"Whon was in the carly twenties,
said Mr. Eu4ync Coffin of Albany, u
worked in a shop devoted to the manufac-
ture OF mathematical instruments and in
hailed so much fine brass dust that my
lungs became seriously affected and my
whole system seemed undermined. My
doctor told me that ii ! didn't quit the
business I'd make premature trip to the
boneyard and threw in some advice gratis
He said T.e best thing for me to do was to
take up some kind of brass instrument, II
trombone, for instance, and blow it with
great vigor and regularity, 1t would re
pair my damaged lungs and restore the
organs to their normal condition.
"Well, l took his advice and ere long
developed fondncss for all sorts of horn
instruments But, best of all, l found that
what the medical man said in regard TO
the effect of trombone upon my health
was verified. From being an emaciatcd
wreck became the proprietor of a double
chin within two years, and when l paid a
visit 10 the scene Of my old lahors not one
of my former fellow workers knew me. -

Inclu e plain folks like me and you
Is he who boasts that from the time
When he was but "A tender youth
His neighuors all have known him rs
The man who always tells the truth.
Now, truth telling Is very well
If there is any need of it,
But son etimcs people bring out facts
just to give other folks a hit.

But keeping stills no crime, forsoothl
And he who keeps still Far outdoes

Sometimes indeed a little lie
May be excuslblc in part
If it is meant to help IA friend
Or save him from an aching heart.
But truthful things said just to hurt
Are always hateful and uncpUth.

How a conq ror's plans l thwarted and his

Blessed me for my deadly poison, drew me

themselves in danger of going over the
banking. Riding easily, and with the
precision of a machine, Frazier slipped
through every tight place, and shot his
bolt as the bell rang for the last lap, and
just after gaining the lead on the lower
turn. He went away as easily as though
his opponents were backpedaling, and kept
lap in spite of all the efforts to head him
off.
Schlueter made a last desperate effort to
catch him as they swung into the stretch,
but Frazier gained at every turn of the
wheels and crossed the tape, smiling back
over his shoulder at his crestfallen oppo-
nents. Schlueter was second and Cowell
third. The time, 9:02, was fast consider
ing the nature of the track and the weather.
Frazier rides like a veteran, and it is said
that he is a Canadian, who has recently
arrived on the coast. He is certainly able
to make the cracks ride to the extent of
their ability, for in beating Schlueter he
defeated one of the Acme's best men.
