sixty years beyond the time at which

His failing vigor was restored, his
enfeebled faculties renewed their vi

had been pronounced utterly hopeless
lived with. vigorous body and mental
faculties alert to the end of a century.
Cornaro's book, containing a minute
account of his method of living--a
work he finished at the age of ninety
tivated languages, and will ever be
esteemed classic and standard by
the medical profession and the dis
eliminating public.
He is the only one who, at the end
of a century, ever wrote-was ever able
to write-a statement, authoritative be-
cause based upon experience of the
means by which others with but little
effort on their part could enjoy the un.
speakable delights of long life OF
uninterrupted perfect health
Louis Cornaro selected the diet that
agreed with him, and kept to 1t. He
did not make the claim that every other
, human being should eat and drink ex-
that tastes and appetites and systems
differ.
What he did demand of all sensible
human beings who desire health was
EXTREME TEMPERANCE. Very little
food, very little drink, he found re-
stored him to health after he had been
declared an incurable invalid.
At the age of eighty eight he said:
"As years multiply I lessen the guam
tity of my food, and 1 may truly say
that never knew the world so beauti-
full until I reached old age Eating
but little, my appetite is normal, and
1 keenly enjoy bread, light broths, an
egg and all foodstuffs that are suited
to the old-bnt always in SMALL.

translator of Cornaros book, says: ITO

as long as he should. Sickness, pre-
mature old age and premature death
are so common that they have come to
be accepted as a necessary part of the
established order of things

DOUGHTY DISCOVERIES

A dispatch from Norfolk, Neb.. to
the newspapers of the country, last
October, read:
"A baseball batted into a cornfield
thirty-eight years ago by e. X. Ballan-
tyne, later seargeant-at-arms In the
United States Senate, was found near
here to-day when excavations were
being made for new building. This
was the first league baseball ever
bought for north Nebraska"
OF course, this story Is true. A good
companion for it may be expected
within the next few days. as follows:
"Thesfirst bullet fired at Armaged-
don by Theodore Roosevelt was found
near Tuscaloosa this morning. 1t is
the missile which split the solid
South.'
Or this:
"A satin slipper, small as nothing
ness and pink as the first flush of
dawn, was dragged out Of the Schuyl-
kill river, near Philadelphia, at II
O'Clock last night. 1t is the first slip
per ever kicked off an actress foot by
accident. The catastrophe befell Miss
Dolly Lightfoot, in the old Walnut
Street Theater two hours after the
battle of Manassas"
Or this:
"The base which MerSle did not
touch in that famous league game was
discovered in the bottom of an old
trunk in a deserted house in Harlem
this afternoon. 1t was learned that the
trunk belongs TO John McGraw The
Popular Magazine.

fowl, and lived on cereals, vegetables,
fruit and olive oil.
He drank a tablespoonful of olive
oil five times daily. and gave himself
an olive oil rub twice a day.
AS consequence all his physical
ills dropped away. Rheumatism, gout,
heart and liver weaknesses. sleepless-
ness, shortness of breath, fatigue, all
these symptoms vanished.
He gained in strength and vitality,
and enjoyed life with all the zest of a
normal youth.
Investigations proved that the man
passed the century mark, and that his
only physical ailment at the advanced
age was dimness of vision.
Without question 80 per cent. of the
people who believe they have reached
an age when mortal maladies must
naturally assail them and who are mid
dle-aged sufferers from combinations Of
diseases could be restored to vigor and
health would they follow such rules
of hygiene as this man followed.
The most illustrious example of this
kind in the worlds history was Louis
Cornaro, the celebrated Italian noble
Cornaro was sickly from his birth;
at forty the doctors pronounced him a
complete physical wreck. Their warn
ing that he was doomed to an early
death aroused him to q careful con-
sideration of his condition. He saw
wherein his manner of life was respon-
sible for that condition, and resolved
upon a radical change; he formulated
a few rules for his method of living,
which should at least insu that what
was left of his life should be lived to

Loyal Temperance Legion
Enjoys Social Meeting

Waynesboro, Pa, March 5.-Last
evening the session of the Loyal Tenn
perance Legion was devoted to a So
cial and lot Of work Of practical ma
ture and the program was novel to
the members.
There were seventy-five children
present and the regular business meet
Ing and literary exercises were omitted
to make room for the social and other
new features, which the children en-
ioyed heartily.
Mrs. w. L. Widdowson took sixteen
OF the larger girls into a vacant room
and began the practice of flag drill,
which will introduce the play that will
be given by the Loyal Legion the latter
part of April.
The remainder of the children were
divided into four groups and enter
tanned by Miss Clay Wertz, Mrs. Frank
Boerner, Mrs. L. II. Maxwell and Miss
Alice Good. The smaller children were
occupied in pasting anti-cigaret and
anti-saloon cartoons in palm leaf fans.
the purpose of the teachers being to
give these fans to the children's ward
of some hospital, where other chill
dren who are not L. T. L. members
may study these pictures and catch
somewhat the spirit of the wideawake
L. 7. l.. of Waynesboro. Refreshments
Of ice cream and cake were served to
the children.

PIGEONS HATCH CHICKEN

Marietta, Pa, March S. - In the
lofts of the Marietta Pigeon Farm a
pair of racing homers were given a
chicken egg three weeks ago, and they
brought forth chick yesterday. This
is the first time on record that a pair
of pigeons was known to hatch five
days over the time it requires to hatch
pigeon eggs. The cold weather froze
the chick, although 1t was perfectly
formed and hardy. The experiment
was tried many times, but the birds
would always leave their nest after
the seventeenth day, the time required
for pigeon eggs to hatch.
