The Wav of Life.

1t is being said of an elderly man in
business in Atchison: He can't stand
punishment as he formerly could"
And there is punishment to be en-
dured in making living; don't forget
it, Look over your own experience,
and you will detect punishment every
hour of the day. If it isn't at home, 1t
is on the street car or on the road.
How many ways there are to punish
a man who tries his best to get along
and behave himself. And after man
gets old it is more evident every year
that the poor fellow can't stand pun
ishment as he could when he was
younger.-Atchison Globe.
