THE VANISHED POMPS OF
YESTERDAY
DWARD, the seventeen-year-old
son of my next-door neighbor, was
in a state of mind. He was going to
take his “girl” to a party and was 8
good deal humiliated because the fam-
ily did not own a coach or a limousine,
and the journey from her house to the
scene of the social orgle—a distance
of four or five blocks—would have to
be made In an open car.
“It's rotten luck to have to take a
girl that way,” he complained to his
mother, allsympathetic 48 mother's al-
ways are. “I don’t know what she'll
think. All the other fellows have
closed Packards or Marmons, and I
have to go 'm an open Buick.” It was
Indeed a cruel fate,
It was not thus when | was seven-
teen. We went In style then. I was to
take Hattle Barlow to the Fourth of
July celebration In Mink Grove. She
was a mighty pretty girl, and she was
thirteen. It seems a little young now
as I think it over, but that fact never
occurred to me then.
I made elaborate preparations for
the event, I washed the lumber wagon
and swept it out cgrefully. 1 made a
fresh cushion for the spring seat, and
tied a new ribbon on the long buggy
whip I carried. I trimmed the manes
and tails of the mules I was to drive
and brushed and curried them until
thelr coats shone like ebony, though I
didn’t know much about ebony then.
We went in the morning so that we
could be part of the parade which was
headed by the local band and lead by
Taylor Rowlett riding a spirited bay
horse and wearing a beautiful red sash
made of shiny paper muslin. It was
some parade! [ remember that Hattle

SELF-ENTERTAINMENT
FEARS MARSHAL lives in the vil
lage near which I was born. He
wus a farmer until he was forty-five
a prosperous farmer whose land had
been left him by his fathe He had
really worked hard. He had
gone to the district school until he
was fourteen and his father had even
sent him to a boys’ academy for a
time and had offered to put him
through college, but he was not fond
of study, he saw nothing very prac
tical in books or in education, and he
came back home at the end of his first
year at the academy and anpounced
that he was through. He went to work
on the farm, and a few years later,
bis father having died, he inherited
it and took charge of It.
He developed no interest outside of
the routine work in which he was en-
gaged. He had no avocations, no hob-
bles, no recreations. He never read a
book so far as 1 know; he had no in
terest in newspapers excepting in the
one or two technical agricultural pa-
pers which his father had subscribed
for and which he paid for each year
in @#n uninterested way. He had no
interest in music: he could not play a
game; the detalls of travel confused
him and got on his nerves. He was
totally without resources for self-en-
tertainment. It had never occurred to
him when he was young that old age
would one day eateh up with him and
separate bim frou his old occupation,
and if he were then to be happy there
must be something within him to form
a basis of that happiness, *
He moved to town when hé was
forty-five and gave up work. He sits
by the radiator In winter and on the
porch in summer, restless and discon
tented. His chief Interest Is tending
the furnace in winter and mowing the
fawn in summer. He has four timer
as much money as Lie can spend, but
he's wretchedly unbmppy because he
hits never learned to enjoy himself.
One of the happlest persons 1 ever
knew was an old lady, blind and bed
ridden. She had read widely and this
reading had taken her into fields of
poetry and romance, and Into every
foreign country on the globe. As she
lay in bed her mind was filled with
beautiful memories; her imagination
carried her far away from the scene
of her misfortune. She repeated to
herself the beautiful things she had
committed to memory; she sat with
the people she had met In history and
bography and fiction. No one who
visited her was ever impressed with
the fact that she was helpless and
blind, for her mind was full of things
for her own entertainment.

the attending physician to order a

tors to send thelr consumptive patients

We know now that tuberculosis is
not a disease of any one locality or
slimate. As It occurs anywhere, so It
san be cured anywhere. A mild cll
mate Is not necessary. Cold air Is
setter for consumptives than warm alr,

are better than anywhere else,
Just as we have learned that no
