' New York city seems to have been

Why WomenLive
Longer Than Men
. v,.. lnnir realized
that -thanks to a better knowledge, of
lanUaUon and personal hygiene People
are living longer than formerly, the
much grelter relative logevlty of worn
as shown in the recently published
shown that the expectation of life of
- woman of 50 is now more than a
vearTreater than It was in 1875 while
IZt of a man of the same age is only
three months greater.
Discussing the reasons of our Increas
'hut longevity, and in particular wom
Ln?s stronger hold on life, physicians
t 8t Bartholomew's hospital advanced
widely different theories. "The essen
tlalvcauso of death," one stated, "Is a
wearing out from overwork of our brain
cells. Wofnen may be Just as brainy
as meii but they do not work their
brain cells as vigorously or as continu
ously an do their male relatives, it
they did there would not be no great
a disparity In the length of life of the
two sexes."
Another consultant puts down wom
an's greater expectation of life to the
more sheltered existence she leads and
tho lack of the physically depressing
competition which is part of nearly
every man's life. "A woman may have
hard work to do," he explained, "but

or who follow professions they work

This recipe makes a pint of cough
syrup enough to -last family a long
. time. You couldn't buy as much, or as
good cough syrup for 12.50.
. Simple as it is, it gives almost instant
- relief and usually stops the most obsti

due to the fact that it is slightly laxa
tive, stimulates the appetite and nas an
excellent tonio effect. It is pleasant to
takechildren like it. An excellent rem-
-: dy, too, for whooping cough, croup, sort
lungs, asthma, throat troubles, etc.
7 Mix one pint of granulated sugar with
. pint of warm water, and stir for 2
4 minutes. Put 2 ouncea of Pinex ( fifty
vf cents' worth) in a pint bottle, and add
yhe Sugar Syrup. It keeps perfectly.
"ake a teaspoonful every one, two or
three hours.

ship lists to, any minister of any sect
In the city. The move was taken In
order that the - association might be

sions thereby given more weight. The
association, now Invites all ministers of
the city to Join its forces, and the mem
bership Is expected to be greatly- aug
mented within the next few weeks.
Henceforth the association hopes to in
itiate, movements and push them

Fresh Air Fiends

By Edna K. , Wooley.
"I'm something of a fresh air fiend
myself,'' said th girl who had been
complaining of a stiff neck, "but there's
such a thing as too much fresh air.
That's why I have to turn my whole (
body around II I want to see what s
going on at th left of me. , 1
"It's partly my fault I suppose, sh
ruefully continued. "Our office used to
be perfectly dreadful. The atmosphere
was positively solid, with the men
smoking and. the radiators on full force
and 1 every window tightly closed. I
used to fuss and fume and gasp and
have at least three fights a, day to get
a window open and some fresh air Into
the room. .Men are th awfulest cranks
when It cornea- to fresh air! i
"Well, last fall a couple of new younac
men . came Into the office. They had
desks at opposite sides of the room,
right next to the windows, and they
were nice, athletio loking young fel
lows. They Joined me in the struggle
for fresh air and we formed an active
minority : of three lined up . against a
Btubborn majority. I guess this stiff
neck is one of the , bad things wished
on me at that time. ; - f
"It was lovely for a while, nntil
those athletic young fellows began to
get the other men interested in the Y.
M, C. A. gymnasium. Of courses it
was splendid to get' the men going to
the gymnasium it was good tor them
and I was glad to see them beginning
to sit up and act like men instead of
doing the turtle stunt Into their collars
and getting their clothes scorched In
stripes from leaning up against tne ra
dlators.
"But men never know when to stop.
"First thing I knew the windows on
both Bides of the room were open to
their full capacity, with a aero breeze
blowing through to beat the band. And
actually those , two athletic young fci
lows eat there In shirtwaists no coat
or vest and looked as if they were
perfectly happy. I couldnt talk with
