HIT HARD
 AND SMILE!
 AND YOU'LL WIN

In the billiard room of the Copper Queen hotel is a little man by the name of Jerry, who presides at the tables. Jerry shoots what they call dirigible ball. which is to say, the ball he hits travels around and around the table until finally it falls into a pocket, even though it missed the pocket towards which Jerry directed it in the first place.
 And those who play with Jerry say loud and harsh and profane things about his luck. But Jerry just smiles and goes on winning games.
 But there is something more than luck in the way that Jerry plays a pool game. He shoots hard, and he smiles,
 If all the gents who come 10 Jerry g tables to play pool will always shoot and hit and fight hard in the game of life. and smile. they will win that game just as Jerry wins at pool.
 Hit hard and smile. The combina- tion cannot he beaten in any game
 To the thOughtless. Jerry is just . lucky pool player But tO those who are humble and anxious to learn the lessons of life and keen to observe the signposts along the way. Jerry is a philosopher, teacher and guide every time he takes his cue and plays a game.

THE DOG HE LEFT BEHIND.

Dicks father is busy man. And though he never quite forgeis. His days pass in giddy whirl- lis Dicks old dog that pines and
 frets. All day he wanders restlessiy From street to street about the
 place; And searches with an aching soul And mOurnful eye for one dear face. Dicks mother. too, is full of cares; And though her heart oft flies to
 France. Still, household duties. Red Cross
 work,
 Give troubled thought but little
 chance. Old Laddie never heard of France; He only knows that dusk no more Brings to his ever listening ear That well known footsteP on the
 floor Dicks sweetheart loves him tenderly. But she is young and brave and gay. And youths elastic foot Can dance the saddest hours away. Old Laddie's feet drag heavily; He drops beside an empty chair; He sleeps outside a fast-closed door And dreams his master still is there.

HIS HOUSE BY THE SIDE

The fat cook descended from the throne of his dignity and smiled a little and scraped and bowed to those at his board. The newspaper man was praising his raisin bread. Jack learned me to bake it. sir" he said, "and Jack is a prime one at the oven and the dough-
 Jack, Happy Jack Ashford, was mine host to the newspaper man that Sab bath day at his house by the side of the road that leads to the Huachuchas. With his hands spread out and way ing like the sails of a windmill and his gray hair and beard bristling with eagerness, he had dragged the news paper man within the portals of his home in order to serve to him this raisin bread and sundry pieces oi young turkey heaped high in the bak- ing pan.
 "Of course, he can cook SooS Dread" {" said Jack, didn't I learn him myself. and Pm the best bread baker in the state of Arizona. He learned quick, because I made him eat the bad patches himself. That's the only way to learn 'em."
 And Jack raved on, leading the newspaper man past his rows of fruit trees, waist high, and calling his husky turkeys to parade in grand review be- fore them in the glorious sunshine. And the newspaper man thought what game. brave. cheerful little old man he was as he sawed the air with his calloused hands and waved his chin whisker like a flag, as he talked on and on about dry farming and wind mills and wells and sickness and sOr- row and help and healing and hope and happiness forevermore.
 His windmill clanks all day so that thirsty pilgrims who pass may have water. His door stands open and his heart is as warm and kind as that oi little child. Jack has nursed and fed and cheered many worn and broken pilgrim in his day. He is A part of the Huachuchas, standing at the gate to soften with his smile and his flow of words the grim, stern, hard outlines of those mountain peaks.
 This is the finest home in the world" he shouted, walking excitedly about in his dooryard, bareheaded is the sunshine. and pointing to his hum ble cabin and little yard and strag- gling rows of trees and ranch grass that fought for its life in the pasture Well, at that, he may be right. It is the masters heart and not the arch itect's drawings that makes the finest home.
 On the walls of his kitchen, Jack has pasted the following words: Goodness and prosperity shall fol low me all the days of my life; my cup runneth over" And it may well be so. The house of hospitality Is thrice blessed. The hand that holds the cup of cold water for the thirsty shall not his own cup run over? The Master promised that it should be so-
 As the newspaper man drove away he glanced back for a moment The big turkeys strutted in the dooryard and the little man stood among them prouder than the proudest of these birds. He was looking at his farm that he had wrought from the desert and at his house by the side of the road Well, he has right to be proud.
