usual this season as result of having
received many inquiries and requests
to do so. This will be good news to
many local patients who have been
anxious to take treatments. Some OF
these inquiries are doubtless due to
the fact that the Seaboard Air Line is

WHEN PERIL COMES.
Sudden and Extreme Danger the
Test OF True Courage.

Sudden and Extreme Danger the
Test of True Courage.
It Is when the unexpected happens
that fatallsm proves how fragile a prop
1t Is, after all, for human courage. The
soldier or the sailor can say to himself
when he knows that he must take a
supreme risk In battle or in n storm
~ am powerless against the fate which
was decreed for me from the beginning
of the world. II my time has come, /
cannot help II; IL not all the forces of
earth and sky and ocean cannot prevail
TO harm me-" But when without an in.
stants warning rock crashes through
a ships bottom and the waters rush
into the gap, when confusion seizes the
entire company aboard, when the fog is
too thick for the captain to be seen or
the roar of the sea browns the sound Of
his orders a new test Is applied. Then
1t is that the courage which rests on
nothing tirmer than a negation gives
way, and in his greed to save his own
life the stole becomes as a madman.
There have been steamship disasters
in which men of humble station, Of ali
colors and faiths, have shown the finest
quality of heroism, and there have been
those in which the common sailors, all
whites and Europeans, have earned
eternal disgrace by their cowardlce.
The point we are making is not that It
is possible to draw a hard and fast line
between one religion and another or
one race and another in the matter Of
bravery, but that the affirmative sense
of responsibility for ones own acts, OF
the difference between right and wrong
between nobility and ignomlny and Of
the grandeur of duty well done at the
sacrifice of self Is far surer depend
ence in the presence of sudden peril
than all the stolcal philosophers ever
worked out by the mind Of man.
