Electrified advances along the
paths of life seemed the rule rather
than the exception with Hero Day
and Dick Montgomery. One day
they were with no other shelter
than the azure skies, while the
next would find them comfortably

uratively speaking. 1t is about
this twain that / elect to write
about in conformity with the ex.

sanctum-incidently from several
admirers of my intellectual ascend
ency in the realms of truthful mar
rations.
! Just how it happened is imma-
terial, but as rays of the blessed
sunshine streamed thru the open
door of number 1862, Hero Day
awoke and clambered out of the
box car. Dick had already pre-
ceeded Hero, and as the latter
spied the former he opened the

and, looking around, | quickly
changed my mind about dropping
There, within ten feet of the tree

about fourteen feet long, six feet
high and legs larger than an ele-
plants. He had snout like a
tapjr, his feet we're yard long and
a foot wide and armed with power,
full c.aws. And his il was over
two feet in diameter and eight feet
.ong. He was digging at the root
of a tree, throwing out as much
dirt as small road scraper with
one stroke of his powerful front
paw.
Evidently my CONSERVATION was

from several nearby trees, that
we're the next thing to a laugh.
And very soon [ saw an animal
quite like myself hanging from a
branch directly above the monster.
With another scream it dropped

a short distance and stopped and
made faces at the monster as he
raised up on his launches, sup
porting himself with his tail, to
look around to see what had dis
turbed him. Then the daring one
turned around and made face at

are at fault, when there is so
much to think Of. There are
millions of ideas yet to be born to
come to us. There are millions of
years yet to live. 1t may not be
on this earth, but we shalf live
somewhere. The grave is the lock
which must be opened before we
touch or enjoy the treasures be-
yond it's dark keeping-before We
90 to the punishments or rewards
we plan for in this world. And
there is much to think of which
concerns this life. As you are as
a boy, SO will you be as man,
Walter. AS you are here as a man,
SO will you be there as a living
man. The golden crop cannot be
garnered till after the grain has
been sown. The impression cam
not be read till after the type is
set in order. And how the errors
show in the proof.
You cannot be man unless in
boyhood you decide to be one.
People seldom blunder on success
as blind pig falls into a we'll.
Stones do not Of themselves turn
up as you pass by to reveal the
wealth hidden under them. Men
do not often succeed by chance.
This world was not made by chance.
It was made for a purpose. Men
are made, and it takes years to
make them. In all sorts of trials,
all kinds of troubles-under many
trying circumstances the lessons
of life are learned, and they all
benefit us, if we will heed them.
If you would succeed as man, you
must try to excel as boy.
Think! That is the word. Know
that a rowdy boy makes a loafer.
That an idle boy makes black
guard. That careless boy makes
poor man. That a poor man is
a slave. Think what others have
done, who went bravely forth with
good object in view to accom-
plish, and that it is in your power
to do still better than others have
done. if you will. Think that
you will some day be man, and
called upon to take an active part
in life's battles. You will either
lead or be led. 1t lies in you to
decide which. Wrinkles creep
over the face never to go off. Habits
silently but surely creep into your
spirit, and you cannot get rid Of
them. You will some day be a
man. Think whether you will be
a voter all your life, or be voted
for. Whether you will please
those who bid, or bid those you
please. Whether you will be
fretful, dlsagreeable old man whom
every one will. wish Dead or re-
spectacle old gentleman whose
grave will be watered with tears
whose kind words and smiles will
be missed-whose precepts or ex-
amples will be loved and copied.
Think of all these things my boy.
It is very easy, but uncomfort-
able to be poor man. All you
have to do is to work hard and
never think. Work hard andspend
foolishly at card-tables and in
flush. Marry in haste and repent
at leisure.
Slide down Hill a minute, and
walk back day, drawing your
sled after you. If you are poor,
run in debt and remain poor. It
you have wife and are in debt,
keep a hired girl. If in debt with
nothing to do, keep two servant
girls. If very poor and in debt,
keep two servant-girls and dog.
