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,

“Of course I don’t. Ilobby’s sitting

only way to teach that boy is with a

AN UNMILITARY MAN'S REQUEST

ciillstmcnt, and am considered by a
Fircat doctor as unfit. Still I ani
not seriously deceased. .Tliere are

talion of such inen, give up a limp

~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
