KEEPING THE MIND YOUNG.
Premature Aging Of the Brain Often
Is Ones Own Fault.

Is Ons's Own Fault
Though Il mans body attains its full
growth before his twenty-fourth year
and probably earlier than that. the
growth of his mind depends on him
self He can continue adding to the
sum of his knowledge and his power
to reason until extreme old age if he
preserves his mental alertness. says
the New York Commercial AS long ms
he retains Il fair measure of that Gu
rosity about things which often makes
him Il nuisance when Il boy and is in
terested in new people. new sights,
new books and the thousand and one
things that are happening today his
mind continues to grow. But when a
man finds that change bores him and
limits himself to one narrow round
day after day he is really growing old
mentally as we'll as physically.
This premature aging of the brain
is often self induced. There is a class
of men who make Il fad of being unin-
tereSted in passing events. They will
read only one paper; they will sit only
in one chair; they will eat only ut one
table: they will vote only for one par
ty. the name of which is the same as
that of their forefathers. no matter
how much its principles may have
changed. Through posing at first they
become "set in their ways" and then
they are really old even though their
years scarcely number twoscOre, II
misfortune or unavoidable change in
his mode of life overtakes such q man
he is, like homeless cat miserable
for the rest of his days. Those who
stay young mentally and spiritually
keep in touch with new people and
especially with the young and cult
vate the habit Of looking with clear
eyes on passing events. For them in
their daily lives there are no laws of
the Modes and Persians. They may
wear themselves out. but they do not
rust away.

Who, unless he be a chemist, would
suppose that there exists anything in
common between the camphor Of the
orient and the turpentine obtained
from the pine tree IN the 0ccident?
The two substances have no superb
cial resemblance. their very odors be-
ing different. yet, chemically consid-
cred. there is very little difference be-
tween them. Turpentine Is composed
Of ten atoms Of carbon combined with
sixteen atoms Of hydrogen, and CAM
phor has the same components, with
the addition Of one atom Of oxygen.
The best natural camphor comes
from Formosa, and the outbreak Of
the Russian-Japanese war advanced
the price to such an extent that the
chemists OF the world were called upon
to contrive substitute. They soon
decided that it would be more practical
able to make an artificial camphor.
Knowing turpentine to be the sub
stance most nearly allied to it In chem.
icaI structure. a series Of experiments
on a very large scale was begun. A
detailed history Of these experiments
would Gil many volumes. Today from
q determined quantity Of turpentine

WHY OYSTERS?

Yes, why will You buy more oys-

Because oysters cost half as much
as meat, and people will buy them
for the home to reduce the high
cost OF living
Why buy your oysters OF City Fish
Market? The beds from which we
buy our supply produce the purest
and best favored oysters to be had.
Years OF experience has taught US
how and where to buy just this quail
ity OF oysters. Our facilities for
handling these oysters without per-
uniting them to become contamina-
ted in any way enable US to offer the
trade such stock as is not obtainable
through the average channel. Our
long experience in transportation
matters makes it possible for us to
offer you the most perfect service
that you can get, and this means
that your oysters lose the least pos
slble time between the beds and
