The Simple Life.

From the Chicago Journal
Doctors might as we'll cry out to the
ocean to stop rolling as to warn inhabi-
overdrinklng, overpleasuring themselves.
Heart disease last year killed more per-
sons in New York and Chicago than it
did in 1906. Physicians are excited by
this fact, which shows, they say, that the
race is rapidly wearing itself out, at least
in Chicago and New York. We live too
fast, work too hard, sleep and exercise
too little, eat too much rich food drink
too much liquor, smoke too much tobacco.
The result is that we strain our heart
muscles, which become fragile and give
way at the first serious test; and that is
the end of us. A return to the simple
life is the only chance we have to escape
premature DEATH
But it is useless to expect the average
city dweller to give heed to this counsel.
He has to work hard and long to keep
up with the procession, and he has to
keep up with the procession because his
education and long habit have made it
impossible for him to browse his life away
in the country. Most city men, If told
they would live longer in the rural dis
tricts would say that they preferred to
die sooner after a city life. At least they
feel they are alive while they are living.
Better twenty years of Europe than a
cycle in Cathay," sang the poet. Better
a few years in crowded existence in Chi
cago or New York, think myriads of
people of today, than greater length of
years lived in such way as not to
trouble the muscles of the heart

SCIENTISTS STUDY
THE HUMAN FACE
German Psychologist Pessimis-
tic Regarding Solution
FRENCHMAN OPPOSES VIEW
I'VE Are Better Than Ever" Says a
Member of the Academy and
Senator-Learned Men
Differ.
FRENCHMAN OPPOSES VIEW

Paris, January 4-'Is the human race
deteriorating?" is a question which has
been greatly occupying the attention of
the scientific world since 1t was first
mooted in Germany by the well-known
psychologist, DR.. Koenig.
This scientist is very pessimistic regard
ing the, present representatives of the
human race as the decaying residue of o.
once fine and beautiful creation. Man,
he says, is abusing his energies and u.s.
ing up his vital fire in excessive emo
tons and fatigues. He foresees the time
when the race will die out through sui
cides occasioned by physical suffering.
His views are, however, not shared by
all savants, and French physicians espe-
cially are mostly opposed to the Ger
man Doctors opinions.
DR.. Ellie Metchnikoff, the deputy di-
rector of the Pasteur institute, in an in
terview says: mo, we are not inferior
to the men who lived nearer to nature.
We are able to fight better than ever
against diseases. Longevity is increas-
ing.
DR.. Launelongue, professor at the Fac
ulty of Medicine, member of the Acad-
envy and senator, is also optimistic
as to the future of the race. He says:
adays than they used to be, it is be-
cause we have discovered and baptized
a large number of hitherto unknown
affections. But we were never better
than we are today"
DIR Henri Hubbard, physician to the
Neckar hospital and a member of the
Medical academy, considers that life Is
only abridged by ones imprudence, and
that the race has only itself to blame
if it is growing decrepit. DR.. Hubbard
adds that half our ailments are caused
by over-indulgence in meat.
Only DR.. Hamy, member of the Acad-
envy of Medicine, among leading French
physicians, shares the gloomy views of
DIR. Koenig. He says we of the present
generation are much smaller in build
than those of the past, and without 60
ing any further back, he adduces as an
alleged proof of this statement that no
one now living could wear the suits of
armor of Francis I, or Henri II. On
the other hand. he adds, our cranial
capacity is much greater than it used
to be-

night as well as all day it was a season
of delight for the youngsters. In front
of the fire place of the arch was rude

ting a ridgepole across and siding and
roofing it with big slabs of hemloek
bark.
The end toward the fire was open, and
a sled load of straw made the floor The
heat of the roaring hardwood fire in the
arch kept the hut warm. lantern or
two hung on the forward post for use
in gathering sap on dark nights.
Stock of Torches.
A stock of torches made of the SOFT
curly outer bark of birch trees was at
hand, and by touching one of these to
blazing log in the arch light was
made by which the condition of the sap
in the steaming kettles could be exam
ined. These torches burned with a clear
yellow flame. BY their light one could
see whether the sap was getting low in
either cauldron and whether a new chunk
of fat pork should be dropped in to keep
the sap from boiling over.
This boiling sap in the night was hun
CRY work for the youngsters as well as
for the others. There was always a
plentiful supply of bread, coffee, eggs and
sliced ham in the camp. Some tin plates,
a coffee pot and cups and a six quart tin
pail with a long handle of green birch
commonly used for bailng sap from one
kettle to the other, were the culinary
outfit
The coffee was prepared over a bed of
Goals raked from the arch, the ham was
broiled on a forked stick over the Goals,
the eggs were boiled by dipping some
boiling sap in the pail, putting in the
eggs and holding the pail partly immersed
in one of the bubbling cauldrons until
the eggs were cooked and the night re-
past was eaten with relish. Then the
youngsters usually fell asleep on the
straw with their feet toward the fire, in
true Injun fashion.
After the say had been boiled down to
a dark syrup IL was put in cans, usually
milk cans of from five to Is gallons
capacity, and taken on the OK sled to the
farm house for sugaring Off This syrup
was not any too clean looking. In it
were bits of twgs and of leaves from the
woods cinders from the fire and other
sediment.
1t was allowed to settle and was
strained. Then it was put into a big kettle
hung on the fireplace crane, and while
it was boiling the scum was removed

OF the early part of the run some was
saved for choice syrup, some was further
boiled down and cast into cakes that
would stand year without dripping,
and some was taken off and stirred while
cooling until it was like fine quality
of light yellow sugar such as used to
be sold under the name of coffee sugar.
