The' London Standard having recent,. •ly had obtruded upon its notice the existence of e. centenarian here awl of - another there in England, inakes SOMA r9f1ections Open ttos subject of the pos. sildlities of attaining to the ago Of 100 • years and of the desirability of living to be so old, Tim Standard says: 4, There is much in nsodern life thM tondo to shorten existence se.nd to died nish the probability that a man or woman will reach 90, to say nothing of 100, We lead more exciting and more wearing lives. It is in vain that a per. • son has a splendid constitution to begin • with, wears flannel, or the equivilent of flannel next tohis skin, dwells in a warm, dry house, and eats sad drinks every- thing that is good and wholesome, ft ai the game time be habitually overtaxes his strength, looks upon his muscles as more machinery, to be driven at high pressure, and ruthlessly Ofilja npOn his nerves to squander their reserve power When every othernource of energy is ex- hausted. Men or women who intend to be centenarians in these days must com- bine something of the old mode of lifo. with som th in g of the new mode of living. They mat, while availing themselves of all the scientific discoveries and sani- tary appliances of the age, imitate their grandsires in the steady and tranquil •habits that prevailed before the invenl, tion W loeomotives Enid the telegraph. They must have their eight hours of sleep regularly; they must have intervals of' repose and viteancyin the daytime; they must spend a goodly portion of their waking hours in the open air. Nor will that suffice; there will have to her raw'. larity in the hours of their meals, and ditepline in the ordering of the dishes of which the meals are composed. We cannot believe that, anybody will ever live to 100 who eats a h'eavy dinner even - night of his life, at 8 o'clock. ' Chem, pane in abundance, and Bordeaux or I3urgundy ad./a/item, are very delightful things, but they aro to be foresworn by • persons who deliherately set before them the attaining �ftheir hundredth birth- day.
