We refer with pride to our latest creation, the "Superior" Razor Strop, which is a consummated achievement of a tonsorial genius, and is the result of twenty years of trial, experimenting and practical knowledge. This Strop practically marks a new era in American strop manufacturing. The methods and care which is exercised in the manufacture of this strop is the limit of human ingenuity. One of our most beneficial treatments is applied to this strop, which is our secret chemical mixture. This mixture penetrates the air spaces between the molecules and contracts the pores of the leather to the utmost, at the same time killing every germ inhabitant of the animal skin.

A good many people still hold the notion that all persons are equally good by nature and might be equally good actually had they but the will to do so. They fail to see that men are born with all degrees of moral capacities and incapacities, and some of them wholly lacking in that regard, just as they are born with all degrees of intellectual endowment, and some of them with none whatever. A man may be an idiot morally as well as intellectually.—Strand Magazine. EXPLAINS MANY THINGS. As a rule a woman can talk much faster, much longer, and with much greater facility than a man, and this power of speech is attributed to the greater strength and solidity of the female chest. A man, when he speaks, fatigues himself four times more than a woman, who, when she talks, expends less effort than when she fans herself.—Woman's Life. SWEET AMENITIES. THE FASHION WEEK Bella—Gracious! My dear! I do hope you're not ill; you look so much older to-night. Stella—I'm quite well, thank you, dear; and you—how wonderfully improved you are! You look positively young. LITTLE PITCHERS. "Children, what makes you so noisy and quarrelsome?" "We ain't quarreling; we're only playing angry?" "What are you playing to be so loud and angry?" "We're playing being papa and mamma, and mamma has been out shopping and papa is just getting the bills." TALKY. "Miss Lowder was in your box party at the theater last week, I hear."

