Where yon bank’s stately towers up- rear [ have my modest_little pire, and there I journey twice a year and clip some coupons with a smile, I have enough-to pay the price of all I'll need while I remain, to pur- chase hats and books and rice and gas and casings for my wain. The kindly gods I often thank, now that I'm old ahd halt and.gray, that I have rubles in the bank, a modest parcel put away. Youth says, “We'll go it while we're young, for we shall be a long time dead; while yet our withers are unwrung we’ll paint the village glowing red.” And it is well to have your fun while you are sound in wind and limb, to blow a portion of your mon, and waltz through life with pep and vim. But always you should recollect that youth is transient as the dawn ; some day a gray hair you'll detect, and you will know that youth is gone. And if you salted down a_dime be- fore you blew in four or five, you'lll think your prudence was- sublime, when life’s dark, wintry days arrive. I rest beside my garden gate and croon these words, the &vening long: “I'm thankful that I saved a crate of coin when I was hale and strong.” (Copyright.) ~ WALT MASON.- —_— “The Pledmont Limited” l New fast train for Atlanta and New Orleans, making connection for Texas, Mexico and the Pacific coast.
