GAVE BOBBY SOME LESSONS.

What are you going to do, John?"

asked Mrs. Fazzle, as her husband uu- .wrappcd a pair of boxing gloves. g “I'1n going to give Bobby some les- sons in self defence," he answered. “Every boy should know how to take care of himself in an emergency. Come on, Bobby; I won‘t hurt you." Twen- ty minutes later Mr. Fazzle returned with his hand on his face. “Get me a raw piece of meat to put on my eye, and the arnica bottle."

“Why you don't mean to say that

Bobby--" _

“Of course I don’t. Ilobby’s sitting

out in the yard now in sorrow and re-- pentance. I have discovered that the only way to teach that boy is with a strap."

AN UNMILITARY MAN'S REQUEST

May I suggest a use for uniniliiary

men oi' military age 'I I am thirty six. have been medically rejcctoil for ciillstmcnt, and am considered by a Fircat doctor as unfit. Still I ani not seriously deceased. .Tliere are iiinny like me. \\'liy not form a bat- talion of such inen, give up a limp training, nrnl us with cld rifles, sf.-fill us te France und, let us make 11, fem: ~a night i='..1rk, for ernmple-presq- ed to the utmost of our small power, while a rcnl attack is developed else- where? Fighting is at close quar- ers. We could be used without our phyisque being strained th the break- ing point before it began.

We might cumber a hospital, but

what matter if we had lured away an enemy force? More probably our survivors would prove a useless en- cumbrance to the Germans. Our training being directed to a definite end soon attained or lost, would be slight, just sufficient for us to move in military order and make some sort of show. Perhaps one of the big vol- unteer corps would give this. We need not cost the Government much for the better off might help the worse off.

The plan would help in a humble

way to show that our country is in earnest. It might well enable the weak to perform- a task for which the strong and competent are too often sacrificed. lt would crown our last moments with a manhood that our shadowed lives have never known.

JUST SUPPOSE

Just suppose that you were stricken

With the illness of despair, And you had begun to sicken =

Of the fevered breath of care. And suppose that you were lonely.

Don't you tlilnk ’twould do you good

If but one real fellow only

Came and cheered you where you

stood?

Don't you think your skies would

brighten

And your shattered courage mend.

Don't you think your cares would

lighten

If you new you had a friend?

Just suppose your heart was yearning

For a kindly word of cheer.

And with grief your soul was burning,

And your skies were dull and drear,

Doii‘t you think yoii’d rather like it

Il' some one should come and say; “Just cheer up! You're bound to

strike it!

Come, l'il help you on the way!"

Don't you think beneath your trouble

That your back would cease to bend,

And the pluck of yoil would double lf you knew you had a friend?

Wfl, ihere‘s some such weary brother

'Round about you every day,

Whom the fumes of failure smother As he treads his lonely way. _

He is standing, sad and weary.

Just as you may someday stand.

And he needs the comfort cheery Of a strong and helpful hand.

So. suppose you be the brother With encouragement to lend. And make glad that lonely other
