The Parting Word.

How tenderly we cherish the parting
words Of those dear to us How men,
ory fingers over them, and our hearts
rejoice as we recall the words of affec-
tlon and help! Bitter indeed are the
regrets If words were left unsald which
might have cheered and comforted the
loved one, and we fain would live over
Just one day that each moment might
be laden with tenderness and sympathy
and love. We lay flowers on the grave,
and every word of unkindness that
gave pain to the one sleeping there
rises In Judgment against us: while
every word of love, of help, of cheer,
comes back laden with sweetness and
inspiration, vylng In beauty with the
flowers we have strewn upon the grass
covered mound. Precious heritage is
the memory of kindly words and deeds
as we near the borderland Of life. The
'inasmuch as We did 1t" will gild the
evening of life with the beauty of the
setting sun and the glory of the resur-
rection morn.

former journey the best day was only
eighty-twO miles.
Weston's stride Is almost shuttle
He takes two or three steps of ordi-
nary length and then falls into dog
trot. But it is not a dog trot. 1t is
little trick to relieve the strain upon
the leg muscles. And 1t gets him over
the ground amazingly fast. He walks
with as little effort as possible, leaning
slightly forward and frequently zig
tagging. At times he Is apparently
forced onward by his weight, falling
from one foot to the other without visi-
BILE effort.
Weston gives this advice to young
men: Don't smoke cigarettes smoke
cigars or pipe if you must. Eat
prunes daily; take cold sponge bath
each morning; walk to and from
work; don't keep late hours, IL Won
would be old and feel a youth. When
l left Portland to begin my walk the
future oppressed me. 1 had task to
