HUNcH THAT WAS ALL RIGHT
Combination Convinced Racing Man
There Must Be Something Do
lna"-There Was.

DOC McDonough has returned to
Broadway after an absence Of more
than two months, says the New York
Press. He went into retreat on Fri
day, November 13, 1909. The DOC"
is great believer in lunches. When
he gets a hunch good and strong he
plays IL to the limit.
The DOC" never had stronger
hunch than on that November day.
That II was the thirteenth OF the
month and a Friday was a combina.
ton worthy Of anyone's notice, but
what was more significant to the Doc
was the fact that in one of the races
that day there were 13 horses entered
and one of the 13 had 13 letters in his
name.
There was nothing for a man TO do
under such circumstances but bet the
bank roll and then lend the family
Jewels to Mr.. Simpson or some other
friend. The Doc let every one IN on
the good thing and there was a play
on the 13 horse that day such as there
never was before.
And the hunch was cOrrec.. The
horse ran thirteenth.

INCREASE IN LIFE'S DURATION
Sanitary Science Has Done Much to
Proione the Stay OF Man
Upon the Earth.

National efficiency depends partly
on natural resources, partly on the
integrity Of social institutions, partly
on human vitality, and is a reaction
against the old fatalistic creed that
deaths inevitably occur at a constant
rate The new motto IL Pasteur's
1T Is within the power Of man to rid
himself Of everp parasitic disease"
Longevity varies In different timea
and places. The average length Of
life in Denmark and Sweden exceeds
80 years; in India II falls short OF 2S
In Europe II has increased in 35t
years from less than 20 to over st
years. In Massachusetts, in less than
half n century, II has increased ave
years. As longevity increases, NOR.
tality decreases.
The death rate IN the Registration
area of the United States is 1875 per
thousand; IN India Il 10 about a. per
thousand. In European cities It varies
from IS % 40 The ueath rate has
been decreasing during several cen
tnries. In the seventeenth and
eighteenth centuries II was 40 % so,
and during the pest periods rose a.
high as so. II is now 10. In Havana
the death rate after American occupa.
tion fell from over 80 to about 20.
The greatest reductions have been
effected among children The mortal
ity beyond the age Of so years has
remained stationary. Special dis
eases have decreased. such as tuber

Brltaln's Gilt OF Peace.
The indispensable foundation FOR

peace is the greatest of the blessings
that British rule has bestowed upon
India. The ravages of invaders. the
horrors OF civil war between

An occasional clash between Mo
aminedsns and Hindus, easily and
promptly Quelled, Is nowadays all
that disturbs the tranquility OF
a continent once the unceasina
prey OF strife and disorder. But be
meath the truce imposed by British
power the old hatreds and passions
are still straining. and It is curious
