WOULD ARISE EARLY
Mr.. GO!TT MAKES GOOD RESoLU
TON, BUT, ALAS!
Put INTO Practice, II Did Not Seem q
Joy Producer, After All, But He
viii Take a Brace and Try
II Again.

About the time everybody was hik,
ing out to his country home early last
summer Mr. Goitt made a few re-
marks anent early rising:
There's one thing we're going to dc
as soon as we get out in the country
again. says he to his wife Were
going to get out of bed in the morning
as soon as the birds begin TO stir
around that they'll think we're trying
TO beat their time. That's what we're
going to do. and | hope you'll just bear
1t in mind. It's bad enough TO lie in
bed until 1850 and s O'Clock of a
morning during the winter months in
town. But 1t won't do al all after we
get out to the country No. stree! The
man that stays in bed after FIVE
o'clock on a summer morning misses
not only the finest time of the day
but the most splendiferous time OF the
whole year. Nothing can equal those
first two or three hours after sun UP
on balmy, dewy summer morning.
Then's when a man ought to hustle
out and get some of that priceless
early morning oxygen into his lungs
before breakfast You wouldn't hear
of many cases of dyspepsia if every
body would do that Funny. though
how some people like to lie in bed
of morning and miss the prize por.
ton of the day.
In something less than a week after |
that Mrs. Goltt was endeayoring to |
awaken her husband and get him out |
OF bed in time to catch the eight |
o'clock car 10 town.
II was some moments before he re
gained even partial consciousness,
Then her words concerning nine hours
sleep being enough for any man just
seemed to harass him TO the point OF
actual grouchiness.
'Whatchuh wanta drag a man out
OF bed for just when he's getting the
best part OF his Sleep" he asked pee
vishly This thing of getting out Of
bed in the early hours Of the morn
ing is the most bughouse gag you've
tried to pull of since I've known you.
WHAT'S the sense to il, anyway" BY
that time Goitt was well aroused and
getting warmed up to his subject.
Don't you know he went on. that
all this talk about the advantages OF
getting up early in the morning and
losing your sleep just for the sake Of
q silly fad has been exploded long
ago? Well, 1t has You know that now i
II you didn't before. And after this /
want you TO lemme sleep. Are you
aware Of the fact that the insane asy-
ums have more farmers in en- than
my other class? Why? Because the
armers all get up so early IN the 6
morning. that's why. This early ris-
ng bug Of yours has gone Just about
ar enough" IN
After that Mrs Goitt gave up trying.
Z her husband wanted to mics his !
breakfast in order to catch his car d
lalf the time. he could do il.
But Just the other day when the D
ioitts were talking about coming back q
o town again for week or so. Colt Z
