The Key That UnlOcks The Door To
Long Living,

The men of eighty-five and ninety
years of age are not the rotund, we'll
fed, but thin, spare men, who live on
slender diet. Be as careful as he
will, however, man past middle
age will occasionally eat too much OF
of some article of food not suited to
his constitution, causing indigestion
OF constipation and will need dose
of Chamberlain's Tablets to move his
bowels and invigorate his stomach
When this is done, there is no reason
why the average man should not live
to a ripe old Observation-Disclosures.

Hired Chief Priestess

The old Greeks were deft enough

desses. but highly illogical I'm the
treatment their super.beings received.
One of the best examples of this was
the custom Of hiring the PythIa, or
chief priestess Of the temple OF Apol-
10 at Delphi. At first beautiful Young
virgins. secured from the families of
peasants because of the belief that
such girls would be more pure in heart
than the wiser city sisters, were
placed In the position of chief
priestess.
Trouble arose when one of them
fell victim 10 the charms OF a young
chap from Thessaly. and after an ex.
tended love affair eloped with him.
To prevent the repetition Of this, the
Pythia thereafter were women Of
fifty or over. and far from good look.

Apollo might resent so hagglsh a col

haired priestesses. in the garb OF
young girls. on the theory that the

Lord Chesterfeld's letters TO his

PauPs letters to the Romans-these
are literature because of their sage

lofty admonition. But every letter
ever written is literature In one sense
In the sense that 1t reveals life.
Little. thrObbing bits of life taken
from one living human being and sent
to another living human being-that's
what letters are. That Is why they
are always interesting. That accounts
Tor the never-waning popularity of
the mail carrier. For, AS Douglas Jer-
rold said. there Is "a stray volume Of
real life In the daily packet of the
postman; eternal love and instant
payment"
Life blood Of human society courses
through letter, be It the packet of
gossip mother sends to her mar.
ried daughter. the diplomatic appeal
OF college boy for check from fa-
ther. long love letter between sweet
hearts, or just hastily scrawled note
Of friend to friend.

one thing under the sun that never
pals. that never clogs. that never
grows old or monotonous! "The

spirits sink too low. the best cordial

And a letter untimely delayed Is
as rust to the soldier."-Kansss CITY
