Politics Too Much For Him.

A lady on Fifth Avenue, New York,
quickly summoned a doctor:
ooh, doctor, my husband is nearly
lead. He attended caucus last night.
He made four speeches and promise
o be with his fellow citizens again to-
lay. But oh, doctor, he looks nearly
dead"
Has he been in politics long7"
40, only last year. He worked
hard forsJames McCaulay's election"
He will get well, madam! He has
4 stomach for any disease, if he
worked for him"
Political life, of short or long dura-
ton, is very exhausting, as it is evi.
dent from the great mortality which
prevails amongpublie men. Elk. Z. s..
Senator b. X. Bruce, who has been
long in public life, says:

surprised way, remarkins:
"a Why Senator, how well you look

The doctor uttered an incredulous
reply, when the Senator frankly told
hum, in answer TO an inquiry, that it
was Warmers sale cure which accom-
plistied Tor him what the profession
had failed to do. Senator Bruce says
his friends are very much astonished at

An Germany" Cavalry Horse.

Just see those boys whipping that
horse" said an old cavalryman the
other day; its a shame to misuse an
animal SO; but some horses are mighty
ornary, that's a fact. Reminds me of
that Nick | rode when ! was a recruit.
"Nick joined the regiment before /
did, and always seemed to think that
accident entitled him to be my mas
ter, while | wanted to be his master.
We never got through arguing about
it. Sometimes he had the best of it;
sometimes | had. Honors were easy
between us. When Nick couldn't have
his own way he'd end up on his hind
legs and pretend he was in a circus.
Twas a whole circus for me, too.
"One morning III troops went for
ward to drive in the enemy's pickets.
We whipped our sabers, charged down
through the fog and mud, yelling like a
band of Apache scalp hunters and
found-nothing. We wheeled out Of
the road into q field, cOuntermarched,
then halted for the other companies to
come up. We looked to each other
and began to laugh in a sheepish kind

feet-but only for an instant. He'd

ambition wasn't satisfied, and
he took a fresh start, Every

his spurs when he discovered Nick 5
iron-shod hoofs close to his head, fly

ClutChed his name, but dare not pull
on the bride lest the brute should fall
backward and drive the pommel otthe
saddle through my ribs. Knocking
him on the head with the saber hlIt
only seemed to inspire him with new
ideas. The whole squadron was in
wild confusion. At that moment
Nick spied the captain and made for
him with both feet andh his mouth wide
open. The captain swore, ordered
him of, half drew his revolverto shoot
the b~east-then clapped spurs TO his
charger and lit out. The whole com
pany had been defeated, captain in
cluded-and Nick was happy. His
ewes shone with the light OF n con
queror as another trooper seized his
bride and towed us back to our place.

Kilpatrick's Fun.

On our way to Fredericksburg, IN
1862, writes a soldier in the Missouri
Republican, wehad encampedfor a day
and the afternoon our attention
was attracted by the music OF band IN
agrove only a half a mile away, which
kept playing one lively air for so long
q time that some few of us proposed
to 90 over and see what the fun was
about. AT this time Fitzpatrick was
lieutelant-colonel OF the Harm hgho
cavalry" afterward called by preln..
diced infantry "Kilpatrlck's thieves. 70
When we reached the grove a very
funny sight greeted us. The band was
still playing, but nearly exhausted
Kilpatrick, elevated by standing ON a
barrel head, was shouting directions
to at least so darkey men, women
and children, old and young who
were dancing q breakdown in true var

hand. hut in vain. KIP shouted
back, "Blay Till you Ntai Nv
out" then yelled to thedarkies, Keep
il up, boys and girls; you will beat
that band sure"
Ave. there stood the man who was
afterward celebrated in history as Gen
Kirkpatrick, the raider, prompting the
most amusing dance ever witnessed.
No modern minstrel troupe "a ever
eoualed it. His officers were Just as
he was, and one OF them passed
around the hat, to which tho specta-
tors responded literally; then, just as
the band blew a last and dismal piast,

Diet i'm Later Life.

1t is during the latter third OF his
career that the softer and lighterfoods,
such as well.cOoked cereals, some light
mixed animal and vegetable soups,
and also fish, for which teeth are bare
w necessary, are particularly valuable
and appropriate, And the man with
imperfect teeth who conforms to
natures demand of mild, non-stimu-
latinc dietary in advanced years will
mostly be blessed with a better di-
gestion and sounder health than the
man who, thanks to his artificial
machinery, can eat and does eat as
much flesh in quantity and variety as
he did in the days OF his youth. Far
be il from me to under-value the truly
artistic achievements of a clever and
experienced dental surgeon, OF the
comfort he affords. By all means let
MS have recourse to his aid when our
natural teeth fail, for the purpose OF
vocal articulation, to say nothing oil
their relation to personal appearance
on such grounds the artificial substi.
tutes rank among the necessar Is OF
life in q civilized community. Only let
IL be understood that the chief end OF
teeth. so far as mastication is con-
cerned, has in advancing age been toa
great extent accomplished, and that
thew are now mainly %usefulfor thepur-
pose lust named. But | cannot help
adding that there are some groundsf for
the beliefthat those who havethrough-
out life from their earliest years con-
sumed little or no flesh, but havelived
on a diet chiefly or wholly vegetarian,
will be found TO have preserved their
teeth longer than those who have al.
ways made flesh a prominent part OF
their daily food.

The wine was drunk in silence except
for the usual indistinct mumbling.
The old mans eyes softened; his
thoughts went back a generation, while
to Dick the golden fluid conjured up
visions of passionate bliss, in which a
pair of blue eyes and golden head fig
