Russia-the Russia untouched by for

Unexpectedly one finds here in the
wilds of Russia a coterie of refined,
charming people. The women intelli-

speaking four or five languages; and
many of them excellent musicians;
the men, mostly officers or titled dig

of position in Russia is connected
with the government. The bureauc-

DRY Of Prof. Metchnikoff that the phe-
nomena Of senility and old age is
due directly to the microbes of the
large intestines, which are continually
breaking down the higher cells Of our
structure. The only course is to fight

the theories of Pref. Metchnikoff are

little doubt that man was designed
to live to much greater age than

It Is q sad commentary upon our
scholarship and our civilization that
the average life Of q man today
should be somewhere between 80 and
So years, says What to Eat. With
all our scientific advance and. our
knowledge Of hygiene and sanitation,
we have cut down the life Of man
to nearly one-sixth since the days of
Abraham and Isaac. We have It on
good authority that Abraham lived
175 years and that Isaac died at the
ripe old age Of 100, being full of
years and of days" Jobs life was
full of trials, boils and vicissitudes,
and yet he was 100 years old when
he gave up the ghost. Prof. Eli
Metchnikoff of the Pasteur institute
has fixed the minimum limit of mans
life at lao years. Having lived a
natural and scientific life from birth,
indeed, man need not expect to shut
he on this mortal coil at 140 years.
At that time Of life he will merely
begin to feel himself full of days.
Prof. Metchnikoff shows that mans
vermiform appendix is moral dis
harmony. for whose useful existence
we must go back to herb-eating crea-
lures like the rabbit, in which it full
fills notable function in the diges-
ton of raw vegetable matter. In
man it is nothing but a deathtrap, one

THE slowness Of Russian methods and the

WANT SCHOOL BUILDINGS.
Brightwood Park Citizens Call OF
Commissioners

The COMMISSIONERS this afternoon grant
ed hearing to the members of the school
committee of the Brightwood Park Citizens
Association with reference to the associa-
tons request that a four-room school build
ing be erected in Brightwood Park at an
estimated cost of 10000. The Commission
ers declined to recommend this new build
ing in their estimates to Congress.
The committee from the association con-
sisted of w. Nick. Clayton, chairman;
Frank J. Metcalf, Raymond Cook, A. M
Condra and w. S. Torbert. Mr.. Clayton ar
gued that the neighboring schools OF
Petworth Takoma Park and Brightwood
are crowded now, and as the Brightwood
Park children have no school of their own
1t is essential to construct as soon as pos
sible school in Brightwood Park.
1t was pointed out that it is dangerous
to allow small children to go a long dis
lance to school when they have crowded
thoroughfares to traverse.
Although the recent notorety given our
section by the agitation over the poor car
service there has prevented some people
settling among us, our neghborhood is
growing and we need the school badly
said Mr. Metcalf.
The Commissioners promised to consider
the request.
