Mrs. Larkin had a very good

BODY OFFERED TO COLLEGE.
Man Who Took Life at Anderson
Wanted to Aid Science.

Anderson, April I'll have
no relatives and my wish is that you
send my body to the medical college
at Atlanta were the words crudely
written in the stationery of a local
hotel which was found among the
personal effects of man who looked
to be between so and 60 years of age,
who committed suicide in a room at
hotel here during last night. No
name was signed to the note, but
several pay envelopes issued by the
American Spinning Company and the
Poe Manufacturing Company, Green
vile, and pass book from the Union
Savings Bank, of Augusta, bore the
name Of A. S. Waldon,
The coroner secured several state
ments, one from physician, who
stated that the man came to his
death from an overdose of laudanum,
and he decided that a formal inquest
was not necessary.
The college in Atlanta was noti-
fed, but if the body is not wanted,
it will be buried in Potter's field to-
morrow
Waldon came to the hotel We'd
nesday night and secured Room 81.
He paid in advance for the lodging
and did not register. Last night at
Z o'clock he called at the hotel and
asked for the same room again, pay
ing in advance. The clerk did not
require him to register, as several
persons were waiting at the desk.
The clerk says that the man drew
his coat close across his breast and
was shivering, giving the appearance
of being cold.
The man retired to his room, and
was not seen until the servants went
there at $50 o'clock this afternoon
to clean it up. The door was lock-
ed. A boy was pushed through the
transom and in a half clad condition
the man was lying dead across the
bed. The doctors said he had been
dead several hours: He had several
capsule boxes and two empty one
half ounce bottles of laudanum, all
of which were from we'll known
druggist in Greenville. He had lit
tie money in his pocket and his
clothes and general makeup indicate
that he had. lived a hard life, was
extremely poor, and that probably he
had been a dope fend for some time.

Foo Found Under Ground Nine Feet
Below Surface.

One of the workmen employed on
DR.. w. G. Mayes' new building. cor
ner of Main and Nance streets, while
working on the foundation Friday,
found a hen egg nine or ten feet be-
low the surface, just outside the
foundation at the street. corner. The
shell was sound and the egg was ap-
parently as fresh as if laid the day
before. How long it had lain there
is not known, but it must have been
at least thirty years, for the old
brick buildings that was torn down
to make room for the new one was
built that long ago, and the old
wooden building preceding that one
was there long before the war of
the COS. and was built over a gully
several feet deep that used to be in
that part of town. All these years
the egg had been protected from the
atmosphere. and therefore kept
sound. Observer.

A PrecociOus Child.

Two gentlemen were discussing the
subject of childhood. One of them
remarked: 1T has always seemed
strange to me that children should
be so long in learning to talk. For
months they are practically helpless
because they cannot express their
feelings"
Il am not so sure of that replied
the other. Il knew child that talk
ed when only two weeks old
"How was that?" asked his friend
somewhat astonished.
"Well, the two weeks old child OF
a friend of mine was sick. A physl-
clan was called in. He made an eX-
animation, and turning to the babe
asked:
my dear, can l do anything for
vou?" and the child answered-abso-
lutelv nothing. g.'-Boston Herald.

Four Per Cent.

Apropos of large earnings, the
manager of a brokerage house told
the following story about an old Ger
man who kept small retail store:
A credit man was trying to get a
line on the old merchant, and asked
what he made on his sales.
"Oh, I guess about 4. per cent
was the reply.
why" replied the credit man,
.'you could hardly get along on pro-
fits of 4 per cent. Just what do you
mean by that?'

NORMAL LIFE 100 YEARS.
Sir James Crichton-Browne Says Best
Work is Done After Forty.

Don't stop work at 70; do more of
it," remarked Sir Gilbert Parker a
few days ago. and Sir James Crich-
ton-Browne, an acknowledged au-
thority on longevity, agrees with Sir
Gilbert thoroughly.
If you want feeble and misera-
BILE old age. give up working. said
| Sir James, who, although born as
long ago as 1910, is one of the busi-
est men in the kingdom to-day. The
most vigorous period of human life
in it's entirety is obviously between
25 and 20 years of age,' he' added.
but to say that men above the lat
ter age are comparatively useless is
to 1v in the face of the biographical
dictionary. Much of the best work
of the world has been done by men
over 40, and we should by no means
stand where we are but be back in
the twilight ages if bereft of what
these men accom- pllSleu.
"Musical expression, like speech,
reaches it's acme in late middle lite.
But higher in the cerebral hierarchy
than speech or music centers are
others concerned in the manifestation
of purely intellectual powers, such
as reason and judgment, which come
to perfection late, and may long pre-
serve their integrity. A preponder-
ance of the work involving calm and
powerful reason is done by men from
55 to 70 years of age. Our judicial
system in this country has been built
up mainly by judges from 55 to IS
wears of age, and in almost all coun-
tries the most momentous affairs OF
State have been reserved for the de-
cision of men at this time of life.
And even memory, so often
treacherous in old age, may be pre-
served intact. Doctor Dollinger, when
70 years and cursed by insomnia,
learned by heart three books and the
odyssey in order that he might be
able to repeat them to himself in the
silent watches of the night. Henry
Dandolo. Gibbon tells us, was elected
Doge of Venice when "a, and lived
till 81, shining in mis- last years as
one of the most illustrious men of his
time.
"The way to make old age peevish
and repulsive is to rob it of the hopes
by which it is sustained and tran
quillized. Depend on it, the best anti
septic against senile decay is an ac-
tive interest in human affairs, and
those keep young longest who love
most. 1t is cogent argument against
celibacy and the limitation of fami-
lies that they deprive old age of those
vernal influences in which parents
renew their youth.
1--WE are justified in holding that,
given favorable conditions and bar
ring accidents, 100 years is the nor
NAL duration of mans life, the goal
which, if we guide our footsteps
Alright, an ever increasing number of
men and women should arrive
Sir James added that very often
old age was made feeble and decreplt
because of the maladies of early
life. All these maladies leave their
footprints behind them, and in aged
men were often found the tracks OF
measles or the marks of whooplng
cough.

ter, in those cases in which it was
prescribed. A. J. Crowell, NJ. D.,
Charlotte.
These few letters taken at random
show Enthusiastically the present trend
of medical science in regard to the
use of liquor in sickness.
THE REMEDY SUGGESTED.
In view of the facts in the case;
it is plain that some sort of remedy
is needed for the present drug store
LIQUOR trade. 1t must be admitted
that very few, if any, physicians VOL
unfairly prescribe much of the liquor
that is now bought at drug
stores. Much pressure is brought to
bear upon them by certain class of
patients, whereas if the doctors had
some good, concrete argument to fall
back on which would appeal to this
class of people, they could, without
causing offense, avoid doing what
their consciences decree is wrong.
In other words, we believe that
remedy for such conditions would
be more welcome to doctors than to
any one else.
For a simple, direct means of eff
fecting this end, it might be we'll to
add clause to our search and seizure
law requiring that druggists pre-
scription files be audited, say quar-
terly, and the average quantity of
alcoholic liquors prescribed per
patient be made part of public re-
port to the mayor of the town. When
once the public knows that in the
best medical practice, less than
tablespoonful of liquor per patient
treated is given annually, then the
week-kneed doctor will have some
thing to fall back on.-Warren H.
Booker in Charlotte Observer.
