i'UBLiSIur.U) RYE1iY TIhURSDAY AT :WBEP1I. S. C. joW TO PROLONG LIFE. An Inve.tigatonI of LongevitY by Carefl Inquiry. Detroit Free Press. Clement M. Hammond is an as sO(!ate editor of The Boston Globe. and he has taken an ingenmous, if lIomlel'. mletlhod of ascertaining the facts and conditions thai Usulally accompany longevity. Briefly.. hle sent out blanks to the representatives of the paper 11 every cu':ty of the New England States. asking for the following in formation1 in relation to men anc women in:dubitably over the age of --Name. residence. age, nation a.lits: whether married or single general description. including siz wteir1lt, cAm1plexion. etc.; cliil dien, how nany, ages, state of health. e'c.: habits. hours of rising, retiring, meals. exercise, etc, ; occupations. post and pres ent; food and dri :k, quantity, kinds, etc.; attacks of sickness, if any, and at what ages nature of disease, etc. ; con lition of teeth, hair, beard, skin, etc., at time when seen by correspondent; age at which father and mother died and of grandfather and grand mother, whenever possible." In reply to these queries, which, by the way, were to be based or on accuracy rather than "enter prise." Mr. Hanimond received full and detailed descriptions of no fewer than 3,500 cases of bona fide ontogenarianism, and the cases were confined to no partic ular kind of locality, but came in indiscriminately from hill and valley, sea coast and inland. Cli mate and temperature were thus eliminated as factors making for length of life. HABITS OF LONG LIVERS. As might be expected, the mar ried people of New England live lQnger than those selfish or unfor tunate onles who affect a life of single ble ssedness : that is the fate Or ogd fO ortuJne of married people everywhere. But the proportior of thle one class to the other of the New Englanders who attain the -four score goal upsets all ordinary reckonings. for the married ones number no fewer than ninety-five in everyv hundred of those on the list, If that fact be not sufficient to give a rousIing im petus to the worsip~ of Hymen, then must it be conelaIded: that the men and womenCI of miodern days are no long~er in love with length of years. An ciLer peculiarity revealed by 3f,. H~aamB'd-d canvass, and1 it is a peculiarity, is the fact that dark com lectd" popleare not ini the race f r longevity with the 1light ~comnieted. for five out of every sixunth New England old folks under r view are blonde, with blue or gr-ay eyes, and abundant brown hair. As to the habits of life of these old folks the answers furnished to 3Ir. Hammond's inquiries all point to the fact that longevity. save when it is accompanied with reg uiarity of habit, is rare. -These old people. men and women alike, are put down as early risers and retirers, almost with out exceptijon. and fully nineteen out of every twenty have observed tils eaIstomf throughout life, ex ee: t, y)riaps at some short pe riod in muoth. M1eals have been eateu regularly, three each day. with di::uer at noon. the excep tion beingr so rare as to indicate niotlhig.

IN IT. Mrs. Han11t11oid says: VWhile the farmers of New England adl their wives are a cleanly p'eopl. they are not much given to bathing. This neglect may not have pro longed their existence or made them more healthy. but it is to be presumed thlt it has not cut off iny years or ca used mach disease. Neither are the mIem1 bers of these households well in formed in relation to sanitary matters. They,' know little of the unseen danipness t") whiel the human svstenm is (on)1staltiy ex posed, and. knowin; little. crc little. May no)t this be an itilu enee in favor of a prolonged Ex istence, paradi xical as the suIP sition may seem In Hinghamn. Mass.. with only 4.( )0 inhabi tants. there are eighty people over St) years o0 age. and out of these seventy-tive are of light (:om i plexion. In no other town in New England, so far as could be learned. is there such a proportion of old people. Th is town is on the sea coast, lies very low, is without sewers, and has only re cently put in a system of water works. From a sanitary point of view the conditions here are about as unfavorable to long life as could be conceived outside the crowded portions of the large cities. And in Boston. %vhere the sanitary conditions appear te be the worst-in the North End and South Boston districts-bthe great est number of very old people are found." The moral of Mr. Hammond's very interesting article is, there fore---get married, be a farmer, or at least live and energize in the open air, don't change your occu pation, eat and drink plentifully, take your whisky and your tobacco when you have a mind but, more essential still, get into a position of wordly independence where you may never have to fret yourself about your daily viatica. and tin ally and above all things, cultivate alight comiplexion. A Misssippi Waaering~ PIa, e. [Rebecca Ha:rdng Dav:s. in Harpr's Magtaz:ne for' &.ptemiiber.] Biloxi is a long scrambling village, built on a ledge of sandhills between the bay and quiet stretches of pine woods that roll back over Harrison County. "The very place for invalids with incipient throat tronb!es!" Major Pogue declared, en thiusiasticahlly. "The South wind blows to themi straight from ofl the Gulf of Mexico, and the North wind sifts all the heal ing for them out of tihese pineC for ests." Biloxi is but little knowni as vet as a Winter health resort. Oar tray eers found an old-fashio;ned inra among the few houses that were open; a pile of aleries in~ tiers a)ott a court into which cozy little cham bers opened, each with its cheery fire and canopied French bed. A creole family had it in charge. What they lacked in English they made up in gestures and good humor. The house was fall of consumptive and asthmatic patients from the Southern States, with a few fromn Chicngo and other points in the Northwest. The average American meets even death with good-humored sang froid. These pale doomed folk made up fishing parties every morning, and sailed away, coughing and singing, to the islands which lay like blots of shadow in the rolling fogs of billowy silver that filled the bay: they came back coughing, chattering and joyous. in the evening. iop out of the red sun set. with enormous loads of fish, which they displayedl in the court yard of the inn, under the lamps which hung in the huge live oaks, while their wives and children anid the negroes gathered about them as excited as if these were the first fish ever hauled out of that water. T1here was a delightful disorder and snoujtan-ity inii the wh lidplae. At uncertain hom-:s a gray old negro wve-t through~i the ga~leries shonflting) --leakfast," or "Dimnner," or ''Sup per." as if it had juit occurred to hima that son:ebody miight be hungiy. and evervbody. set out in search of a rer'ote dinine.room,. to ilud a pleniti fu1 meal, pepp1ery- and highi-tia:vored,. aftr the creole fa-hion.

