the people We're talking about every
thing else but the disease. lIo was
much pleased with the situation. but
said the mast outrageous reports had
obtained circulation along the line Of

Mans life is full of crosses
and temptations. He comes in.
to the world without his con-
sent, and goes out of it against
his will, and his trip between
the two eternities is exceeding.
ly rough. The rule of contra.
ries is one of the most impor.
tant features of the trip. When
he is little the girls ike him.
If he raises large family he is
called a poor man, but if he
raises a small check he is a thief
and fraud. If he is poor he is
a bad manager; if he is rich he
is dishonest; if he is in politics
he is in for pie; if he is out of
politics you can't tell where to
place him, and he is no good to
his country; if he does an act of
charity its for policy; if he
won't give to charity he's stingy
and lives only for himself; if he
