How Sheridan Became a Soldier.

When Phil Sheridan was is years
old, the congressman of his district,
in Perry county, o., the place Of
Phil's birth, had an elephant on his
hands in the shape of West Point
cadetship to give away. The Demo
cratic chairmen of five counties each
had applicants to urge, and to each
the congressman was under equal
obligations. But to recognize one
was to offend the other four. One
day the congressman was walking
along the country road near Somer-
set, revolving the problem in his
mind, when he met Farmer Sheri-
dan, with whom he was slightly &C
quainted.
Good morning, congressman, {"
said Mr.. Sheridan.
Good morning." was the reply.
When he had gone few PAGES, he
stopped suddenly and called out:
by the way, Mr.. Sheridan, how
many boys have youT
Il have two fine boys, your hon
or, was the reply, mike and Phil"
How would you like to have one
of them sent to West Point for a
military education at the govern
ment's expense2"
well, replied Mr.. Sheridan slow
ly, "they are both a help, but 1
wouldn't mind"
"All right, which one shall takel"
Depends, was the reply. Mikes
the smartest, but if you want a fight
er l reckon Phil's the one you want. "
And that was how Phil Sheridan
got an education at West Point

The Sympathy of Boston Natives.

II think the residents of Boston
are the most obliging people in this
country to strangers within the city
gates" remarked a traveller in my
hearing the other day. II have been
in all the large coast and inland
cities, he continued, "but such uni
form courtesy as is met with in this
classic city l have never observed
elsewhere. This is particularly no
ticeable when a visitor, lost in the
twining and tortuous thoroughfares
of the central district Of the city, in
quires his way to a certain point
which he has vainly endeavored to
find by examining a pocket map of
the town. Invariably the person adj
dressed will take especial pains to
direct the stranger, and I have
known of numerous cases where they
have actually gone out of their way
to assist visitors.
In New York and Chicago, on the
other hand, a civil question as to the
location of street is GENERALLY met
with instructions hastily mumbled,
and the stranger knows about as
much when his informant has de-
parted as when he hesitatingly slack
ened his footsteps to hear with evil
dent symptoms of that tired feeling
the inquiry of the visitor. Boston

Conversation of "Great" People.

1t is an old story how an enthusi-
astic young girl, seeing Harriet Mar
tineau approached by Mrs. Somer-
vile, listened breathlessly to hear
what the two great women might
say to each other
Miss Martineau inquired of Mrs.
Somerville what she thought of the
expediency of turning a certain old
brown skirt inside out and upside
down to remodel it, and Mrs. Somer-
vile shouted into the deaf writer's
extended ear trumpet her advice to
turn it by all means-and that was
all.
After all, great people are much
like little people. They would not
be greater than they are and certain
ly would be much less likable if thew
were not. A hero who remains al
ways upon his pedestal inspires after
a time the suspicion that he might
cease to be hero if he ventured to
step down.-Youth's Companion.

WAS DUMB BUT TALKS NOW.

The Savannah Naws save: Last
week Miss Nellie Billiard was dumb,
to-day she talks fuently. The
cause of her being speechless was
cleft palate, a misfortune from
birh. Her friends are surprised
and delighted to hear her speak.
Her voice is clear and her words
are uttered distinctly. Her en-
barrassment because of her affliction
is gradually disappearing, and she is
happy in her newly found gift of
speech. This remarkable change
has been wrought by means of an
artificial palate obturator, made of
vulcanite and rubber. 1t was made
by prominent dentist of this city.
Formerly Miss Billiard experienced
great difficulty in swallowing. She
was dumb and her case was consid-
cred hopeless. The dentist learned
of her misfortune and after making
an examination Of the case, decided
to try an experiment, to enable her
to talk and swallow without difficult
ty. For several weeks he has work.
ed on the artificial palate obturator.
Last week it was completed. Miss
Billiard came on visit to her rela>
tive, Col. R. G. Cannon and she was
presented with the palate obtura tor
as free gift. 1t was adjusted in
her mouth and for tie first time in
her life she uttered a word. Like a
little child, she began to talk from
the simple words in common use
until to-day she converses freely
with her friends. Miss Billiard is
IL years of age, and is considered
pretty.
