They think nothing of living to be one hundred and ten or one hundred and twenty years old and continue to marry at the age of seventy-fiv- e or eighty. A happy and contented people, member of tills tribe are supposed to be descendants of the ancient Chaldeans and revert back to tribes of the earliest civilizations, says the Life Extension Institute's monthly journal, llow to Live. Those of the Tibet tribe live in the mountainous regions in the winter and go to the tropical valleys In the summer to gather their harvests. According to the and Dr. explorers, Miss Cossley-Blat- t Irwin Baird, the most striking thing about these people Is their happy viewpoint on life and the apparent complete absence of the tension and strain, worry and fear that tend to shorten the life span of modern Europeans and Americans. m m am fcrt IM .VI SI V an m fl H m m ii M H BUY THE FAMOUS SLUMBEROX MATTRESS NOW AT REDUCED PRICES!

Protection of birds should be almost instinctive on the part of the farmer, says a bureau of biological survey bulUsefulness of Birds on the letin, Farm. When one kind of Insect becomes so numerous In a region as to threaten the wholesale destruction of vegetation, birds, as a rule, congregate there and live largely on the insects. Not only that, but the everyday services of birds in consuming Insects of all kinds and holding back the threatening tide of Insect life, says the bulletin, are probably of even greater significance. t Good Word for Blue Heron Great blue herons and other birds have been given a clean bill of health by the biological survey, which definitely has proved the birds get only a small proportion of game or commercial fish and prey on ths enemies of spawn to a sufficient extent to make them more beneficial than harmful Examination of stomachs of birds Indicate that yellow perch, catfish, suckers, minnows, sticklebacks and the like kinds of fish were taken more frequently than trout or other game fish. The birds also eat dragon-fllarvae, predacious diving beetles and other types of Insects harmful to young fry. fish-eati- y Tree Adopt Temple In the dense forests of French a there Is a temple which has stood for many centuries.
