By LORD SYDENHAM OF COOMBE,
I am eighty-four years of age, and I attribute my long life and general good health to moderation in all things continuous hard work, and many and varied in- terests and studies.
With regard to health I am not a fuddist, possibly because I have never had time to be; but I smoke very little, drink a small quantity with lunch and dinner, and sleep us long as circumstances will allow. Although I am not fussy about my food, I do not eat meat. Fish and poultry, plenty of green vegetables and light egg dishes is the diet which appears to suit me best.
Public service in one form or another has always been of vital. importance to me, but apart from this work there, have always been. many recreations to turn to. Music, painting, and photography, besides literary interests, during the last twenty years. Thus 1 live a full and industrious life, and keep a mind which is fresh and receptive to now ideas.
To sum up, in my opinion the best reelpo for a long and happy life is to work hard and always, and by devoting your mind to public interests provent concon- tration upon yourself.
