about these things-how you'd hate to marry
him If you didn't just worship the ground he
walked on; and yet svoui d feel badly about the

enough for US all. You and mamma and Fred

her, and was left alone with my benefactor.
The roses fell out Of his hand. He scanned
me at first with the eye Of physician. He felt
my pulse, my forehead, my hands, my feet; he
watched me for fully ten minutes, his face soft
ening the while from the Asculapian rigidity to
an ineffable tenderness.
At last he took long breath, and seating
himself In my mothers chair he pushed back
his hair from his forehead. I could see how
gray it had grown. I could see the lines In his

SuvarOfR.

SuVaFOfks
From the United Service Magazine.
His features were firm, but harsh Of ex-
preston. Although so short, he was manly
and military Of bearing, pridng himself upon
his soldierly appearance and department. In
conduct he was odd, and even uncouth and
brusque to eccentricity. He allowed himself no
self-indulgence or luxury Of living, his daily
habit being to rise at daybreak and rouse his
camp by growing like cock at the entrance of
his tent. II he failed to awaken before sunrise,
an orderly had directions to throw pail Of
water over him in his bed as deserved punish
ment for laziness and lesson thereafter to be
less tardy in getting up and setting about the
duties Of the day. At table, If he fingered

was the generals wonted inquiry. by that OF
Marshal Suvarof." was the reply. ''Then," the
general would say. Rising, 'he must be obeyed."
That his oddities had some express end in
view, even if concealed at the moment, is seen
from the following anecdote: During the Polish
campaign, finding himself with very email
body of troops face to face with a strong force
ofthe enemy, he discovered a spy among his
suite, and, with his usual quickness Of re-
sources, Instantly resolved to make use of him
to extricate his command from the perilous
situation. He straightway issued an order of
the day, to the effect that at the first cock
Growing he should march to the attack. The
spy at once went over to the other side with
the information. The same afternoon, however,
Suvarof started up and ran through his camp
growing Justify, whereat his troops sprang i'm
mediatey to arms and rushed against the
enemy. The Poles were taken by surprise, not
expecting an assault before next day. and I'M
derwent complete defeat The story goes on
to say that the spy was made prisoner and
brought to the generals presence for an order
for his shooting, but that on the contrary, Su-
varoff directed him to be set at liberty, with
thanks for his involuntary contribution to the
good fortune of the enterprise. In the art Of
hOodwinking an adversary SuvarOff had no su-
periOr.
The general enjoyed excellent health in the
field, the reward Of temperance, regular exer-
else, and hardihood OF habit. His lite was
simple. He rose at dawn, buckets of cold
water were thrown over his body, and he
dressed himself. At eight or nine In the even
Ing he dined on the same fare as his army
coarse or sour bread, broth or Cruel Of oatmeal
or barley, slices Of salt meat, and q scrap Of
cheese. HIS ordinary drink was q beer made
from fermented wheat Called by the Russians
kislichtschy,) and glass Of brandy at meals.
AS soon as he had dined he slept for two or three
hours in his chair, then woke to work and only
lay down for couple of hours before morning.
He usually performed his devotions after each
meal and at night when going to bed, before
an image Of st. Nicholas, Russias patron saint
Often he preferred the floor to camp cot.

Dr. Oswald, in Popular Science Monthly for June.
The summer air Of the highlands makes out
door life luxury, but the chief advantage of
the plan is this: The stimulus of pleasant pas
time enables man to begule himself into about
ten times as much exercise as he could stand In
the Turner-hall. The visitors of hygienic
gymnasium take their turn at the horizontal bar
as they would swallow the drugs of public
dispensary; they know that 1t Is q lesser evil
they know that the road to Styx Is the alterna-
tive they intend to come every day, but the
intOlerable tedium of the FRAMEWORK exercise
soon shakes that resolution The motive for
exertion Ia too abstract; 1t lacks the charm of
progressiveness and the stimulus of proxi-
mate, tangible and visible purpose. The sham
competition OF a regiment Of invalids under the
command OF turn-na0ster does not much sWeeten
the bitter broth; it Ia still FRAMEWORK, minus
the CLUB OF the jailer. and nine out of ten n.y.
genlc gymnasts will soon find or make pre-
text for disseminating their visits. How many
