One Way of Pairing OF.

A number Of years ago, at a small
town in Maine, an important local
election was to take place, and there
was strong rivalry between the Re
publicans and Democrats Old Hiram
Morse, the blacksmith was strong
Democrat, but many of The farmers
were Republicans.
On the morning of the election a
farmer came in to have his horse
shod. The blacksmith said to him:
We're both busy. You're a Republi-
can and I'm Democrat. Let's pair
of. Well neither of us vote, and it
will amount to the same as if we both
went to the polls"
This was agreed upon. After cleo
ton it was found out that Morse had
paired off with five Republican farm.

VITALITY THE MAIN THING.
He Who Has 1t Pulls Through, the
Other Patient Dies.

He Who Has 1t Pulls Through, the
Other Patient Dies.
Two men undergo operations of the
same character in hospital. The
same surgeon does the work The
conditions are identical. Equal care
is exercised in each operation and
each is successfully performed Yet
one man RECEIVERS, the other dies. Or
there is a tremendous business pres
sure which does not let up for months.
1t puts the men under a terrible
strain. One man goes to pieces and
his business is wrecked. He cannot
keep the pace; he loses control of
himself Ills rival has no better brains
than he--perLaps not so good-yet he
pulls through successfully. We say
that there is q difference in vitality,
that one man has more of it than the
other
once saw a man in a hospital who
was suffering from five fatal diseases
and yet he word not die. He had keps
on living year after year in epite u
everything. He refused to eMccUnb.
We find the same thing illustrated
every day. In a shipwreck there are
men who seem to give up their lives
without struggle, without any power
to resist; others cling to an open raft
for days without food, almost frozen,
constantly whipped by the waves, but
for some reason or other they survive.
The vitality In them is strong.
Notice how rapidly and surely one
man RECEIVERS himself after nervous
breakdown, while another drags along
through years of semi-invalidism. No
tice the results upon two men of a
long cold drench Of rain. One of them
comes down With pneumonia, the 9th
er suffers no i'll effects. How is it to
be explained?
He has reserve somewhere an
inner power of resistance; an ag-
gressive something that will not be
downed-we call it vitality. A man
can't have a more valuable asset than
that. It means joy instead of dumps,
success instead of failure, JOY, per-
haps, instead of death. = Worlds
Work.
