AN OBJECT LESSON
In a Restaurant.


A physician puts the query: Have you
never noticed IN my large restaurant Mt
lunch or dinner time the large number Of
hearty, vigorous old men at the tables; men
whose ages run from 60 to 80 years; many
Of them bald and all perhaps gray but none
Of them feeble or senief
