A certain literary German who's
manner Of speaking was extremely de.
hberate, and who disapproved Of impet.
uosity Of any sort under any circum-
stances, hadan amusing experience in q
restaurant one day.
he was . well known figure among
the patrons Of this particular restau-
rant, a. he seldom dined anywhere else,
and he generally was served by Q waiter
who had become used to his way Of
speaking; but one day . new waiter
took his orde1 and brought his soup.
II cannot eat this soup, said the gen.
tleman slowly, not looking up from his
plate, after he had summoned the waiter
for the second time. The man seized
the offending dish before the customer
could finish the sentence, and vanished
with It he reappeared in Q moment
with another supply Of the same soup,
which he placed before the gentleman,
and then stood regarding him with an
anxious face, wondering what could Be
the reason the soup remained untasted.
II cannot eat this soup" again slowly
remarked the literary man.
"Why not Siri What b the matterG''
stammered the unhappy waiter. who had
been told he was serving an important
person.
II cannot eat this soup" said the lit
erary genius calmly for TIRE third time,
"because have not as yet been provided
with . spoon" And looking up TO catch
the expression Of relief on the walters
face. he indulged in the low chuchls
which was the only expression Of amuse-
ment to which ho ever gave way

In these days when the real soldiers Of
the war are growing few and fewer there
is marked increase of generals. The
ready acceptance of military titles by
men who never wore the blue is trif1e
surprising, So readily are they put on
that any general manager, general
superintendent or general passenger
agent becomes endowed with the glitter
ing prize. We are peace-loving people
and should at least try to keep down the
list of generals by bestowing the title
only on those who have served three
months in the militia or have viewed
without finching the awful carnage of g
battle cvclorama.
