A GOOD EXAMPLE

A wonderful and inspiring story is
told in the American Magazine about
a sightless and armless lecturer who
has succeeded in the world after one
of the most horrible catastrophes that
ever happened to a man. Following
is an extract from the story:
His name is Hanks, n. C. Hanks.
At q he and his partner leased a
claim near Nephi, Utah, and prospect
ed for ore.
"One noon they had been working
near their cabin and were cleaning up
preparatory to chuck Hanks was
feeling as fine as a young man should
who is overlooking with life, is work
ing a good claim, has a keen appetite
for approaching dinner and has a
letter from his sweetheart in his
pocket. 1t was the last thing n. G..
Hanks was ever to read with his W

was his turn to make the meal. A
box of dynamite caps lay in the sun
near his jumper. He picked up his
jumper and reached for the box. but
saw his gloves a few PAGES away.
AS his partner turned, Hanks call
ed to him, You go on to the cabin and
hurry that grub, I'll attend to the
caps
In another moment he had picked
up the box, which had lain in the sun
until overheated. The slight jar did
the rest. BY a miracle he was not
torn to shreds, but was hurled ten
feet. Within a minute he arose,
blinded, bleeding, but calm. The
mountains and the sky had vanished.

ing stumps and with his hands had
gone all means of livelihood.
His partner, screaming and crying
liFe a child, gazed upon him. Recov.
ering, he helped him to the cabin,
bound his arms above the elbows with
handkerchiefs and started for help.
They were six miles from a telephone
or a %neighbor, and many more from a
town or a doctor.
"All that afternoon Hanks lay alone.
save for the companionship Of a small
dog, which cried ~piteously all the day.
Mercifully, Hanks suffered no pain ex-
cept for the bandages which tortured
him excruciatingly, as his arms swell.

well, help came. They got him to
Provo, to a hospital, the mere wreck
of a human being. They patched him
up, but as he lay there thinking, life
looked black indeed. His sweetheart
came to see him, and he broke their
engagement. Then he felt better. 1t
was the n duty he had had left in
life, and he had done it.
He "a out again, but Of what
avail was that. What may a man see

There came to Provo, Byron King
of Pittsburg, a lecturer, a teacher.
Kings daughter had married a rela-
tive of Hanks. Hanks went to King
to study.
For three years now n. c. Hanks
has been lecturing and giving critical
interpretations of Shakespeare and
modern authors. Think of it a
moment. A man choosing as his life
