Take a walk through a cemetery and you will pass the last resting place ot the man who blew in the muzzle of a gun to see if it was loaded. A little farther down the slope Is buried tiie crank who tried to show how close he could pass In front of amoving train In strolling about you see the modes1 monument of the hired girl whostaite the fire with kerosene, and the gras covered knoll that covers what is left of the little boy who put a comb under a mule's tail. The tail shaft over the man who blew out the gas casts a shadow across the boy who tried to jump on a moving train. Side by side, the etiierlal creature who always had hert-orstt luced to the last hole and the intelligent idiot who rode a bicyelelt in lit si n lOini'iutessleepon undisturbed In sweet repose is a doctor who tool-, his own medicine. There, with a tup of an o d shuehox driven over his head lies the rich old man who married a young wife. , Away over there by a side gate reposes a boy who fished on Sunday, and the woman who kepi strychnine side by side with the bak ing powder in the cupboard. The man who stood in front of a mowing ma chine to oil the cycle Is quiet now, aud lie rests by the side of the careless brakeman who fed himself into a seventy-ton engine. Over in the corner of the fence in the potter's-field may be seen the bleaching bones of the many men who, during life, thought they were just a little better than anybody else on earth. -. . .
