ing them. There is, as German proverb
says, much honor in glass Of wine
which means that a gentle nature will
show much more in the way sought to
oblige than in the magnitude of the gift,
which may depend on the means of the
giver and not on his heartfelt wish to be
kind. A man may be able to give an
eagle as charity, but throw the gold
coin so as to avoid the touch of the needy
person, and, by humiliating him, diminish
the value of the gift 1t is given only to
few people to accompany the gift with a
warm, sympathetic look or smile, or kind
word, which viii do more than the gift
itself to console or comfort.-N 7. Led

the matter short by ordering the witness TO
be sworn by the uplifted hand.
Il am not surprised" said the Judge
that this witness did not kiss the book

moved some sage brush and soil and
found that an aged Pinte Indian, known

he had been buried alive by his squaw,
who had been left to take care of him

Of the Indian, who was an invalid, con-

Not every day does one meet with a

CouId Not Promote Him.


It is well known that Charles XII of
Sweden was man who united to an in
vincible obstinacy restless energy and
indomitable valor 1t is not SO VII
known, however, that he was equally
distinguished for his love of truth His
biographer. Lundblad, tells the following
anecdote Of this last characteristic of his
royal hero:
The king had issued most stringent
orders against duelling, and major who
had disobeyed. and had killed his adver-
sary in a so called affair of honor, fled
the country.
During the absence of the monarch in
Turkey, however, he returned to his
native land, and again received an APP
pointment in the Swedish army.
When Charles escaped from captivity
and resumed command of his troops, he
met the major by chance, and recognized
him at once. He said nothing. however,
for he had need of efficient officers. A
short time afterward the major distin-
guished himself in battle, and Charles
desired to promote him, but was un-
willing to let the officer suppose that he
had not been recognized.
One day. when reviewing his troops,
he suddenly approached the major, and
put the question to him if he were not
the man who had killed a comrade in
duel.
The poor fellow, throwninto confusion
by the sudden accusation, denied his
guilt, whereupon the king turned to his
general and said. 1t is too bad! The man
lies. and can't reward him.
