person permit himself to talk too
much any more than he would drink
too much? We all know when our
tongues are running away with US
and II We have any intelligence at

Why should we not keep tab on
ourselves as We grow old and re-
frain from telling the same story
over and over again7 The mere fact
that a story Is our favorite story Is
sufficient warning in itself to make
US shut our teeth on It when We are
tempted to relate It There are also
other warnings not to be mistaken,
the bored and lackluster eye, the per-
functory attention, the forced laugh.
All Of these are indications that the
listener has heard the story . thou
sand times before, and that II we

mariner class It Il time, In the slang
Of the day. to can that particular
narrative.
Another fault Of old age that We
should guard ourselves against is In
living In. the past, and reminiscing
about our own personal affairs. It
is cruel fact, but It is a fact, that
nobody on earth takes the slight
est interest in things that happened
to US forty years ago, or cares q
whoop about what we did at the Battle
Of Gettysburg, or how we nursed our
little Johnnie through the whooping
cough. Yet old people will maunder
on by the hour about their own in
consequential histories and then
wonder why nobody seems to care
to talk to them
But the greatest fault Of all that age
must guard against Is becoming
dictatorial and tyrannicaL Because
We arrive at the age Of seventy is
no sign that we are incarnate wisdom
and capable of deciding every problem
on earth. Very likely we have been
q fool during the whole time, yet
many people who have made failures
Of their own lives feel that Just be-
cause they are old they have a right
to impose their opinions and views
on all about them.
There Is really no reason why we
should dread age, or fear that we
should lose the interest Of our fellow
creatures Just because-we are old.
In reality. old people have far less
excuse for being bores than the
young have. Men and women of
seventy-five should be three times as
interesting as they were at twenty
five. They have seen the whole drama
Of live. They have lived. They arc
rich in knowledge and experience, and
they are the most fascinating of all
companies when they have kept them
selves free from the faults Of age.

men and women at whose feet we
love to sit. and whose visits are

and that We have to be little careful

who more than any other, is credited
with enabling the president to
weather the storms OF the last four
years. The carriage was escorted by
the survivors of the signers of the

basis OF the revolutionary scheme.
At the chamber of deputies Presi-

to the rostrum where the president of

The ceremony was extremely simple,
