Some credit it to Elbert Hubbard. But he has been eliminated as he did not begin to | write until after the quotation had be- -| come famous. Then Emerson's works were looked into. But no comfort has been found there. But who cares who wrote it? It fits the Boy Scouts, That is the only reason it appears in our thoughts to- day. Business men are peculiar ducks. To say they are egotistical is putting it so mildly 'as $0 be complimentary. They have such confidence in their own powers that one cannot interest them in a proposition which does not entail miraculous accomplishment. They really believe that they can work miracles. So when a gang of fellows goes parading by bearing their miracles with them, the Kiwanis Club blinks its eyes, stares, wonders, and then, as if Seized-by one common impulse, falls in behind to do what it can, as tickled a8 a boy carrying water for the ele- phant at the circus." It's hard to fool men, But you can't fool boys at all. And when men real- ize the work of the Boy Scouts, they are not being fooled. Nelther are the boys who compose the Boy Scouts. "They get training, mentally and physically, and if there are any other ways they get them too--real down- right valuable stuff, that makes men out of them. And they like it, just as our boys who entered the army liked the intensive training that was handed out to them by their superior officers.

An American poultry farmer went over to England to have a look round the poultry farms there and see where the farmers were making mistakes. He did not hesitate to tell how far advanced was the atr of poultry keep- ing in the States, and spun several very tall yarns 'on that subject. Twenty chickens from twelve eggs appeared to be an everyday occur- rence in the United States, if the stories he told could be believed. But a bluff old English farmer was game for him. "Happen, maister," dred chickens hatched by one hen at a setting?" "Waal," answered the American, "1 can't say that I have, but----" "Well, then, listen here, maister; happen I have," returned the farmer. "Down Ipswich way we allus fill a bar- rel with eggs and set the hen on the bunghole!" NOTHING TO EQUAL . . For Sprains and Bruises.
