Times In Our Lives When Grim Death , Eyes Us Enviously. - There are certain ages wherein death is veryjmmlneut, and of all these ages tbe most perilous Is the age of an hour or two. ' Yes, It is just after blrtb tbut we are in most danger of death, and the nest most perilous age to this is seventy-one years. , The age of three I the next most dangerous age. Almost one-fourth of all tbe babies born die during the third year. 1 , From three on to the age of forty five life is comparatively safe, but for ty-five, especially for women, is a try' ing time, and many are carried off. After passing forty-five in safety men and women may reasonably hope to reach seventy-one. Here again they are in great danger the greatest save for the first few hours after birth. , Longevity is a hereditary quality. It passes frou Vitber to son and from mother to daughter. . He who hud an octogenarian, father may hope to be come an octogendriiin himself, and she who bad aU octogenarian mother niny hope to become un octogenarian ber self. But a father's longevity does noi pass down to a daughter, nor does n mother's puss down to a sou. Nev Vork Tribune. THE ABSTRACT & TITLE CO. La Grande, Ore.
