His Legs We're safo.

M. Courthouse, the French savant,
served in Napoleon,s army, and was pres
ent at many engagements. at the battle
of Wagram, in 1909, he was in the heat
of the fray. The ranks around him had
been terribly thinned by shot, and at
sunset he was nearly isolated. While
reloading his musket he was shot down
by cannon ball. His impression was
that the ball had passed through his legs
below his knees, completely severing
them, for he suddenly sank down, short.
ened, as he believed, to the extent of
about foot in measurement. The trunk
of the body fell backward on the ground,
and the mans senses were paralyzed by
the shock. Thus he lay, motionless,
among the wounded and dead, all night,
not daring to move, when consciousness
partially returned, lest the loss OF blood
should be fatally increased. That he felt
no pain he attributed to the stunning
effect of the shock on his nervous system,
and his faculties were still too numb to
reason Why he had not bled to death:
AT early dawn he was aroused by one Of
the medical staff, who came round to
help the wounded. "What's the matter
with you, my good fellow 2" said the
surgeon. "Ah touch me tenderly, doc.
tor,o replied NJ. Boutibouse, cannon
bali has carried off both my legs" The
surgeon examined the limbs referred to,
and then giving him good shake, said
with loud laug b, "Get up with you
there's nothing the matter with your
legsp' M. Boutibouse sprang up in utter
asfonishment, and stood firmly on the
legs which he had thought lost forever.

your eyes. We stopped to rest; a small
window was at hand; We looked down
into the interior of the tower. 1t was
like a deep round shaft that had been
sunk slantwise; there was just enough
slant to it to be unpleasant. We trudged
on and on, and looked again. The tower
was beginning to move a little; we both
saw it and felt it. Tie walls sagged very
