Long Lived. Individuals.
The longevity of the patriarohs may
not be attained, but the century post is
passed by more pie than ane would
.suppose. If m ern scientists may be
believed the Biblical characters who
were said to have reached a phenomenal
age were really much younger than the
Soriptural records make it appear. The
question rests altogether on the proper
translation of certain words, and the
- claim set up by many philologists of
this day is that the translators of the
Bible erred in making the patriarchs so
long lived. Thus it is held by scientists
who have given the subject a close
study that Adam, instead of reaching
the age of 930 years, as is *Wedged in
the existing version of the Bible, really
died at 130 ; that Seth died at 121 and.
not at 912, Enos at 114 and not 935,
Cain at 119 instead of 910, Mahalaleel
at 122 instead of 835, Jared at 147 "u1-
stead of 962, Methuselah at 124 instead
of 969, and Noah at 159 instead of 950.
This theory would make the ancients
no older than many men and women
who havedied during the last century
or two, and of whose age there is not
mach if any -question.
Thomas Barr wasborn in Shropshire,.
England, in 1483 and died in 1685.. He
lived in three centuries, and tilled the
soil until he was more. than 130 years
old. At 120 years of age be in he mar-
ried ried a widow, and seemed to
per-
fect health. He had no habits, r
pursued no special course of living tend-
ing
end-ing to long life. His apparent sound-
ness of body and mind made him a
great curiosity. The Earl of Arundel,
thinking to please his royal master,
took Parr to the court room of Charles
I. The old man whose life had been
passed in the most simple fashion, fell
a victim to his appetite at the age of
152. Dr. Harvey made a post mortem
examination and found no sign of dis-
ease. He lived with his wife thirty-
two years, when she died, having made
hied the father of two children at that
time He is described as having been
entirely covered with a thick coating of
hair, was tall,well made and hal'idsome,
and to the last is, said to have paid
great attention to his personal ° appear-
ance- But even so it remains a - great
mystery how, at the age of 80 and 120,
he could have induced young women to.
marry him. At the age of 100 he be-
came blind. All other faculties he pre-
served unimpaired until death.'
The nextmostcelebrated and auth
entio case of longevity is that of the
Countess of Desmond. She was of the
family of Fitzgeralds, of• Dramana, in
the county of Watford. Sir Walter
Raleigh says that in his time she was
no less remarkable for her sprightliness
than for her age. The House of Des-
mond was ruined by an attainder after.
the Countess had lived over a century,
and in her one hundred and fortieth.
year she travelled from. Bristol to Lon-
don to solicit relief from court. She
•lived some years -after this, and twice
cut a full set of teeth. She was nearly
one hundred and fifty when she died,
as well preserved as many a woman at
sixty. In the reign of Names I. a moris
dance was danced in Herefordshire by
twelve people whose united ages
amounted to 1,200 years.
Henry Jenkins, of Bolton,Lanoashire,
lived to be over one hundred and sixty.
Mrs. Annie Saville, a writer of the
time gave an account of him. She
says : " I questioned him about his age.
He replied he was one hundred and
sixty two or one hundred and sixty-
three. I asked him what public event
he could longest remember. He said
Flodden Field, when Henry V.111 was
King. He said he was then between
ten and twelve years of age, and was
sent to Northallerton with a horse load
of arrows, but a bigger boy was sent to
the army with them." The battle of
Flodden Field was fought September
9th 1512, and Jenkins was then a boy
of twelve. He died December 9, 1760,.
so that he must have lived one hun-
dred and sixty-nine years, sixteen
years longer than old. Parr,- or longer
than any other man in the world, as far
as known.
Margaret Patten was born in Soot -
land -in the -reign of Elizabeth, and ob:-
taineci a great reputation for Scotch
cooking. Jaynes VI liked the dishes of
his own country,so a Scotch cook was
imported in the person of Mistress
Patten. This is the only important
event in herhistory and, indeed, all
that is known her,
her,except her great
age, which was that of one hundred and
forty-one year Though she had been
cook to a king he died in a workhouse.
Thomas. La4ghar, an Englishman,
lived to be o e hundred and seven
years of age, is mother died at one
hundred and_ ight, and his father at
ninety-seven. He =-was a liquor mer-
chant in Lon on, and drank freely np
to the age of fi ty years, when he cut
that business and turned teetotaller.
At the age of e ghty he -had a severe
sickness, on re overing from which he
got a new hea of hair and new nails
on his fingers nd toes.
Henry Eva s, a Welshman, thed in
England in 17 1 aged 129.
Jane Scrims aw was remarkable for
having lived d ring the reign of eight
sovereigns, an" in one place, London,
from Elizabet to Anne.
Jane's fathe was in very humble cirt
cumstances, a d at his death she was
obliged to bec me an inmate : of the
almshouse, in hich she remained up-
wards of eight years. She never mar
ried, and was 27 at her death. Up to
the age of 108 er faculties were quite
perfect, and he easily and rapidly
walked a coup e of miles on a stretch.—

THE
at
Ladies, Take a Vacation Any-
- way.
One of the blest results of a summer
vacation and a little trip away from
home is. to enable one to see that the
world is wide, land that our part of it is
only a part of it,; and the advantage
gained from this knowledge is that our
charity and kindly feeling for our neigh-
bor, who differs greatly from us, is in -
ceased. We find thatadage the old ad ge is
true it does take all kinds of people to
make a world: Then with what increas-
ed delight the usual routine commences
in the home again. If any one doubts
in regard to the good effects of a brief
rest, and what physicians call a change
of air and scene, let her try it. How-
ever hard it may seem to unclasp the
baby's clinging hands, and to say good-
bye to your restless little boys, it will be
better for them in the end. From the
ceaseless activity and the urgency of a
mother's daily life, there must be
periods of rest and change, and if no
other member of the family can get
away tor a week that one should be the
mother ? for:in the f well -re: ated li' e of
a sensible man there is not Fhe friq ion
and the strain uprn the
Ives w fob
the mother necessarily feeleH. , But the
ideal journey ie when father and mo her
go together on a few days' o ting, a d if
there is any power te makeparents ap-
preciate all that their ohil ren are to
them it is the power which separates
them for a few days."
