The people and their customs are very unlike those in any other part of the world— the ‘* off-island part,” as the Nantucketersare wont to call it. They know but little about the new-fangled manners and methods of modern social life. They follow the beaten paths of a century ago, live simple, thrifty, laborious lives, and furnish little business for the doctors. A visitor at an evening gathering on the island, not long since, tells how one lady, aged ninety- one, presided at the piano, and another, aged eighty-five, danced. ‘*And you may take my word for it,” adds the visitor, ‘* that the dancing was sure-enough dancing, if one might judge from the lady's snapping eyes, nervous speech, and de- cisive character. Locality and climate would seem to have com- paratively little effect on health and longevity if people lived simply, as nature dictates, and when ailing, built up with nature’s simple remedies, like Warner's Log Cabin Sarsaparilla, instead of pulling down the system by using poisonous mineral drugs. People who hasten to the physician every time they have a headache, or experience any of the minor evidences of nature's sure revolt against dis- obedience of her laws, will not be found dancing at eighty-five. The mineral poisons of the apothe- cary lead to early physical decay. The long-lived, rugged Nantucketers, who en- joy life’s pleasures when octogenarians, illustrate what the ‘off-island” portion of the world may experience if they live by nature's law and use old- fashioned log-cabin remedies of roots and herbs for the ordinary ills that flesh is heir to.
