but a few weeks since a prominent Yale professor suggest ed to insurance men that human life might be lengthened materially if proper steps were taken The hint was one that had com mercial value to the men addressed as will readily appear ifa little thought is given to it The officials of the New York health department have just made some comparisons of the conditions in that city in 1908 and those that eXIsted in 1898 One of the things discovered was that fewer children under 5 years of age died in the city in 1908 than in 1898 although the total population has increased by over 1000000 in the decade The exact figures are for 1898 25499 for igoSj 24 MO A table showing deaths at 25 35 55 65 75 and 85 indicates that there has been a notable shrinking in the number of deaths at each point except the last two For illustration At25 in 1898 there were 6673 deaths as against 3206 in 1908 The other points indicate like gains At 85 however 904 died in the last year and 762 in 1898 At 75 there were 2727 deaths in 1898 and 3175 in 1908 A com parison of death rates show that in 1898 it was 1928 and in 1908 it was 1652 The health officials believe that the statistics prove that life is being lengthened as a result of their cam paign This has secured greater vigilance on the part of the author ities and more knowledge among the Particularly in the case of tuber culosis there has been marked There is reason for great satisfaction with is being made Iff PghlTng this Tw importance of the observance of simple rules of health has generally recognized The git of than Si V by Mrs W K Vandcrbilt Sr for t the construction of sanitary tene meats for people afflicted with tuber culosis is reported These will be conducted in con nection with a hqspifal which has been meeting with steady success in handling cases ot this disease- It is not exactly a charity It is believed that the returns from the investment of funds will show a sat isfactory income even with rentals low and favors shown to those who need a certain kind of care There arc people who are dispos cd at times to make light of the ac tivities of those who arc pushing the fight against the tuberculosis peril But the statistics that arc being published from time to time appear to bear out the claim of these for health that steady gains arc being made That a woman of wealth should be willing to set aside a million dol to help a good cause along is encouraging That the compara figures for a decade apart prove that life is being prolonged is even more gratifying h Some Great Catastrophes It is the general opinion that earthquakes constitute the most ter vnblc of the worlds catastrophes both as regards loss of life and oi property says an Eng lash writer This however is not so The convulsion in southern It aly killed not less than 200000 peo 1 and in this respect it is easily ft the most dreadful occurrence of Its v kind historic Lisbon earth quake which ranks next below it in l regard to the number of fatalities about 50000 deaths in that ps pe alone and about an equal jJKnurnber elsewhere The South f S American one of 1867 was responsi ble for 30000 That which de ssfroycd Aleppo in 1822 slew

annoying as a tickling wheezing bronchial cough The quickest relief comes perhaps from a prescription known to Druggists ev erywhere as Dr Shoops Cough Rem edy And besides it is so thoroughly harmless

all dealers Foods for the Gouty Doctor Haig of London who has attained eminence in the treatment of certain diseases came to his of the uricacid causation of many of neuralgia rheumatic pains gouty twinges and headache as a result of observation on himself During his student and early professional days he suffered horribly fmm periodical hejd evci in conaequenx thiii Herexperimentcd with all sorts of drugs and modes of living finally discovered that the less meat he ate the less headache he had and he found further that the oct urrcucexjf headache was marked by a simultaneous excretion of a amount of acid From these two facts he conclud ed that the headache was due to the presence of uric acid In the bipod and that the presence ot uric acid in the blood was due to meateating From this beginning was developed a complete system of dietetics hav ing for its object the exclusion of all uncacidcontaining foods since if uric acid is really the cause of these troubles no permanent relief can be expected so long as fresh quantities of the offending poison are thrown into the system every day Man is naturally a fruitandvege tablccating animal he believes and must return to his original diet as the only means to his sanitary In other words Doctor Haig is a vegetarian but a peculiar kind of one for he does not allow all vegetable foods by any means Beans and other pulse are forbidden since their protein is readily convertible into uric acid and especially docs he eschew and coffee their alkaloidal caffeine being practically the same chemically as uric acid The diet of one who would avoid becoming a subject of the uricacid diathesis or who hirasclt from the pains of the already existing condition must therefore consist almost entirely of breadstuff and cereals puddings fresh and dried fruits nuts and the milk pro ducts Water is the only beverage allowed It is a meager diet and must be more or less monotonous it is not always effic acious in curing periodical and other supposed manifesta tions ot the uricacid diathesis An occasional course of it and a habit ual more or less close approach to it are no doubt of great benefit to the general health but one must not forget that many of the ills credited to uric acid may be a direct result of eyestrain to be relieved more by glasses than by diet He is a dangerous man who spends much of his time drawing fine

