Give Him a Chance.

Why are the witless born to wealth,
While true worth in povertyS gown,
Vainly striving to win success,
Meets only the cold worlds frownG
The man of knowledge, you pass him by
You care not whittier he goes, :.
While the witless fool is met with smile
Just for the cut of his clothes.
TITS SO hard for the rich to stoop from
their throne.
To acknowledge a poor mans worth,
But If he had million or two
He'd be the salt of the EARTH
The polished rogue in Pullman train
May sit by the rich mans side,
While honesty, consulting his pocketbook
Second class Is doomed to ride. lI.t.
The best men our land has given to us,
Whose names we are proud to own,
Having gained the hilltops of success,
BY their knowledge are truly known.
Poor boys at the start, they have strug-
gled on,
Bound to win or die in the fight;
These are the men we honor to-day,
Who have given our country light,
Light and knowledge and noble deeds,
Written down, on history's page;
Their names recalled with honest pride,
Though many have passed from life's
stage.
So give a poor lad a chance in the strife,
Just help him to win in the race;
When you see him striving so valiantly,
Chances are he'll come out first place.

HOW TO LIVE LONG.
Some Simple Rules Laid Down by
New York Physician.

A famous New York physician, now
hale and handsome at rs, sums up his
half century of medical practice and
observation in these simple rules of
health: Be temperate in all things,
in matters of amusement or study as
we'll as in regard to foods and drinks
To be temperate in all things, how
ever, does not imply that one must be
a prohibitionist about anything. Don't
be afraid to go to sleep, for sleep Is
the best restorer of wasted energies.
sleep a certain number of hours every
night and then remember that short
nap during the day is safe rejuve-
nator than a cocktail. Don't worry
either about the past or the future.
To waste single hour in the regret
full past Is as senseless as to send
good money after that which is ir'
revocably lost. -Pittsburg Dispatch

SAVED FROM CURTAIN LECTURE.
Husband We'll Knew the Weak Point
of His Loved One.

II heard w. X. Vanderbilt talk the
last time was abroad" said Pitts.
burg man. at was at the Grand
hotel In Rome, and Mr. Vanderbilt
dined at the table next to mine. He
had just returned from long trip in
a motor car and his talk, naturally,
dealt with motoring in the main.
"Mr Vanderbilt said that there
were a good many points and woes In.
cidental to motoring. Most OF them,
though, could be avoided by good
management He said he knew
man who had started with friend
on weeks tour in big car and they
had stayed two weeks because they
enjoyed themselves so much.
When finally they got back to
town it was a Monday night and very
late. Mr. Vanderbilt's friend, timid
about his reception, went home and
his wife received him as coldly as he
had expected she would do. What he
dreaded, though, was an explosion
an hours wild scolding and upbraid'
ing AS he talked he tried to think
of some way to escape this explosion
and finally an idea came to him.
II am so glad to be back here with
you, dear he said. But pity Smith.
Poor old Smith,
What is the matter with Smith ?
said the lady sharply.
All, poor fellow said her hus-
band AT this moment his wife is
giving him the very old deuce
1.-THE lady's manner softened. That
willy speech got her husband off. She
would not show herself common
scold, like Mrs. Smith"
