HUMANITY NOW LONGER LIVED.
Statistics Do Not Bear Out Statement
That Man Is Detsriorating.

A German scientist, DR.. Emil Konig,
has lately undertaken to prove that
in highly civilized countries man has
abused his constitutional strength,
and consequently is more susceptible
to disease than he was in earlier
times. There is obviously something
to be said for this averment, but, con.
sidered as a whole, the facts do not
bear it out
1t is unquestionably true that as
civilization advances human life be-
comes more complex, and the pres
sure upon a mans physical resources
tends to become more intense. II is
also true that certain forms of disease,
such, for instance, as cancer and heart
weakness. appear to be more preva-
lent than they were a century ago
we say appear" because only In a
comparatively recent period have the
statistics of mortality and its causes
been trustworthy and exhaustive.
The official records of Geneva, which
have been kept carefully for a long
period, prove that the average dura-
ton of human life is materially great
er than it was $50 or 100 years ago.
Not only the average length of human
existence, but the retention of physical
and intellectual vigor, or what is
called the prime of life, tends to be
prolonged. The age limit of useful
ness has in practice been pushed for
ward.
The fruitful activity of men over so,
and even 20, years of age is a phe-
nomenon far more frequently observed
to-day than it was 100 years ago. Ma
poleon's career was over at 46; Won
Moltke's can scarcely be said to have
begun, so far as great achievements
were concerned, till he was nearly 10.
What is true of war is true of diplo-
macy, of law, of medicine, of every
field of work in which mental and
physical energy is Indispensable.
When, in a word, we examine impair
TALLY all the data, weighing accurate
ly all the evidence pro and con, we
seem justified in taking an optimistic
rather than DR.. Konig's pessimistic
view of the effect of civilization on the
bodily well-being and longevity OF
man.

Some East.pav superstitions.

In Armenia, fasts. both of necessity
and of choice, are very general and
strictly observed. The most common
length of time for abstinence from
food is seven days.
Throughout this long period the Ar
menians, imbued with religious fever,
partake of no food. Only in the case
of the young unmarried woman is
any concession allowed.
The young men, on the seventh day
of their fast, are allowed, by old and
sacred custom, to eat a little cake, free
ly mixed with salt.
= By this means dreams OF pure,
sparkling, fresh water will be certain
to visit the young man.
A strange superstition is connected
with these visions. The dreamer will
see a maiden approach the stream,
and she will carry him jug, filled
to the brim with sparkling water.
The dream maiden will be the girl
whom Fate has decreed he shall
marry.
This strange superstition is found in
Armenia wherever the habit Of fast
ing is observed, and it is believed in
with the utmost faith by the unmar.
ried men.

In the Same Boat.

attendant at the Lumpton lunatic
asylum to the interested visitor, and
opened the door of the first cell.
Inside was man sitting on a three
legged stool, gazing vacantly at the
wall.
His is an unhappy story" said the
attendant. He was in love with a
girl, but she married another man,
and he lost his reason from grief"
They stole out softly. closing the
door behind them, and proceeded to
the next inmate.
This cell was thickly padded, and
the man within was stark, staring
mad.
Who is this?" inquired the visitor.
This" repeated the attendant.
This is the other man!"-Tatler.

He Worked for Il.

Some years ago there lived in Ar.
kansas a man named Reynolds who
owned a narrow gauge railroad from
Malvern Junction to Hot Springs. 1t
was partly due to the fact that he
had put by neat little fortune, and
partly to his habit of wearing an enor-
nous diamond shirt stud that he
had won the nickname of Diamond
joe"
It was Diamond Jce's boast that no
one had ever stolen ride on his
little 25-mile road; and, not content
with telling this to his friends, he Of
fered a reward of $100 and suit
of clothes to the man who could do it,.
One clear moonlight night man
came into his office, dripping from
head to foot
'Is this Mr.. Reynolds?" he asked.
"Yes," replied the owner of the mar
row gauge. involuntarily glancing out
to see if it was raining.
well, I've come for that suit of
clothes and the $100. I've beat my
way on your road, Mr.. Reynolds, in

For the Hostess.

