e many OF you mere VINO rehilze that
there are thousand wrong roads, bul
only one right one, and | take il for
granted that you have come in to ask
which one 1t is. Here is one road that
opens widely, but have not much faith
Ia IL. There are great many expensive
tollgates scattered all along that way.
Indeed at every rod you must pay in
tears, or pay in fagellations. On that
road, If you get through it at all, you
have to pay your own way, and since
this differs 30 much from what have
heard In regard to the right way, be-
liove it is the wrong way.
Here is another road. On either side
Of it are houses of sinful entertainment,
and invitations to come In and dine and
rest, but from the looks of the people
who stand on the piazza | am very GER
tain that it is the wrong house and the
wrong way. Here is another road. II

horses hoofs clatter and ring, and they
who ride over 1t spin along tho highway
until suddenly they find that the road
breaks over an embankment, and they
try to halt. and they saw the bit In the
mouth Of the fiery steed and cry "Whoa!
whoar But II is too late, and-crash!--

THE ApprAN WAY.
You have heard OF the Appian WAY.
