ALL SHOULD DIE
At AGE Of 65,
SAYS MEREDITH
English Novelist at 80De-
clareS That Long Life
Is a Burden.
Man OUTLINES His Use
fulneSS, He Thinks,
/. When Work Is Done.

8 LONDON, Feb. 29.-George Meredith
aAgrees with DR.. Osler-in the main. He
isets the chloroform age a little higher.
iSiXty-hve is his figure. Nor does he say
specifically that he would use chloro-
form at all. But it is his opinion that
tsixty-five is old enough. A man ought
80 die at three score and half a decade.
he says and If he does not he'll regret
The English authors angle of Obser-
sYation is different from the American
physicians. He discusses old age from
tshe old mans standpoint. DR.. Osler
took the view rather of sOCiety-Taised
stle question whether younger people
san afford to let the aged live.
1t viii be remembered that George
sAferedith celebrated his eightieth birth
sday anniversary recently, SO he ought
$40 know what he is talking about. He
went into the subject deeply in an in
tterview at his home at BoXhill the
.other day.
when a man lives to eighty" he
ssaid, 'it means one of two things-either
ne is greediIy tenacious Of life or so in
significant that the fates have passed
him by.
- Long Life Unfortunate.
1T is a misfortune 10 live 50 long. A
mans life ought TO end when ne is
ssixty lie must stop working then,
or the work he does afterward will be
-ef Inferior quality. People will praise
IL at tls time, but posterity will see its
weakness. When a man stops working
nature has finished with him, and when
lnature has finished with him he ought
20 so.
3 For myself, / shall write no moreno
more prose, at least-Only a little verse
The physical labor OF writing has
igroWn tiresOmc to me.
Il wish I had visited America when I
was younger. i had many invitations.
II suppose my American friends would
have given me a lot OF dinners, and
what / would have been compelled 10
seat would have helped me 10 do as 1
SHOULD have done-to have died at sixty

GLACIA CALAIS FRIEND,
REAL BARONESS, DEFENDED
Continued from First Page)

Continued from First Page)
The baroness has always been able
to support herself comfortably Senator
Blair says. In former years she was
more accustomed to entertaining than
now. OF late she has devoted herself
more to the care of her son, who IS
crippled, II was explained. Senator Blair
when pressed to make known the pres
ent whereabouts of the baroness said:
Presumed to Be Away.
''She is presumed to be away. I am
not saying that she is or is not ont Of
the city"
The son, BohTer Orendorf, is said 10
own a dairy farm below Alexandria.
Va, and it is believed by some that tie
barOacss is there.
Senator Blair disclaimed any krIowl-
edge of the truth of several cries
atiOat concerning the baroness We ster-
day. One of these was to the ee~ct
that, about twelve years ago, she had
been prominent in diplomatic circles
here through the. kindly offices of
Mustaph Bey, Turkish minister at that
time. An attache Of the German lega-
ton was said 10 have also been Of as
sistance, but it Is said that when Am
basador Won HolIeben reached Washing
ton as German envoy, he made light OF
the baroness claims and she has not
been in such favor from that time On
in the Diplomatic Corps.
In the meantime. the discovery Of Il,
baroness whereabouts IS being eagerly
awaited. Senator Blair says that as
soon as she is recovered she viii prob
ably have something to say, and thal
il viii be worth while.

Infection. then The annual loss on all
animals slaughtered for food in the
United states would be increased TO
s~4.I0s.4ss. The stock Of animals
on hand is also deprecated in value
because of tuberculosis. Assuming
that living t~uherenlous milch COWS
are annually deprecated TO the ex-
tent OF one-ienth Of what the loss
would be II they were slaughtered,
other cattle one-third. and hogs ne
half. the total annual depreciation
DR.. Mulvin shows must amount to
sS.04s.2I9. The annual loss from
decrease in mix production is esti-
mated At sl.1sa.oee. and there also
is some loss from impairment of
breeding qualities. Taking all these
items into account. the aggregate an
nual los because Of tuberculosis
among farm animals in The United
States is estimated at not less than
$4,000. 600.
The disease Is found principally
among cattle aud hogs. the latter he
ing inflicted principally from the
cattle. Il Is for this reason that the
main efforts to control the disease
are directed toward taking care of
the cattle. State authorities are
urged to apply the tubereulin test
and to compensate 10 some extent the
owners Of stock slaughtered order of
