FOOLING TIME
Every tew years thcic la a new ngllntlon
for provcntlng old nge. Drinking buttermilk,
a vegeinhlo dirt, nnd other means arc rec
ommended. The recurrence of the subject
proves lta popularity, and Indeed we are alt
of us inclined to feel that there is no time
like the present, and to regret tho way old
Fnthor Time la nllowod to break nil speed
laws. After what the Christian nnd mental
scientists have demonstrated of their ability
to avoid Illness by simply denying its exist
ence, men may crndunlly develop tho power
to defy old age by tacitly Ignoring It.
Hut now thern comes a scientist, Dr. 11. S.
Williams, who describes In the Cosmopolitan
(I) a new discovery for arresting the ravages
of old age:
The now drugs which give such necroman
tic promise nro unlmal extracts, prepared
from somo obscure elands of tho sheep, the
plK or the ox. Bekeley has made tests to seo
whether this drug which accelerates tho
sluggish action nf tho brain of tho retarded
child, may not also servo to arrest or delay
curtain cases of premature breakdown of tho
mental powers In old age. Ho reports that In
the cases of premature mental fnllure with
distinct organic rnuse. the drug has proved
of great value with about a dozen patlentB,
with whom It has received a fair trial. Somo
of these patients, he snys, decline positively
to be without the drug, nnd he nddii: "I must
conclude that it definitely stimulates the
aginu brain to the faster chemistry of
younger dnjs." So here Is a drufr that
promises to stimulate tho mental growth of
defective children and to retard tho onset
of senility.
There 1b In Scribner's an article by a young
man of 85, who says that we never really
grow old at all, and the charming vitality of
his stylo elves weight to his assertion. In
"Growing Old" (2) P. Demlnx writes:
And here I come to tho next of those
"somethings" which I wish to say. It Is not
something now, but n something- that has
been emphasized by my experience. It Is
tho fact bo often discovered by tho nged, that
folks of any sort do not, In the depths of
reality, change or grow old. Tho outside of
tho man or woman waxes and wanes, but tho
"I myself within me," that something of
which we nre conscious, thnt spark of tho
Infinite llnme seems ns changeless as eternity.
To himself and to those who know him very
Intimately, and most completely, the man Is
anil seems just as young and just as old at
20 as at fourscore. I have had exceptional
opportunity to know about this. We were a
family of seven children, of tho old New Eng
land stock and Puritan. We have nil lived
to be several years be.vond 70. Wo grew up
together and have continued to dwell In our
native land In concoicl and harmony: Each
has read tho others, as the saying Is, like the
pages of a book Changes have come, tho
usual changes. And these have been many.
But the dispositions, tendencies, tastes,
proferences, loves, hntcs. nnd all the long
catalog of personal nunlltlrs have remained
the name, and seem bound to continue un
changeable forever.
A Woman's Message
With n similar philosophy, a woman of 77
tells her ."Secrets of a Happy Life" in The
Delineator (3). She makes of It a very ap
pealing and human documont:
I nm a plain body whose lot was cast In
tho country, and who received neither tho
gift of oratory nor u facile pen, but the de
sire has ever been with me to tell to others
tho summum bonum of life as it appears to
me I am 77 years of age now, nearly the
nllotted fourscore, and as I stand hero at the
threshold of another world I look back and
declare that youth, maturity and age weio all
good, will always fill their appointed niches
In tho world's m.irch, nnd will always bring
largo measures of satisfaction to all who
strive conscientiously to Improve; but of tho
threo stages I pronounce age by far the best.
I would say with Robert Browning's Rabbi
Ben Ezra.
"Grow old along with
The best is yet to he,
The last of life for which the first was made;
Our times are In his hand
Who salth, 'A whole 1 planned,
Youth shows hut half; trust God: see all, nor
be afraid.' "

this part of Ontario was now, and I wns one

The Hoy Is Father to tho Man
Tho typical attitude between youth and
age would be a difficult thing to deilne,
tendency toward patronage on the part of
age, a certain suspicion from the youth, jn
"Years of Indiscretion," Vogue analyzes it
(4):
Hiding tho time some serum shall be com
pounded to Innoculato "Youth" with the ex
perlence of "Age," the ounger generation
must be content to "Jest grow" ns Topsy did.
Our reckless American ancestors otten mar
ried when well tinder 25, nnd many yourig
folk In Colonial days wore parents before
either fnther or mother had attained legal
majority. Even now there are parts of th
United States where many boys and girls
quit school to marry while they are yet In
the grammar grades. In many rural Amer
ican communities where early marriages aro
still usual, social life exists mainly for per
sons under 25 years of age, and It Is almost
a scandal for a mother, howevor young, t6
bo seen nt dances and parties. She Is per
mitted the mild gaieties of the family !n
ner, or tho gossiping supper with stnld wo
men of her own condition, but If sho go
beyond these Indulgences, folk begin to war
their heads.
"Young folk think old folk are fools, but
old folk know young folk are fools," runs a
proverb sometimes henrd of old, to which
pelt jouth replied, "There's no fool like an
old fool."
Tho boy who asserted that even the Al- ,
mighty could not make a two-year-old
colt In ono minute, took an Irreverent way '
of expressing a significant Idea.
In a little quatrain by Sarah CIcgltorn, '
which The Survey quotos (5), there is a
sadder sense of an occasional Incongruous
contrast between youth and age. She writes
"from the heart of the child labor belt In
South Carolina":
Tho golf-links He so near the mill,
viiat almost every day
The laboring chlldron enn look out
And watch the men at play. . 4
Ironically Collier's touches upon the paren-
tal relation, quoting; from a Kansas paper.
Collier's comments (6):
Talk about Jayhawker Idealism! "Why not e
stick to simple practical things like prohibi
tion nnrl the political utilization of Mr. f
Arthur Capper, nnd hitching your wagon to
a star? Why attempt the Illimitable? Still
wo like the Idea. $
