any man on the shay side of middle life

he is shocked to find how meagre is the

from 'no other preeeptible cause than that
, their physial Vowers, originally vigorous,

might also say insane, battle of life Too

they might.very well ask theraselyes
they should, continue to toil, to specula.tp
`and to rack their brains, when a life of
'coniparative ease and reflection would, in'
all respects, be more becoming. This is.
exactly the question, however, which they
never put.. :,rfhe upshot is well known.
Through sundry real or imaginary entan
glements their clay of safety is past. A

Out of every 000 born hitt 95 wed

Of 1,000 persons who have reachet the•
age of 70 years, 43 will bel clergymen, 40
farmers, 23 workmen, 32 sbidiers; 39 law
yers, 27 professors, 'and 24 doctors, the
rest women' and• men ofvarious calling in
Virtuous men live longer than the die
sipated. Intelectual emplopirent, with
plenty of manual exercise, is conductive.
of health and longevity. .
• The farmer and laboring man would.
live longer if more time were given by
them to mental culture and • more atten
tion to the _laws of health; clergymen
-would add to their days by more 'bodily
exercise and less mental anxiety ; and the
same is true of pro&ssionable men gener
ally. Gluttons dhe young. Fast men
and women do not live out half their
lives. Drunkenness is More . destiuctive
of life now than it was half a century a
go.
Suicide is on the iaerease.
