The Ameer of Afghanistan has decided to establish a motor-car service between Peshawar and Cabul, a distance of over 200 miles. When old age has really commenced, its march towards final decay is best delayed by attention to those rales of conservation by which life is sustained with the least friction and the least waste. iSome rales given by Dr. Richardson for this purpose are : —To subsist on light, but nutritious diet, with milk as the standard food, but varied according to season. To take food in moderate quantity four times in the day, including a. light meal before going to bed. To clothe warmlv but lightly, so that the body may, in all seasons, maintain its equal temperature. To keep the body in fair exercise, and the mind! active and cheerful. To maintain an l interest in what is going on in the world, and to take part in reasonable labors and pleasures, as though old age were not present. To take plenty of sleep during sleeping hours. To spendi nine hours in bed at the least, and to 1 take care during cold weather that the temperature of the bedroom is maintained at 60 dog. Fahr. To avoid passion, excitement, luxury. It is worry over til© little things, in life that makes a woman old before her time. It's the little annoyances that make the silver locks appear in the hair, the network of wrinkles on the brow. The thousand and one little things that should be passed unnoticed are the things, that send! to an early grave. The wise woman goes thorugh the days with a- smiling face, lets the little annoyances pass by,, and preserves a calm demeanor.
