In ten thousand breathes enough pure air; nor one in a thousand drinks enough pure water; and nearly all of us eat too much," says Thomas Kane. And yet not one person of Evanston, who at forty-eight was a nervous wreck, and now at the age of seventy-nine writes in the American magazine about how he regained his health and can out-do men of forty-five.
Mr. Kane lays great stress upon deep breathing, and regularly for many years has taken breathing exercises, inhaling deeply and slowly by depressing the diaphragm, repeatedly forcing the inhaled air from the lower to the upper parts of the lungs and back again, and exhaling slowly with lips closed. This is done many times every day, whatever the position or occupation of Mr. Kane may be at the time. Temperate eating, and the drinking of a glass of water, preferably hot, before retiring and before breakfast complete Mr. Kane's prescription for longevity.

Making armour plate is only a small part of the business of a steel company, and there can be no doubt that it can be done more cheaply as one of the side lines of a big industry than as an industry standing alone. How, then, can the government with a special plant for the making of armour plate hope to make plate at a cost anywhere near that at which it can be bought? It cannot. Probably that explains why a provision requiring the keeping of a cost system in the proposed government armour plant was struck from the hill. We are about to see more than eleven millions of the peoples' money wasted.  In playing politics.
