There's no rule about it. I've seen men of long tested sameness go all to -pieces after big loslngs; seen them suddenly struck speechless, as` weak as children, with their lips trembling like those of women who are about to cry. On the other hand, I've seen chaps with low tore- heads and weak chins, and reputations for crawshiug and backing water in tight places, stand four square to the nishing `wrenches of long runs of fearful luck and take their bitter medicine with hearts ap- . parontly as brave as their faces were weak.

He spent about half his life in prison because he would say what he thought was right, regardls of consequences to himself. In one of the brief intervals when he was out of prison, and when his popularity ran high, a paper. l Homme Libre, was started for him. He was made the sole responsible head otit. One day he took the paper up as soon as it. came out, and his eye hap- pened to fall one conspicuous advertise- ment, which read thus: . ` The best pills are X-- s pills."
