It ia no simple matter to state in terms at all precise what fotoea are directly connooted with the production of hale and happy old age. More certainly is involvod in the prooeßS than mero strength of constitutions Healthy surroundings, contentment, and active, temperate, and regular habits are most valuable aids. Hard work, so long at least as it is not carried beyond tho limit necossary to permit of the timely repair of worn tissues, is not only harmless, but a conduoivo circumstance. It is, in fact, by living as far as possible a life in accordance with natural law that ivo may expect to reap the appropriate result in its prolongation.
