REv. BRUCE BROWN.

According to press reports from
Spokane, Wash. Rev. Bruce Brown,
former Mahaska county boy, now
pastor of the Dean avenue Christian
church of Spokane, scored the hit of
his life at the Mothers Day exercises
under the direction of the Young Wo-
mems Christian association on May
5, when he said among others things
in the course Of his address to the
young women: For the maligned
and mistreated tribe of mothers-in-
law ! want TO speak a good word to-
day Almost every mother must some
time in her life become mother-in-
law, and it VIM not be easy for you
to have your boy put another woman
first in his life. | lay upon the con-
science of the many young women
before me that they never become
jealous of the love that their sweet
hearts give to their mothers. 1t is
one OF the tragedies of life for a wo-
man, who has guided every step of
her boy, to see him place another
first in his affection. Some day you
may taste the bitterness Of that cup.
So you should love your mother-in-law
as you would be beloved"

said L. P. Love, commissioner for the
state operators association. There
was some dissatisfaction among the
miners at the time the agreement was
signed, but now that the scale has
been given test, they see that it is
the best one ever had. Work is be,
ing done more cheerfully. / believe
the output of coal in Iowa this year

rHE span OF HUMAN LIE.

A chapter concerning reported cen
tenarians is contained in the Census
Bureaus latest annual mortality sta
tistics report prepared by Chief Sta
tistician DR.. Cressy L. Wilbur, of the
division OF vital statistics.
The report affirms that it is undoub'
tedly true that the age of 100 years
is occasionally attained. 1t suggests
that II Is perhaps doubtful whether,
as shown by incontrovertible evidence,
the age Of Ito has ever been reached
or exceeded. This world, it is stated,
set the possible longevity of man or
the extreme span of human life
somewhere between 100 and 10 years.
DR.. Wilbur declares that 1t would
be a fact of vast interest to human
ity If 1t were true that human being
could live $50, or 140, or 100 years,
or even 120, or 10 years, as estab.
lished by exact observation. The ca.
pability of the bodily mechanism
would be tested and it might be infer
red that, with better hygiene, superior
engenics and proper methods of liy-
ing the extreme limit of life might
more frequently be attained, and that
after many generations the average
age of humanity might perhaps ap'
proximate to this limit.
