mcroS. The greatest export through
the local Fort Of entry was cattle.
and for the year 1929 the total
amounted to S278, SOC.
The total In all exports passing
through Brownsville for the year

Exports ON automobiles viii show
a great increase in 1880 due TO the
new Brennan and Corrigan branch

the way Of speeding automobiles, dis
ease germs or bio-chemical combina-
tions in the blood stream. The liza
bility to accidents increases with adj
vancing age. Persons have less agile
legs to get themselves out Of the paths
Of speeding vehicles and less active
bodily reactions to get their vital organs
out Of the paths of the disease germs.
To this extent FARO Agha can be dis
posed Of according to the laws Of

With no accidents. the mechanism Of
life simply wears out. There is some
relation between the rate of wear and
the activity of the nervous and gland
ular systems. The old man certainly
has not led the sort of life calculated
to prolong the wearing process. He
was in the Turkish army, which fought
Napoleon in Egypt and since then has
gone through the nerve-tearing ex-
perience of three other wars. All his
life ne has done the heaviest sort of
manual labor. And moreover his do
nestle struggles with twelve wives, one
after the other, must be considered
This is certainly the reverse of a quiet,
sheltered life with no great opportunity
for emotional experiences.
His body machine simply has refused
TO wear out. 1t is noteworthy that the
Balkan Peninsula thus for has fur
nished the most notable examples of
old age, chiefly among the peasant
women living in sheltered villages.
FARO Agha always has been city dwell
Ter, subject to all the nervous stresses

the classical cases of extreme old age
seem to be concentrated in that little
corner Of the world?
There is little likelihood that examina-
ton of the old gentleman himself will
throw much light on this problem. 1t
doubtless is extremely complicated with

Use Common Sense.

Extremely hot weather seems to stir
a great many people up to great physi-
cal activity, resulting in noise and an
noyance TO others and much danger
to themselves.
While exercise and perspiration have
their place in a heat wave, an even
more necessary ingredient is plain, old
fashioned common sense.
A senseless dashing to and fro in air
which is at the temperature of body
heat not only does no good, SO far as
relief from the heat goes, but actually
makes one warmer.
Excessive indulgence in the rapid
rhythms of radio music is not to be
advocated In short, anything which
tends to increase blood pressure or
warm the body is to be frowned upon.
The rules OF common sense call for
as little clothing as possible, absolute
cleanliness. plenty Of drinking water
and light eating.
The National Capital may well con-
graduate itself during the present hot
spell upon possessing the fine supply Of
wholesome, palatable water which it
enjoys.
Few, if any, of the great world CAPT.
tails can boast Of a better, if as good,
water supply. washington water" al
most invariably is commented upon
favorably by visitors.
One way for Washingtonians to show
their appreciation of their splendid
water is to use it properly, but never to
waste it. Proper use also means plac-
ing an adequate supply of it for pet
animals and also for those homeless
creatures which wander streets and al
lays. A pan of water in the back yard
may save some creatures life or prevent
it from going mad"
Hot-weather living should be temper
ate living, in the true sense of the term.
BY adhering to common sense Wash
ington will be able to exist more COM
fortably and more BEAUTIFULLY during
the hot spell which is Nationwide.

SHOOTING STARS.

Ancestral Wisdom.
Our ancestors, so scholars say,
Were won't to live in trees.
Where they might comfortably sway
With every passing breeze.
They wore no collars, stiff and hot;
They Stunned the fiery drink
In faith, it was a happy lot
To be missing link.
Where branches screened them from
the sky
And kept away the heat,
With wardrobes that were very shy,
They dwelt in bliss complete.
Now science answers to our call;
And yet I sometimes think
The very smartest of us all
