ing about the time they got stewed
Suppose the Mrs. had to listen Ia
that story once a wk. for ~ cen
turys. / bet they would come a ever
ing dureing the last couple 100 yrs.
when she would forget her manners
and doze off with her mouth open.
Not only that but in the average
family we will say that the husband
and wife eats their supper away from
homo Is times per annum. Tina
leaves $50 days when the Mrs. has got
to plan for supper at home. Over
the present span of As yrs. Of married
life she has got TO plan 1870 sup
pers. Even that number gets to seem
pretty big after vile but suppose
the duration war heightened TO Us yrs.
or a total of 96,25o suppers. AT tn"
| last few 1000 suDpers 1t would ice
pretty near impossible to serve up
some kind Of a salad that they hadn't
never eat before.
AS far as a man Is concerned wa
can figure that man with ordinary
self respects begins shaveing when
they are Is yrs. old and shavcs every
day from then on. If he lives 10 yrs.
he shaves sonewheres around $1,000
times and every time he shayes why
his WHISPERS gets all the moro
tougher. IL he has got to live 800
yrs. that means 102.e30 times which
he must shave himself and / wouldn't
be surprised if during the last 10"
shaves some of the larger whisksrs,
would half to DO blasted out like 4
stump.
Further and more take man thai
| is IS yrs. old which statistics says is
about the age which the majority OF
the ready money he can lay hold of To
provide himself with nourishmen,S
enough to last the rest of the 10 yrs
now on the schedule. Where and TIL
he'll is he going to dig UP money for
| 265 yrs. supply of vermouth.
Or take for inst a chorus gal and
| the way it is now she can get a job
| up to the time she is about 80 ami
| that leaves her SO yrs. to live on what
| she may of saved OUT of meager sal
airy. Well if it gets to be 2sS-yrs. in
stead of 81 yrs. why l am afraid the
| won't be no danger of her g'orgein,s
herself at her last few meals.
X i: X X
THE same problems comes up in
= every walk of life and applys t.
men and women of all sexes The way
we are liveing now we are lucky IL
get by with 20 yrs. but if you add $50
yrs. to the span they will half to b4
| changes in our scheme of life and tt
| looks to me like now is the time t.
get ready for them. They viii haif
| to be changes made in the laws in re-
| CARDS to the legal age which peopl.,
| is allowed TO do certain things be
| cause if we was to try and live ?ep
| yrs. under the 30 VI. code why thu
last $50 yrs would be SO much alike
that everybody would gap themselve.s
| to death.
So in the 1st. place 1 suggest that
| boys and gals both be kept on a milk
diet till they are so and then weau
them and put them in rompers. Gals
! should ought to have their comeiug
out party when they are rs and be-
| fore that make them wear their hair
and skirts down. A boy could get his
| 1st long pants when he was 30 and
| vote when he was 76. On his 1915.
| birthday he would be eligible for
I president of the U. S.
y boy and gal under rs and IS resp.
! would half to get their parents con-
/ sent to get married. In the case Of
another war the age for the 1st draft
would be between SO and $50 They
would half to be child labor law
| preventing employment of boys AMI
gals under 30 yrs. old and Riddles ur-
der so would he kept off the stage
All persons of both sexes under eo
yrs. of age must be in their home br
8 P. NJ A person that worked 80
yrs. for one firm would be entitled To-
a-pension. IT would be VS.. the law
| for a boy under So yrs. old to caddy.
! The last named law is all ready IN
effect at Ardsley on the Hudson.
! That is some of the changes that
will half to come in force to make
| life bearable when 1t lasts 800 yrs.
and then Of course they's other things
| that won't half to be changed by law
but will adjust themself when the
| time comes.
| Like for inst. few yrs. from now
| when you walk along the ct. and you
! happen to see a limousine GLIDING
along with Mr.. Rockefeller setting ia
| the back seat you won't say TO your
| companion there goes old John J..
You will probably exclaim what a
| pretty baby.