Laundry Suaggestions. LG((d Housekeeping.] Among numerous suggestions for the laundry that come to mind, the following are jotted down: Perspira tion -taii- in collars can be removed by using a very light bleach. For general laundry work ten ounces of wheat starch and six ounces of corn starch to every gallon of water give excellent result:. For the cold starch, wheat is the best material, especially for jine work. because corn starch has a tendency to deposit blue dustlike part:cles. Gloss and stiffness can be produced on collars, cuffs and shirt bosoms by first puttinug them through a pretty stiff clear boiled starch, and then drying them. after which they should be d:tnpwle,ned with the following souittioi: One ounce of fine raw starch, one quarter ounce of gum araiie, one p)int of water; heat the witer to dis-olve the gum, let it cool, and then stir in the starch and add the white of on, egg; beat the whole weil together before using. Apply lightly with a sponge, and use a pol ishing iron properly to develop the gloss. To keel) flannels as much as possi ble from shrinking and felting, dis solve one ounce of potash in a bucket of water and leave the fabric in it for twelve hours. Next warm the water, with the fabric in it, and wash with out rubbing, also draw through the water repeatedly. Next immerse the flannel in another liquid containing one spoonful of wheat flour to one b pailful of water, and wash in a simi lar manner. Thus treated, the flan nel becomes nice ai.d clean, has bare- 1 a lv shrank, and is almost not at all felted. The tendency of hot starch to ad- i here to the iron may be avoided by putting kerosene or spermaceti into it. A bit of white soap dissolved in the water used to prepare the cold starch each week will have the same effect. Ear:hquake Experiences [.June Atlantie.] I wish to say a word or two more concerning that sense of something like personal ferocity in the power which had laid hold of us, which I have confessed to receiving from the first and longest of the earthquake sh.cks. It afterwards appeared that everybody who was cool enough closely to observe his own sensations had experienced much the same thing. One Englishman, who ar rived a few days later from stricken ~ Mentone, and who seemed to cherish fresh and tender recollections of h's school days, compared his feelings to hose of a boy whom his masterI seizes and shaker violently, by way of - prelude to a flogging. To another occun?e l the kindred image of the terrier and the rat. A third, of more pastoral p)roclivities, thought of a slender tree grasped by the mighty hand of one who would shake off all its fruit. One and all had the sensa tion of being laid hold of by some ruthless and monstrous individuality -much like the feeling, I should say, which the insect must have a which s2es the giant foot descending that is to crush out its little spark of g conscious life. Of this first un reasoning andi excessively heathenish I impression- I never was quite able to rid myself. "Deliver us," I could have said, on the authority of the Revised Version, "from the Evil One who has done this thing!" All through the next three or four days,-days of the most serene and surpassing love liness, when we used to go out upon the dry hillside, and lie down for a little under the olives, in the hope of catching a few moments of thorough lv sweet and untormented slumber, I had ever the notion that it was ly ing under me, with vast limbs gradu ally relaxing from their awful spasm, and I could have sworn at times that my mossy couch trembled a little, as with the long quiver of a subsiding sigh. It made no difference how high we climbed. Up) even to the almost Alpine heights above the olive, where one could take in the whole sweep of that enchanting littoral, from Esterel to far below~ Capo San Ampeglio, the saox strange fancy pursued us, that of an immrense, unknowable and maligantt poewer which had made all those miii's of s.weeping land to titter likce the folds of a banner. I reemblered the earthquake which visited Eliijah ini the desert, in which, it is distinetly asserted, the Lord was no. and I wondered if the next re lwin preached in the p)arlors of Boto would be Manichean, and if I shudbe its p)rophet. The rumor reached us a tewv davs later that -Etna was iLl active eruption, and the nes was thought reassuring. It led us. at all events, to speak of our monster henceforth by the name of Eueeladus. and to feel a new sympa thy with the pagan Greek. Bils IIvmn Books.

This was fu over 25 years ago. With all sorts of an exposure, in all sorts of climates, I have never, to this day, had any cold nor any affection of the throat or lungs which did not yield to AYER'S CHERRY PECTORAL within 24 hours. Po Of course I have never allowed my- fi self to be without this remedy in all my t1, voyages and travels. Under my own Id observation, it has given relief to vast I. numbers of persons: while in acute cases of pulmonary infiarrmation, such as to croup and diphtheria in children, life Wl has been preserved through its effects. an I recommend its use in light but fre- at quent doses.