Mr, Jefferson Murphy, who has been sojourning in California and other Western points, is again a resident of our city. Mr. George Mitchell, who has been employed at the Inter-Ocean hotel, has a lucrative position at the Industrial Club. Grandma Phillipps, who has been quite ill, has recovered her usual good health and is able to be out again. Mrs. Helen Thompson, we are glad to report, is able to be out again. For the past two months Mrs, Thompson has been confined to her home, suf: fering from the effects of ptomaine poisoning. Mrs. H. H. Jones, the wife of our pastor, received the sad intelligence on last Thursday that her mother, who lived in Oklahoma, was dead. Mrs. Jones has the sympathy of the entire community in the hour of her bereavement. It is with great pleasure that we chronicle the success of one of our most popular young ladies, Miss Lena B. Hopkins, a graduate of the Chey: enne High School Class of 1906, and who for the past two years has been at Lincoln Institute at Jefferson City, Mo., has the distinction of being se- lected from a large class of 40 stu: dents to deliver the valedictory ad. dress on Commencement day. Miss Hopkins has in the two years she has been in attendance at Lincoln Instl- tute made a wonderful record, and the many friends extend to her heartiest congratulations, A most interesting program was THE STATESMAN, DENVEF, COLORADO. et Ae Se ee en, te tee oe ae we en ee en pe Sunday afternoon. The Scripture ‘lesson was read by Mr. H. C. Jeffer- son, followed by prayer by the pastor. ‘Choice musical selections pertaining to missions were rendered by the so- rset and a question box by Miss Mae ‘smith’s class, followed by song from ‘them, was one of the most instructive features of the occasion. Mr. James Gaskins’ selected reading was listen- ed to with pleasure, as was also the reading by Miss Marthena Palmer. Miss S. Katheryn Thistle raised our ae to a higher plane by her beau- oe rendition of Schubert’s “Seren- ade.” A few choice remarks by Miss Mae Smith, the president of the so- ciety, closed one of the most enjoy- able meetings of the organization. | The entertainment and bazar given by the members of the Sewing Circle, under the efficient management of ‘Mrs. H. H. Jones was a grand affair ‘and a decided success. The church was beautifully decorated in flags, curtains and bunting, and presented a pleasing appearance. The booths were presided over by Mesdames Cooper, Jefferson, Gaskin, Lucas and Miss Ella Pierson, who proved themselves profi- cient salesladies. Dinner was served ‘from 12 o'clock until 12 o'clock at night and was of an unusually delight- fully affair to those who were fortu- ‘nate enough to partake of it. A fine ‘program, under the management of Miss S. Katheryn Thistle, was ren- dered, the prime feature being the crowning of the May Queen, and the “May-pole drill, participated in by the Misses Marthena and Eva Palmer, Mae Wilson, Vivian Taylor and Ruth Robinson and Eunice Ashford, Miss Virgil Gaskin was charming as “Queen of the May,” and was attend- ed by two tiny tots, Amelia Collins and Edith Gaskin, maids of honor. A financial report of the entertainment will be given in next issue. Mrs. P. C. Crutchfield was a delight- ful hostess at a recent meeting of the Searchlight Club. Owing to the dis- ‘tance and the inclemency of the weather, the club was conveyed to and from the cosy home of Mrs. Crutchfield in carriages. The pro- gram rendered was an article on “Rachel,” by Mrs. E. F. Landor, fol- lowed by a discussion of that worthy ‘maid of Biblical times, which was participated in by all present. Musi- ‘eal selections were rendered by Miss ‘Eva B. Hopkins and by Mrs. Wm. Redd, who sang very charmingly. At on close of the program Mrs. Wm. ‘Christian, assisted the hostess in ‘serving a very delicious repast. The annual Thanksgiving sermon, delivered to the members of the G. The annual Thanksgiving sermon, delivered to the members of the G. U. O. O. F. and the H. H. R., by Rev. H. H. Jones last Sunday evening, fs pronounced by many to be the best ever yet delivered to those august bodies. Rev. Jones was both eloquent and instructive and his words were, too, an inspiration to all who had the opportunity of hearing him. The or- ganizations presented a fine appear: ance, as properly regaliaed and other- wise appropriately attired they enter ed the sacred portals of Allen’s A. M. E. chapel. Nr. Jas. Gaskin acted as master of ceremonies and delivered his address i1 an inimitable manner. The H. H. Rath was represented by Mrs. Wm. De vese, whose address was well rendere! and received. Other pleasing fea ures of the program were vocal silos by Mr. H. C. Jeffer- son and Mrs. J. E. Smith, who both sang delightfally. Other musical se- lections were rendered by the choir. The program closed with the closing ode, sung by the members of the two lodges. Master Ed lie Landor on last Sun day received his diploma for promo tion from tie Primary class of Al len’s A. M. E. S. S., into the next class, which is presided over by one of our mos. earnest young church workers, Mit; Mae Smith. Miss Pier son, in a very neat little speech, ex pressed her regrets at parting with Master Eddie, and also highly com. mended him for his ability and faith fulness and recommended with pleas ure to the teicher of Class No. 2. Miss Pierson has proven herself a faithful and efficient instructor and is dearly loved by the tiny tots. CONDOLENCE.

An amusing story of the capture of a thief through the instrumentality of a mule is reported from Jersey City. While the thief was busily wringing chickens' necks, the animal started kicking furiously at the chicken house, and before the thief could escape had brought down the roof and walls upon him. Entangled in the wire, and half-stunned by bricks and wood, the man fell an easy capture to the inmates, who had rushed out on hearing the noise. American Woman in German Eyes. American girls, whether born or merely brought up in America, evidence the same independence of judgment and the same complete self-reliance. It is hard to say whether this is the result of the education in the public schools and colleges or in their freedom from that condition of legal and social subserviency to which the gentler sex is doomed in older countries.—Max von Brandt in Berlin Deutsche Revue. Sickness Caused Repentance. A somewhat amusing tale of an interrupted double elopement is reported from Turin, Italy. Two daughters of a Turin merchant who eloped with two young men and some of their father's money, have been moved to repentance by sea-sickness. They took ship at Marseilles, but were so terribly ill that they implored the captain to put them ashore at the first port of call. They then took the nearest route home. The Tear Cure. A good cry is a solace to many women. It steadies the nerves, and, added to a cup of tea and an interesting story, forms their idea of supreme happiness. Arising from the perusal of their books with red eyes, swelled features and a sopping pocket handkerchief, they feel their time has not been wasted.—Lady Vollet Greville in London Chronicle. Humorous Robbers. After holding up five men in a saloon in Chicago recently, several young desperadoes forced their victims into an ice-box and turned on a talking machine to drown the sound of their cries. They then made their escape and left the phonograph playing "We've Been Here but Gone."—The Musical Age. Should Drink More Water. Water is a nerve food. It has a distinctly soothing effect when sipped gradually, as one can test for oneself. Moreover, the hygienic effects of water are not confined to the female sex, for as a matter of fact men would be all the better if they imbibed more of it. To Raise Sunken Vessels. Compressed air is recommended by Cosmos, Paris, as the best means of raising sunken vessels, and the journal says the old methods should be abandoned. It points to a number of big boats which have been rescued from the deep this way. His Decision.

