THE WALKING CURE.

He has passed Atlanta, Ga, and
gone 20 Topeka, Kansas-DeMahler--
a man who has Travelled sroucd the
world and all over it on foot. He
walks for pleasure. Sometimes wag-
oner on the road accosts him with
stranger, want lift" He always
replies, "No; rather walk" and some
miles ON he passes the hume Of the
wagner, who by this time has his wife
and children out to look at the man
who would rather walk than ride. DE
Mailer goes trudging on like the
Wandering Jew. He has put 10000
miles behind him since 1862, and has
acquired such a momentum now that
he can't stop. He must walk to be
happy. OF course he stops sometimes
for rest and refreshment and sleep, but
tits only halt. An Atlanta editor
took De Mailer to his house and got
some particulars Of his walks in life
out of him. "
De Mailer is q Virginian. He has
estates that yield him such an income
as enables to go where he pleases and
|
was wounded in the beginning of the
war, and when his wounds healed he
was bent nearly double and was total
dy unable TO walk. He.was rolled up
almost like that being which turns
itself into a ball and wheels from
place to place. He went to Paris, to
get straightened out. The surgeons
operated upon him but, after a fair
trial, they couldn't make his head and
feet stay at their respective ends of
the man. At length they told him that
nothing could efectually cure him but
walking, persistent walking. He re-
solved to try it. He told his doctor
that he was going to walk out of Paris
and leave Frauce on foot. His doc
tor told him he was crazy. He, how
ever, commenced the journey, and
made only 104 yards from his lodg.
ings the first day, with the aid of stick.
The doctor attended him two weeks
on his trip, that is, until he got out OF
Paris. He had then begun to improve
and was filled with glorious hope.
He put his whole soul into his walk.
In month he was Oh the sunny slopes
of the Pyrenees and had begun to
straighten up like man. He walked
on, and on, and on. At length he
was entirely cured and slrode with 6
, firm tread. Thus he walked along
the world and across it, and became
intensely interested in his travels. lie
sailed across the seas, but walked thu
decks of vessels in order to keep biz
foot in. On land he seemed to wall
as naturally MS the winds blow anC
the streams flow, and now he can
stop. He makes pencil sketches 0
the best scenes and remembers every
place he has been in and the name o
somebody he met and talked to. H,
is thoroughly cured of his war wounds
, but many lazy people might thinl
, that the cure is worse than the origi
t nal inhiction.

A we'll known sporting character be-
ing on his deathbed was attended by
friendly divine of somewhat nervous
temperament, who, to console him, ex-
pressed a conviction that he and his
patient would meet hereafter as winged
angels. "Are you sure of that?' in
quired the dying man. "Quite sure"
replied his adviser. "Then I'll fly
you for sovereign" replied the incor.
rigible gambler. An enthusiast of
this sort seems, according to a local
paper, to have greatly distinguished
himself, on the occasion of fire which
lately broke out at the cotton, ,samplipg
Office of a firm in Liverpool. While
the conAagration was at its height, and
the burning cotton was beiug thrown
out of the windows upon the flags be-
low, a number of brokers stood in the
street discussing the sum which the
waste would realize. One among them
offered to bet n guinea that the burnt
cotton would fetch Els, aud, as this
WAS apparently tar beyond its value,
he found no difficulty in finding per.
sons willing to take the bet. This be
did till twenty people had accepted
the wager for guinea each he after
wards went to the sale and bought the
cotton for e16, which he then sold foI
G12, sustaining a loss of "a upon the
purchase, but pocketing sixteen guin.
cas-, as the balance of his profits on
the transaction.
