SCIENCE ADDS
ToLIFE'S SPAN
OF 3 SCORE 10
Inurance Company Finds
Autos in Eighth Place
as Death Cause.
BY MAX STERN

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 15.--The
days Of man shall be three score and
ten, says the Bible.
But the Bible reckoned without
modern science, says Haley Fiske,
75-year-old head of the Metropoli-
tan Life Insurance Company.
''The expectancy of mans life has
been increased from forty-f1ve to
fifty-four by modern health agen-
cies," said the veteran financier,
here on visit. Or. Lee Frankel
of our welfare department, says that
at the present rate science is con-
quering disease this expectancy may
be increased to seventy-five, and
possibly 100."
Death Rate Cut
Between 1911 and 1926 the death
rate among the company's 10000 900
industrial policy holders has been
cut from 12.5 per 1000 to 8.8. The
Pacific coast made the biggest gains
over death last year with only ST.
per 1000 among the ge-earners of
the company's policy holders.
The improvement in industrial
mortality between 1911 and 1926
means saving of $3.50 lives in
1926" said Fiske. "It means an &C
cumulated saving of 417,628 lives
between these years and, in terms
OF dollars and cents, of ST. 100000"
Auto Deaths Increase
Heart disease leads the list of big
killers in America, said Fiske. Then
cancer, tuberculosis, "nephritis, apo
plexy, enteritis-and eighth on the
list-automobile accidents, these are
Americas biggest enemies. Automo-
bile accidents taking II per 100000
are on the increase. tuberculosis
has been cut 81 per cent since 1911.
typhoid 80 per cent and children's
diseases 81 per cent.
prohibition? I cannot see that
it has had any effect on the NOR
tally of men in America" Fiske
said. Deaths from alcoholism have
increased since prohibition, but we
cannot say that this is because of
prohibition"
F1Ske doesn't share the fear of
some that the conquest of disease
Will oVer-populate the earth.

Emerson said that in even the
simplest mar he met he could find
some element wherein he might be
that mans pupil.
This was the secret of the sage.
But so it is with every nation, too;
in some way it can teach us and
make us grow.
Oscar Wilde believed that no
country should go to war with
France, because it had written
perfect prose. And that, though it
seems fanciful, is the truth; we
must honor every nation to the last
point of tolerance if its civilization
is one of the precious stones with
which men have crowned the earth.
Let England be beyond attack
because of its perfect poetry, Ger
many because of its music, Russia
because of its novelists, Japan be-
cause of its art.
And China?-let us honor it with
the highest, because for three
thousand years it has cherished
gentleness, and wisdom, and peace.

Hindus had no such word as India,

adopted it as applying to all the

r~NCE upon a time I, Chuang-
liz tSe, dreamt I was a butterfly
y fluttering hither and thither
was conscious only of following
my fancies as a butterfly, and was
unconscious of my individuality as
a man. Suddenly awoke and there
I was, myself again. Now 1 do not
know whether I was then a man
dreaming T was a butterfly, or
whether am now a butterfly
dreaming I am a man."
Mencius (379-289 B. O. preferred
Confucius, and spent his life in de
votedly expounding and spreading
the masters philosophy; but there
is radical tinge in him which
marks him as man who dared to
do some things for himself.
He demanded universal education,
free trade, and single tax; he at
tackled trusts, profiteers, and mill
tarists, and said that there had
never been or would be righteous
war; and he gently suggested the
virtue of tryannicide.
EAVEN sees as the people
III see; Heaven hears as the
III people hear; the guilty
emperor exhausts the mandate of
Heaven. Killing a bad monarch is
no murder. I love life" said
Mencius, land I love righteousness
If cannot have both I choose
righteousness" And he wrote the
best epitaph for Lincoln:
when heaven is about to confer
a great office. on any man, it first
disciplines his mind with suffering,
and his bones and sinews with toll.
1t exposes him to want and sub
jects him to extreme poverty. 1t
confounds his undertakings. BY all
these methods it stimulates his
mind, hardens him, and supplies his
incompetencies."
There were other great names in
Chinese philosophy, like Chu-hsi,
the sceptic, and Yuan-chu, the
Epicurean; but we must here let
them be mere names.
Only one more philosopher shall
lure our pen, and this one has left
us, from far back in the Tang
dynasty, not a book, nor name,
but a series of paintings in which
he proposes to give a history OF
human thought.
The pictures show man in
search of a bull He finds its tracks,
follows them, sights it, captures it
and takes it home.
He leads it to his stable and
places it in stall. Then turning
as he leaves the stable, he finds
that the stall is empty; there is no
bull.
Truth, perhaps, is like the air
on Keats immortal urn
forever to be wooed and never to
be won.
-5E have stolen space from
IWl war so that we migbe speak
WI of philosophy and art. Per-
haps the civilization we have so
described is dead; or
perhaps it is but alternating quietly
