Tom Hood cast epigrams at himself
In the face OF death. His wife was
preparing a large mustard plaster to
apply to his shrunken chest. my
dear" said Hood, that's a terrible lot
OF mustard for small piece of beef"
Sir Walter Raleigh expressed him
self In similar mood after he mount
ed the scaffold. Feeling the edge Of
the ak, he said to the executioner,
This is a sharp medicine. but it is n
cure for all diseases.
An italian nobleman, probably be-
guiled by patent medicine advertise
ments, left this inscription for his
gravestone: 81 was well, wanted to be
better, took physic and died"

owner and his family and all the
household parasites pellmell, leaving
the drivers in possession, but the
mother and father Of the family, when
they recovered from this unwonted
burst Of activity, showed such lively
concern and such unmlstakable signs
Of anguish at having left something
behind them in the hut that thought
II must be the baby. Tnshim far cor
ner for foorp shrieked the distracted
parents, and into that hut | charged.
TOO true! There in the corner lay
the poor little thing, a mere inert
black mass with hundreds OF cruel
drivers already swarming upon 1t. To
seize It and give 1t TO the distracted

Now, you lads who want to leave
school. don't be In such a hurry to be
earning something. Think of the fu-
ture Vspect rather than the present
advantage. The man who can do
something really well, whether it be
the making Of a table, the building Of
a house or the writing of a book. will
very seldom be unemployed. 1t is the
boys in hurry who are '1ittle mil
lionaires" on s shilllngs a week at
fourteen and "big loafers" on nothing
at eighteen, with no trade In their
fingers and no prospect but the life of
day laborer. Go slowly, boys--you'll
go farther. Hurry is dog that often
goes Off on wrong scent. Patience
and foresight are two dogs which hunt
together. They are slow at finding"

Amateur Scribes Meet.

Milwaukee, Wis, July Editors
and contributors to amateur periodi-
calls are beginning to arrive in Mil
waukee today to take part in the con-
vention Of the National Amateur Press
Association, which will be held in this
city during the next few days. While
most of the delegates are youngsters
there is sprinkling of older men and
women who beginning their literary
careers as amateur journalists have
since become professional newspaper
workers or have attained success in
other lines. There is every prospect
that this will be the most successful
national gathering of the scribes since
the birth Of the organization 80 years
ago.
