TO KEEP YOUNG.
Lessen Your Food Continually as You
Grow Older.

GroW Olders
What man or woman, growing old,
would not give fortune for the re-
newal of youth? With a little care
they might have kept it for ten or q
dozen years longer, but its value was
not realized until too late, says DR.. Co
hen, the noted London specialist.
Up to the age of twentythree or
twenty-five in the case of men and
eighteen or twenty in women, the
framework of the body is being form
ed, and the diet should be generous.
After the thirtieth year has been pass
ed it is no longer necessary to eat to
make more tissues, but only to pre-
serve equilibrium of weight and
strength. Yet at that time eating Is a
pleasure highly appreciated. Therefore
most men and women eat too much,
and this is the time of life when in
discretions in diet produce disease with
especial frequency.
Do not eat heavy suppers.
Drink little or no alcohol.
Avoid rich meats and pastry.
Do not grow fat by eating too much.
Fat people seldom reach a good old
age. The youthful old man is lean.
Lessen your food continually as you
grow older.
Overeating produces all the diseases
that make one old.
Underfeeding shortens life
Just enough and trif1e over is the
ideal.

IN THE DEATH CHAIR.
How II Feels When the Killing Cur
rent Is Turned On.


He waited a second or an age. Then
suddenly it seemed as if he must leap
from the chair, his body was swelling
to some monstrous, impossible, inhu-
man shape; his muscles were stretch
ed, millions of hot and dreadful nee
dies were piercing and pricking him, a
stupendous roaring was in his ears,
then million colors-colors he had
never seen or imagined before, colors
no one had ever seen or imagined, col
ors beyond the range of the spectrum,
new, undiscovered, summoned by some
mysterious agency from distant cor
ners of the universe-played before his
eyes. Suddenly they were shattered
by a terrific explosion in his BRAIN
then darkness.
But no; there was still sensation. A
dull purple color slowly spread before
him, gradually grew lighter, expanded,
and with mighty pain he struggled,
groping his way in torture and tor
ment over fearful obstacles from some
far distance remote as black stars In
the cold abyss of the universe. He
struggled back to life, then an appaIl-
ing confusion, grasp of conscious
ness; he heard the ticking of the two
watches. Then through his brain there
slowly trickled a thread of thought
that squirmed and glowed like a white
hot wire.
A faint groan escaped the pale lips
below the black leather mask; tremor
ran through the form in the chair; there
Il relaxed and was still.
It's all over. The doctor, lifting his
smile and wiped the perspiration from
his face with handkerchief.-From

Balance"

An Artificial World.

The mingled feelings Of admiration
and skepticism with which we gazed
upon the stuffed animals in the toy
shops of our youth we still experience
in the society of many of the human
animals we meet later in life. Tie
more we admire the more do we mis-
trust, while there is nothing of which
we are more convinced than that ev-
erything is unreal, from the complex
ion of or friends to the genius of a
great wgiter-London Ladies' Field.

Absit Omenl

Absit omen MAY the omen be
away" Suppose a Roman sneezed, a
premonition of sudden death. Prompt
ly he murmured absit omen, a prayer
that the omen might pass away from
him. 1t was simple prophylactic
measure of much the same value as the
crossed fingers or the rap of the
knuckles on wood in our present day

Your Eyes and Your Stomach.

1t was matter Of surprise to Emer-
son, says the Health Record, that the
following little piece Of advice by De
Quincy should not have attracted more
attention: '"The depth and subtlety of
the eyes vary exceedingly with the
state of the stomach, and If young Ia
dies We're aware Of the magical trans
formation which can be wrought in
the depth and sweetness Of the eye by
a few weeks exercise I fancy we
should see the habits on this point al
tered greatly for the better"

A Real Distinction,

A young matron of West End avenue
Is the only one of her family who is
not in "Who's Who" her father being
a well known clergyman and her moth
er, brother and sister being more or
less celebrated writer's. One day her
sister was condoling with her on her
lack of distinction in this respect.
"Never mind, Belle" said the literary
sister, you may not be in Who's
Who,' but you're the only member of
the family who is in the telephone
book, and that costs real money!

Gaelic.

Gaelic is the language Of the high
landers of Scotland. The name belongs
also to the sister languages Of ireland
and the Isle of Man. but these have
other names more commonly applied to
them-lrish and ManX-and the term
Gaelic Is usually reserved for that
spoken in Scotland. The three Ian
guages were originally one and now
stand in much the same relation to
each other that broad Scotch does to
kings English.

MODERN FAIRYLAND.
Electricity More Potent Than Aladdin's
Famous Lamp.


Was Aladdin's lamp so very wonder
full? Today we touch a button when
a messenger is needed; we press an
other, and the room is flooded with
light. 1t is not recorded that Aladdin's
old brass implement was of any value
for Illuminating a dark room. Our
slaves of the lamp do not terrify us by
their horrid appearance. They are
placed afar off in home of their own
and are always ready to furnish us
with light and heat at any time Of the
day or night. Is not that simpler and
more direct than to have to carry an
ugly piece of brass about with us,
which when rubbed did not give what
was wanted, but merely brought the
servant?
AnG was the magic mirror so much
superior to the telephone? Who would
not prefer to talk with his friends to
merely seeing them dimly through a
clouded mirror? Truly the telephone
is one Of the most romantic devices
that has ever rewarded mans endeav-
ors. And yet the magic mirror, while
1t seems improbable, may lead to it,
but even then it would only supple
ment the telephone.
And in what way was the fairy boat
or coach superior to the electric launch
or automobile? True, the rider did not
know how or why it moved, but this
same advantage holds for many who
today use these very equipages. And
one can easily believe, that we are not
far from the true flying machine
