GROW OLD GRACEFULLY.-
Elllznbetli Cndy Stnnton, AKed. 85,
Offers Pertinent Advice.
New York Sun. '
iMrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton has been
writing on the subject of how to grow old
easily, happily and gracefully. She is nowj
in her S5th year and she says life to her;
is as sweet as ever. She has no pains on
aches, no regrets or forebodings for her
self; all her sorrows are for the troubles
of others.
"I attribute my vigorous old age in part
to advantageous circumstances," she says,
"in part to a happy, hopeful temperament
a keen sense of humor, sympathies for all
my fellow beings and a deep interest in all
the vital questions of the hour. One must
have an earnest purpose in life beyond!
personal ambition and family aggrandize
ment. Self-centered characters do not
possess the necessary elements of a high;
development. If one would have a happy;
old age tho first condition Is a sound,
body; to that end exercise, diet, dress and!
sanitary conditions are all important.
"Nature does her best at all periods ofi
woman's life to make each change one oil
added health and happiness. Those obedi
ent to her laws rejoice in every step from
youth, to age. Fifty is the heyday of In
tellectual life. Then the vital forces used!
in reproduction aro garnered in tho brain,
giving new ideas and adding force, clears
ness and beauty to thought. There comes
to a woman eloquence of expression anct
she finds a wider field for her sympathies.
She has new interests In the great world!
which is the future home of her chil
dren, in which she is now to labor td
make it fit for them to live in. My philos
ophy is to live in the present. Re
grets for the past are vain; the page la
turned: there is no remedy for what ia
done. As to the future, anxieties aro
equally vain; we do not know what one
day will bring forth; what we hope or
fear may never occur; the present is all
that Is ours."
The InttanM Hair.
Philadelphia Inquirer.
Lo, the poor Indian, whose untutored
mind loves to wear his hair long, after
the manner of his ancestors. Well, he is
up against the orders of a paternal Gov
ernment, which has Issued a ukase
against long hair for men. It may be
that there Is some connection between
short hair and civilization, but we are
not able to say what it is. A century ago
It was the custom for men to wear their
hair long and tie It in a bag at the back.
Nowadays short hair is the mode, but a
decade hence long hair may come ia
again. "We have a gT-eat deal of sympa-
A Stlrrup-Cnp Son?.
Fill high the stirrup-cup. my friends;
T pledge a toast tonltrht;
To every man who dons the pink
And rides In foremost night;
Who never charges at a gate
When crowds are gathering fast.
But takes his fences like a man,
And wins the brush at last.
nil high the cup and drink to him,
"Who's honest, brave and true;
Who always does to other folks
As he would hae them do;
Who never cannons at a gap.
Or rides for greed of place;
But spares his horse, and yet can win
In every hunting race.
We'll drink to him who speaks his rflind,
Nor fears a braggart's frown;
Who hits a focman straight and fair.
Yet strikes not when he3 down;
Who woman's honor aye respects.
And guards her soul from stain;
Who loves one only, and the world
Would give that love to gain.
The first in love, the first In "war.
The first in hunting field.
Who proudly wears on his left arm
A bright, unsullied shield;
Who ever strives to do the right.
And scorns the deed that's wrong.
To him I raise my glass tonight.
And chant my stirrup song.
