News The Tsns.
He sn0rfs ana ne wheezes.
He trembles and sneezes.
He shivers and freezes,
And sticks by the crate.
He sends down to Gus's
For rye, and he fuses.
And inwardly cusses
His onery fate.
He grumbles and mutters.
He mumbles and suffers.
And constantly utters
Unprintable stun.
He spends his time signing,
And sobbing and crying,
And thinks he Is dying,
But not fast enough.
Wher he gets to choking
He has to stop smoking.
It's not time for joking.
And life 10 q frost.
There's none to befriend him.
Or sympathy lend him.
He knows that will end him
And that he IL lost.
His wife does not worry,
Or hurry or ecurry.
She knows she'll not bury
Him. and sheds no tear.
She knows he'll not leave her.
He's one gay decefver.

THE PRIMARY LAW.

The Statesman finds the primary law grevousy at fault
in that many republicans of Lincoln county voted the dem

vision.

least good the Statesman had for hating

wouldn't support them if they the popular nominees

lonnavitY Calculations.

According to Button, the life of man
"can" last six times as long as 1t takes
him to become fully developed; &C
cording to Bacon and Huhand. eight
times as long. Now, since man is not
considered in the ana omical sense

fifth year Of age lis lie, according to
the last named two authorities,
could last 200 years But, as a mat
ter OF fact. on side the Bible, there is
no record whatever OF such long lives.
Among the extraordinary cases of long
eyity on record and well attested is
that Of thu Englishman, Thomas Parr,
who lived happily at Shropshire to
the age of 1852 years. The celebrated
Harvey. who dieescted him after death,
found his body in excellent condition,
and stated that had it not been for
his intemreyance &c night have lived

United States for 1900 shows 1881
centeHarians, and that for 1910 1904
(males 1871 females 2,S39) These
figures have only a dubious value, ard
merely because the vanity Of some
old people causes them to claim their
age much higher than it really is,
but for the fact that the majority of
these centenarians are ignorant per
