L Rrsngh Bat5ing Story.

An officer named Verdier was Gel
ebrated III his garrison for winning
all his bets. None of his comrades
could boast Of ever having been sue
cesstul. and so at last no one cared
to bet with him. One day Verdier
was transferred to another regiment,
but the fame of his peculiar luck had
already preceded him. After a sup
per rendered by his comrades on the
evening of his arrival, when cham
payne had made its appearance, Gen.
B-called out:
''Isit really true, Verdier, that you
win all your bets9"
"Yes, General"
"But how the deuce do you do it 2"
ooh, very simple. / am a physi-
ognomist, and / bet only when I am
quite sure"
"You are physiognomist? Well,

of it-perhaps duel" Hrsal

"The gentlemen present are the
Witnesses" Z.
With these words the General pro-
ceeded without mere ado to divest
himself OF his coat and shirt, when a
close scrutiny by all present revealed
the fact that there was no trace of
a wound by sword or ball.
"You have lost your bet Verdier,"
shouted the General resuming his
garments.
81 have indeed, lost this one. Men
may err sometimes" @s
With chuckle theGeneral put the
money in his pocket. After he had
reached home, he at once wrote to
his old chum, the General in COM
mand of Verdier's regiment
"The story of Verdier's luck is all
humbug. He has just made bet Of
300 francs that had wound in my
side, and of course he lost it." a9'
The answer came back: te ~

prevail, and there will be no danger that
