ormerly would have
been thought fabulous. This assertion will probably be received by you
with an incredulity, which will not be diminished when I add that,
notwithstanding the great increase in man's years, all his faculties are
preserved in a state scarcely less perfect than that of pristine

and waste of vital force by which disease is preceded, accompanied, and

of the employment of all in congenial occupations, and the contentment
