LIFE IN THE MIDDLE AGES.
Ths Way In Sickness and Old Age
Was PitinbIe Indeed.


Concerning the life of poor people
during the middle ages a writer says:
''In those bygone days of feudal rule
the dweliers in the country were al
most invariably serfs, bound to the es-
tate on which they We're born and un-
der the absolute rule OF the owner.
They We're possibly better fed than at
the present day, for butter cheese and
eggs were plentiful, and the fertile soil
Of Italy supplied them with abundance
Of fruit and vegetables. The poor man
held his plot of ground by the tenure
of 50 many days in the year Of service
T. his lord. But in sickness or old age
| is case was very pitiable, and we have
curious proof of this in q letter writ
ten in 1865 by the mother Of Fillppo
StruZZi, at Florence. She Is speaking
OF some old people on her estate in the
country: 'Piero and Monna ella are
both alive and infirm. | have over

ing thought of the good lady, who was
pious and highly esteemed, a friend Of
the Medici, but it is firm resolution
In her own mind. A few months later
she writes to her son: Piero is still

go away and beg. 1t would be best, of
course, ii heaven Will take him. Ap-

Where the Sen DinnDnenrh.

A girl was recently overtaken and
drowned by the incoming tide on the
west coast of France 4 transplanted
Breton said of this fatality:
"Can you, who see your own tides
crawl in at the rate of ten feet or so
an hour, Imagine tides racing like wild
white horses up the fiat sands at the
rate of half a mile minute? The ex-
traordinary flatness of our Breton
coasts gives us these phenomenal tides.
The sea does not rise and fall. 1t ap-
pears and disappears. You have a vast
and fiat plain of sand. At set hour
the sea rushes in, white, wild, submerg-
ing this vast plain. At set hour an
unseen hand sucks back the waters

nothing Is visible but the plain of pale
sand again. Woe unto such as walk
on this desolate plain when the tide
begins to rise, for they must drown!
Nothing can save them. m."-Philadelphia

MARKS OF LONGEVITY.


Physical Indications That You May
study For Yourself.
Every person carries about with him
the physical indications of his longevi-
ty. A long lived person may be dis
tinguished from a short lived person
at sight. In many instances a physi-
clan may look at the hand of n patient
and tell whether he will live or die.
The primary conditions of longevity
are that the heart, lungs and digestive
organs as well as the brain should be
large. If these organs are large the
trunk will be long and the limbs COM
paratively short The person will ap-
pear tall in sitting and short in stand
ing. The hand will have long and
somewhat heavy palm and short fin
gers. The brain will be deeply seated,
as shown by the orifice of the ear be-
ing low. The blue hazel or brown ha-
eel eye, as showing an intermission of
temperament, is favorable indica-
ton. The nostrils being large, open
and free indicates large lungs. A
pinched and half closed nostril indi-
Gates small or weak lungs.
These are general points Of dlstinc-
ton from those of short lived tenden-
cies, but of course subject to the usual
individual exceptions. Still, it is well
acknowledged that the characteristics
noted are expressions Of inherent po-
tentiality, which have been proved on
the basis of abundant statistical evil
dence.-Medical Record.

Although difficult to believe, 1t is
nevertheless true that the death of
two half sisters, the daughters of the
same father, occurred 10 years apart.
The grandfather of the British minis
ter, Charles James Fox, Sir Stephen
Fox, married in 1864 and had daugh-
ter born to him in 1866 who died in
the course of the same year. He had
several other children who grew up
and married, but all of them died be-
fore the father and without issue. Sir
Stephen not wishing his large fortune
to fall into the hands Of distant rela-
tives, married again at very advanc-
ed age, and his youngest daughter was
born in 1927. She reached the age Of
ninety-eight years and died in 1926
that is, ITO years after the death Of her
oldest sister.

"Then you have been derelict as a

matter before?'
"The more think Of it the more be-

thing at the foot of n tree"
"Then let me call his lordship, and

saw by her attitude that she was even
ready to hear him say that she was the
woman he saw and to drag from his
pocket the bag of diamonds In corrob-
Grafton. He dared not put her to the
test
When his lordship criticised his ac-
ton insnot overhauling the unknown
woman, the detective could only swal
low his chagrin and beg to withdraw
from the case. Two hours later he was
packed and ready to go. AS he was
descending the stairs he encountered
her ladyship ascending. She gazed
straight into his eyes and held out her
hand. There was no bribe in her fin
gers-she knew the inspector to be
above that. He took the bag of dia-
monds from his pocket and passed it
over without word and then, raising
his hat to her, he kept on his way out
of doors. Two weeks later a London
paper said:
1--WE are glad to hear that her lady
ships diamonds have been restored to
her. 1t is limited that the person claim
ing the reward had the manners of the
gentleman, though in disguise"

Inspector Mcdonald to himself, as he

in force. exempts members of the yeo.
many from the ballot for the militia,
allows them to ride through toll bar

also relieves them from the tax on

were highly valued in 1901, when the
act was passed; but, as yeomen are
not now liable for the militia ballot,
as toll bars have been abolished and as

these favors have ceased to have any
