One day the old gentleman's wife

little touched by grief for the aristo-
cratic old fellow, followed at a respect
full distance and did not solicit a penny.
The old gentleman turned upon his tor
turer.
How much nav you collected today,
you old reprobate?" he demanded.

you've never failed to ask me for money
on every possible occasion. Today is

ask me for a cent, and, confound you,

From which each of us can draw his

Seriously, in preparing for a long
distance race, there Is nothing, training
for endurance excepted, subordinate to
persistence and regularity. Monotonous
as it may seem, it is necessary to be
methodical about training. Omit the
usual practise for one day and 1t will
require, maybe. a week to rectify the
omission. Some athletes have no desire
to omit or lump" anything on their
program. and to others training, reg-
ular, m~ethodical training, Is one long
monotonous grind. The latter class
should try to learn to like their work.

irksome. II he Is a square peg in a
square hole, and Is in good health, he
falls in love with 1t. If he is a misit,
he shirks.
In love with his work, he settles
down to a regular, even gait. That
man is bound to come under the tape
a winner. He knows his powers and he
persists. He sticks to one thing and
works not by leaps and bounds, but by
easy progressive stages.
The runner starts the same way,
fresh, strong and reliant. If he Is fit
for the race he soon finds his gait and
her settles down to the regular speed
that %overhauls spasmodic inner and
brings him home first.
This sounds like very sage advice
from a chap in his twenties. You
know the old saying to the effect that
a young man thinks he is all-wise. I

elected mentors of athletics. but the e
are my opinions in regard to long dis
