OFFERED ETERNAL iOUIH, HUT PHIL COOK REFUSED CHANCE OF A LIFETIME Stranger Has New Germ to Stop Old Age. Without an apparent regret. Secre tary of State Phil Uook has deliberately declined to quaff of the "Fount of Eter- nnl Youth,” thereby missing an oppor tunity to make* "She” look like the merest Infant prodigy. For, be It known, that the thing for which Toncc DeLeon pioneered through the wilderness seeking, came to Seere- ; Uook right In Ills oltlce without seeking.

ANARGYROS, Manufacturer •» New York nccourit for the genial sec retary's sidestepping the proposition on the ground that the newly discov ered elixir Is a germ. He dislikes germs. He holds to the opinion that there Is no good In a germ, whatever guise of supposed blessings It may come under. He'll duck n germ any lime, anywhere. So he declined a free administration of the germ of longevi ty. One day recently Secretary Cook was Immersed In a few hundred, letter., nsklng all Imaginable sort of questions. His office Is sort of a clearing house of Information—from the elucidation of the Apoetlea' ‘Creed to the best chill tonic. “Good-morning, sir,” a voice at his elbow snld. The secretory looked up from a re quest for the name of the Justice of the peace in Squash Hollow district In 1847, and saw a well dressed man. "Good-morning. Whnt can I do for you7” asked the secretary. You can do nothing for me. I have come to administer an Inestimable boon on you. sir,” wae the reply. 'So? Well, whnt Is It?” "Life everlasting? I have come to give you the first opportunity to test my great discovery—the germ which will give o man life hero forever. I desired to give It flrst to Governor Smith, but he Is so busy, and uncon scious of what a great boon I wish to offer, so I come to you." "Well, what Is It?" asked the secre tary. getting just a bit nervous. “It Is a germ. Like nil of the great agencies that destroy life, the agency which gives life for nil time Is a sim ple little germ. 1 am Its discoverer, will arrest dissolution nnd keep you where you now are until the Anal trump call. I could administer this germ to the hoi pollol. but It would not benefit me. I want to experiment on some public official." "Where do you keep these germs?” asked Secretary Cook, fencing for time. "Right here." replied the stranger, slapping his chest. "If you take what I have here you will never get a day- olden You will retain the same men tal and physical vigor. You will live thousands upon thousands of years.” By now Secretary Cook was maneu vering for a chance to get where he could dash for the door. If need be, to make sudden retreat. But at this mo ment some one came In and the secre tary turned to the locoed stranger and said: "You call back here, sir, when 1 am not busy, and I wilt talk It over with you.” "Certainly, sir.” was the courteous reply, as the giver of the germ of un numbered years withdrew. "Oee. that wae a close shave," said the secretary. The stranger has never returned, but Secretary Cook live. In mortal dread that ha will, and fore* him to take some of the germs.
