Opportunity.

The following poem by Judge Wal
ter Malone, one of the great poets of
the south, ought to be pasted up in
every young mans room. There is
inspiration in it:
They do me wrong VINO say come 10
more
When once I knock and fail to find
you in;
For every day 4 stand without your
door,
And bid you work, and rise to fight
and win.
Wall not for precious chances passed
away,
Weep not for golden ages on the
Each night + burn the records Of the
day
At sunrise every soul is born again!
Laugh like q boy at splendors that
have fed
TO vanished joys be blind and deaf
and dumb;
My judgments seal the dead past with
it, dead,
But never bind a moment yet to come.
uOuSu uG6p Ill ul1IG, WTlAS uOL yOuI
hands and weep;
lend my arm to all who say ''T cam
No shame-faced outcast ever sank SO
deep
But he might rise and be again a
man!
Dost thou behold thy lost youth all
aghast?
Dost reel from righteous retribution's
blow?
Then turn from blotted archives Of
the past,
And find the futures pages white as
snow.
Art thou a mourner? Rouse thee
from thy spell;
Art thou a sinner? Sins may b.
forgiven:
Each morning gives thee wings to fee
from hell,
Each night a star to guide thy feet to
heaven

Pointing The Point.

"I think" remarked Biggs, Zone Of
the funniest signs ever saw was
this: Teeth Extracted While You
Wait"
Higgs laughed long and loudly at
this, and shortly afterward H. tried IL
on Jiggs.
" A friend of mfne," he said, told
me of a funny sign he had seen
Teeth Extracted While You Wait"
Jiggs reflected.
"What is there funny about that?''
he asked. IT don't quite catch the
point"
Cant you see? The man who put
up that sign used five words when one
would have been enough. The word
dentist covers the whole round. Ev-
cry dentist il supposed To pull teeth,

SNAKE STORY.
Picking Orr "A Rather.

An incident, filed to the brfm with
thrills" is told by Ross Cox and re-
peated in George Bird GrinnelIs
Trails of the Pathfnders. The par
ty had reached the high, volcanic,
treeless country, and had seen several
rattlesnake when here an old acci-
dent happened to one of the men nam
ed La Course, which might well have
proved fatal. Cox says:
This man had stretched himself
On the ground, after the fatigue OF the
day, and with his head resting on a
small package Of goods, had quickly
fallen asleep. While he slept, 7 walk
ed past him, and was almost petrified
at seeing large rattlesnake moving
from his side to his left breast.
MY first impulse was to alarm La
Course; but "a old Canadian whom
had beckoned to the spot said that the
snake would merely cross the body
and go away. He was mistaken, how
ever, for on reaching the mans
shoulder the serpent deliberately coil
ed itself. Having made signs to sew
eral others, who joined US, we decided
to have two men advance little tn
the front, To divert the attention of the
snake, while third man approached
La Course from behind, and with a
long stick tried to remove the serpent
from his body.
''The snake, on observing the men
advance in front, instantly darted out
it's forked tongue and shook its rat
tles-all indications OF anger
Every one was now in state Of
feverish agitation as to the fate OF
poor La Course, who still lay slumber-
ing, unconscious of his danger, when
the man behind, who had procured q
stick seven feet in length, suddenly
placed one end of it under the coiled
reptile and succeeded in pitching il
nearly ten feet from the mans body.
"a shout OF joy was the first init
nation La Course received Of his
wonderful escape"

GumptiOn on the Farm.

Here's wishing you the best year
yet!
Ever notice how easy it is for man
to get married who isn't able to sup
port wife?
What Il the use Of sucking a filthy
roll Of tobacco called cigar? Be
clean!
The self-made man is never finished
until some woman gets busy and pol
ishes Off the rough edges.
Footprints on the sands of time are
all right, but be careful not to make
them on mothers clean kitchen floor.
The thing that uses a man UP and
makes him old before his time Is to
stop work and turn into frst-class
loafer.
When your husband wants hammer
in the house just take him yours He
will bring you home better one the
next time he goes to town, see if h.
doesn't.
When the producer and consumer
are one man, then, indeed, the distance
between them il reduced to a mini
mum. Raise everything possible for
your own use on your own farm
