THE GOOD LOSER
By THOMAS ARKLE CLARK

r HAVE never known anyone who
l loved the out-of-doors more than
Mcmillan did. Trees and flowers and
birds and the blue sky thrilled him. A
dog and q gun and tramp through
the woods and across the hills gave
him the keenest pleasure. He had an
eye for beauty very rarely found.
His great ambition was to be sur
geon. but there was no money in the
Mcmillan family, and If Roger were
to get anywhere 1t would be by his
own efforts. His father was black
smith in a Western village, and all
through high school and for two or
three years afterward Roger shod
horses and worked at the anvil and
saved his money to take him to med
ical school,.
He had no easy time in medical
school, but he got on amazingly. He
had no pleasure excepting the pleasure
of earning his living by hard toll and
the Joy of realizing that he was doing
his college work well. The dean said
that of all the young fellows who had
come under his notice Mcmillan
showed most promise. His grasp of
the subjects he was studying was won
derful, his skill in surgery marvellous.
He gave every promise of winning the
game of life.
Toward the end of his senior year a
strange dimnesS came over his eyes at
times; severe pains sometimes shot
through his head, but he was too much
engrossed with his work to give these
much attention. He was the president
of his class, he was the most respected
man in college, he had little time to
think of himself. Just before COM
mencement someone persuaded him 20
have his eyes examined. The physi-
clan was alarmed and sent him to the
most distinguished specialist in the
country.
There Is no use in Disgusting the
TRUTH" the specialist said, 1T is better
Tor you to know the worst. You are
losing your sight; there is no remedy
for it; in ten years at most you will
be totally blind"
"Pll make the most of the ten
years." the boy said, and that's about
all he said.
He went back to the town of his
birth and began his practice. AS his
