Don't Dodue.

Do not dodge. Whatever the diff
culties to be met, they are not made
easier by trying to dodge them. In
trying to dodge a missile from one
direction you may come in line with
one from different direction. When
we dodge trouble we are more than
likely to get into other trouble no
less easy to endure. Look with cour-
age on what must be met. Faced
with courage difficulties are half con-
quered. Better to meet and conquer
difficulties than to dodge them. Do not
dodge duties that devolve on you.
Duties performed add strength and
dignity to character. 1t matters lit
tie what these duties are; though they
may be of the simplest and humblest,
well and truly done. they acquire dig
nifty. Stand up bravely and squarely
to meet the difficulties of life. With
courage you will conquer. You will
come through life with fewer scars
than by trying to dodge duty or diff
Guilty. Trying to eyade begets in a
man a crlnging spirit. He gets a

respecting manhood is gone. Don't

chatting about some people they had

Lohengrin saw them coming and

We were now about two miles from

CAYi isn't 1t great to get all wrapped
- up in fur robes in fine old sleigh
and let fine old horse drag you over
the fine old snow on a fine old coun-
try road?
Answer: 1t is.
It's great II all the ingredients are
properly proportioned. but nine times
out of ten something goes wrong with
the horse or the sleigh or the snow or
the road and you find yourself four
miles from nowhere, sitting on an ice
hummock and screaming for transpor-
tation, while the harsh winds of win
ter are biting their initials on your
southern exposure.
Peaches and l went to visit Uncle
Peter and Aunt Martha upstate. and
when friend wife found the ground
covered with snow, right away she
began to sit up and beg sleigh ride.
She said that the sweet jingle-jangle
OF the bells would bring rest to her
nerves after a season of trying to
cross the streets In New York without
being struck by a taxicab. SO Uncle
Peter told me where to find livery
stable and of hiked
Anyone who has never lived in a

what handsome specimens of equine
perfection may be found in the local

Uncle Peter lives is named Henlopen

in which he grabbed my deposit

sighed deeply and then backed up
into the shafts of sleigh that looked
something like a BARRIERS chair and
something like the tumbril Marie An
toinette used the afternoon she went
to the guillotine.
The liveryman said that the name of
the horse was Lohengrin, because 1t
seemed to go better in German.
| drove Lohengrin up to Uncle Pc
ter's residence and all the way there
we ran neck to neck with a coal cart.
Lohengrin used to be a fast horse,
but quite some time ago he stopped
eating his wild oats and now leads a
slower life.
When reached the gate | whistled
for Peaches, because l was afraid to
get out and leave Lohengrin alone.
He might go to sleep and fall down.
Friend wife came out, looked at the
rig and then went back in the house
and bade everybody an affecting fare
well.
There were tears in her eyes when
she came out and climbed into the
sleigh. She said she was crying be-
cause Aunt Martha wasn't there to
see us driving away and have the
laugh of her life.