Result of 15 years experience in tire making. No danger from THORNS, CACTUS, PINS, NAILS, TACKS or GLASS. Serious punctures, like intentional knife cuts, can be vulcanized like any other tire. Two Hundred Thousand pairs now in actual use. Over Seventy-five Thousand pairs sold last year. DESCRIPTION: Made in all sizes. It is lively and easy riding, very durable and lined inside with a special quality of rubber, which never becomes porous and which closes up small punctures without allowing the air to escape. We have hundreds of letters from satisfied customers stating that their tires have only been pumped up once or twice in a whole season. They weigh no more than an ordinary tire, the puncture resisting qualities being given by several layers of thin, specially prepared fabric on the tread. That "Holding Back" sensation commonly felt when riding on asphalt or soft roads is overcome by the patent "Basket Weave" tread which prevents all air from being squeezed out between the tire and the road thus overcoming all suction. The regular price of these tires is $8.50 per pair, but for advertising purposes we are making a special factory price to the rider of only $4.80 per pair. All orders shipped same day letter is received. We ship C.O.D. on approval. You do not pay a cent until you have examined and found them strictly as represented.

COLORADO’S DAUGHTERS TO THE FRONT. Three of the six recitals given by the advanced piano class of the music department of Western University this year are being given by Colorado young ladies. April 28th Miss Ethel Minor, of Denver, conducted a very talented program. She has developed wonderfully during the past year and performed admiringly upon the piano. In execution and memory she is fine. She was assisted by Mr, Edward At- kinson, tenor; Miss Sophia Fine, so- prano; and a mandolin, guitar and violin cello trio played by Messrs. Ed- ward Rucker, Clyde Audrews and John Sellars. May 4th Miss Eva Jones of Denver rendered a very artistic pro- gram. Miss Jones’ progress on the piano has been most remarkable. In technique and execution she displays the traits of a professional. Miss Jones was assisted by E. S. Plummer, violinist; Sophia Fine, soprano; Clif- ford McAdams, of Colorado Springs, violinist; and Webster Lawson. May 18th Miss Eva Cruter, of Trinidad, wil, show the rapid progress she has made in the difficult selections on the piano during this school year. She will be assisted by Miss Luada Moore, of Canon City, violinist; Prof. W. H. Hammond, cornetist, and the ladies’ quartette of W. U. The high standard reached by the young people under the tutorship of Prof. Robt. Jackson shows the won- derful development that Western University is making in a substantial way as a preferred center of advanced and useful learning.

A young school-teacher had her greatest trial in assisting the children to sort out their rubber shoes when it was time for them to go home. She hit on a plan of having some pigeonholes made and each one marked, then each child knew exactly where to put the overshoes and not have them mixed with others. The same idea would be good for home and with a few boards the boxes could be arranged low in the closet to hold these articles which have a way of getting separated and not easily found when most needed. One woman had the top of the lower step on the stairway fitted with hinges to be lifted and it was found most convenient for a rubber shoe box for the children. HIGH ART IN THIEVERY. There are more ways than one for the slick thief to operate. A singing teacher in Paris received a gentlemanly, finely dressed young man the other day, who came to make inquiries about the operatic stage for his talented young brother, who was then in the country. The singer believed him and stated his terms for instruction, and after a brief conversation arranged for the first lesson. Shortly after the visitor's departure it was found that with him had gone several precious little works of art, including two bronze elephants and three miniatures, worth in all $2,000. Such is art. QUEER. "Funny thing about a man's tongue," said Joakley. "Go ahead," said Markley, let's have it." "When it's thick the excuses he makes to his wife are too thin."—Catholic Standard and Times.

