The busy men and women of the world are those who have at- tained greatness. Many such have endured hardships and practiced rigid economy to enable them to meet the demands of a large fami- ly; and the greatest men America ever produced have been men who labored with hands and brain. After acquiring competency, and remembering the years that are gone, most of them admit that their working years were their happiest years.

MARVEL IN ANIMAL SOUND |
Traveller Writes FeelInsly Of Wonder
fut Bray Put Forth by tho
Donkeys Of China.

In all the east today the donkey Is a
favorite means Of transportation, both
for travellers and commercial burdens.
It was so In the days of the patriarchs.
Isaac and Jacob, and so it will remain
probably for ages to come. But MOTH
ing in China Is just like the same thing
anywhere else in the world, the dom
key being no exception. DR.. Chester
Of. Nashville says: Their gait is q
rough. 1nsufferable jog, and their bray
Is unique phenomenon.
1.-THE power of heredity, working
through millenniums Of isolation, with
no modification from foreign admix-
ture, has developed in the bray of the
Chinese donkey a quality all it's own.
There are no words in English to de.
scribe the heart-rending pathos of it.
1t was as If an appeal to heaven
against the cruelty and oppression of
ages were at last finding utterance in
one long, loud. undulating wall. And
when our party of three met another
party Of six and all nine of the don.
keys began at one time to exchange
the compliments of the day, then
pathos gave place to terror and one
could only sit appalled, and trembling
as the mighty reverberation rolled
away on its journey round the world"
