How good it is; when one has wrought throughout his golden prime, to find a placerwhere he, distraught, may slumber all the time.” So men look forward as they strive to gain a good- Iy roll; when they are sixty-three, or five, they'll have attained thefr goal. Then they will find a place to dwell where people rest and play; to toil and care they’ll say farewell, and loaf the vears away. But work’s a habit har to shake when once it is acquired though that habit we would when we ‘e W n and tired. “Rest” has a sweet and soothing sound, but rest a month or two, and you'll be wildly gazing ‘round’for something vou can do. So with the lads of sixty six, who saunter by the shore, wh given up the old time tricks to rest forevermore. “\We cannot loaf with empty hands, for work the he-man yearns, and so We'll open hot dog stands, or peddie patent churns.” Americans are built that way, equip- ped with active minds, and loafing. lounging by the day, they think th worst of grinds. When one retires from active life, he'll stay retired a week, and then he’ll whisper to his wite, “Some work I'll have to seek.” WALT MASON.
