What looked at the time like close
call for Ingersoll occurred six or seven
years ago in New York, when he and
the gifted Daniel Dougherty were array
ed against each other in divorce case
before Judge Barrett. Dougherty was
for the husband. He closed his case in
this way:
Through all this dreadful case, this
struggle for what should be to her many
thousand times dearer than life, has a
veil mantled that beautiful face? Has
one tear rolled down those cheeks? Has
there been single blush on that face?
Not tear! Not blush ~ He shook his
fist at Ingersoll as he said this.
"Do you state that as fact?" asked
the infidel.

TO AN OLD VIOLIN.
Could it but speak, what strange and moving

Could it but speak, what strange and moving
stories,
Wat tales Of Joy and grief it would unfold,
OF faded beauty and forgotten glories,
OF love and sorrow in the days of oldi
Perchance it played the grave and stately
measure
While powdered couples trod the minuet;
Perhaps it was beggar's only pleasure
Or helped a prince his trouble to forget.
All, violin, we dream and wonder vainly
Time with the sweet June roses never stays.
The past is dead. We cannot learn more plainly
The buried history of forgotten days.
Yet, as faint and odorous sweetness fingers
With faded petals, though their bloom be fled,
So, charmed anew by sympathetic fingers,
You bring haunting memory of the dead.
So, as of old, you speak in tenderest fashion,
Mellow with memories of unseen years,
To raise our minds from worldly care and pas
sion
And stir the thoughts that lie so close to
tears.

Injuries From Horses,

An old cavalryman says that horse
will never step on man Intentionally.
It is standing order in the English
cavalry that, should a man become dis
mounted, he must lie down and keep
perfectly still If he does SO, the entire
troop will pass over him without his be-
ing injured. A horse notices where he is
going, and is on the lookout for firm
foundation to put his foot on. It is an
instinct with him, therefore, to step
over q PROSTATE man. The injuries
caused to human beings by runaway
horse are nearly always inflicted by the
animal knocking them down, and not
by his stepping on them. Boston Her
