4 THE TORTURE OF THIRST.
ONE WHO HAS SUFFERED IT TELLS OF
HOW HE FELT AT THE TINE.

Rocky Mountain News: NO one
can conceive the torture of a man who
suffers from real thirst" said S. r.

panions was doing a little prospect

''One morning | made up my mind
to try a range of hills about thirty
miles away, across what seemed to be
a well verdured valley, and my chums

a wild goose chase, said good-by and

miles when | came to desert land.
There was not stalk of vegetation in

lava and scoria that had rotted under
the suns of a thousand centuries. |

more than a few miles across, and as
there was haze hanging over it /

demons of pain IN the universe seem

During the English war with China
in 1912 naval lieutenant was sent
ashore from his ship one morning tc
bring off some guns from a captured
I battery. He started before breakfast
and on getting ashore with his crew he
made a tire and all hands proceeded tc
forage for something to cook.
One of the men, noticing a Iarge-bore
gun of peculiar shape, looked into il
out of curiosity and to his delight found
| inside a hen with a brood of well-grown
chickens. OF course no time was lost in
securing them.
A fine blaze had already been raised
by dragging close together and setting
fire to the gun carriages. and, as the
morning was cool, the lieutenant
perched astride one of the guns. which
was already steaming with heat
Presently he heard a queer rumbling
inside the piece. Perhaps there was a
hen in this gun also. He lay upon it
and peeped over the edge into the muz-
zle. To his horror he discovered that
the gun was crammed almost to the
mouth with powder and grape.