Within the last few weeks The Statesman has sent notices to many of its out-of-town subscribers of their indebtedness. A recent order of the Post Office Department, regulating the matter admissable to second-class mail privileges, compels all newspapers to keep its subscription lists paid up. Many have responded to our letters, and the few who have not done so will please do so at once. It is essential that we conform to the postal regulations and we can easily do so with the co-operation of our patrons. Let each one who received a letter from us make acknowledgment of it today. DO IT NOW LEST YOU FORGET. THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORAD MEASUREMENTS OF A SPIRIT Questioner Wanted Details as to Exact Proportions of His Departed Friend. A man of St. Joseph, Missouri, relates a story in connection with a spiritualistic meeting once held in that town. A man named Daniel Miller, who was some six feet seven inches in height, had died recently. The spirit of Daniel was called for by some one at the seance mentioned. When it had appeared and announced its readiness to reply to any questions, some one asked: "Are you in Heaven?" "Yes," came from the shade of Daniel. "Are you an angel, Dan?" "Yes." At this juncture the questioner paused, having apparently exhausted his fund of questions. But to the amusement of all he suddenly ad ded: "And what do you measure from tip to tip?"—Youth's Companion. GETTING RID OF THEM. "Pay attention, now," said the school-teacher, addressing his class during the geography lesson. "The population of China is so great that two Chinamen die every time we take a breath." This information made a deep impression on the juvenile scholars and the teacher was particularly struck with the uncomfortable appearance of one small boy at the foot of the class. His face was flushed, and he was puffing furiously. "What is the matter?" inquired the school-teacher with alarm. "What on earth are you doing, Tommy?" "Killing Chinamen, please, sir," was the answer. "I don't like them foreigners, so I'm getting rid of just as many as I can!" HE WAS DISGRUNTLED. A naval officer of distinction, after months of consideration, submitted to the secretary of the navy a plan for the improvement of the administration of the battleship fleet. It was returned to him "disapproved." His anger flamed up at the way in which he had been turned down. "There you have it," he said bitterly. "You work like thunder for the government and even your recommendations meet with no favor. I feel, however, there is one more thing I should recommend to the department—that is the organization of a veterinary corps." "Ah, that is for the sea horses," it was suggested. "Not at all," was the response. "That is for the jackasses that are and both fore and aft in the naal service." Automobile for Hire J. H.

Whereas, The great and supreme Ruler of the universe, has in His infinite wisdom removed from among us our worthy and esteemed coworker, Mrs. Tillie Ames; and, Whereas, In the discharge of duties in Zion Baptist Sunday school it is eminently befitting that we record our appreciation of her services. Resolved, That the aid given this Sunday school by counsel, contribution and service will be held in grateful remembrance. Resolved, That the sudden removal of such a friend from our midst leaves a vacancy that will be deeply realized by all members of this Sunday school. Resolved, That we in deepest sympathy with the bereaved relatives of the deceased express hope that even so great a loss to us all may be overruled for good by Him who doeth all things well. Resolved. That a copy of these resolutions be spread upon the record of the Sunday school, a copy be printed in the local papers and a copy be sent to the bereaved family. A dear companion from our side, To realms of endless day; Her voice no more will join with ours, The song of praise below, It wakes a purer, sweeter strain, Where only pleasures flow. When gathered on the Sabbath morn', Her vacant place we view, We'll thing how bright the world she treads. And in her steps pursue; Be still, let every heart be still, And all our sorrow quell— We'll bow submissive to His will, Who doeth all things well. LUTHER WALTON, CHAS. CLARK, MABEL FORE. CONDOLENCE. Whereas, It has pleased the Almighty God to remove from our midst our president, Sister Tillie Ames of the Junior Missionary Band. Whereas, We, her sisters and coworkers, feel deeply grieved, yet we know that God doeth all things for the best, our president was a good and faithful officer when her health would permit, always ready to perform her duty when called upon, she was loved and esteemed by all who knew her. We, the members of the Junior Missionary Band, deem it proper that we should place on record our appreciation of her services as our president. Resolved, That in the death of Sister Ames the Junior has lost an honest and upright officer, she has passed away to a better land. Resolved, That the members of the Junior of Zion Baptist church tender our heartfelt sympathy to the family and friends. Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be sent to the family and entered in our local papers and spread upon the minutes of our Junior Band. --- THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO. Yes, our president has gone, But not forgotten. Never shall her memory fade, Sweet thoughts shall ever Linger around the grave Where she is laid. In silence she suffered. In patience she bore, Till God called her home To suffer no more. PHILETUS FITZPATRICK, STELL HILL, ARLETHIA REYNOLDS, Committee. LAJUNTA, COLO. Rev. W. H. Prince preached an able sermon Sunday evening at Hubbard chapel, taking as his text "Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." Mrs. L. V.

