Ever since the days of Adam man
has been in the habit of blaming every
thing wrong to the women. Yet he has
made one notable exception; he made
the devil in his own image with few
extra attachments for good measure.
The dispatches announce the discov-
cry of the n nth pole, by DR.. Cook of
Brooklyn. New York, who has been In
the Attic region for some time. If the
report proves true the question viii
arise. F'What are we going to do with
the pole now we have found it? The
man who will be able to use it to any
advantage viii please stand up. John
Davis was the first man who tried to
discover this useless article. He went
north in 1857 and ever since then num-
erous persons have tried in vain and
753 of them have lost their lives in the
attempt. The largest death rate was
in 1916 when 1876 passed on to the land
of shadow and dreams.
Very few people think it is an es-
tablished fact that the mind controls
the body. 1t follows, il one wishes to
enjoy good health he should think of
healthy things. The mGn who devotes
much time in thinking about sickness
will become sick himself. Therefore it
is the duty of all to assist your neigh
Dor in keeping his mind in a healthy
condition. If he has been i'll and you
meet him on the street, don't say to
him that he looks sick or peaked, as
that is the worst thing you can do. In
stead say, Il am glad to see you look
ing so Welt" That kind of talk will
brace your friend up; he will become
impressed with the thought of health
and as a result he will soon be himself
again, and you will have a sensible act
| to your credit. We have no use for
those who go around looking on the
dark side and everlastingly casting a
shadow of death before them.
believe fellows conscience is a
pretty faithful guide; II he follows
where twould lead him, he won't stray
so very wide. When I'm hustiing for
a living in the city's busy mart, I'm SO
full Of schemes respondent that the
voice down in my heart doesn't nave a
chance to warn me and do some doubt
full tricks, going TO my shack at even
ing feeling sure that m brick. When
mar has nailed some troubles in q
smooth and quiet way he is full Of

bouquet. / have often felt exalted by
my conquest of the PUNK, till shed
my gaudy raiment, and lie down upon
my bunk. Then my good old conscience
prods me, in the silence and the dark,
and it shows me that my doings are the
doing of a shark 1T is better" says
my conscience, holding down the judg-
ment seat, lit is better to be honest,
and barefooted walk the street, than
to count a pile of dollars won by trick

evil.doing I shall never cease to prod.
So my conscience sits in judgment
through the watches of the night, and
in following its lunches / am sure I'm
doing right.

Upon a train or boat
Twas up TO him TO walk or swim
Unless he pawned his coat.
But now at last he spurns the earth
And with running start
Goes gliding Woodward like a man
Who thought himself so sEart.