to D vii Cave we strolled back to Hale s Mill and there were thr guests of Ar thur Ycaryin We spent the evening scmicircled around his burning hack log and foresticks where he anti the llalslcys told us ninny of the inter sting tales and traditions of Christian In the meantime they also decided to join us on our visit to Pilot Rock Nothing could huve pleased us more It was midnight before we knew it and long after midnight before we retired I might also remark that it was long before daybreak when we started on our trip the next morning Our crowd consisted of Henry C and William H Arthur and Walter Yeargin and yours As Arthur stepped up to his buggy 1 noticed him earning a large well filled basket and a gallon jug Altho I felt I knew what their contents might be I nevertheless smilingly remarked Whats that and re ceived the brief but pleasant answer Lunch Then I thought to my self a word to the wise or sufficient and what a novel it will be to cat a snack and take a sip on top of Pilot Rock It is twelve miles from Mill to Pilot Rock When we came within six miles of our destination an insignificant looking elevation against the horizon was pointed out to me as being the object of our visit After listening to considerable explanation I finally came to the conclusion I was looking at the designated spot L of course felt disappointment ver me Nevertheless I was somewhat consoled for I bore in mind the fact that we were carrying a genuine old Kentucky lunch with us By the time we had gotten within about two miles of the Rock my seeming prospects of disappoint ment had grown beyond endurance So I pulled back on the reins and when our flying machine came to a halt I informed the crowd that I had seen enough of Pilot Rock to atisfy me and also enough to dis satisfy me I proposed we return back to the town at Carl and there on the site of the once famous Win D Fergusons store indulge in lore and lunch But my suggestion did not meet with their approval They repeated that no man unless he had actually been on the Rock could form any idea of its powers Being confident the basket and jug would prove no disappointment even if old Pilot did I cheerfully consented to stick to the crowd and the lunch As we traveled on ward I begun to realize that the nearer we approached the rising ground the larger it seemed But not until we began winding up the eastern slope of this elevation did I begin to form any conception of the area of this hill However as to the much talked of Rock I saw no sicns I doubted more than ever every word told to me its location and its being hidden from sight by the high trees around its base Quite unexpectedly and when my doubts were greatest I chanced to get a glimpse through some of the tall timbers Then for the first time state we started I began to feel that this famous place might after all possibly come up to my expectations In a few moments we were at the foot of Pilot Rock and then like a flesh all my recent of a great disappointment vanished Its sudden appearance and unlooked for proportions took my breath as it were However enough was left to carry me up through one of its two cpnvenient and steplike crevices to the top After we had climbed its full height I was indeed breathless but more from ecstacy than from ex Before us no matter in what direction we gazed lay a green ocean of rolling hills with here and there a higher billow breaking into this motionless skybound scene were its many homes and fields and surrounded by the seemingly endless sea of forests The scene is beautiful It is a climax of everyday nature of home Halsle It otherwise- is exper- Ience to glow regarding suspicions ha stion Scatteredaround islandsthe orchardsall r y i j 7 northeastern truly Haley crawTi ell I i s nature of normal nature of nature a we of the beautiful Green river country or the picturesque Penny royal know it Pikes peak has its abnormally large and barrel Mt Hood its suggestion of perpetual snow and

compared to most things They arc the giants of the earth Birtholdis Statue of Liberty is grand and imposing to all visitor but a Venus or an Apollo is always the source of a never tiring admira tion There is something about the view from Pilot Rock that suggests the scene front Lookout Mountain The Moccascn Curve of the Cumberland liver and the historic battle fields it is true are hire missing still the same something is felt at both of these places a clearer of this peculiar power I will simply call it a harmonious combination of beautiful every day familiar scenery But no matter what this hidden charm may be it is what it is and have ever been on Pilot Rock declare as I have already stated that the scene is beautiful Each season has its own peculiar feature summer its verdure autumn its leaves winter its snow but those who have visited Pilot Rock at ev cry period of the year favor spring For all the lilootnlnK orvhnnU glow AH with n full of HIIO- Wmndi thic trtn tn jfnt Rock I can why any man who has seen it only from a distance can not possibly have a clear conception of its size and the nature of its location From afar the Rock and elevation upon which it rests simply have the ap pearance of an ardinary what higher than those of the sur rounding country The tall trees nearly as high as the almost barren rock stand at its base and from there spread over the hillside Thus the top of the Rock and the top of the trees form what appears to unbroken curved line over the crest of the hill For that reason the Rock is not noticeable in the general outline of the hill viewed from the roads some miles away The day is nqt far oft when nil this timber will be cut away The Rock will then lose much of the beauty of its immediate surround ings but its height and form will be better understood by the mote pro saic who will be contented to sec it from a distance To such passers this cube or die shaped formation on this hill will look like a persimon on a pumpkin a big bump on a a wart on a mans nose or a knot on a log The Rock itself not including its forest covered pedestal is about 150 feet high and more or less cubical The top is a somewhat rough area of nearly an acre on which a few dwarfy trees and shrubs and some clusters of grass are growing All over this surface are evidences of pionic parties and other visitors It is an ideal spot for young lovers Sermons too have been preached on this mount Among those whose names were carved here in olden times and are still well preserved we noticed R L Morris ajid A D Lyell both marked 1849 After spending an hour in silence gazing in every direction and also in scrutinizing the Rock itself we began pointing out and commenting on this that in the distance the places we actually saw and the things we thought we saw William philosophically remarked that a man can see just as far as fie can then some There was much truth in his then some for to the south about eight miles one of us saw

Greenville RKCPRO We saw all these things and even then some In our minds eye we pictured the alternating up heavels and depressions of past ge ological ages changing topography of this neighborhood We saw waves heat and frost and also what might have been glaciers and ice bergs tear down the old rocks while other formations were being built new of sand and clay and of shells and plants We saw old Pilot Ruck resist all wear and tear from the time of its birth in the Period to the present day We also saw basket and jug sitting still untouched on a slab of stone The sight of them convinced us that we had had more than en mental visions for one day and now needed something substan tial for the inner man While the food was being unpacked I suggest ed we begin jug That how ever to my surprise was not agreed upon In the meantime the con tents of our basket was scattered over a table like rock the eggs were fried and the dressed chicken broil ed Every man either useful or useless toward pre
