Let Me Live Out My Years

Let me live out my years in heat of blood !

Let me die drunken with the dreamer's wine !

Let me not see this soul-house built of mud

Go toppling to the dusk-a broken shrine.

I"et me go quickly, like a candle light

Snufred out just at the heydey of its glow.

Give me high noon-and let it then be night !

Thus would I go.

And grant that when I face the grisly thing, My song may trumpet down th,e gray Perhaps.

Let me be as 4 tune-swept fiddle string

That feels the Master Melody-and snaps !

(From "The Quest" by Macmillan.)

Fooled Him

They tell the story of the young man who was disappointed in love, and decided that he would get a lot of liguor, and proceed to drown his sorrows in drink. At the end of a week he quit. He discovered that he wasn't drownin! his sorrows at all. He was just giving them swimming lessons.

Mob And Crowd

The principal difference between a mob and a crowd is that the crowd is for you, and the mob against yorl.

Woman annd the IHiome

Besides the practical urge to the men of the lumber industry to be the home builders of the'nation, a splendidly sentimental urge is adding impetus and momentum to the campaign, and that is the fact that the women of this land are. entitled to Something better than the old-timey, plain, box-car houses" that have worn out the lives of numberless housekeqlers looking after them. Modern, attractive, well ventilated, step.saving homes for the housewife, are RIGHT, and because they are RIGHT they must and will prevail. They cost no more to build than the old-fashioned, eyesore kind, and they are a source of eternal satisfaction to the home loving, home building mother of the family, to whom HOME is everything. In a well-built, wellarranged modern HOME, the housekeeper finds her daily labor ,cut in half as to physical work, and reduced still another fifty per cent by the satisfaction that fills her heart at knowing that she has a HOME-not merely shelter from the weather-to take care of, and to be responsible for.

NOT "BORN''

It isn't heredity that helps the really strorrg man to bring home the bacon; it's determination. It isn't, luck, it's pluck; it isn't inspiration, it's perspiration; it's HONESTY and good old fashioned contagious enthusiasm, and ambition, and dogged determination, dnd courage, and mental and physical energy, and bulldog sticktoitiveness.

Sometimes They Do Have To

The enthusiastic owner was telling about his dog, what a wonderful animal he was, how intelligent, what a splendid hunter, etc., and theh proceeded, as proof of his contention, to recite about the time when this dog was hunting in the woods and came upon a hungry bear. The bear took after the dog, and the dog ran for his life. Discovering, however, that in spite of his best efiorts the bear rvas gaining on him, the dog saw that he had only ohe chance to escape, so he ran up a tree and got away.

"Here, here," said one of his listeners, "'Where do you get this stufi about your dog climbing a tree. You know a dog can't climb a tree."

"Can't, Hell," replied our hero, "This dog HAD to climlr a tree,t'

Sincerity is Internal Honesty

One Of The Few

"You are the only woman I have every really loved. You believe me, don't you ?" cried the enthusiastic lover.

"I do," replied the calm maiden, "but there's thousands that wouldn't."

Wine And Woman

The blood o' the grape-the offspring of the vine, Who knows it not, knows not of joy divine. And woman fair, where all the graces throng, Who knows them both, shall find the gift of song.
