How to Keep Young

To carry youth into age, Orison SWEET
Marden in Success gives the following
advice:
Expect a good long. useful life.
Hold young thoughts persistently.
Simply refuse TO grow old by counting
your years or anticipating old age.
Refrain from all kinds of stimulants
and sedatives; they will shorten your
life.
One of the best preventives Of age
is enthusiasm and interest in affairs Of
the day.
Keep in the sunlight; nothing beau
tiful or sweet grows or ripens in the
darkness.
Avoid fear in all its varied forms Of
.expression; it is the greatest enemy
of the human race.
Nature is the great rejuvenator; her
spirit is ever young. Live with her;
study her; love her.
Avoid excesses Of all kinds; they are
injurious. The long life must be a
temperate, regular life.
Contemplate beauty in all its forms
and you will drive everything that is
ugly out of your life.
Keep mental cobwehs. dust, and
brain ashes brushed off by frequent
trips to the country. or ny travel.
Don't allow yourself TO think. on

WON HIM A FORTUNE.
How Genin Got Barnum to Advertise

How Genin Got Barnum TO Advertise
Him All over the Country.
When Jenny Lind. the great Swedish
singer, visited America in 1s4s she not
only won a fortune for herself, but
made two men wealthy as well. One
of them was Barnum, the Snowman.
1t was Barnum who brought her to
America. He ventured all that he
could raise in advertising the wonder
full woman, and his successful manage
ment of her tour in this country lifted
Barnum TO grand business success.
But there was another man who got
rich without having anything TO do
with the management Of the Jenny
Lind concert tour. 1t was Genin, the
New York halter. His name and busi-
ness were advertised by Barnum wher-
ever the Jenny Lind concerts were ad-
vertised. and it didn't cost Genin one
penny for all OF the advertising that
Barnum did for him.
There was no hall in New York big
enough to accommodate the crowds
which attended the first concert in this
up for the purpose, and the seats were
sold at auction. Now. Genin was an
unknown halter, although he was a
good one. He went to the auction sale
Of seats at Castle Garden and outbld
everybody. He ran up the price of the
first ticket until some Of his friends
thought he was going crazy and tried
to induce him TO desist. But GeniT
was not crazy by any means. He kept
on bidding until he finally got the frs
ticket for $3.50. He had outbid the rich
est men in New York.
The next day and every day after
ward for many months II was an
nounced that "Genin. the New YorE
halter. had paid S750 for the first Jen
ny Lind ticket"
And wherever Barnum advertised hii
concert he advertised that fact to show
what q great attraction he was touring
with. As a consequence Genin's hat
were in demand all over this country
and he became enormously rich.
