during leave of absence he had come

bent it and noticed that. instead of
springing back when the pressure was
taken off, it gradually returned to it's

forged from an untold number of
steel rings welded together like old
Damascus blades. When asked about
it he told curious tale.

Harrison will also, like Cleveland, care
very little for what is set before him on the
table. Arthur was the most epicurcan of
all our Presidents, and he had some skill as
a coucocter of viands and could cook a
plank shad as well as Bayard cooks a terra
pin. But Gen. Harrison cares only for
plain food, and if his wishes and likes are
consulted it is safe to say that occasionally
in the winter there will be buckwheat
cakes and maple syrup. Like Garfield, Har-
rison is also fond of eggs and bacon for
breakfast.
