From the Fail Mall Gazette.
I was talking with q treasury official on
the subject OF forgery. 'Did il ever occur
to you,' said the official. ''that a forRer
has half his work done when he can get
hold of the identical pen with which the
owner of the signature habitually writes :?
A great many men, bank presidents and
the like, use the same pen for their names
emily for q year or two without change. A
pen that has been used by a man i'm writ
ing his name hundreds OF times, and
never used for anything else, will almost
write the name of itself. 1t gets imbued
with the spirit of the signature. In the
hands of a fairly good forRer il will pre-
serve the characteristics of the original.
The reason for thisi is that the point of the
pen has been ground down in u peculiar
way, from being used always by the same
hand and for the same combination of
letters. 1t would splutter il held at "a
wrong angle or forced ON lines against its

Brave Surgeons.

The coolest courage in time Of war
is not always shown by the officer or
soldier. The surgeon and ambulance
nurse carry on their work of saving
life as undismayed in the midst of shot
and shell as the men whose work it is
to take it.
An anecdote is often told by the sea-
faring folk who live on the shores of
Buzzard's Bay, of certain DR.. Eben-
ezer Swift, who went from among them
to serve IL the Mexican war. He was
Surgeon Gen. Kearney's division IN
der Gen. Scott through all the battles
of the campaign.
During the battle of Molino del Rey,
he was so busily occupied with the
wounded that he did not perceive that
the American lines had fallen back,
and that he was left exposed to a rak-
ing fire from the enemy.
Gen. Worth, passing, ordered hin.
sharply to fall back, adding "YOu
are drawing the fire from ChapuL
tepec."
The busy Doctor glanced up at the
clouds of smoke and dust, and an
swered, absently:
"In a moment, sir. After another
smputation."

American surgeons who volunteered
their services to the Russian army
during the war of the Crimea. They
soon were Disguised with the poverty
and the savage butcheries on both
sides; but In every battle they were in
the thickest Of the fight, dragging out
the wounded and aiding them, al
though they were repeatedly warned
to fall back to the surgeons tents In
the rear.
During the final battle before Sebas-
tOpo1, the Russian officers were IN
censed at seeing these young fellows
busy at their work In the most exposed
part of the field. An orderly was sent
TO them with an angry message He
galloped up, and, with a voIIey of
Oaths. demanded, as from the com
handing officer, what they were there
for?"
One of them, covered with blood
looked up with a smile.
"Teu the General, " said ne Shat we
are here to remind the world Of civiIizs
alton IN the midst Of this brutality"
