But no, Jack Hawthorne had not lost
his most precious possession of all: the
heroic blood that courses in his veins.
Heroic blood it was that prompted both
him and private Bolts at the same in
slant to jump up and rush forward with
such alacrity in the face of almost GER
tain death
All the world knows the name of this
young fellows grandfather, Nathaniel
Hawthorne, author of the Scarlet Let
ter and 1.-THE Marble Faun," master
pieces of English literature. but who
has heard of Bolts, the unromantic cog
nomen of the youngsters equally brave
companion? What forefathers have
handed down to him the blood from
which heroes are made?
HEROISM is IN THE BLOOD.
BLOOD will tell" is an axiom that in
all the ages has never been gainsaid. Ev-
cry man who does a brave, heroic act
carries within his veins a quality of blood
that urges and sustains him. No matter
whether he inherits it from long line of
famous ancestors or from the sound and
healthy constitution of his immediate pa
rents. whose only distinction is honorable
toll and a simple, virtuous life.
1t matters little where or how you OBJ
tain it, but it matters all the world that
by some means you possess good blood.
Good blood is first, last and always the
making of manly men and womanly wo-
men. 1t is the source of all courage, Vir-
tue and happiness.
4 CAN A MAN MAKE HIMSELF A
HERO?
"a mans first duty" said Henry Ward
Reecher, in a grand sermon on human
DEVELOPMENT lis to be a good animal"
A man may himself begin the rehabili-
tation of his physical powers, laying the
foundation of his own manliness and of an
inheritance for those who come after him
more precious than fine gold and rubies.
Men and women who are sick, wretched
and incapacitated for their full share in
the daily, hourly struggle for existence,
ought to carefully determine whether or
not their mental, moral and physical fac
ulties may be improved and advanced
surely to a higher and nobler plane.
WHY PEOPLE DESPAIR.
In the depth of sickness and wretched-
ness. men feel that their days of courage
and usefulness are ended, women feel
that they will never more be equal to the
duties and burdens that come upon a wife
and mother: but too often this sad con-
clusion. and the deep and hopeless des-
pondency that accompanies it. are entirely
erroneous.
1t comes because manly mentality
and wonanly courage have been sap
ped and undermined by the subtle, dis
integrating poison of physical debility
and mal-nutrition The spirit ceases to
be willing because the flesh is weak;
the blood is impoverished, the nutritive
Mowers depleted 1t Is BY overcoming
| these physical disabilities and restoring
the forces OF nutrition to full and com
plete vitality that DR.. Pierce's wonderful
Golden Medical Discovery gives back
10 men and women their true birthright
of hopefulness, endurance and heroism.
