LONGEVITY IN HOT CLIMATES

He shows that the people who live
along the unhealthful coasts Of Cen
trail and South America survive the in
habitants of the higher and cooler alti
tudes of the interior. He shows also
that the Hindus, who often reach
puberty as early as nine years, live
to a surprising old age. The inhabi
tants of the southern countries OF
Europe are found to live much longer
than those of the more northern lati
tude.
To illustrate, in England IN a popu
lation Of Z 10000 there are but lac
c~entenarians, while in Spain, with
a population of but s 1000, 900, there
are 401 centenarians. The probabih
ties are that the great mortality founo
In southern ATTITUDES is found in the
cities. and is therefore not so much
the fault of the climate as Of an In
difference to sanitary laws.

Tropical Races Are Shown to Be
Much Longer Lived.

Because In tropical countries more
decayed vegetable matter is found and
in consequence more miasma, the idea
has become popular that only vigorous
health and long life are likely in
northern ATTITUDES where frost now
and then asserts itself. The fact that
humanity natures much earlier in
tropical climes seem to warrant the
conclusion that 1t must necessarily
perish much earlier. DR.. Luigi Sam
bon Of Rome attempts to put the pop
ular impression to sleep by an elab.
crate exhibition of statistics.
He doesn't contend that the warm.
est climate Is the most suitable to a
man. under the conditions Of modern
civilization, but he demonstrates Wig
orously against the idea that a cold
and variable climate is the most con.
ducive to the physical and intel
lectual improvement of The human
ace While northern climates may
produce stalwart frames, statistics
show that they do not conduce to lon
gevity, In proof of his position the
doctor cites the fact that the average
Arab outlives the average EsQuimau
by not less than 25 years.

rushed from the room, with q perfect
howl Of cheers following him. 1t was
his last appearance in politics.
The term political boss" images to
most people a s~toutly-built man with a
plug hat and a large diamond, who
smokes long black cigars and rules
his ward or district with a rod of iron.
Sometimes he is represented as a man
with a heart bursting with sympathy
for the poor, who squeezes the rich
citizen to help out the constituents
whose votes he harvests on election
day. He is generally typifed as elo-
Quently profane, and s~tory-writers de-
light to set him down invariably as Of
Irish birth.
AS a matter of fact, however, there
are just as many different bosses" as
there are nationalities in the large
cities, for a boss" is simply a leader
for the time being, and that may be
for a few months. a few years or
longer. And some Of the most sue
cessful Of all bosses" politically
speaking, have been Americans. The

of winning out against his r%ock-rooted
strength?
The boss in the cities, however,
especially the typical ward boss" is
often a man who may be evolved by
either accident or design. Sometimes
a man goes into the game to help a
friend out, or to satisfy a grudge, and
the glamor of the thing attracts him
and he stays in, to finally emerge as
a %full.blown leader" And some one
of the young fellows who go into poll,

years in the same ward, growing mp

AI They rise and fall, and one
makes room for another.
The fluctuations in politics
are as sudden and abrupt
as the changes in the stock mar
ket, and the boss Of last year
may be the plainest of plain citi-
gems the ensuing year. One thing
Is morally certain, there will never
be IN elimination of bosses" in
politics, because leaders are an
absolute necessity in every W.
ment, and prime ministers and
presidents are as surely political
"bosses" as are the ward politicians
who hold their wards in the hollow Of
their hands.

! remember a reformer who tried to
win out on the presidency of a ward
club against the boss" He tried
two years and was defeated, but the
third term he seemed to be sure Of
success. Nearly every one Of. the
members of the club promised him
aid, and Dugan, as l will call him, had
high hopes. The night of the election,
with 1879 members present, Dugan's
nan was put before the club amid a
storm of applause. His nomination
was seconded by at least five addi-
tional speeches, each a glowing eulogy
OF Danny Dugan's staunch qualities
and services to the party" Dugan sat
entranced with the praises which were
being handed out to him. The boss"
candidate, Casey, was nominated in a
half-dozen words and feebly seconded
by only one individual.
Dugan himself vas appointed one Of
the %tellers, and a roar of appreciation
shook the hall as the chairman an
'nounced his selection. Dugan went up
and down the aisles, and everybody

their ballots and tossed them into the
hat he carried with There's another

He had a ballot showed at him with
the injunction, Make it unanimous,
Danny; hurl in a vote for your own

other teller's hat and sat down in the
sevenths heaven of anticipation. The
counting was finished in a few min

way Of putting things. But he could
neither be wheedled nor intimidated.
The mere fact that he had promised
the support Of his delegates In a con-.
vention TO a certain candidate did not
determine that he would support that
candidate at the polls on election. But
just 80 far as his word went, that
promise was iron.clad and i~rrevocable.
Time was when a boss was to be
marked by his reputation for physical
prowess. But those days are in the
sere and yellow leaf. Strange to say,
even in the toughest of the tough"
wards, the leaders" are very seldom
now men who depend on their knock

boss" Of to-day aspires to be a
dresser" and a wit, not a "~slugger."

Do business or professional men enter

is to "get there" as he would express
1t; to accumulate a large roll of simo-
