AIIOl'T IKVIX OLD.
A learned writer In an eastern Jour
nal, through an extendud argument,
tells peoplo how to grow old, says
(inodwln's Weekly. That ns a super
(luoua look on Its face. That was ar
ranRed before the beginning of time.
Jl Ib a natural process. A good many
want to retard It, but very lew warn
to accelerate It. And then It does not
need any lecture, It will come of It
eelf. A good many people have dlB-
i anted on how to Keep young, ami
ihmi i a mire of an audience, llut all
the receipts have failed. Others have
written lecturefl on now id oiu
gracefully and the, loo, have been
failures. As well tell a man to walk
Kracofully, and they, too, have been
one foot and the toes o(f the other
one.
There Is only one receipt thnt
counts when n person is growing old,
and that is do the best he can every
day, not being certain of the next;
and that does not need any lecture;
It does not need any reminders, be
cause he has them with him. Sonio
tlines they come In rheumatic pains
In an unexpected plnco, Somethnen

Tho signs are plenty, and mer,

how a man should grow old. Old
mother nntnre Is attending to that
nil the time. Hhe Is putting more

makes him more and nioro nfrald to

the evil days come not nor the years
druw nigh, when Ihou shnlt say, 'I

nor the moon, nor the slurs nnd the
clouds return not after the rain." etc
And he might have added that the
way to grow old Is for a man to do
tho best he can every day and to nurse
tho belief that, If his sout la Immortal,
It was planned that he should grow
