THE HELPING HAND: Bear ye ones unothcVtt burdens, and no fulfil jth'e law of Clnit,Galations ' The Easy Way OFFICE CAT TRAGI MAHK BY JUNIUS Some people spend their whole lives in an effort to live longer. They spend all their time and energy in first one fad and then an other, in their feverish desire to lengthen their days, and forget to fill them with the things that make life really worth living. If you want to lose your popularity, assuming that you have Home, just liotfin to talk about, vour troubles to everyone you meet. THE STOKY IX A NlTSHEM. You're, on joy in tr good health (T)iatV. fine. You want to remain well That's I natural. You may be careless Thai's pos sible. tlioiidit at it 11 to the main-; v.u ,my "vo " accident-Thai x tenance b life, until they suddenly realize that their days are; y,)U aincicly hope not That's ob shortening Theti they grasp irrationally at any magical scheme, vmu any Fountain of Youth, any charm or incantation that will grant That' wisdom. them a new lease on life. . Amy Tush says his idea of hard The first class of people forget what life is for. The second-- -v4uE & Tw it is not needed. The man who is a preat man to his neighbors is very great indeed. "Safety First" class neglect to caio for the lives they have, Hence the sudden ': need of a magic potion in so many cases. The alleged discovery of an extraordinary plant, to displace meat in the diet, that will lengthen. life indefinitely will appeal to .'this class of people. The exponent of this discovery, writing from I'ai is, claims Biblical authority by identifying it with the Tree of i Life in the Garden of Kden, adding that Adam's sin was not the V- .traditional one.Uit that of departing from a vegetarian diet, which included this plant. This report will doubtless raise the hopes of numerous cred ulous persons who are constantly on the watch for the new and the. strange. . ; .v There is iust one way to a long life. That is the careful, con scientious and consistent observance of the laws of lifephysical, mental and moral. There is no short and easy way and hard. But it is worth while. The Cityward Migration ... i According to an estimate made by the department of agricul ture, the American farm population declined about 4(50,000 in .. 1922. The basis of the estimate is a survey of 10,000 representa tive farms and groups of farms. Apparently the country's agri cultural population has fallen 1.5 per cent, below that shown , by the 1020 census, which reported 31,859,000 persons on farms. But the change need not alarm those who realize the indispensability ndfi AU(xpaimiono.f, farming, if cily,,dwelle.v . M'.e. to. .have, a, depend able supply of cheap food.
