HARD WoEK TO RETAIN YOUTH.
One Man F~cIares He Is Not Envious
of Ills Friends Success.

-s "The f led secret of youth, the
fountain of everlasting life and all
the nanaceas fer growing old without
looking old or feeling old are absurd
1ues by the side of the process used
by p.ofes :ional man of my acquaint-
ance, said a widely known lawyer Of
Philadelphia. THAT man looks like a
chap OF 80. acts, eats, drinks and en-
joys himself like one, but / know he's
past 60, and considerably past 1t at
that. He hasn't gray hair on his
head, his eye is bright, his skin clear,
his step elastic, and his voice strong.
WHAT'S the secret? Il has been an in
hexible habit with him from early
youth to retire at eight o'clock in the
evening and sleep until seven in the
morning. On rising he takes a cold
BATH. but many men do that. Oh,
that's all easy, you say? It's not 80
easy, after all. Try it and stick to 1t,
des1'te engagements at the theater,
business affairs left over from the day
and all the variety Of things of that
sort, and you'll find 1t about as hard
a task as you can place before your
SELL or course, there have been few
breaks In his lifetime habit. But In
the main he has adhered to it. Do /
recommend it? Well, hardly. It's
dry existence. I prefer this style of
life, and am willing to die young &C
cordrngly"
