TRAILS ABOUND IN ROMANCE
Written Testimonial Of the Trials and
Triumphs of the Men Who
Fashioned Them.

Nothing is more romantic than the
trail. remarks a writer in the Los An
geles Times 1t is the artery of trade
and life itself. On land it moves about
the bases of the mountains, out of the
lowlands, winding through the chapar-
raj, along the easy grades of the can
yons, never forcing its way, but def
nitely avoiding the slippery rock face
and the poison oak; upward into the
fresh air that breathes through the
pass; on, through the pass and into
the unknown beyond. into the valley OF
hearts desire it carries the laden mule
and the traveller with his pack.
Across the great deserts the trail is
a caravan route, seeking the shades of
cliff and avoiding the shifting dunes ;
stretching unerringly toward the next
water hole. 1t is the written testimO-
NAL of the trails and triumphs Of the
men who have gone before. 1t is the
only pathway of the devOut pilgrim, as
of the warlike Bedouin. Every habita-
ton of man that has ever dominated
one of. these great trails has made his
tory and has been in its day a treasure
house.

FELT SOMETHING WAS WRONG
Youngsters Experience Made Him
Doubt Whether His Prayers Were
Really Acceptable.

In the smoking room of La France,
on a cool, rough, windy day, George
Gould said:
'"These winter passages are I'M
pleasant, but they're never dangerous.
"One bleak December day | was sit
ting, wrapped up in furs and rugs, in
q sheltered corner of the promenade
deck of a Cunarder. The seas were
mountains high. The good old boat
seemed to stand on her head one min
ute, and the next she reared right up
on her hind legs.
"A tiny tot of boy made his way
cautiously to the young and pretty
matron seated next me. He steadied
himself against her deck chair and
said:
Mamma, is 1t wrong to pray that
we get home safe?
"'Of course not, darling
"'Well,' he went on, I've been
kneeling on a locker trying to pray
that we arrive safe in port, and each
time I begin the ship heayes up and
throws me on the deck. IA

Eatonic is the modern remedy for

Days of Stress

Through weary years of war
we wrought, our hearts op-
pressed by doubt and care, for
every dismal morning brought
some tale of bloodshed and
despair, while blood-drenched
armies toiled and fought the
endless battles lover there" 3"
All through the war we saved
and pinched, tried self-denial till
it hurt, that Kaiser Wilhelm
might be cinched and dumped,
defeated, in the dirt: we
thought that fellow should be
lynched who bought himself a
Sunday shirt. And when the
guns at last were stilled. and
placed in soak were sword and
lance, and warriors no longer
drilled across the sodden fields
of France, the bosoms of the
boys were filled with thoughts
of pomp and circumstance. For
we had lived like hermits gray,
and hermits have a beastly time =;
they live on turnips, peas and
hay, and think a sirloin steak a
crime; and so we rose and threw
away the franc, the kopeck and
the dime. And now this later
phase is spent, and sanity re-
sumes her throne, and every
wise and thoughtful gent reveres
the doubloon and the bone, and
to the bank he takes a cent, to
start bundle of his own. Re
leased from wartime's doubt and
dread, and having lived reaction
down, oh, there are better days
ahead for every delegate in
town; so let us walk with
sprightly tread, and spring the
smile and dump the frown.
