WALK LIKE a MAN.
You have noted how the village
ne'er-do-well lounges and shambles
about with his hands in his pockets.
when he walks he shufiles and
moves in n listless way. usually with
his eyes on the ground, advertising
himself as an idler by every motion he
makes.
Do not fan into his slouching habit
Hold yourself up
The manner in which you carry
yourself the way Jou step Off. your
whole bearing. has much TO do with
what you try to do or 10 be.
No man can hope TO accomplish re-
suits In the guise OF weakling or a
coward.
Men are quick to read men.
A glance at your face and bearing
will enable any observer 20 put you
down for what you are.
The man who has an alert look about
him, an upright. self respectful bear
ing and a brisk manner win get an
audience with men. He who shows
a slovenly gait. a laggard manner and
a slouching habit viii, as the Irish
bull has 1t, lose his chance before he
gets It.
Stand upl
You are n man made in Gods own
image. There is the royal blood Of
divine origin in your veins. You are
the son OF a king.
Show your royal prerogative.
Years do not matter. DO not permit
your physical uprlghtness TO droop be
cause you are old Keep a straight
spine Walk as II you we're some
body.
When the slothful fellow shambles
along he shows the figure Of failure.
Do not shamble.
You were born to walk upright and
brIskly, even to your grave. Hold nj
your chin. DO not allow your frame
to be stopped as II you sought way
to go on your hands and feet. You are
no four footed animal.
You nre Gods kin.
No more beautiful sight is presented
10 the sons Of men than that OF Q
white haired, energetic man or woman
erect, brisk and CHEEKY. Character
dignity and nobility are spelled by thu
upright attitude.
Therefore look up. not down
DO not shamble like a bear.
Walk erect like a man.

THAT CHRISTMAS PIE.
Confession Of the Sinner Who
Doctored the Mincemeat.

1t had been our family custom to;put
brandy in all the mince pies and to
put in ut Christmas time sufficient
amount to enable the partakers thereof
to detect that there was really some
thing in it, 1t often went so far as to
deserve the remark of my grandfather
that we put mince pie in our brandy.
With this as the family precedent.
imagine the CONSERVATION when it was
learned that Rev. Jeremiah Scroggins,
our new minister and an avowed tee
totaler, had accepted mothers invita-
ton to Christmas dinner. A vote was
taken at the family table 1--WE were
democratic householdj. and Ii was de-
cided that out of respect TO our guest
the brandy would be omitted from the
big ulince pie.
Now, e;lc: of MS In his heart of hearts
felt that the pie would be improved TX
just wee bit of brandy were added.
SO |. for one. resolved to do the deed.
Accordingly | sought out the big stone
crock in which repOsed the mince-
meat and poured in What thought
was moderate quantity of brandy.
It's wonderful how true is the adage
about great minds running in similar
channels. for every other member of
the family, including my Either. sur
rep,iiiously did the same thing Later
we figured that the miiicemeat must
have been trea ted 10 nigh onto a quart.
Mother reserved her brandy until
Christmas day. when. before the pie
was baked. she added il generous
amount OF the strong stuff.
With hearts as high as the fiaky pie
crust itself we all watched mother
carve that pie and serve it.

cause of an expressed fondness for pie.
was given Il big portion.
No sooner had we tasted OF the fine
dish than we discovered tiat that pie
was nothing short of Il small sized dis
tillery. 1t was branded as no other
pie had been since the birth of time.

went round th feSta board as we
watched the Rev. jeremiah begin to
