
Some establishments, and those not
pretentious ones, either, find at least
four house servants necessary. On
the plantation where 1 lived there
was Johnny, the cook, a clean, unctu-
Gus, stout Jap, who ruled over the
cookhouse with undisputed sway
(Johnny of blessed memory, he that
concocted supereXcellent banana fritz
tiers and indispensable taro cakes).
Then there was Tatsu, a wrinkled,
old, old, Jap. who swept and polished
and repaired; filed the vases with
fresh flowers, amused the children,
fed the chickens, made the butter,
attended to all the left-overs. Little
Sahto, too doll-like for her hard
work, washed two days in the week
and ironed three. Last, the elegant
student" Ben Nakadjo, who stopped
to the position of steward (sort of
second girD only for the time being;
served for no pay and for the fur
therance of his study of English,
without which he could not hope for
success when later he should enter
commercial life. But Ben's gentility
did not hinder him from doing his
work properly.
Which makes the better servant,
Jap or Chinaman, l am at a loss to
say. The Jap is intelligent, the Chi
naman wonderfully apt imitator;
the Jap has a great deal of manner,
the Chinaman is quiet and unob-
trusive; the Jap is tickle, changes
places often; the Chinaman is faith
full, likes to stay with a good mis-
tress. On the whole, / prefer John.
Lucky indeed is the mistress that
has a good Chinese servant, for there
is no better in the world-and no
worse is there than bad one, says
a coolie fresh from the fields. But
