WHY FEAR DEATHS CALF
Philosopher Regards Passing Away as
Only Natural and Good-Fears
the Unnatural.

They were discussing death, little
of health an6 the glory of living. Men
of the world, in a sense, and enjoying
life to its utmost, the subject of death
was introduced by the announcement
that a widely-known man with whom
all of them had been acquainted had
passed away
One of the party according to the
Columbus (O.) Dispatch, said he hated
to think bf death, that he was actually
afraid to think of 1t. lie so loved life
that death seemed a terrible enemy,
and he would like to escape it. But
the philosopher of the party--only he
was not known as a philosopher until
he delivered his little preachment-
said he could not understand such an
attitude toward death.

that alarms me. II would be unnatural
20 live forever, and would hate to be
sentenced to such punishment. But
1eath. is natural; am not afraid of 1t.
Billions OF people have died; they are
dying every day. Little children have
died and old men and women. and the
birds and beasts all pass away, and the
fishes In the streams. and every living
thing upon the earth is to die. Why,
then, should great hulk of chap
like Myself, one who has had and La
having his time, why should fear

Not afraid Of that which is natural7
If only all of us could understand that
the natural is good and the unnatural
bad, what splendid world 1t would

therefore could not hold his trade.
