One of the best of Sam Smalrs war
stories is this: when things were
hot around Atlanta, Captain Evan
Howell, received an order to reconnoit-
er across the Chattahoochec river and
ascertain if the Federal troops had re-
tired. The night was black as ink.
He read the order to his men, but was
surprised to find them all disqualified
for the risky job. One couldn't swim,
another had rheumatism, still another
always took cramps in the water, and
50 it went down the whole line. But
the order had to be obeyed. So Howell
plunged into the river and made for
the other side. He was remarkably
good swimmer, and felt sure he was
making no noise, vet he became SO
frightened that each stroke seemed to
him to arouse the whole Federal camp.
Now and then lightning-bug appeared
and, confident that it was q Yankee
musket, he ducked under water. By
and by he got SO near the shore he
could wade, and he was creeping along
40 cautiously as possible, his teeth
chattering with fear, when Of sudden
he struck against an old tree that had
fallen into the river. just then huge
bull-frog gave sonorous blurt and
jumped into the river. Unable to re-
tain his self-possession any longer
Howell threw up both hands and yelled
in terror. 81 surrender. surrender" :"
When he finally reached the camp not
Yankee could be seen, but smol-
dering fire gave evidence that they had
suddenly decamped. "-Ghicago Herald.

Soldering Rings.

There are various ways of soldering
stone set rings, but a specialist says the
following method is rs good as any:
Take tissue paper and tear it into strips
about three inches wide. Twist the
strips into ropes and, having made
them very wet, wrap the stone with
them, passing them around the stone
and through the ring until the centre
Of the ring is little more than hall
full of paper, and always winding very
close. Then fasten the ring upon char
coal. allowing the stone to project over
the edge of the charcoal. Solder very
quickly. The paper will prevent OK
idization Of the part Of the ring it COW
ers besides protecting the stone.
