If you WOULD LIVE a CENTURY
You Would Have a Better Chance, II
Woman, Than a Man.
New York SUM-

Every woman, so the story goes,
carries with her signs which to the
inexperienced tell whether she will
live long. Here are some of the sup.
posed signs of longevity.
The eyes must be round and wide
rather than long and narrow, and if
they are brown or hazel life will be
longer than if they were black of
violet. The neck must be full and pill
lar-like, rather than slender. The
brow must be ample and slope back
slightly from an absolute perpendic
ular. The head must be wide be.
hind and over the ears. The mouth
must be full and well set. and the
chin square and firm. The nose mus
be wide and full through its whole
length and have open, easily dilating
nostrils. This indicates a good heart
and good lungs. If the orifice of the
ear is low, denoting a deeply seated
brain there is better chance of long
| life.
The woman who appears taller in
proportion when sitting down than
when standing has q good chance tc
live long II the body is long in pro-
portion to the limbs, the heart, lungs
and digestive organs are large. The
pulse should beat with full and normal
gfrOl<n / i'm he
large and well formed, the flesh Meth.
er too hard nor too soft. Those who
resemble their mothers may EXPECT
to live longest, and the first born is
longer lived than other children. For
example, a sister born ten years be
fore another sister is supposed to
have six years greater duration of
life.
It is well known that women live
longer than men, but so far there is
no satisfactory explanation of why
this is so. Out of a million people
225 women and only so men reach the
age of 100 years. Maybe II is be-
cause women get more sleep than
man, for the longer a person sleeps
the longer will life last. Nearly all
long-lived people have been great
sleepers. When NJ. de Lesseps was
on the ocean he would sleep 20 hours
at a stretch. Gladstone averaged 12
hours sleep a day. A man or wo-
man who would learn to sleep 1s
hours a day might live 200 years One
of the secrets of longevity, therefore.
is to take plenty of sleep. other rules
which the seeker after length Of days
should observe are these:
Sleep on the right side.
Keep the bedroom window open all
night
Don't take a cold tub in the morn
ing, but a bath the temperature of
the body.
Don't allow any pets in the living
room. They may carry disease germs.
Take daily exercise in the open air.
and live in the country, If not all the
year, at least FIVE or six months.
Occasionally change your occupa
tion.
Take frequent and short holidays.
Watch the three Ds-drinking wa 1
ter. dampness and drains.
Limit your ambitions.
Keep your temper
Worry less, work more ride less.
walk more; drink less. breathe more;
eat less, chew more; preach less
practice more.

Man Thrown on . Car for Eating Them
Receivers $500 Damages.
New BRUNswICk, Sept. 2o.-The jury
which heard the evidence in the suit OF
Alvie Peterson against the Middlesex and
Somerset Traction Company gave Peter
son verdict OF 800 last evening
Thus the company is held responsible for
the conduct Of its employees. The suit was
an unusual one. Peterson had been eating
peanuts in q car and declined to stop when
ordered by the conductor. The conductor,
James Crossen, thereupon threw him OF
the car and injured him. Peterson
instituted criminal proceedings. against
Crossen and the man was indicted. but at
his trial he was acquitted. Then Peterson
got after the company.
Supreme Court Justice Fort, in his charge
to the jury, plainly laid down the principles
Of the law in such cases. He said that a
carrying company enters into contract
with its passengers to use great care In
carrying them, and that II an unlawful
assault Is made by an employee the carrier
Is liable for the act.
The company may establish reasonable
rules which they may enforce on their cars.
by those rules unless they are posted in
the car or the passengers are notified OF
them. In the enforcement Of the rules
the company Is not permitted to use any
more force than necessary.
Crossen was enforcing rule that peanut
shells are not permitted on the floors OF
trolley cars. The jury was instructed to
decide whether Crossen in enforcing the
rule had used more force than was necessary.

ShefI1eId Scientific School to Make a Test
Of Twenty Regular Army Soldiers.


NEW HAVEN Conn, Sept 26.-On Mon
day squad of volunt GERS from the United
States Army at Washingt on will arrive in
this city to sub ject themselves to expert
ments by Prof. Russell II. Chittenden,
director Of the Sheffield Scientific School,
who will try to demonstrate that the Ameri-
can people eat too much. In discussing
the plan tonight Prof Chittenden said:
Through the courtesy Of Secretary
Root and Surgeon General OReily of the
army, the War Depart ment will cooperate
with the Sheffield laboratory in physiolog-
ical study of the minimum amount Of pro-
ted and albuminous food required for
the maintenance of health and st rength
under ordinary conditions of IL '. In car
rying out this purpose twenty men have
been detailed from the hospital corps Of
the army and will be in New Haven on
Monday under the charge of Lieut. Wal
lace Dewitt, Assist ant Surgeon in the United
States Army. and three non-commssioned
officers.
THE Scientific School has fitted up
house on Vanderbilt square. Temple and
Wall streets, where the men will be housed
experimentation for about nne
months.
-In this study there are no special theo-
ries involved and no special system of
detetics, but the object especially aimed
at is to ascertain experlmentaliy whether
physiological ecor omy In diet cannot be
practised with dist inct betterment to the
body and without loss Of strength and
vigor.
"There is apparently no question that
people ordinarily consume much more food
than there is any real necessity for and that
this excess of food is in the long run detri-
mental to health and defeats the very OBJ
jects aimed at. II is with view to gather
as many facts as possible on this subject
that the study is undertaken.
This investigation Is merely a continual
ton on large scale Of earlier observa ions
made In the Sheffield Scientific School last
year and bears directly upon the question
