We were glad to learn Mr. Reynolds’ condition shows considerable im provement. Mr. W. L. Berry returned last week from a visit to his aged moth er in North Alabama. It is unusual ly interesting to learn from the family history that his mother, who is 90 years of age, was born in the house she now lives in and has lived there all her life. Her par ents obtained the tract of land from a squatter 100 years ago and gave in exchange for it 1 1-2 pounds of home-raised tobacco. Mrs. Berry says her mother lived to be 106 years old and her husband 81 years. He says her . mental faculties are per fectly normal, and her ability to re call events of her girlhood is asound ing, and she remembers the family history for several generations back. Her physical condition is as good as her mental condition. She assists with the cooking etc., and even draws buckets of water from an open well and carries them up steps. Am sure every one wonders to what she attributes her good health and longevity, and if we younger people are thus blessed, just what great improvements will be made in living conditions by the time we are near ing the century milestone. I forgot to state an important fact—she is the mother of eleven children.
