MAN IS YDUNb UNMISIN Woman Likewise Is in Ripe Middle Age After 50. Say Physicians. , NEW YORK, May 27.- The Medico- Legal society, which met at the Wal dorf-Astoria, set the ninetieth year of life as the beginning of old age. Up to that time, it was declared, man lived in ripe middle age. and that at 50 years of age a man had 40 years of activity and productiveness in store. The subject under discussion was Longevity and Old Age." The specific statement to this effect ■ tnan does not need to grow old until Io has reached the age of 90"—was V om )>y Dr. I L. Nasher, and a num bo- of lite other speakers agreed with him. Why limit it to 90?” asked Dr. Clark , Hell. the secretary of the society, who i: So years old himself, and a teething infam to hear him tell of it. ■Will, say 95 then," replied Dr. Nash er. and Dr. Bell thought that would be about right. I It’s AH Auto Suggestion. The set tel whereby any one may re main young until he has lived four -core years and, ten —twenty years longer than is set down by the Bible— is a simple one. as it was given by the various speakers last night. In the first place, they said, you are going to live no longer than you think you will live. If you look forward to 50 or 60 on this planet, at the end of that time you will be prepared for the next one. It is J wholly a matter of auto suggestion. Live the simple life. Taking ihe I view that you are going to live to be SO. ; 90 or even 100, don't try to accomplish your life's work in 40 or 50 years. Do it gradually and avoid unnecessary I strain upon your vitality. Dr. William Benham Snow. Miss Jes sie Fowler and Dr. Charles F. Mills in dorsed the views of those who put for ward the suggestion. The problem was exemplified by Dr. Cecile L. Greil, medical director of the Manhattan Trade School for Girls, who i itc<3 her own life as an illustration of how a woman, at least, may rernafti young. She Plans to Reach 80. I v, as married when I was sixteen." -he said, "in the course of time I be anie the mother of three children, and w hih I intended to carve out a career for myself at some time—which, I think, every woman should do—l exerted my every effort to my children. I took them to the park, and while they played I studied. Eventually I went to college. Today, at 40. I am ready to begin my > more serious work in life. I feel 1 am going to have 4(1 years for that. Yes. I know I am. I am going to live until I am 80. anyway." v. 54t's- Eleanor Gt idk’y, of Chicago, said tftat while every woman dreads old age she is the very one who sets up the monster that gives her so much * fear. "Thinking of old age brings it on,” said Mrs. Gridley, "if a woman w;ho becomes blessed with grandchildren would look upon the name of grand mother as meaning GRAND mother. In stead of an ancestor of the second gen eration. she would experience less dis t ress. • “To keep young, seek the company of the young: think of youthful things: , ignore old age. and lead the simple life. ] Always have in view the old adage. 'A man is as old as he feels.' It refers to women, too.” HOTEL AND HOMES BURN AT FORSYTH; DAMAGE IS $11,000.00 FORSYTH. GA.. May 27.

May 27.- The London so cial season has opened in real ear nest. It promises to be of quite excep tional interest. For the first time In three years London is herself. In 1910 all festivities were precluded by the national mourning. Last .year the cor onation broke in upon the course of entertainments, and owing to the prep arations for it the capital assumed the aspect of a gigantic builders' yard, so that those who knew London best might search in vain among the mazes of barricades, platforms and stands for familiar views and objects. <>n this oc casion the royal family will he free to take their customary commanding part in our social life. The king will motor down to Newmarket today to open the racing week at that famous center, and later In the season the king and queen will entertain at Windsor castle for Ascot. An unusually heavy program of events has been arranged. Besides the horse show and the naval and mili tary tournament, there will be the in ternational flower show at Chelsea, which has been organized on a scale to eclipse everything of the kind accom plished in the past and which is to be visited by the king and queen. There will be throe exhibitions in full swing, offering varied attractions to the sight seer. Summer Grand Opera. There will be two opera houses giv ing grand opera, for the first time in the modern history of social London, and the Russian ballet will make its appearance at Covent Garden in June. The great sporting event of the sea son will unquestionably be the three cornered battle between the English, Australian and South African cricket teams, with its nine test matches, in which the prospects of England are particularly bright. Thus everything promises a brilliant and prosperous season, provided always that the labor giant does not show itself ill-humored and rests content with the victories it has won in the past twelve months.

When he said that ihe luncheon was nothing more than an 'outbreak of folly.’ he did not know what he was talking about. He has intimated strongly that we are lacking tn intelligence because on that special occasion we engaged in a little fun. "For instance, take, the case of Mrs Arthur L.

Mi. and Mrs. Holland I, have done great good for the poor; she is a member of manv-charitable organ izations. and when criticism is heaped upon a woman of bier character, and ministers, cranks, taike the time to do the criticising, something should be done. I "I am really beginning to believe that ministers do this sort of thing to get their names in print.

Indeed, should such a fuss be raised because we lunched with our dogs'?, There are cer ■ tain women who do nothing but care . for their fads. It is unjust for him to > associate our names with this set. "Dr. Hillis is even heaping .criticism ■ on oil'- ancestors. He is making indi vidual attacks upon the women who wore present at that luncheon, and it is surprising to what depths the ministers of the Gospel will stoop in order to enjoy a little cheat) notoriety by mak ing ridiculous statements In the public i press. It would bo more beneficial for the community at large- if these disei- I pies of Jesus Christ would confine ; themselves to promulgag ing the teach . ings that they are bestter versed in than criticising the members of our ■ fashionable set.
