Getting into Condition.
As the motor ear approached the street | corner, a young man sprang directly in front -| of it, and, waving his arms, cried : " Now, i come on, will you?" j The car struck him squarely in the chest , and threw him 10ft ahead. Rising quickly, | he rushed back at the car and was thrown ahead again. He was about to make another rush, when a policeman caught hold of him. " What's the matter with you?" growled the officer. " Off your head, eh?" " Not at all," replied the young man. " I was just getting myself into condition for the big football match this afternoon."
