The following pointed remarks by
Messrs. Steinway & Sons are OF appeal
ing interest
The strength Of a name IS well
illustrated in the fact that when il is
known that a piano merchant in any
locality represents the SteiuWay piano,
his establishment at once has distinct
prestige. This is true not merely be
cause he has the agency for the most
noted piano in the world. but because it
has been a fixed policy that only dealers
of reputation and standing in their re-
spective localities shall he appointed
StelnWay representatives In other
words. il is the association OF a piano
Of worldwide fame with a merchant
who has won position and standing
III his particular locality. The com
bination OF the two makes the ware
room where the Steinway is displayed
the natural rendezvous for people OF
the highest musical culture.

To Prolong Average Age.

The United States Public Health
Service and the various health agen-
cies of this country are working to
prolong the average duration of life
In this they are obeying the desire
for existence which is the strongest
instinct Of mankind. Only small
proportion of the human race rounds
out its tour of duty on this earth.
Some people are born with good bodies
which they treat well. Barring acct
dents, they live a long time. Some
people are born with poor bodies
which they treat well. Barring acct
dents they can live to a ripe old age,
Some people are born with good
bodies which they treat badly and
some people are born with poor bod
les which they treat badly. They
don't last long.
l. i recorded that in Yorkshire in
1901, Henry Jenkins was born. He
died in 1870, cut off at the age Of
169. He remembered we'll the battle
of Flodden Field. This occurred in
1913. when he was u years of age.
The Register Of Chancery and other
courts show the administration tof
oaths to him 14O years prior to his
death. He gave deposition as witness
when he was i57. In his young man
hood, when he was little over 100, he
was a remarkable swimmer.
The term cold age" too frequently
is another name for the falling due of
the debts of youth. Over eating,
overwhelming, over-playing, over
working, these are drafts on the
bank of Nature which sooner or later
must be met. Sometimes the day of
reckoning can be put off a little bit,
but Dame Natire will not be wheedled
out of her claim.
The remarkable thing about Henry
Jenkins is the fact that he has left
behind him no rules of living which
would enable one to duplicate his feat.
In this he showed great self-repres-
sion. As a matter of fact there is no
royal road to old age and it is not
to be attained by a particular dietary
or regimen of life. Perhaps the
best rule may be expressed in one
word, "Noderation." Moderation in
food, moderation in drink, moderation
in the joys and worries Of life, mod
Grafton in work. moderation in recrea-
ton, equanimity Of mind, the soul and
the body. These make for long ten
ure of life.
