An Honest Sergeant.

A military story comes from Ireland.
4 noncommissioned officer, entering q
barrack cato in Dublin, was mistaken
by the fresh 0ne' on sentry so, who
Immediately saiuted him. The noncom-
missioned officer, unaware that his colo
mel was inst behind, returned the
salute, thing Let permissible under
the circumstances Arrived at his quar-
tsrs, he was surprised to find an order
for him to attend before the colonel.
On presenting himself he was asked
how he came to return the salute, know
ing full we'll he was not entitled to It.
Not in the least embarrassed. be
promptly answered, "Sir, always re-
turn everything am not entitled to. !"
The colonel, taken aback by his ready
wit, laughingly dismissed him.

Could Nos Make Tibet.

Mr.. Wilson relates an amusing story
Of an officer who determined to enter
Chinese Tibet by stratagem. This OIL
Ger managed to cross the frontier at
night, and so escaped the frontier guard
Next day, however, while he was jour
neying deeper into Tibet the Ilbetan
soldiers overlook him and informed him
that as the country was unsafe, because
Of robbers, they would go with him III
order to protect him, to which arrange
ment the traveller was compelled to
agree. In ii few hours they came to
river, which was crossed by rope
bridge. TIE Tibotans passed over first
in order tossshow that the bridge was
safe, and then the officer got into tho
basket and was pulled along by the lib
etans. Suddenly, however, they ceased
pulling and left the Eng lishman hang
ing IL midair above the rushing torrent
In vain the traveller shouted to the
Iibetans to pull They merely smokes
and nodded their heads. Tie hours pass
ed, and still the officer hung above thu
torrent. At last the Tibetans agreed to
pull him back if be would promise IT,
leave Tibet Immediately. This OF

plenty Of timo at meals. Do not walk
right after meal. Rest well before the
noon and evening meals. Drink all you
desire of good water during the tramp,
but sparingly at meals Or just before
eating. Good digestion is as important
to good walking as it is necessary for
good work of any kind. AS to foods, a
man has to take OH his tramp what is
set before him. It will generally be
nourishing enough if he will be careful
to eat it when not tired and to eat it
slowly. At the end of each day take a
sponge or towel bath OF a dry rub down.

INCAPABLE OF IMPERsoNALITY.
An Alleged Failing That Has Deferred
Woman's Emancipation.

An Alleged Failing That Has Deferred
Woman's Emancipation.
The bond of fellowship which exists
between man and man simply by virtue
Of common sex is entirely absent be-
tween woman and woman. 1t is, in
fact, replaced by q fundamental antago-
nism, u vague enmity which renders
the general attitude Of feminine crea-
ture toward her kind essentially differ
ent from that of the male creature in
identical relations. In individual cases
this feeling is counteracted by affection
or by sympathy, but apart from person.
al sentiment it remains, severing every
living woman from the rest Of her sex.
To great extent this arises from wom-
ans incapacity for impersonal feeling or
abstract emotion. In life's fray she
fights either for her own hand or, more
often, for some one man or woman
whom she loves, but rarely for the vel
fare Of her sex at large.
Were it not for this strange lack Of hui
manity in her nature, the emancipation
of woman would not have been SO griev-
ously retarded II the few women who
suffered aforetime under the restrictions
which hedged in their liberty had been
able to count on the sympathy and CO.
operation Of all women, the time Of
their subjugation would have been enor-
mously abbreviated. AS it was, the first
seekers after freedom met with more
opposition from their own sex than they
did from the other nor, indeed, do they
faro better today. Enormous changes
in their social status were effected by
all inconsiderable minority of women
brave enough and logical enough to i'm
press the male powers that be with the
justice Of their demands. But for their
courage they received no sympathy and
for their success not one word of thanks
nothing, in fact, but execration from
the huge inert feminine mass in whose
service their strength was spent.
