LAND OF OLD MEN.
where Centenarians Are as Thick
as Blaclbcrries and Hale
and Hearty.

saw lot Of queer things during my
wandering through Morocco, Algeria
and Tunis," said man who, according
to the Washington Star. recently re-
turned from long tour in the north of
Africa. but the queerest thing of all
was the multitude of centenarians. They
were as common as blackberries here in
August, and man or woman had to be
at least $50 to enjoy any sort of local
reputation.
1T is quaint and refreshing to step
aside for moment from the hustle of
| modern life and make acquaintance with
men whose fathers or grandfathers were
Barbary corsairs; to drop Into coffee
houses where the public story tellers
rivet the attention of crowded audience
and where the jars of Ali Baba are still
In common use; to frequent public
squares where snake charmers, barbaric
musicians and other story-book delights
are commonplace; to meet a Kadi rid
Ing to court on white mule; and to mix
with people who tell you stories of djinns
as If they were everyday occurrences.
"All this and more you can enjoy in
Morocco, Algeria and Tunis-thoLgh the
French are doing their best to spoil the
old-world charm of the last two coun-
tries. But of all the strange things I
saw there, the strangest were the old
people. There were so many of them.
and they are SO strenuous.
Every traveller in the "Barbary
states," as they used to be called, is i'm
pressed by this remarkable abundance
of centenarians. A gray-bearded old
man of 20, who is trying to sell curios to
a tourist for thrice their value, exclaims:
by the beard of the prophet, may my
grandfather die if what tell you is not
truel"
Looking at his gray beard you think
he is quite safe in calling down that curse
upon himself, but when you make in
quiries you find that he really has a
grandfather living, aged about ITO, and
that the old gentleman is still going
about doing business on market days.
Life is not wearing in Moslem Africa.
A man never does anything IN hurry
there Naturally, he does not even
grow old in hurry. When he is 70 he
is just beginning to get over the first
hot flush of youth; he is no longer
counted as one of the boys. But not I'M
til he is at least 80 does he expect peo-
pie to pay honor and reverence to him
as veteran, and even then he must
take back seat and listen deferentially
when the hale and hearty centenarians
approach.
The Arabs and Moors of the Barbary
states are strenuous only in their religi-
Gus exercises. The excessive zeal of
the various confraternities which give
vigor to the Moslem faith in that part
OF the world must be very wearing. But
even among these confraternities many
very old men may be found, who go
through the exhausting ritual just as
easily as mere boy of 30 or 40 can

FAMILY OF OPOSSUMS.
Interesting Bit of Observation by a
Naturalist in His Wood
land RambIes.

The first young oppossums l ever saw
were in their mothers pouch, which is
one of the most interesting stages of
their development, to my way of think
ing, writes Ernest Harold Baynes. in
Woman's Home Companion. l was eX-
aiming hollow tree IN forest in the
south, when discovered an old opOssum
curled up, apparently asleep. The sight
was not new one, and should proba-
bly, have left her to finish her nap had
not caught sight of little white head,
with long, pointed snout, and pair of
beady black eyes, which peered at me
from beneath the larger animal. This
was entirely another matter, SO | took
the old lady oppossum gently by the tail
and lifted her out of the tree. AS did
SO she growled angrily, and opened her
mouth in a horrible grin, displaying
mouthful of white teeth of many sorts
and sizes. But l knew this was done
chiefly for effect, for an opossum will
rarely bite unless you put your hand in
its mouth, or in some way you give it
good chance to get hold of you. Her
scaly, muscular tail squirmed in my
hand like snake, and before got her
quite to the ground l dropped her. Slight
as the fall, it killed her, apparently, for
there she lay, with lips drawn back and
curled up in the very attitude of death.
But she was only playing possum," and
I was not deceived Not young one
was in sight; even the one that had be-
trayed to me the presence of the family
had retired to the depths of his mothers
pouch So rolled her over, and putting
in my hand, drew out the babies one by
one. There were II of them, and when
| laid them on the grass they crawled
slowly about, opening their mouths to
yawn or giving vent to explosive little
squeaks, which sounded more like sup
pressed sneezing than anything else
can think of. Very soon they found their
mother, and began to climb upon her
body, holding to her long gray fur with
their hand-like paws. When / tried to
detach one little fellow it was amusing
to see the efforts he made to retain his
position. He grasped tuft of long hair
in each of his tiny fists, seized another
tuft in his mouth, and wound his flex-
ible tail firmly around another Left to
his own devices his mother need have
had no fear of his falling off,

JOHN E. DAILY RELIES UPON HYOMEI
Cures Colds. Coughs. Catarrh and Grip.
Just Breathe II.

HyOmei is natures own method for
curing catarrh, colds, coughs and dis
eases of the respiratory organs. 1t is
the only natural treatment for the
cure of these troubles.
Breathed through the neat pocket
inhaler that comes with every outfit,
the air that passes into the throat
and lungs, is identical with that on
the mountains. where it is laden with
| healing and health-giving balsamS. 1t
searches out and kills disease germs
in the most remote and minute air
cells of the head, throat and lungs.
it soothes and heals all irritation Of
the mucous membrane.
Hyomei is prescribed by physicians
generally. Many of them use it them
selves to break up a cold and prevent
pneumonia.
The complete Hyomei outfit con-
siSts OF neat inhaler, that is so small
and convenient that it can be carried
in the pocket or purse, a medicine
dropper and bottle Of Hyomei. This
costs but ST., and it will cure any
ordinary case of catarrh In chronic
and deep seated conditions, longer
use is necessary and extra bottles OF
HyOmei can be obtained for so cents
making it most economical treat
ment for this disease.
John E. DAILY has so much confidence
10 the power of HyOmei to cure ca
tarrh and other diseases of the throat
and lungs that he sells it under his
personal guarantee TO refund the
money to any purchaser in case it fails
to give satisfaction. He takes all
the risk himself. and Hyomei costs
you absolutely nothing unless it does
you good.
