Oat of 77 Men of Genlui Less Than Half Attained 70. A great man does not always attain a ripe old age; in fact, hardly half of the greatest men of modern and an cient times have reached that limit of age set by the Bible—70. Among statesmen Mlrabeau was 42. Pitt 47, Caesar 65, Richelieu 57, Cromwell 69, Washington 67, Charlemagne 71, Fred erick the Great 74, Disraeli 75, Augus tus 76, Bismarck 83, Talleyrand 84.

The age at death of philosophers was, Spinoza 44. Descartes 53, Hegel 61, Aristotle 62, Socrates 68, Leibnitz 70, Linnaeus 70, Copernicus 70, Galileo 78, Kant 79, Plato 82, Newton 84, Hum boldt 89. The longevity of great writ ers and poets is as follows: Byron 36, Schiller 45, Moliere 51, Virgil 51, Shakespeare 62, Dante 56, Dickens 67, Horace 57, Racine 59, Scott 61, Milton 65, Cervantes 68, Aeschylus 69, Rabe lais 70, Petrarch 70, Euripides 74, Cor neille 78, Victor Hugo 83.

Prospective visitors and gold-seekers in the Klondike region may extract some comfort from the discovery, made by the Harriman Alaska expedition, that most of the glaciers which abound in that territory are receding. The fact is an indication that the average weather there is growing warmer. If it were growing colder the glacers would be advancing, while if It were about the same one year with another they would maintain the same general position, neither creeping nearer to the sea nor melting away from their ter- 'i rninal moraines. The rate of glacial recession is so slow, however, that fur overcoats and warm sleeping-bags are likely to remain as a part of the neces sary equipment of Alaskan travel for some years to come. Nothing, it may be added, is slower than the move ment of a glacier, except the settle ment of the Alaskan boundary dis pute. llerbine should be used to enrich and purify the blood; it cures all forms of blood disorders, is espectaly useful In fevers, skin eruptions, boils, pimples, blackheads, scrofula, salt rheum and ev- { ery form of blood impurity; it is a safe and effectual cure. Price 50 cents. P C. Corrigar. Kipling to Jalln Marlowe. Rudyard Kipling sent as a Christ mas present to Julia Marlowe a copy of his latest book, “The Day’s Work,” with this verse in autograph on the flyleaf: When skies are gray instead of blue. With clouds that come to dis hearten; When things go wrong as they some times do, In life’s little kindergarten; I beg you, my child, don’t weep and wall, And don’t, don’t take to tippling: But cheer your soul with a little tale By Neighbor Rudyard Kipling. “No,” said a Walnut street physician, “it is not true that all automobilists | suffer from the complaint popularly known as ‘wrong-lever mania,’ for my practice lies largely among this clas3 of people, and I can say positively that not more than seven out of ten are ever attacked by the disease. It is a thing that comes on them in moments of in tense excitement, when a street is overcrowded, when a runaway is mak ing directly for them, or when they are on the point of shooting over a precipice. Then, if ever, wrong-lever mania—a silly name, though the com plaint is so new that we haven’t yet had time to give it a good Greek or i*atln title—then, I say, if ever, they are liable to be attacked. There are generally—I may say always—in an automobile three levers, one to steer with, one to go fast with and the other to stop short. And the victim, the poor sufferer in this deadly crisis, for gets which" is which in the matter of levers, decides to guess, and pulls, naturally, the wrong one. That is why, In an acute attack of wrong-lever mania, Mrs. Hermann Oelrichs, at Newport last summer, drove over a stone wall, up a flight of marble steps and through the stained glass windows of the music room of a freind. It is why Alfred Vanderbilt went swiftly in an automobile phaeton down one of the cliffs backward Into the sea, and it is why Henry Lehr, in a petroleum T cart, completely demolished a green house of glass. No, wo have not yet found a remedy for the disease.”— Philadelphia Record. HE FOOLED I HE SURGEONS. All doctors told Renick Hamilton, of West Johnson, O, after suffering 18 months from Rectal Fistula, he would die unless a costly operation was pre formed, but he cured himself with Bucklen’a Arnica Salve, the beRt in the world.

Killed 250 lliitllrsimkec The Omaha 15ec- publishes the fol lowing: Mr. Berry and Miss Caldwell, of Sioux City, his niece, were strolling along the river bottom east of the house, through a beautiful natural grove, when all at once they discovered by the warning whirr of hundreds of horny tails that they were in the midst of a congress of rattlesnakes, that seemed to be in session as a com mittee of the whole for executive busi ness. Mr. Berry happened to have a spade in his hand and with it laid about him vigorously right and left. Miss Caldwell assisted with a club. When the battle was over they counted 256 dead rattlesnakes and half as many blue racers. A great many of the snakes had as high a3 11 rattles. They were an extraordinary vicious lot, and instead of attempting to escape came savagely at the intruders and fought doggedly until the last one was ex terminated. The rattles, which will fill an ordinary cigar box, they cut off and prize very highly as mementos of an exceedingly perilous position. Start the Year Bight.

They therefore hired three fiat cars which they adorned with a profusion of Chi nese lanterns. The first car was oc cupied by a splendid piano whieh was played by Arturo Jimenez; the second car was occupied by an estudiantina. and the third car by an orchestra of well-known ama errs. There cars were followed by a long procession of cy clists with their wheels adorned and all carrying torches. Flowers, con fetti and serpentines rained on the merrymakers from the balconies as they passed.—Mexican Herald. A FIENDISH ATTACK.
