I’ll east the anchor—patience—out, i And wish—but wait for day. _ ’ Uod help us to learn how to wal}: will Bat what about running with patience' Does it not call for quite another school im of ourselves, just as running on the athletic held demands a training peculiar to itself? Even a fas! walker is not necessarily a good runner. The requirement ■n this case <s active ratoer than negative. Here is needed not the grace of repression, at iu the other rase, put of cultivation, of application or concentration rather than of resignation. In walking itith patience, the weight* and the brakes both must be applied tu order to hold the spirit bark and keep it apace with the body. But to run with patience, the weighta need to be laid aside and the brakes removed that the inner may keen abreast with the outward, that our ambitions, our hopes, cur aima. may fly forward toward the goal, ''nor.' - as the line of the old hymn tuns, "tire

amid the heavenly road.'

The very pace of the runner is itself the foe ot patience. It calls, secmmg.y, for impetuouaitt, and the more imnetii; out the runner, we are aecuitomed to tnink.' the better. Its certain effect is to heat the blood and hre the nerves. Behold tbr athlete with every muscle taught, every line of hit face bard set,, his eye mteiue him oa! How can he. .Or poiseio! mid self-controlled ? Indeed, patience would seem impossible, and impatience the very price of the prize. And vet every' athletic man before me knows this is the talk a novice. If there is anything the ruuuer needs it is self-control, to be able •'to keep hia btad,” as we asy, to command his nerrea, to hold his strength in check at the first and le’. it Out toward the finish, to keep from being unnerved by the shouts of the crowd, to be equal to any nnioreaeen turn the race may take or any condition before unreekoaed with that might appear. And sloe* it act always turn out that a running match is at bottom chiefly a question of aeH-command—, muscle, wind, nerve, mind, yes, and beatt —and the winner ever found to be the one whs has run the race with the greatest ***Voung men, this is a running age. and a