If making the coffee at the table
remember there is right and wrong
way of making and serving coffee.
Have the coffee machine and tea ket-
tie on the table. Both should be placed
on the tray at the foot of the table be-
fore the hostess, the tea kettle at the
head of the plate and the coffee pot
at the right of the plate. Fill tho Ia.
der part of the coffee pot with boiling
water put the necessary amount OF
coffee in the glass top and properly
adjust it. Light the alcohol burner he.

for making this by electricity, though
the above method is more in use.
Serve the coffee black with miniature
pitchers filled With cream topped with
whipped cream.

FISHERMAN ACTIVE AT g.
Capt. Bracket Won Fame as the De.
signer Of the Dory.

The Swampscott has again come in.
to to the limelight because Of the fact
that the design has been favored by
the United States navy to replace
some of the present designs in small
boats, says the Boston Post
Capt. Bracket, the original designer
Of the dory, is sti:l hale and hearty,
though he is 8 s years old, and he 6e-
votes almost as much attention to fish
ing as ever.
In fair weather he usually leads the
feet of shore fishers who put off from
Kings beach every morning. He still
retains his skill and among the young
er fishermen there is always a pleas
ant rivalry to see who can get as many
fish as Capt. Bracket
Fffty-six years ago Capt Bracket,
then a young man of 80, had built from
his own designs the dory which has
since made Swampscott famous.
The dory then in use was the "lap-
streak" boat floating low, hard
boat to row, slow sailer and with a
strong inclination to turn turtle"
without warning. Frequent capsizing
and the slowness in getting home after
having a good catch led to his desire
for safe and better sailing dory.
Always on the lookout for a dory
built on new lines, he came across one
down on the cape" and from it he got
his ideas.
After drawing his plans he met with
an unexpected ditficulty-he found no
one cared to build such a freak"
craft, but finally James Knowlton said
he would try it.
The frame having been set up and
partly planked, it was seen that the
new craft had rather narrow bottom
and very round bilges, which was
enough in the fishermen's eyes to
stamp her as a failure. Even when
finished and the good lines were seen,
very few but who agreed that the new
boat was in no way equal to the lap
streak"
However, Capt. Bracket had conf.
dence in his boat and she was entered
in all the races and made good.

Another action having the same eff.
feet as the above is: With the pres,

right side of the abdomen, passing
around beneath the stomach. and ter.

circular stroking may be continued for
several minutes. Follow this move,
ment with the pressure exercise under
the short ribs. The ends Of the fingers
are applied from below, and strong
| pressure made with a tremulous mo.
ton. This exercise excites muscular
and nervous action in the organs

rhe second exercise is one taken
while occupying a kneeling position.

The knees are wide apart, and the

How few women have proper diges-
tion? One great cause &C sluggish di,
gestion is the imperfect removal both
of waste and of residual.
Since motion of the organs Is a nee
essary part of their function, no res
toration Of digestive power is possible
that does not also include the restora-
tion of this mechanical or muscular
property.
Many motions may be given to ones
digestive organs suited to different
constitutions, conditions OF disease,
development of the region, strength of
the individual, etc. The following ex-
ercises have been carefully selected,
which, If not entirely applicable for a
given case, may prove suggestive of
some other that may act more to the
purpose.
The first exercise is given in a
standing position, the body slightly
bent forward, with corsets and all
ught-itting clothes removed. The ac-
ton is, the extended hands are made
to strike the frontal regions of the
body. striking alternately with each
hand with such force and speed as 20
produce no unpleasant sensations.
II there be a point where pain is
felt, the acllon, at each successive ex.
ercise, should for period be given to
surrounding parts, approaching the
tender part gradually until the pain
disappears.
Inc above may be continued until
the entire frontal region has been
traversed, and repeated as often as
one deems practical
A more vigorous treatment may be
given by using the doubled fist instead
OF the fiat hand in striking. i, However
it is better to begin by using the open
hand
This treatment is an unusually good
one to assist in promoting absorption,
or removing congestion.

togs for an aeronaut to wear. So far
we haven't given much thought to a
distinctive aerial costume, but it will
soon be time to decide upon some
thing. Cyclists had their appropriate
costume, autoists have theirs and now
that flying is about to become a popu-
lar sport real and prospective, aero
nauts are demanding that proper at
