An Anglo Indian officer, of the Bengal
Artillery, relates an anecdote of one Of
those soldiers who in military phrase are
known as malingcrers, but whom common
people would call shirks. A gunner,
named Ichabod Crabb, went to see the
hospital authorities on the subject of a
strange affection of the back, which COM

not if my life depended on it." AS there
was heavy gun-drilling going on at this
time, DIR. Triton formed his own opin-
ion of the case, and determined to let the
man work out his own cure. He ordered
Crabb's breakfast to be placed on high
cupboard in the wall, to reach which the
patient would have to stand erect. At
dinner-time the cook reported Crabb's
breakfast to be untouched. "Put his
dinner in the same place." commanded
DIR. Triton, and the treatment was con-
tinued throughout the day. The next
morning when the doctor called to Is e
his patient, he found that his prescrip-
ton had been cfiicacious. Crabb had
eaten his supper aud breakfast, and de-
clared himself fit for duty. "CupboaId
