Due to the Toughening Qualities.

A statistician has found that the average age of men in the past forty years has advanced Ihree years. This is partially due to the toughening qualities in the modern adulteration of foods and liquors. Logwood port wine, molasses whisky, oleomargarine, glucose, ootton oil, and other vegetable and mineral constituents of the refreshment supplies were strangers to the good old times.— Chicago Herald. The most completely lost of all days is the one on which we have not thought.— De Finod.
