Pepper Talks
By GroRcR MATTHEW ADAMS


Facets are the little fat planes on
the Diamond and other precious
stones that draw and reflect the
Light and give Value and Fascina-
tion to the stone itself Experts will
tell you that the Diamond In the
rough Is worth but from five to about
fifty dollars a Karat. whereas after
being cut-and polished-each Facet
brilliantly blazing its light, the Dia-
mond becomes worth from one to
five hundred dollars Karat, or
thereabout
II Is the Cutting and Polishing
that jumps Diamond values.
a Human Being Is often likened to
Diamond In the Rough. And those
who stand out above others and draw
others their way and who demand
and command Respect and Honor are
those who have cut and polished the
largest number of Facets from their
natural human Worth in the Rough.
All excellence results from Sweat and
Effort-from the warming of healthy
Blood and the speeding up of pur-
poseful Heart-throbs.
That mans life is worth most who
realizes his Possibilities most.
For the concealed, uncut Facets are
the Possibilities. The larger the
number of Facets. the greater is the
brilliance OF the Stone and the larger
is its Value. Human society is made
up of men and women whose Facets
are at various stages Of development.
Some hardly get away from the
Rough. Others get as far as to the
cutting Of the Facets-but never get
down to the polishing business. while
there are others whose Facets show
out into the world with marvellous
sparkle and wonder.
Ask yourself IL your Facets look
brighter with each added day.
Your Talents. your Abilities. your
possible Deeds are your Facets. But
II they are not cut. evenly planed-

Tomorrow

What holdest thou In dover?
To-day. in its last hour,
Shall soon, withered flower.
Drop from the stem of time.
And. dead and curled, blow aimlsss
Upon some current nameless,
Forgotten. faded. fameless,
Whilst thou art In thy prime.
What holdest thou In TREASURED
Shall sorrow reign. or pleasure
Or each in equal measure
Hold for space full sway,
Shall we have power to change thee.
Or to our wills arrange thee,
Till time itself estrange thee.
And thou be yesterday?
Have all our days. now ended.
To thy upbulldng tended?
Hast thou on us depended
For what thou art to be?
Or from times far beginning
Hast thou thy way been winning
With changeless need Of SHINING.
OF pain and ecstasy?
Thou seemest vast. Tomorrow,
And from the past Of sorrow
We come at last TO borrow
Some solace from thy scope.
For when, from Eden faring.
The lost ones walked despairing.
God saw all woe, and. caring,
Bestowed the boon OF hope.

HE COLLIE
BY GEORGE FITCH

THE COLLIE is a tall. Gothic dog with
long. fine hair and lean, pointed
nose which was designed to enable
him to drink water out OF a crayhsh
hole In case of necessity.
The collie has bright. beautiful
eyes, full OF intelligence. sharp, ex.
pressive ears and a mouth which ex-
tends back into his face about foot,
and Is decorated on the eiges with
quantities of teeth. When the collie
opens his face slightly. allows his
plentiful tongue to hang negligently
over his lower jaw and thumps the
floor with his mohair tail, he is as
eloquent in his discourse as many a
man who can recite the Unabridged
Dictionary, page for page.
The collie was invented in Scot.

most valuable assets. Thanks to the
