pRENENrING OH AHE
PREVENTING OLD AGE

"A man is as old as he feels; &
rative diseases ere ON the increase
Nowadays children are living to be
older but adults don't live so long
Hearts, kidneys and arteries are de
generating. Why?
Physicians know that syphilis, alco
hol, tobacco and excessive eating are
causes of hardened arteries. 1t is
doubtful If with the possible excep
ton, perhaps, of tobacco) the above
causes of old age are more common
now than they were a century ago
Indeed, it would seem that appetites
are better controlled nowadays.
1t is possible that infants are being
reared whose normal life span is but
so years, instead of the biblical allot
ment of three score and ten. II
babies are being saved to live sc
years, who were formerly doomed to
die in infancy, a great gain has still
been made
The American man of affairs is a
strenuous animal. He works with an
energy which has excited the wonder
of the world. He plays as hard. He
eats fast. When he drinks, he's apt
to be after quick drug effect. He
has more nerves than muscle fiber
He worries. He is too busy to get
much exercise. A hot fire eats up the
coal and burns out the CRATES.
What can be done about it? One
after another commentator has ad
vised us to let up in the fast pace
that has been set. There is the rub
If we could let up there would be nc
occasion for concern. Like the man
ahold of the bears tail we need some
body to help us let go.
The remedy I have to offer is more
wholesome play. l said in one of the
early articles of this series that exer
else which isn't fun doesn't, as rule
do any good A man who enjoys golf
tennis, baseball, etc., will do more
good with less strain if he will take q
half hours play before he begins
work. His mind will act more quick
ly. His decisions will be more posi-
tive and more nearly correct He will
reduce the amount of time wasted in
gazing at the ceiling for answers
which ought to be ready to pop out
of his head.
Taking this prescription will re
quire nerve. The serious minded
who are growing old so fast, think
they are superior. They will make
you feel a twinge of shame because
you feel well. They will almost con
vince you that signs of an approach
ing breakdown were honorable scars
which prove answering and consci
entious devotion to work. If they
bluff you you'll be as commonplace az
they are. If they don't you can at
tend their funerals with pride an(
self satisfaction.

Pass the Ordinance.

At the next meeting of the common
council the ordinance for the eleven
o'clock closing of saloons will be up
for consideration, passage or rejec
ton. The ordinance should be adopt
ed by the unanimous vote of the
aldermen, as a matter of protection
to the respectable saloonkeepers, who
close their saloons at that hour, upon
whom odium is brought by the few
places in the city which are open all
night and every excise law in the
state statutes violated. The law
abiding saloonmen are in favor of the
passing of the ordinance, as far the
writer has been able to ascertain, and
for it's right enforcement when passed

New Rules For Assessing.

Hereafter all property must be assess
ed at full valuation. This was the order
handed to the assessors of Dodge County
who met at Juneau last Monday In
case the assessors fail to place the full
valuation Oh property the result will be
that man will be sent along to re-assess
the town and the re- assessment it Is fig
ured will cost the property owners in the
neighbOrhood of 500. All assessors must
start on the job today, May 1st. and p ace
a valuation on at least ten pieces Of pro-
perty and send the returns to Juneau
where it will be decided whether the as
SCISSOR is living up to his instructions or
not. This raise assessment does not sig
nifty that taxes will be. higher next year,
the valuation being increased will mean
a lower rate Of taxation. About the
only difference it will make is that
towns which are now bonded to the limit
will be enabled to issue more bonds if
they see fit. 1t will also cause the as
SCISSORS considerable trouble and work.
Just why this order went into effect is
not known but it has been ordered aud
the penalty set SO there is nothing to it
but for the assessors to follow instruc-
tiOns, SO far don't howl when the assess.
or raises the value Of your property In
stead of lowering the assessment as you
had expected Lake Representive.

MAY ERECT
FACTORY HERE
Fire Alarm Inventor Seeking En-
dOrsement For
Project.

Mr.. j. Briggs, inventor of an auto
matte fire alarm system especially
adapted for hotels and public build
ings, was in the city last week and
gave demonstration of his inven-
tion at the meeting of the city coun-
Gil Tuesday evening. The instrument,
which consists of a sensitive thermo-
stat which rings an electric bell
whenever the heat reaches a certain
temperature, drew considerable at
tention and interest. Mr.. Briggs has
asserted that this instrument will re-
duce the danger from fire eighty per-
cent. 1t would give better service
than an automatic sprinkler and the
cost would only be one-twentieth as
great. He stated that the invention
would soon be considered a necessity
in every large building and that be-
fore long thousands would be manu-
factured.
Mr.. Briggs may locate a factory
here and stock may be offered for
sale. This is chance for local
merchants to get busy. Such a pro-
position deserves investigation.