Some persons call him “Light Fingered Billie” because of his ability to get away with the goods. At the time of the recent Demo- cratic gathering at the Grand hotel, when crowds in the lobby were more interested in the outcome of the chairmanship fight than in their own welfare, Holt reaped a fine har- vest of watches, stickpins, and other articles of personal adornment. At one time he had eight gold watches, with chains and fobs at- tached, in his trousers pocket. These he exhibited with pride as a_ testi- monial of his prowess. But a sad sequel came when the honest picker of pockets sought to return the ap- propriated jewelry. Two watches bore no identification marks, and “Billie” had forgotten from whom he had lifted them. It took the good natured host two hours to find the rightful owners of the stolen timepieces —lIndianapolis News.

Thoroughly English as she is in taste, she, of course, wears only the most severe and serviceable costumes of golf, yachting and all sorts of outdoor sports; but in the evening and at great public fune- tions her toilettes are splendid and her jewels the admiration of every- one.

The fault can only be corrected by notification. No paper should be as late as Monday in reaching the subscriber. Lest somebody believe Denver has had an honest business-like administration under Mayor Speer, because the specific instances of graft and incompetence do not come home close. The Statesman gives the following facts and vouches for them upon the knowledge gained at the time of the tranction and since verified by statements of T. J. Riley, chairman of the deacon board of Zion Baptist church. At the time the city was seeking a site for the public bath house, now located on the two lots on the corner of Twentieth and Curtis streets, it made an offer to Zion Baptist church of $13,500 for three of its lots on the corner of Twentieth and Arapahoe streets. A counter proposition was submitted by the church of $14,500 for the lots. It was not accepted but a deal was made with Zang, the brewer, not for three lots but for two, and the price made was $17,500. But the whole of the colored population is familiar with the location of the Zion church property and knows well that if anything it was more valuable than the other corner of the block where the bath house was built. By what distorted vision, Mayor Speer saw more value, to be specific, $3,000 more and one lot less, in the Zang property than in the church lots, only he can tell. Maybe this is the source of some of the brewer's campaign contribution to the "business" ticket. Who said Speer won't graft? With men in his administration who are notorious enemies of good society, with men in charge of departments whose pleasantest task has been to pollute the ballot and steal elections, the claim of Mayor Speer to an honest business administration is ridiculous. Who believes in an administration that owes its very existence to its alliance with crime? Who believes in the business honesty of the official who permits vice to be protected by the police in defiance of law? There is a "divvy" going to somebody and Mayor Speer knows who is guilty. Who gets the graft?

