In Denmark, as in other countries, they are troubled with men born tired, men who are “smow-shovelers in sum- mer and haymakers in wiLter.” Den- mark takes them firmly but kindly and puts them to bed. In bed it keeps them as long as may be necessary. ¥our days are, as a rule, sufficient for the most obdurate cases. At the end of that time the idler is found to be feverish for work. Dally Thought.

No, ! 52 was not a popular train, and they took it simply because each had busi- ness engagements or schedules that must be followed. The train had just spun through a wide, arid waste, leaving behind clouds of alkall dust. The five men were grouped togeth- er, pretty well talked out on general subjects, and each ready for a little excitement, when one of them pointed- out of the window. -“See those foot- hills over there? Just a few months ago, they caught ‘Red Bert’ there. He held up a train near here, and shot the engineer and.an express agent.” Then it was that a little insignifi- | cant chap who had joined them fifty miles back, by his card a representa- tive of a small beef concern, ruffled the nerves of the five travel weary men in a way he had not before. The little drummer, Blake, nodded his bald head, and started in to relate some of his exploits and went on: “You bet I wouldn't lay down for no man that walks here in the west or anywhere, Most of you fellows are — = V[RYIHING 10 BUILD A HoUS \ M Largest Stock of Lumber in_.'S\outh\ Florida i Brick Lime Cement Plaster -l IT WILL PAY TO SEE US! ~ Lumber Shingles Lath - The Paul & Waymer Lumber Company Office: y PRICES RIGHT from the east, I take it, and go through | to the coast; but I do business round these parts; and I've mixed with bad men in bad places, and I've never laid down, but I've made some of them do it.” - He lit a cigar with a self-satisfled air. The others said little, though one or two winked slyly, but all were of the same mind evidently; for when the conversation had ended, thoroughly killed By Blake, they drifted together in another part of the coach, after Blake had gone back into one of the rear coaches. “Say, but that little pup gave me one gigantic pain.. If he saw a bad man, he'd crawl down his shirt to get out of sight. He don’t know a gun from a_hole. in the ground,” one of them exclaimed heatedly. The others concurred. “This is a deadly tiresome ride. Can't we get up a little excltement, and make him the goat?” another asked, eager for some excitement. They sat in thought for a few mo- ments, then a young member of the group spoke up. ‘“I've got it! We ought to make a regular jack of hlm to pay him for that hot air, and take some of the swelling out of him. What do you say to this? One of you go back and fix up ' kinda rough, you know, some old duds, get a gun, and while the train’s going slow up the ridge, come ln and hold the bunch up!” Brownell, an engineer, was to be the robber, because he was carying a rough sult of clothes for mountain work. The train stopped at a watering sta- tion, then began the long hard pull over the Ridge. In the smoker all were reading earnestly except Blake who was look- ing out the window. Suddenly a door opened and glammed, and a masked figure stood before them. “Hands zup!” rang out, sharply in- tonated, Bvery pair of hands went meekly up; Blake's face was a picture of sur- prise. The masked figure came along to each one, and obediently they yielded up their worldly goods. As the rob- ber passed in front of Blake, he, too, gave up his cash. “Aw, come on there Fat” one of the men sang out; “he’s a bad un— give it to him!” A roar of laughter went up. Brownell slipped off his mask, expos- ing a grin that went from ear to ear. “Shut down on the hot air, Beef,” he sald; “and don't come butting in on the conversation of gentlemen unlgss you're asked.” Blake was staring out of the win- dow; he turned, and in a flash he stood in the alsle, gimleteyed and grim, holding in his hand a black big Colt—not the toy in his case. “Quick! hand over that mon,” his words siz- zled. s wlntdnt mon—-it's my joke, nqw! or—" Bro'nell lhmd at him with an angry oath. The gun spat at Mim, and the tall figure collapsed into a seat. As If in answer ahead and back of the smoker, echoed sharp reports. Blake stopped and rified Brownell's pockets, and then one by one he went to the dazed, dumbfounded men. The train was at & standstill. Blake passed at the end of the car, “That was clever, and I went you one better. I'm the real thing. The next time you meet a little Insignificant cuss like me who wants to entertain you with a few yarns—take off your hats!” He vanished. FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH.
