We will introduce you to the oldest one first. Her name iB Mies Jessie Russell, and she Jives near the City of New York, in , America* She waa born in London in 1787. aud is therefore 105 years old. She remem! I bers many incidents of her ohildhood, and etui has t.aces of her foimer beauty. Her i eyes arc bright, and beoome animated when J she talks. She retains her mentat faculties I completely. She descends two flights of stsua to every meal, and returns without ' ossisianoe. Up to three years ago, she was j a regular attendant at the Greenwood Bap* tist Church. Her eight is excellent, and she reads the newspapers every day, and takes great interest in the news from England. ' She has never had any severe illoees in her lire, and her appetite and digestion aro almost as good as they were fifty years ogo. iho second woman says: "Ever since I j was a child I have suffered from illness. j lhiiteen years ago a tired, languid, and j heavy feeling oame over mr.

"«!»«»• Why do we put these three women iu a group — the one vcneiable woman in America and the two others here m England ?

We should agree with her m that opinion, for ft remedy that will in a few weeks put an end tea case of chronic indigestioh and dyspepsia is certainly worth a-good word or two. Now here you have these three English. Women., one W6B 80 forfanftte a« to have

lived more than a century without an illness ; the others (still more fortunate) have known the sadness of suffering and the pleasure of recovery, Oh, my I oh, my 1 how hard it is to tell who is best off in this queer world.