The speakers of the evening were Horace Phelps, candidate for mayor; C. A. Franklin, Attorney General Dickson, John W. Springer and A. K. Vickery, candidate for auditor. There was also singing by Clarence C. Clark, I. H. Harper and Prof. Hike. From the minute the Progressive band played the opening selection to midnight, there was enthusiasm on tap. The flimsy claims of Democracy for good government, for fairness to negroes, for business administration, received a grilling. The meeting was a notable success and reflects credit upon the whole club, and especially upon the committee in charge, of which Thos. Campbell was chairman, assisted by A. S. Newsome, H. Hinkle, J. J. Manuel, I. H. Harper, T. J. Riley, B. P. Johnson. It was a splendid outpouring of the good people of the city and the ministers of the city were conspicuous on the platform. ALLIANCE HOLDS GOOD MEETING AT LUCAS' HALL. There could not have been any more of the real and genuine enthusiasm and spirit evinced than was shown by the people, friends and members of the Alliance Sunday when the proposition of getting a home came up for consideration. Many people volunteered to give musicals, entertainments, etc., to raise the necessary money to pay the hall rent. If the hall can be secured the Alliance no doubt will rent it for all kinds of amusement. The paper, "What Shall We Do To Be Saved?" by Mr. A. G. Fallings, could not have been improved upon. The paper had many good thoughts that a just comment upon a few would only be another way to disparage the other good ideas. The main thought was to build character upon the development of the moral, mental and material and all else will be open to you; that the problem was an individual one. SHALL THE RACE TRY LYNCH LAW ON THE REPUBLICAN PARTY? It is so easy to criticise, to tear down, that it is not remarkable that this year, the opposition to the Republican party has by fair and foul means won many Negroes to their cause. The Statesman believes in the destiny of the Republican party. Not all members of that party are kindly disposed to us, but the great bulk of our friends are allied with it, and our hope lies with it rather than with Democracy. To the end that it may win success at the polls, we offer this space for contributions from our readers bearing on the political situation, with only the usual restrictions of size, legibility, etc. [Name not visible] PROF. ALBERT ROSS. One of the native sons of Colorado who is making good in the states of Kansas and Missouri is Albert Ross, of Colorado Springs, Colo. Prof. Ross has been director of the Business Course department at Western University, Quindaro, Kan., for the past three years. Last summer he visited the larger towns in Colorado in the interest of getting more students and was quite active in causing 26 young men and women to attend there during the present school year. Prof. Ross has brought this department up to the standard of institutions of its kind in the West. The large number of boys and girls sent out of this department each year to face and fight life's rugged battles are living testimonials as to the capabilities of this brilliant young educator. The Topeka Plaindealer refers as follows: "Perhaps the best display ever witnessed at a meeting of the National Negro Business League in its eight yearly sessions was that of Western University, under the personal supervision of Prof. Albert Ross, in the Kansas State Capitol building at Topeka, Kan., last August. The Colorado delegates will remember that the display consisted of four two-color Remington Typewriters, a Burroughs Adding Machine, a Combination National Cash Register, and a large amount of legal commercial documents prepared by students of this department. The work showed skill and careful training. The display occupied a large hall leading into the House of Representatives chambers and was the center of attraction for all who visited the state house. The machines were operated by Miss Willa Glenn, of Galena, Kan., now with Hues, ton & Calloway, colored lawyers, Kansas City, Mo.; Miss Mable Vaughan, of Quindaro, lately with The Rising Sun Publishing Co., Kansas City, o.; Mr. George Williams of Denver, Colo., now private secretary to President French, of Western University, and Mr. Eugene Vaughan, of Kansas City, now stenographer in director of Industries' office, and secretary to the agricultural faculty at Tuskegee Institute, Alabama. "These graduates wrote letters from dictations for visitors, prepared "copy" for newspaper men, and did a great deal of the committee work of the convention. For speed and accuracy they made good, and their thoroughness in every detail is a credit to them and the whole race. Prof. Ross has other graduates in Chicago, St. Joseph and Denver, and in Kansas and Missouri, who are getting results in a creditable way. His work in behalf of "Nocturne" by Clyde Andrews of Denver is another great feat to his credit. As a result Negro planists all over the United States and President Roosevelt and the Kansas and Colorado members in Congress are acquainted with these beautiful strains. At Western University he has stood behind many Colorado students and has encouraged and inspired them to gain the front ranks where most of them can be found in every phase of school work. Colorado has reason to be proud of this son, who was born in Las Animas county and educated in the schools of Las Vegas, New Mexico, and Colorado Springs, Colo. MRS. HOPSON ENTERTAINS. At 2216 Washington street last week was the scene of a very elegantly served 8-course dinner given by Mrs. Hopson in honor of Prof. Britt. The following responded with toasts: Rev. and Mrs. J. B.

Power. The mistake of the average think- er is to believ: that life is a fin- ished product jiresented to us from some power outside us. On the con- trary, life is a jiuid set of circum- stances into wh ch we walk with full power to push, or shove, or solidify, or freeze, or boil, acording to will. To begin to wil , then, as soon as we take stock of sirrounding circum- stances, is the main interest in ex- istence. If we set ourselves to op- erating upon ¢ rcumstances without a definite plan of action, without quite knowing vhether it is boiling or freezing we want to do, we ar apt to make but little progress. But even for a man who has frozen what he meant to boil there is still hope; circumst: nces are so fluid, so willing to be di alt with, that all he has to do is tc apply a greater amount of heat to his lump of ice, ultimately to reich the boiling point.

The suprema:y of duty is one of the insistent fa ts of life. its calls are clamant ani! will not be denied, and its claims ire often tyrannous. Like the gall.y-slave of ancient Greece we somtimes seem to our- selves to be cha ned to the oar, while the constant drudgery to which we are bound both oxhausts the strength and embitters the spirit.
