Is what God’s records show.

And on that mighty ledgerIs writ Sam Davis’ name—

For honor’s sake he would not

makeA compromise with shame.

The great world lay before him,

For he was in his youth.

With love of life young hearts

are rife,

But better he loved truth.He fought for his convictions.And when they stood at bay

He would not flinch or stir oneinch

From honor’s narrow way.

They offered life and freedom

If he would speak the word;

In silent pride he gazed aside

As one who had not heard.The argued, pleaded, threaten-

Hunger a Lost Feeling. I

- Civilized human beings do.most of their eating through ha-J^

hit, and k is r~bad habit. Sav-T--‘4h whnmAlAi—

al to eat comes only ^ the resultof direct effort, do it better and

j

manage to get along withoutphysicians. We are cursed byhaving our victuals too close at

hand.

“A prolific cause of chronicindigestion,’’ says the Hygiene

i

Gazette, “is eating from habit,

and simply because it is meal

time and others are eating.’’ To

eat when not hungry is to eatwithout relish, and food taken

without relish is worse than

wasted.

The aborigine who had to stalkand kill his deer before break-

1

fast suffered none of the modern

!

disorders of the stomach. Nodoubt he went hungry many a

^

time, but to be hungry is far

,

better than to be “food drunk,’’

a term invented by Edison, and

fitly to be applied to most of us

I

most of the time.

1 That goood old feeling called

hunger is in a fair way to fadeinto mere tradition. The aver-

age man perhaps can not saythat he has really felt that feel-

ing once in a dozen years.

To be sure, when a meal is de-

ayed beyond the customary

time, habit protests in an uneasy

feeling which is erroneously sup-

posed to be hunger. But the

genuine, sharp, knawing demand

of the system for food most of

us|left behind with our childhoodl

The United Commercial Trav-elers of America are, perhaps,the best known insurance andfraternal organizations of trav-

eling men in the world, and isgrowing rapidly in all parts ofthe country. Like all other large

bodies the U. C. T’s. are govern-

ed by Supreme and Grand bodies,which meet yearly, at stated pe-riods to attend to the legislative

part of the business for the or-

der. This year our sister city of

Huntington will entertain the

Grand Council, composed of rip-resentatives from Maryland, the

Virginias, Kentucky, and the

District of Columbia, bringing to

that city the largest crowd of

strangers ever seen, and anyone

who knows how the “knights ofthe grip’’ entertain at any time,

at home or abroad, can well im-agine what a great time is in

store for those who attend themeeting in June. The business

sessions will embrace the 8th,

i9th and 10th, but the entire week

will be put in entertaining the

the visitors. The citizens of

Huntington are keen to realize

the importance of such a meet- i

ing, and are lending the. locaj/

committees all possible aid in the

preliminary arrangements for

the big meeting in June next.
