HOW To LIVE
FOR A CENTURY I
Special Dispatch to The Call.

CHICAGO, March 24-For sudden
strong effort or severe trial, eat meat;
for long continued effort, for endurance.
eat cereals; after exhausting mental
labor, eat yolk of eggs; after exhausted
physical labor, drink infused tea: for
pure brain stimulant, drink coffee; for
paleness, eat lean meat and spinach; to
make gray brain matter. eat eggs,
beans and oats; for sound sleep, eat
onions and garlic.
BY following the above precepts laid
down to the National Promotion of
Health Club by DR.. J. B. S. King here
to-day, you will live to be 100 years
old. At any rate the doctor says So
The first thirty three years of mans
life Is fer growth" he declared, the
breast bone; which at the thirty-third
year Is composed of three bones, then
consolidates into one, ending the grow
ing period. The next thirty-three years
is for work. The remaining period is
for the enjoyment of the fruits of labor
Many people who get stout at their
fortieth year think they are in fine
shape. 1t is a mistaken idea. Stout
ness at 40 is sign of old age as much
as gray hair. When it is noticed, the
diet should be cut down one-third. The
ideal old age is to be lean, spare and
active. Old age, however, loves fat
while youth detests it.
"Oats for children and Indian corn
for adults is almost perfect food. Meat
is only food for severe effort. Too much
meat. however, causes bad temper. The
nearest approach to a perfect brain
stimulant is coffee"

New York and London.
Koretiyo Takashi, special Japanese
Financial Commissioner, said to-day
that the $3.50, ,000, 900 would suffice for
Japan's requirements for a year or a
year and a half, at the expiration of
which time, in his opinion, the war
would be over. Three New York banks
are concerned-Kuhn, Loeb & Co., the
National City Bank and the National
Bank of Commerce.
NJ. Takashi was Of the opinion that
despite the hitch in the negotiations.
Russia would very shortly obtain an
other loan in France. The Japanese
loan is expected to be issued next week.

ST PETERSBURG, March 25. 3:4o a.
m.-The Russian rear guard is now oc-
cupying line Of fairly strong natural
positions thirty-four miles south OF
Gunshu Pass. the center being the rail-
road village Of Sipinghai and the tanks
covering the roads on either side, which
apparently il is the intention to defend
long enough to force the Japanese to
show their hand. The Russians may.
however. have been outhanked, and
have no intention Of making a serious
stand. especially as all the correspond
ents continue to report runOrs OF wide
turning operations on both tanks, in
dicating a probable basis IN fact. The
correspondents believe resumption Of
hOstilities on a grand scale in improb-
able inside OF three months.
GUNSHU PASS, March "a, noon
The Russian retreat has now reached
the village Of Sipinghai, seventy-four
miles north Of Tie Pass, where it has
temporarily halted. The army has been
without rest for months and il is nat

POINT GAINED
BY REFOR MERS
Believed That People Will
Have Representatives OH
the Cars New Commission

ST. PETERSBURG, March 24.-In-
terror Minister Bouligan to-day re-
ceived delegation from the municipal
ity of Moscow which urged that dele
gates of the municipality should be
admitted to the representative confer
ence, announced in the imperial re-
script of March 8. that free discussions
affecting the work of the conference be
permitted In the press and that the
deliberations of the conference be held
in public. The interview lasted an
! hour.
Bouligan will receive a deputation
from the Moscow Zemstvo tomorrow.
The Liberals apparently have won
partial victory in the composition OF
the Bouligan committee to elaborate
the scheme for national representation
in the imperial rescript. Planting them
selves sQuarely on the demand for
chamber or parliament elected by uni
versal suffrage with control of the Dud-
get administration, they insisted tnat
committee of bureaucrats could not
be trusted to express the public Will,
and backed by the press they kept up
their agitation for the participation or
elected representatives. Powerful sup
port was also furnished py the Gems
tyos and the professional and educa-
tional bodies throughout Russia, which
flooded Minister Bouligan and the COM
mittee of Ministers with resolutions Of
the same tenor and purport.
The Liberals, if they could secure
control of the committee, would vote
proposition for the election of an
assembly which would pronounce for
constitution. The Government, how
ever, to prevent such contingency,
only yielded the admission into the
commission Of selected" not elected"
representatives.
The Governments programme un-
doubtedly is to restrict the body crea-
ted under the rescript to a chamber
composed of representatives of the
classes sitting in conjunction with the
Council of the Empire, but having only
a consulting voice in legislation, thus
preserving intact the principle of au-
tocracy.

PARIS. March 24.-Prospects Of
peace between Russia and Japan as
sumed a more definite and almost
tangible aspect to-day as the result OF
the announcement Of the resumption
Of negotiations for a Russian loan.
The effect of the first announcement
was TO stimulate the market, and par
ticularly Russian securities.
Coupled with the announcement of
the resumption Of loan negotiations
came a strong intimation from official
and diplomatic quarters that steps
looking toward peace had been defin-
itely taken by Russia The Foreign
Office declined TO confirm a report that
Trance was likely 70 be the interme-
diary; but diplomats who are actively
interested for the first time gave

had decided 70 seek peace.
Il was said in these quarters that
Russia would deal directly with Toxic

charge Of Russia's interests in Japan.

MAY PAY NO INDEMNITY.
Belief That Japan Will Not Insist on
Being Reimbursed.

LONDON, March 25.-The possibility
of arranging peace between Russia and
Japan and the financial contest be-
tween the two countries are attracting
greater attention for the moment than
the strategic departments in Manehu-
ria. Comparisons are drawn between
the respective status of the two ma
tions in the money market now and at
the beginning of the war.
The spectacle Of the Russian Minister
of Finance inviting newspaper editors
and correspondents to verify by per-
sonal inspection the national bullion
deposits, while Japan is negotiating an
enormous loan on better terms than
her previous small, tinlid issues, puts
the development Of the credit of the
two belligerents into vivid contrast,
and is greatly commented on.
The London papers express little
doubt that Russia viii obtain her loan
in France eventually, but on hard
terms. 1t is reported that the new
Japanese loan is already fully under
written, and that dealings have begun
at a substantial premium.
The Daily Telegraph this morning,
editorialiZIng on the statements of its
St Petersburg correspondent that En-
peror Nicholas has been reluctantly
persuaded of the necessity of conclud-
ing peace, but is inf1exibly determined
to pay no indemnity, says 1t has rea-
son to believe in the last resort Japan
would not insist on an indemnity If
she were absolutely guaranteed, by
Great Britain. either alone or in con-
junction with America, the permanent
enjoyment of the concessions she de-
mands as the price Of peace. The ed
itorial article further suggests that an
entente among Russia, Japan, Great
Britain and America would guarantee
the peace of the Far East for at least
one generation.
