But he read his mothers scrap

He determined to be as good a man

should like the privilege Of telling
them while they live how people
would like to think Of them after
they are dead, and then give them a

That is one unfortunate thing about
obituaries; they usually come too late
to induce their subjects to live up
to them.
There are men who will read this
article who some day are going to

place. He will wish to say good
things Every impulse of far play
toward a man who cannot answer
