WORDS FROM
THE LIPS OF
WISE MEN

TT is a great thing to do little
thing well.
Continuance is better than force.
force.
Mind has its influence on mind,
and no man is free but when alone.
BY doubling we reach the truth.
Those who detect the faults Of
others, do not detect their own.
These are wise on others behalf
and foolish on their own.
A library is the souls burial
ground.
Great people are oftimes erea=
only because we are ON our knees.
Let us arisei
It is the role Of cowardice, not
OF courage, to go and crouch down
In a hole, under a massive tomb,
to avoid the blows Of fortune.
Every art Is an imitation of
nature.
No man is born without faults
he is the best who has the fewest.
When friendship goes with love
1t must play second fiddle.
Wise men learn more from fools
than fools from wise men.
-
Contentment is the philosophers
stone which turns all it. touches
into gold-the poor man is rich
with 1t and the rich man Is poor
without it.
A man receives only what he is
ready to receive, whether physi-
cally or intellectually or morally.
Fame itself is but an epitaph-
as late, as false, as true.
Little things are great to little
men.

SAP AND SALT

When a woman is forced to

To be a real statesman, you
must be against twice as many

to inquire about it's location.
A fortune awaits the man. who

SECRET OF PROLONGING
 LIFE OF HORSES IS FOUND
Army Experts Believe That They Have Discovered the Secret of
 Animal Longevity.

Washington. Nov. 30.-Army ex- perts believe they have discovered the secret of animal logevity.
 Old horses and mules in active service today have an average of fl years, while In the nominal civil ac- tiyities 11-year-old animals are re- garded as beyond the age of useful. ness. And the ''oldsters" of the army herds, whether in the cavalry, artil- lery or transport service, are still "go- ing strong" In one case a 25-year- olt charger is still winning blue rib bons for performances in his class.
 The secrets, the experts believe, lies in regularity of diet, exercise, rest, grooming and all the other cares with which the army surrounds it's animals in time of peace. They esti- mate that five year average increase in the usual life period of horses and mules in the service has already been proved, figuring that the 14- year r-olds of today will still be fit for active service two years from now.
 The total number of animals in &C., tive army service is 44,423, and the average age for all of these is IA years. Of the 26.254 horses, 80 per cent are more than II years of age and of the 1s,169 mules, 64 per cent have passed the 11-year mark. These statistics indicate, according to army experts, that the bulk of animal work in the army is being done by horses and mules which, in civil life. would be regarded as fit only for the bone- yard orathe pension list.
