a better tonic than West Virginia mountain
air, he says; I've been drinking that brand
all my life." And he has lots of pep" left
in him at the end of one hundred and fifteen

keep working to keep young" Most people

says and imagine they're old, when they're

A MOTHER rule, dear reader is this: never
miss funeral. Giles A. Megagel of Peck
ville Pennsylvania, has attained his old age
by carefully eschewing liquor and tobacco,
and attending the movies regularly and all
funerals. For fear that something will come
up to prevent his attending his own, he has
composed a hymn called "All is Well" and
sung it into phonograph: it is to be repro
duced on that occasion. We shall not be at
this funeral, but there are some makers OF
phonograph records whose funerals we would
gladly attend.

the higher court with bill of excep-
3 tions that contained hundreds of
pages and took weeks to prepare. Ev.
cry possible objection was made dur
ing the trial and in each instance
where the defense lost exceptions
were taken. There were scores of
points on which court inclined to be
too technical might find reason to
overthrow the verdict of the Jury.
But the court took the broad ground
and looked at the whole case rather
than at tiny parts of it. 1t reviewed
the whole case and determined that
Mendenhall had had a fair and i'm
partial trial and had been convicted
justly. 1t refused to reverse the
Judgment of the lower court becuse no
error that was prejudicial to the de-
fendant that affected the verdict had
been committed. 1t deemed, from
the evidence, that the guilt of the de-
tendant was proved and therefore af-
firmed the verdict.
