THE ONE ;WHO CANNOT WORK In many, very many households, there are those who cannot work will never be able to do much toward earning their living. It is hard upon the healthy to be thrown upon the world without money what then about these afflicted ones? If there is such a one in your home perhaps the dearest one you have—are you providing for its future when the hour comes when time for you will have become eternity? That man alone can die in peace who has provided protection for his family when he is no longer able to protect them himself FIRST NATIONAL BANK Decatur. Indiana. P. W. SMITH. C. A DUGAN President.

HE FINISHED HIS WORK By J. A. TIFFANY. The man was old and broken in spirit. His life had been a failure, as all lives are, measured by the degree in which they fulfill the dreams of youth. At two-and-twenty he had mistaken the •flush of enthusiasm tor the fire of genius. After a quarter of a century's devotion to small parts in thirdrate theatrical companies, he had been forced to the conclusion that a man gets no more, or less, than his laboi is worth; and that his own labor was worth very little. His wife had been beautiful. Now, she was a poor, faded, common-place creature. Her illusions, too, were all gone, like her beiuty; and, worse than that, the man's illusions In regard tc her were dead also. She had no more talent for actins than bad he; and they both knew it now. Os gentle birth, she still retained some traces of refinement, in spite of her long sojourn in Bohemia. But ths novelty, the charm, the mystery of the life were gone. Every illusion had been destroyed save one; and to that they clung with desperate tenacity. At an early period in their mauled life the man had conceived a great literary project. "I've been thinking, Evelyn.” he had said one day. "of writing a historical account of the drama from its first in ception down to the present day Imagine the possibilities of such a work!” •Splendid!" the woman had ex claimed. "Why don't you begin at once?” And he had begun that very day. He knew then that it was no mean task this that he had set himself. It meant much reading, research, condensing, writing, re-writing and writing again. Not a book that a man could rattle of! in six months or a year. The one illusion that the hard reali ties of life had failed to dissipate was this: That though both were failures at acting, yet one day the man was to achieve fame for himself and a competence for them both by the pub : ration of bis gn at h■ -1• >ry *f <I drama -the dedication to a grateful world of his life’s work. For twenty years and more he hat’ stuck stoically to his task. Often the last nickel went for pa per, while the children were crying for bread. Present necessities wen forgotten, or ignored, in the anticipa tlon of comforts to be bought througi the sale of Reginald's life work. “I have finished It at last, Evelyn,’ the man announced one day—one day while they were in Baltimore. have finished my life's work ” For three months he awaited the publishers' decision, calling upon there at intervals, only to be told that hit manuscript would receive the earliest attention possible. Three long, weary anxious months; and then the man took to his bed In a high fever. H< was delirious, and raved about hit book. — ' Finished, finished!” he would shoul xultingly. “1 have finished my life's work!”—and another time he would repeat the same word*, with a wal' of anguish and despair. Then the woman passed her cooling hand across his brow, and sought to comfort him by saying his life's work was only just begun. One evening as he lay helpless on his pillow, the crimson rays of the setting sun shone suddenly Into the rootnaud lighted up his pallid face, handfotne even in emaciation, lie started up to bis elbow, with wide staring eyes, exclaiming: ''Finished—finished! I have fin :shed my life's work. I am going home ” And the tears that welled to Eve lyn's eyes had fallen from them to her cheeks, she looked once more upon hm face and saw his words were true. The man was dead. He had finished his life's work. He had gone home.
And while the woman sat In silent grief, gazing on the dead face of him whom she had loved so well, there came a gentle tap upon the door. It was Mr. Hayes, an elderly gentle mnn from the publishers’ office, who had called once or twice before to In quire after the health of the author it the bulky manuacripL "At last, my dear lady." ho aid. "I rm able to report that our house has tree pled your husband's life work." "Your house?" the woman echoed, failing at Drat to recognize her visitor ar comprehend hia meaning the one, cruel sense of widowhood Overwhelming all things else. Then, as the recollection of the fatal book that had sapped her busband's life away came back to her with bitter memories, she said: "Your house? Too late—too late! He haa gone to nnothor house. There hie life's work can be judged the best. His life work will be accepted or rejected. In bls father's house." (Copyright, by Imily Htory Bub. Co.) Something to Think About. Laurenco D'Orsay is telling of a time when a brother comedian, and Blmoelf were comparing the else of their respective chests and biceps In D'Orsay's dressing-room one evening. 'Feel the muscles of my neck.” D'Orsay said. "Put your fingers around my throat." The other gripped D'Orxay's throat while the latter set hie teeth and centra ted all the muscles. He MOSed much impressed by the display, and D'Orsay says he expected tome compliment to his muscular de- j velopment. All the other said, how•ver. was. "D'Orsay. they will hare a oother to bang you."
