GROWS OLD GRACEFULLY.
Mrs. Sarah Trott Well and Hearty
at Nearly 1O1.

BALTIMORE, September 17.-Mrs Sa-
rah Trott can readily tell anybody
body how to grow old gracefully. She
was born on Eliotts Island. eastern shore
of Maryland, in 1907, and October will
be 1O1 years old. She is in full posses
sion of her faculties ready to entertain
agreeable company and has many friends.
She is ideally situated, living at Is North
Ann street, with her daughter Mrs. Isa-
bella Grillert, who has been widow for
seventeen years.
Mrs. Grillert owns handsome three
story house, with beautiful side yard
bright with grass and flowers, where, I'M
der shetering vines the mother spends
several hours every fair day, receiving her
friends and talking of the days of old.
Mrs. Trotts father was a farmer and
an eastern shore boat builder before Bal
timore built its ancient line of speedy
clipper ships. She remembers the
Robbs and other ship contractors who
built their vessels before the SewallS laid
the keel of the kennebec at Bath, Me.
Those were nice old days she said,
when everybody worked and was hap
py." She was never an idler. and now
only frets a little occasionally because
she is not doing something useful. In
her younge-' days she had her many cares
with a family of nine children, who are
all gone but the one daughter. Mrs.
Trott's few wants are not only readily
supplied but affectionately anticipated.
Her 'favorite beverage has been coffee,
which she has drunk all her life varied
occasionally only by a cup of tea. She
was approached with liberal offer for
the of her picture by a celebrated
liquor establishment. But she declined it,
saying that she would not choose what
might be prescribed for her as medicine
and that might be good or necessary for
her health, but she has no use for liquor
as a beverage. and has not cared to Sc
cure money or other reward for doing
simply what she thought to be best
Mrs. Trott is not forgetful of recent
events. as many old people are and fire.
quently reminds her visiting friends of
the number of days that have passed
since their previous visits. Mrs Trott' 8
philosophy is of the simplest: do not
overwork." "DO not worry BE con-
tent with the life that comes to YOU"
Love God as a privilege. and thy neigh
Dor. as every one ought" BE kind and
cheerful, and long life may come to YOU
