Sure, business is not as good as it
uas a year or two ago. But hat of t
it? All life from the dawn of the I
human germ has been ups and

downs since the burst of creation.
Today's depression is nothing ne i
;here have been hard times befon !
and there will be hard times again 1
and again, all through the coming
centuries. j
Have you been knocked down by
this particular slump of 1920-21?

Sh i:i't a car with a pedigree and
she's old very old indeed; j
Her lines are low and her speed i,
slow, a sort of a "has-been" steed:
I've had her repainted, renickled too,
but she still looks about the same,
She runs at times, and her springs
are chimes, and Betsv's her Chris
tian name.
She sputters and sulks, she kicks and
bucks, and she has a consumptive
cough ;
She often backs on the street-car
tracks and the cop has to push her
off:
She goes like the wind on a long
down-grade and coasts like a gull
at sea ;
We're Jack and Jill and we love our
hill, but down it must alwavs be.
So I search for roads that are smooth
and straight, and 1 skirt all the
hills and dales;
1 rtever roam very far from home,
for somehow mv courage fails;
I live in the clouds when I journey
forth, though the clouds are an
other's dust,
But I grip my wheel with a Spartan
zeal and say, "In the Lord I trust!"
And often, how often, they've towed
me home at the cost of a five or
ten !
I'd dream of the day of the one-hoss
shay, and wish I'd been living
then.
And oh, the abuse that I've had to
bear when we'd block up a road
or pass!
They'd howl and groan: "Get the
ether cone!" But I knew she
wanted gas.

"Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
1 thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced or cried aloud.
Undct the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody but unbowed.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments

I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul."

Lincoln's Birthday.
A day of joy, a holiday;
A day in festal colors dressed
To honor one who knew not play,
Nor ever tasted rest!
Oh, man of sorrows and of tears,
Would we could bring to you
Back through the pathway of the
years
One touch of comfort true!
Would that your eyes might pene

Through all the clouds of war and
hate,
And mists that intervene
Into fhe hearts of all the throng
Of living men to find
Your name and fame the first among
The treasures of mankind!

AS dealers in sporting goods, we want to do
XJL all we can to contribute to the success cf
your hunting season. We want to do more
than sell you our good3. We want you to
get your share of the game that is to be had in
this section. ,
For this reason we are recommending to your
use this season the famous Winchester Shells.
By the Winchester sys
tem of waddinfi, the shot
pattern is unbroken by es
caping gas-blast or pieces
of wadding. The pellets
cover a 30-inch target so
thoroughly at 40 yards,
that no bird could get
through without being hit
three or four times.
We recommend these
shells to your use with
the v.tmost confidence,
feeling that whatever the
weather conditions may
be, these shells will play
true to form and give the
best results that can be
had from any shell on the
market.
Come in today and look
over our new stock.
