Defendant.
IN THE CIRCUIT COURT FOR
MONTGOMERY COUNTY, MD.
Holding Equity Court.
Equity No. 10000.
The object of this suit is to
obtain a divorce a viacatlo nodt1'i-
monii from the defendant, and
the Bill of Complaint states as
follows:
That the plaintiff is a citizen
of the United States, resident
of Montgomery County, and has
resided there for more than one
year continuously and uninter-
ruptedly Immediately preceding
the filing of this suit; that the
defendant is a nonresident of the
State of Maryland, residing to
the best of the plaintiffs knowl-
edge and belief at 400 Walnut
Street, Nutley, New Jersey; that
the plaintiff and defendant were
married at Easton, Pennsylvania
on July 10, 1881; that as a re-
suit of the marriage no children
were born; that on or about No
vember %, 1910 the defendant
willfully, finally and Intentionally
deserted and abandoned the plain
tiff and declared his intention to
live with her no longer; that the
desertion has continued uninter-
ruptedly for more than eighteen
months Immediately preceding the
filing of the Bill of Complaint,
was the defendants own delib--
crate and final act and is beyond
any reasonable hope or expecta-
ton of reconciliation; and that
the parties have not lived or CO.
habited as husband and wife since,
to wit, November %, 1910.
The plaintiff prays that she be
divorced viacuLo nlGtrtn'onla
from the defendant; and for such
other and further relief as to the
Court may seem proper.
It is, thereupon. this Bird day
of March, 1913, ordered by the

the object and substance OF said
Bill to be inserted in some news

defendant of the object and sub
stance of the said Bill and warn

1913 10y American wcckly Inc Britain Rights
~Y~HE old industrial dctum that a man who
has reached the age of 60 or 65 no longer
is useful and should be put on the shelf
or at least settled unobtrusvely in an armchair
by the fire-now is refuted by science and by
oldsters themselves. You will remember maybe
that-theN- used ia say women were "has beens"
when they turned mere forty.
While many discouraged grandmas and
grandpas have allowed themselves to be indoc-
trinated with the idea that once they've reached
the Biblical allotment of three score years and ten
there is nothing left to do but wait for the Old Man
with the Seythe, Industrious woman psychOlo-
gst has been digging up facts which indicate for
some that Life may begin at 100.'
Taken in its most literal sense that would
mean that at least three persons out of every
100000 in the United States will get their second
at living a happy and useful life, because there
that many people in this country who live
to be 100 years old or over.
But the bigger implication of a study of $50
centenarians, recently completed by DR.. Grace r..
Bird professor emeritus of Psychology at Rhode
Island State College of Education is that old
people in general aren't doomed to unwanted
dependency and days of futility if they start in
time TO prepare for those years of life after the
seventh decade.
Like many other experts on gerontology (the
science of ageng), Dr. Bird has been concerned
about the increasing number Of oldsters and what
they would mean in a post war world. Her in
vestigatons of a random group of men and
women ranging from 100 to a claimed 125 showed
that these people who had passed the century
mark couldn't be CaSScd dOddering armchair
sitters by any means.
This group, including several college gradu-
ates, clergymen, doctors, high ranking army

Marquis de Villarceaux and Moliere the play
wright.
Had Ninon lived another ten years there is
more than a fifty-fifty chance that she would
also have seen her 102nd or 103rd birthday,
because the recent research shows that reaching
the century mark is pretty good guarantee for
more than half Of the centenarians that they will
live at least two or three years more.
The danger months when the sands of life
for oldsters most likely to run out are
December and March-months when respiratory
diseases take a considerable toll. The fewest
deaths in this centenarian group came in June
and September.
Lots Of diseases don't catch you after a GER
tain age" opines the psyCholOgist-investigato
She adds to this observation numerous instances
Of centenarians who have recovered from acc-
dents, shocks and operations that might have
meant the end of the journey for more youth
full members of society.
One little old lady Of 103 who was knocked
down by car got up calmly, busted herself off
and said:
Little things like that don't bother me-"
1t seems that with the second century of life
the body sometimes acquires new powers of re-
pair and Notwithstanding psychologists
haven't yet explained.
One woman at the age of 10S declares that
she can sympathize with babies, "for teethings
something fierce She is cutting her third set
of teeth, there is marked Improvement in her
cyesight, and her hair which has been
white for fifty years now is streaked with shiny
black.
A man who lived to be 1O2 didn't succumb
TO the prevalent idea of medical experts, which is
that life is limited by the weakest organ of ones
body This oldsters stomach gave out after the
first sixty years and had TO be replaced with
silver tube. For the next ~ years he lived in
apparent comfort with his artificial digestive
apparatus.
Physical prowess after 100 was demonstrated
by another centenarian who skied down an Adj
rondack slope with grace and ease. When OBJ
servers expressed awe at such feat executed

officials, United States Senator, an actress and
various other people Of note, was remarkable for
its youthful enthusiasms, renewed physical
strength wide interest in world affairs and yes
believe it or not-romantic inclinations.
All displayed a keen sense of humor.
Contrary to what many people might expect,
these and women of truly ripe old age didn't
sit around thinking and talking about things that
happened in a remote past. They were too busy
making plans for the future-their own.
Most Of them parents and grandparents,
and while they were tolerant and sympathetic
with the problems of youth, they weren't content
just to live their lives again in the activities
of their grandchildren or great-grandchldren.
Many of these centenarianS according to DR..
Bird are actively employed.
One man at 100 is an airplane spotter Another
has been appointed deputy sheriff third super
vises the care of siXty-eght CATTLE six horses
and two mules in Arizona. One woman is an artist,
still painting; another works in her sons candy
shop.
One clergyman conducts church services every
Sunday. A farmer we'll over 100 still plows his
field every Spring. One man at 104 passed tests
for a drivers license.
Most of the centenarians in the group studied
showed more interest in life than many a whip
persnapper by comparison, who was still in his
early seventies.
Since the study included centenarians spread
over a period Of 20 years, only $40 members of
the group still alive. Of the 40 who died
So were men and II women bearing out the obser-
vation Of other experts that about twice many
women as men reach the century mark.
But it's hard TO get there, girls, without the
handle of Mrs. attached to your name Only eight
old maids were included in Dr. Birds group,
although one of these did live to be 10S.
Scientists explain that matrimony contributes
to longevity because a normal family life tends
to protect a person from exposure to numerous
hazards such accidents, alcoholism, suicide
and such diseases as syphilis.
Then, too, natural selection plays part.
Physically fit people tend to marry those indi-
viduals who are physically fit.
OF course, if there are any readers who want
to argue that there is something about the
emotion of love itself that makes people live
longer they point with some reason to the
famed Ninon de Lenclos, feminine charmer Of
King Louis the XIVs era. She never reached
the century mark, but she did live to be ninety.
Ninon has been called the most beloved
woman of all time because she had 152 love
affairs 1t is said that she was neither beautiful
witty, but high spirits and perfect evenness
of temper were her distinguishing charms Any
way she numbered many famous men among her
lovers, including Charles de st. Evremont the
