THE NATURE OF MAN. How the Mind In Age Reverts to Boyhood Boy-hood Triumphs. The right kind of a boy doesn't care about being a president or a prime minister when ho becomes a man. To be a great fighter or a great ball player covers the, remotest ends of bis ambition. Then when ho is a man and his mind Is swinging In Its greater orbit, ho suddenly finds that ho has a heart and a stomach and that his limbs move less swiftly. He Is consoled con-soled by the reach and agility of his brain. And toward tho last, when his work Is all done nnd the few remaining re-maining days arc spent In looking backward, he sees far beyond tho achievements of his manhood; docs not regard the Impress upon his tlmo which his mind has made, but fondles again the physical successes of his glowing years tho running races and the swimming pools! He may have taken a city in his summit days, yet ho tolls his children's children of ho little conquests wng ago on tho hillside.
